Bob had quite a good impression of Brooke.
It was because the jambalaya that he had been longing for was made by Brooke’s daughter.
“I think…” Brooke sized up the contestants.
His eyes swept over the contestants one group after another. Suddenly, his pupils constricted, and he was very surprised.
Because among the contestants, he saw Jon!
He was the kitchen helper of Troon Restaurant?!
Brooke’s heart stirred.
After all, this was a top-notch cooking competition in Atlantis!
The contestants who could stand here, even if they were kitchen helpers, were all top-notch chefs in Atlantis.
However, Jon was only a high school student, and he was already standing on such a high stage.
Thinking back to yesterday, Jon’s superb knife skills shocked Brooke.
Moreover, his daughter, Corolla, also said that she wasn’t the one who made the jambalayas yesterday. Instead, it was Jon who made them.
For a moment, Brooke became interested in Jon.
“I think that maybe Troon Restaurant will surprise us.”
“Troon Restaurant?” Bob raised his eyebrows, somewhat surprised by Brooke’s words.
Although Troon Restaurant became popular on fire recently and was very well-known among the public. But among the ten restaurants, it seemed a little unremarkable.
Because Troon Restaurant had only been popular for a few years. Compared to other restaurants, it still lacked experience and foundation.
In this kind of competition, Troon Restaurant seemed a little immature.
So, when Bob heard Brooke’s words, he was a little surprised.
“I also think highly of Troon Restaurant.” Wayne said slowly from his seat.
“The young man named Jon is a little interesting.”
“I was lucky enough to taste the red wine that he personally made. It’s very good.”
When Brooke, Olivia, and Alice heard this, they were stunned.
Although they hadn’t had much contact with Wayne. They knew that Wayne was a wealthy man with an indifferent personality.
He didn’t care about many things and was aloof.
Because his vision and standard were very high, ordinary things couldn’t cause any ripples in his heart.
There were very few people who could catch his eye.
But now, he actually gave such a high evaluation to Jon. Interesting, very good.
For a moment, the judges were all interested in the Troon Restaurant group.
“It turns out that the wine everyone is talking about is made by Jon.”
“I really didn’t expect him to achieve such achievements at such a young age!” Alice couldn’t help but sigh.
Brooke smiled and said, “I’m looking forward to their wonderful performance.”
“In that case, today’s game will be interesting. I’m looking forward to it.” Bob nodded.
On the stage.
All the contestants from the top ten restaurants have arrived.
They took out various styles of backpacks, there were all kinds of knives in them.
Some knives are used to cut vegetables, some knives are used to cut beef, and some knives are used to cut seafood.
As a professional chef, they would prepare all kinds of knives.
To them, their hands and knives were their most important properties, more than anything else.
And at the competition venue, the organizers didn’t prepare knifes for them, because every chef had their own knives that they brought along.
Louis also took out rows and rows of neat knives of different lengths. They were well prepared.
“Jon, I’ll leave the heavy responsibility of cutting vegetables to you.” Louis said as she held the knives.
“No problem.” Jon nodded. He was not picky in choosing the knives, nor did he have any preference for the knives.
As his [ Culinary ] level increased, any knife would become easy for him to handle.
Cutting vegetables was a simple task.
“Sandy, help me wash the vegetables and arrange the dishes.”
“Okay, Louis.” Sandy nodded and began to wear clean white gloves. After Jon’s guidance last time, Sandy had a new understanding of arranging the dishes.
Arranging the dishes and cutting vegetables were very important to a delicacy.
But the most important thing was cooking.
Jon and Sandy only took some easy tasks. The real problem was the cooking. Whether or not the flavors of the ingredients could be fully developed depended on the cooking technique.
This was also the part that tested a chef’s culinary skills the most.
Because no matter how well you cut the vegetables, how beautifully you set up the dishes, it wouldn’t matter if the dish did not taste good.
The cooking competition was about comparing the taste of the dishes cooked by different contestants after all.
While all the contestants and guests were preparing.
The audience also expressed their opinions.
“The cooking competition this time is really good!”
“What do you mean by ‘cooking’? I’m here for my Alice!”
“We support Olivia, the best in the world!”
“That Mitchell is so handsome. I heard that he is Olivia’s student?”
“The student of Olivia, the goddess of cooking? If that’s the case, Mitchell has a great chance of winning!”
“That’s hard to say. The other nine restaurants have also sent their top chefs.”
“Those old masters are all experienced and skilled with knives. The dishes they cook are the best in the world. If we really want to determine the winner from them, it will be too difficult!”
“Yeah, this competition has gathered a group of top masters. This competition will definitely be exciting!”
Most of the audience were fans who came to see Olivia and Alice.
However, there were also a small number of cooking enthusiasts who were seriously analyzing the competition.
The top ten restaurants were all the most popular restaurants in Atlantis, and their reputations were extremely good. If they wanted to rank these people, it would be too difficult.
“Did you notice that the other restaurants sent middle-aged people? Because they cooked for a long time and had a lot of life experience, they are very good.”
“Even for Mitchell, although he is young, he is chef Oli’s student. His culinary skill is obviously good, and the two people who helped him are also very experienced chefs.”
“Only Troon Restaurant sent three young people?!”
“Of the three young people, one of them is Louis. I can understand it because Louis started Troon Restaurant and brought many attentions to the restaurant. She has the ability to do so.”
“But the two helpers are a bit ridiculous, right? They are too young! They look like they are only high school students!”
“Yeah, the representatives sent by the other restaurants are all experienced chefs. Why did Louis arrange for two students?”
“They’re not here to compete, they’re here to play, right?”
“Maybe they know that Troon Restaurant won’t get any rankings in this competition, so they arranged for two students. That way, even if they lose, it won’t be shameful, right?”
“I think so too!”
In the crowd, there was a man sitting.
It was Aidan, Louis’s father.
He had arrived at the venue!
Although the current Aidan had already jumped out of the food circle and become an entrepreneur and a businessman.
But no matter what, he was still a chef before, so he was especially concerned about Troon Restaurant.
Most importantly, this was his daughter’s first time participating in such a competition. As a father, how could he be absent?
After purchasing the ticket, he arrived at the venue early.
He was prepared to cheer for Troon Restaurant.
In the end, before he could cheer for Troon Restaurant, he was almost angered to death.
What were these people saying?
Troon Restaurant couldn’t get a place? Choosing two students so that they would not lose face?
“You guys are talking nonsense! I can tell you straight away that Troon Restaurant is the restaurant with the highest chance of winning!”
