Daddy! Come Home for Dinner! - Chapter 493
Chapter 493: Chapter 493: Don’t Force Yourself Anymore (2 Chapters Combined)
“The recipe for Yellow Croaker in Soup is already there, and I was wondering how to make it with my personal touch. Just like Chef Greene’s Yellow Croaker in Soup, which has always been unsurpassed because it has his own signature. I also need to create my own signature. Finally, I made this dish now.”
“But if I didn’t try Chef Greene’s cuisine and lack that foundation, this dish might be lacking a lot,” Cindy said.
It was true that she had tasted Michael Greene’s cuisine at Quire.
It was better to say it openly.
Better than Michael Greene thinking about it and feeling uncomfortable.
“So are you imitating Chef Greene’s cuisine?” Iris Doone suddenly spoke up from the side.
Everyone looked at Iris.
Cindy laughed.
Iris really knew how to get attention.
The judges didn’t even review her cuisine that much, which obviously showed they were not very satisfied with it.
Iris’s cuisine was delicious, but it had no distinctive feature.
Just like an article full of flowery language.
It sounded beautiful and lovely to read, but what did it say?
After reading it, you find out it didn’t say anything.
The whole article was hollow.
Iris’s cuisine was like that too.
Iris still remembered the humiliation from the last competition.
The judges said she imitated Cindy.
And this time, Cindy directly made Michael Greene’s signboard dish.
Moreover, Cindy admitted it herself, she went to try Michael Greene’s cuisine and then went back to improve it.
Isn’t this imitating Michael Greene?
In the last competition, she made different dishes than Cindy’s.
Why did the judges criticize her last time, but not Cindy this time?
Hunter Clarke gave Iris a mocking glance.
It seemed Iris was really upset.
Witnessing the judges give high praise to Cindy’s cuisine, she knew she couldn’t win.
So she didn’t care about face and played this game directly.
Looking at it now, it was indeed possible that Cindy had said Iris deliberately ruined her ingredients before.
Iris could do it when she got upset.
At this time, Michael Greene said, “If you put it that way, I’m imitating too.”
“Yellow Croaker in Soup is a traditional dish with a long history. It’s not my own creation. I was just fortunate that it got the recognition of many diners and became my signboard dish. To be honest, I’m a bit embarrassed about it since I didn’t invent it.”
“And the Yellow Croaker in Soup that Cindy has researched now is completely different from mine. In terms of taste, our cuisines are two different styles.” Michael Greene said, “But I think Cindy’s dish is better than mine.”
This evaluation was really high!
The industry recognized that Michael Greene’s Yellow Croaker in Soup had reached the pinnacle and no one could surpass it.
But now, Michael Greene said that Cindy’s dish was better!
People couldn’t help but wonder how good Cindy’s would taste.
“It must be so delicious, I really want to taste it.”
“Heh! I haven’t even been to try Michael Greene’s yet. Michelin three-star restaurant, one reason is that it’s too expensive, and the other is that you can’t book a table. I just don’t know how to taste Cindy’s, she doesn’t open a restaurant.”
“I wonder if Cindy will make a video tutorial for this?” Cindy’s fan asked.
“Even if she does, we won’t be able to! It’s so complicated. I searched the recipe for Yellow Croaker in Soup online, there are so many ingredients and it’s quite complex. Not to mention Cindy’s advanced version, even the original version is hard for ordinary people to replicate. Now, there are very few people who can actually make this dish.”
“But Michael Greene is really generous. To openly say that he was surpassed, and by a junior, without any unwillingness.”
“Yes, regardless of whether it’s because he’s on camera or not, at least he is showing himself to be very generous.”
“Chef Greene, I’m a fan now!”
“Iris Doone is really disgusting! Now I have a reason to believe that Cindy was right, Iris deliberately ruined her ingredients.”
“As a result, Cindy didn’t even use shark fin, so the damage was all done in vain. Making such a foolish move does match Iris.”
“Yes, this is being broadcast live, and she can still provoke people like this publicly, making her actions too ugly.”
“It shows that she is really desperate. Seeing the judges’ high evaluation of Cindy, there’s no doubt that Cindy will win. She knows it too, so she is being driven to desperation, even if she knows it’s inappropriate, she is like a cornered dog, trying to splash dirty water on Cindy to succeed.”
“Heh! The judges said there’s no problem with Cindy’s dish. Even Michael Greene said there’s no problem; I don’t know what else Iris has to say.”
As Rosaline Parker heard Iris’s desperate slander, her impression of Iris plummeted to rock bottom.
Rosaline had a bad temper and couldn’t tolerate things she disliked. When she lost her temper, she didn’t give anyone any face.
At this moment, she directly spoke to Iris without politeness, “In this round, although your cuisine is like an article of flowery language, it’s empty and hollow, looking good and gorgeous, but actually devoid of substance. I can still see that you want to make progress and want to achieve something.”
“It’s good to have that intention, so I didn’t say my review too harshly, wanting you to continue to progress and not discourage you. But now, it seems that I didn’t make myself clear enough.”
“Cindy’s dish is what’s called cuisine, sincerity, and creativity. The recipe is here, it’s not something that you can’t use because I used it, but you need to stand out and have your own stuff in it.”
“It doesn’t have to be in such an obvious place for you to see the difference; it could be like this dish, adding popping bubbles to enhance the layers of taste. Or it could be changing the ratio of seasoning in the recipe, or adding seasonings or ingredients not in the recipe.”
“Instead of just piling up a bunch of ingredients that can release delicious flavors, giving it a different name, and calling it innovation.” Rosaline said very impolitely.
Iris’s face turned red, and her face burned with embarrassment.
Especially since Cindy was standing right next to her.
Cindy was praised while she was criticized so badly.
“I think your current strength is not suitable for the future competitions. Even if you continue, your ability won’t be enough to go further,” Hunter Clarke said, “You should go back and continue to improve yourself, and speak only when your strength is enough.”
“Of course, if your strength is here and no matter how hard you try, you can’t improve, that’s probably a talent issue, so don’t force yourself,” Hunter Clarke added.
“Pfft!” In the barrage, the netizens laughed and typed, “I didn’t expect Chef Clarke’s mouth to be so poisonous!”
