" Then here comes the question. Should I make my own food or go out to eat?" Lin Ye rubbed his chin. If this was his previous life, he would definitely cook for himself without hesitation. After all, he was the best chef in his previous world, and no one could cook better than him. However, it was different in this world. There were chefs in this world who were as good as him, or even better than him.
"Good! I've decided. Let's go out and eat!" Lin Ye happily took out the Host's wallet." Let me see how much money you have.”
"Uh, 21,000 yen. Although it looks like a lot, it doesn't seem to be enough for a meal in a high-class restaurant!”Lin Ye scratched his head in frustration." Do I still have to cook for myself after coming to this world? It can't be…"
"Forget it, 20,000 it is. Let's find an ordinary small shop to test the waters. Speaking of which, the place where the Host lives doesn't seem to have any high-class restaurants…"
Although the original owner lived in Tokyo, it was in the Xiacheng District of Tokyo. It was not bustling here, and the buildings were relatively old. The original owner also came here to rent a house for cheap. After all, in a big city like Tokyo, the house prices were ridiculously high. The original owner, an orphan, did not have much money.
Lin Ye stood in front of the sink in the bathroom and looked at his handsome face in the mirror. He was quite handsome when he was young. After tidying up a little, Lin Ye left.
"Yes... " I remember there's a food street in this direction," Lin Ye walked towards the restaurant in the Host's memory. He was starving. After all, he hadn't eaten a single grain of rice for a day and a night, and he only drank a glass of water. His legs were already weak.
"Xingping Public Restaurant?" Lin Ye frowned." That name sounds familiar. I remember it's the main character's restaurant in the game 'Spirit of Food Pole'? Forget it, whatever. It was more important to fill his stomach.”
It was past four in the afternoon, so it wasn't lunchtime, so there weren't many people on the food street. There weren't any customers in the restaurant either. Lin Ye walked straight in." Is the boss in?"”
"Ah, there's actually a guest at this time?”A young man's voice came from behind the curtain." Coming, coming, wait a moment!”
A red-haired young man lifted the curtain and walked out." Guest, do you want to eat?”
" Yeah." Lin Ye nodded." Are you the head chef?”
"Ah, that's right. I'm the head chef of Yukihira Restaurant!”The red-haired youth was inexplicably happy.
" Is this the main character of Food War? I think his name is Yukihira." Lin Ye raised his eyebrows." Then what's your specialty?"”
" Please take a look at this menu." Yukihira pointed at the menu on the wall and said confidently," As long as it's on the menu, it's all my specialty!"”
"Oh?" Lin Ye looked at the red-haired teenager and turned to look at the menu. Although they were all common dishes, there were a few dishes that tested his culinary skills." Then I'll order. One salt-grilled eel, one snapper sashimi, and finally, one special curry rice.”
"Alright!" Cold sweat broke out on Shouma's forehead. This black-haired teenager who looked to be only 15 or 16 years old was unusually crafty when ordering dishes.
The first dish was salt-grilled eel. This dish tested the heat. If the heat was too light, the flavor would not be strong enough. If the heat was too heavy, it would easily produce bitterness.
The second dish was snapper sashimi. Unlike tuna, snapper, which was a white-bodied fish, usually needed to be cut thinly because of its tough meat. This tested the chef's knife skills. Once the cut was not good enough, it would have a great impact on the taste.
The third dish was the special curry rice. This dish seemed simple, but it tested the combination of seasoning and spices. Compared to Indian curry, the improved Japanese curry was not as heavy, but the flavor was stronger. If the spices were not well matched, the characteristics of Japanese curry would be lost.
After ordering, Lin Ye sat at the dining table and looked around the restaurant in boredom. It was an ordinary restaurant. The decoration wasn't luxurious, but it was very clean. There was no oil on the table, and there was no smell in the hall. As far as the environment was concerned, it was good!
The red-haired young man, Yukihira Chuang, started to get busy in the kitchen. Although it wasn't dinner time yet, satisfying the customers was the purpose of Yukihira Restaurant. Moreover, this customer could be seen as an expert from the way he ordered the dishes, so he had to go all out now. He couldn't ruin his own brand. At this moment, he didn't even have time to care about the dark dish squid feet that were being roasted on the small oven in the kitchen.
"Yukihira…I remember that the main character's father is a master chef. I think he's some Shura or something…" Lin Ye thought about it. In his previous life, he was only 20 years old when he watched this anime. It had been a long time, so he couldn't remember many of the plot and characters in the anime. On the contrary, he remembered another ancient anime, China One, very clearly. He would flip through it from time to time to try and recreate the delicacies in it, but the success rate wasn't very high.
Who knew how those ridiculous things were made! What comet fried rice that fell from the sky, what mother's sun ball that rolled down from the Great Wall, and so on? He was really confused. However, he could still replicate some dishes that normal humans could make, such as Rising Dragon Dumplings, Golden Fried Rice, Magic Mapo Tofu, and so on.
Just as Lin Ye was thinking about his past life, Yukinari had already served the dishes.
"Please enjoy!"
The first dish on the table was the seemingly simplest sea bream sashimi. The sashimi slices on the plate were very thin and faintly translucent. There was also a plate of dipping sauce on the side.
" Then I'll start eating." Lin Ye reached out his chopsticks and picked up a piece of sashimi." Mmm, the slice is not bad. Let's try it."”
" Surprisingly, this dipping sauce is not bad." Lin Ye was really hungry, so he ate quickly. However, a line of text suddenly appeared on the dish in front of him," Three-star cuisine: " Sashimi thinly cut from sea bream, score: 80. A qualified product with passable cutting skills. The taste of the dipping sauce is excellent. However, the freshness of the ingredients is not enough, so it is not in a perfect state. Moreover, there is still a lot of room for improvement in the cutting skills.”
"This is?" Lin Ye's mouth twitched." System, did you do this?"”
"This is the system's built-in cooking rating function. It can be triggered when the host focuses on a certain dish.”
" Wow, it's quite practical." Lin Ye finished the sashimi in a few bites and then looked at the salt-grilled eel that Shouma Yukihira had just served.
" Three-star Cuisine: Salted Grilled Eel, Rating: 82. Excellent work with excellent fire control, but the freshness of the ingredients was not enough, and the seasoning was not harmonious enough.”
Lin Ye picked up the eel and put it into his mouth to taste it." Yeah, it's indeed not bad, but it's just not bad.”
"The last dish, please enjoy!"
Just as Lin Ye finished eating the eel, Yukihira Sojin served the last dish, the special curry rice.
"Hmm, the fragrance is rich and has a little sweetness. This is not bad!”Lin Ye's eyes lit up as he looked at the system's evaluation.
" Three-star Cuisine: 86. A work with a unique flavor and excellent seasoning.”
" That's what I think. The combination of spices is pretty good." Lin Ye didn't waste any time and started eating.
"Ah, 70% full. Not bad, we can come back to this shop next time!”
