Chapter 190: List of Famous Chefs Additional update for the leader of the Iron Armor League!
It's nice to unlock a new illustrated book, but what you're going to eat tonight is even more important.
Qin Huai changed his clothes and went into the kitchen. He found that only Wang Jun and Dong Shi were cutting dishes. Huang Jia was not there, and neither was Master Huang.
After asking, I found out that Huang Ji was having a wedding banquet tomorrow night, and Huang Shengli would personally cook the special dishes for the banquet. At this time, he was still undergoing physical therapy to warm up for tomorrow's banquet.
Huang Jia was worried that Huang Anyao's business level was not up to standard and he would not get the best ingredients from suppliers, so he went to check it out in person during the afternoon break. He was not sure when he would come back, and he couldn't wait until evening business hours.
If you rush back, there is a high probability that Huang Shengli will randomly drop the position of chef who replaces Huang Jia.
I can only say that the guests who come to Huangji for dinner tonight are very lucky.
"Dong Shi, do you know which restaurants Mr. Gong went to Peiping to eat at? Why did he go there for so long? I looked at his WeChat Moments today and felt that he had no intention of coming back." It was rare for Qin Huai to stay in Huang Ji's kitchen without having to do anything.
When working, just stand next to Dong Shi and gossip.
Dong Shi responded while cutting the meat: "I just ate at one restaurant, the most famous private restaurant in Peiping."
"Fen Garden."
"Fen Garden?" Qin Huai took out his mobile phone and searched for it, and found that it was indeed very famous. He could find many posts with mixed results.
The good reviews are basically reviews of the food, which is very delicious and worthy of the reputation. It is the craftsmanship of a top ten celebrity chef.
The bad reviews are basically insults about the price, what kind of profiteers, bad intentions, the food prices are crazy, the food sold is gold, you can add a table without making a reservation in advance and paying more, there is no master style, the chef is obsessed with money.
"What skills are in the top ten list of famous chefs?" Qin Huai asked curiously.
"Contemporary masters are unique and have reached the pinnacle." Dong Shi rarely used very short words to express the greatest praise. "Don't say I will be in the top ten of celebrity chefs in my life. As long as I can be in the top 50 of celebrity chefs, it will be my ancestral grave."
The smoke is coming out, I have no regrets in this life."
"So powerful." Qin Huai was a little surprised.
He knew that there was such a thing as a celebrity chef record. Huang Anyao had learned about it when he asked him about Xu Cheng's "Knowing Taste". He said that Xu Cheng created a mechanism similar to Michelin, but only ranked chefs.
The top 100 famous chefs in the world are selected to be included in the celebrity chef directory. The selection is held every five years. At the beginning, 50 were selected from around the world. During the second selection, it may be that the number of the top 50 in the world was too small.
Increase the number of seats to 100.
According to Huang Anyao, the main reason why the selection of celebrity chefs will be increased from 50 chefs to 100 is because the selection cycle is too long, only once every 5 years, and the ones on the list are basically red chefs, white chefs are very
Rare.
The peak period of red case chefs is only a few years. Many chefs are listed on the celebrity chef directory at the end of their peak period. By the time of the next selection, they have retired or semi-retired. And the celebrity chef directory itself does not require active chefs.
To be on the list, the chef can stay on the list as long as he doesn't die.
This resulted in that during the second re-selection, there were only about 30 active chefs in the top 50.
This led to the birth of many classic jokes about celebrity chefs. For example, although so-and-so is the third in celebrity chefs, he is currently the number one. As for why he cannot become the number one in celebrity chefs, it is because the first two
Now that he's retired, he can't compete with the top two.
Of course, Huang Anyao, a loyal fan of "Zhiwei", has clarified this rumor and said that such a ridiculous situation is absolutely impossible. The top 50 rankings in the celebrity chef list require repeated consideration by a professional team, and the top 30 requires Xu's own experience.
Nod your head for certification in person.
As the most famous gourmet in the world, Xu Cheng's credibility in the matter of eating is definitely obvious to all, and it is precisely because of the high value of his celebrity chef list.
The top 50 is very valuable, and 51~100 is relatively less good. The bottom 50 does not need Xu Cheng’s nod of approval, and the review team is different from the top 50. Relatively speaking, there will be more water and become some chefs.
How to change the name of a rising star in the arts.
This name brushing is very particular.
How can a new chef make a name for himself in the chef world?
The answer is to be on the list of celebrity chefs.
There is a threshold for ordinary chefs to become famous chefs. There are so many restaurants around the world that it is impossible for the selection team of Celebrity Chefs to notice the chefs in every restaurant. You must first be famous before you can be noticed by the selection team.
Only then will he go to his restaurant to taste his cooking skills, and only then will he have the opportunity to be listed in the celebrity chef directory.
Therefore, the conventional method for ordinary chefs to get on the celebrity chef list is to first spend money to build momentum, buy advertisements, and buy interviews in food magazines, and accumulate a certain reputation to attract the attention of the selection team. Then they can barely get on the list of more than 90 celebrity chefs with their good skills.
Get a ranking at the bottom of the crane and get tickets for the next selection.
This selection method leaves a lot of room for loopholes and backdoor operations. It will lead to some chefs who are actually average and get lucky enough to be listed in the celebrity chef list because they spent money. There will also be many good chefs who miss the opportunity to be selected because they are not famous.
It is precisely for this reason that the recognition of rankings outside the 60s and 70s of Celebrity Chefs is not high. Generally, only the top 50 will be recognized by the industry, the top 30 are recognized masters, the top 20 are industry benchmarks, and the top 10
He is a shining leader.
The last time Huang Anyao and Qin Huai did science popularization, Qin Huai had no idea about this kind of ranking, masters, craftsmanship, etc. He simply forgot about the story after hearing it.
Now that he heard that Dong Shi recognized it, and that Gong Liang had indeed eaten in the private restaurants of the top 10 chefs in the celebrity chef list and did not want to go back to Suzhou, Qin Huai became somewhat interested in this ranking and checked it out.
Looking at the names, there should be two Chinese chefs in the top ten, namely Peng Changping who ranks first and Xia Mubing who ranks tenth.
The fifteenth man is named Sun Maocai, who should also be a Chinese chef.
Twenty-four Qin Huai has heard of Pei Shenghua, Pei Xing’s distant cousin.
After that, there were more Chinese chefs. Qin Huai took a closer look and found that Huang Shengli ranked 44th, which was considered a top 50 goalkeeper.
Huang Jia is even worse, seventy-eight, a ranking of parallel imports that Huang Anyao said is not highly recognized.
There is no Zheng Siyuan and no Zheng Da.
"Why is Master Zheng Da Zheng not on this list of famous chefs?" Qin Huai asked.
Huang Jianeng is ranked 78, and with Zheng Da's level, it should be easy to rank around 50. According to Qin Huai's judgment, Zheng Da's cooking skills are only slightly worse than Huang Shengli's, and Zheng Da is not a chef, so he can be ranked 50 on the celebrity chef list.
50 people should be a very honorable thing.
"Master Zheng refused to participate in the ranking." Dong Shi said, looked around, and explained in a low voice, "Actually, I participated once, and ranked fifty-three, one place lower than Master Tan from Zhiweiju. Master Zheng felt that this ranking was low, and he thought that his craftsmanship was not as good as Tan's.
If the master is bad, he will be overshadowed by Master Tan when he participates in the rankings, and he directly refuses to participate in the rankings."
"But I think these are all excuses. The most important thing is that Uncle Zheng's ranking was much lower than Master that time."
"When Master first appeared on the celebrity chef list, he was ranked 37th. Now he has dropped to 44th because of his unstable performance due to a back injury."
"Is the chef of Nafen Garden ranked first, Peng Changping, or Xia Mubing, ranked tenth?" Qin Huai asked.
"It's Master Xia. Master Peng Changping is in the United States and has been retired for many years."
"How high are the prices of vegetables in Fenyuan? Even if you are ranked tenth on the celebrity chef list, you will be scolded as a bad person." Qin Huai became even more curious.
Huang Shengli, who was ranked 37th at his peak, had this cooking skill. Qin Huai couldn't even imagine how delicious the dishes made by the chef ranked 10th were.
Dong Shi thought for a while and said: "I have never eaten it, but I heard that it is one zero more than our Huang Ji."
Qin Huai:!
“If you don’t book an additional stop in advance, it will be doubled.”
Qin Huai:!!
"Mr. Gong has been eating stuffed food these past few days. It is estimated that he has eaten up more than a year's salary in a few days."
Qin Huai had a completely new understanding of Gong Liang's wealth.
It’s broken, and I want to inherit 10% of his inheritance. Can the game system issue more side tasks about Gong Liang? He likes to do it.
"By the way, Qin Huai, senior brother said that you will no longer make five-packed buns but three-packed buns. Why? Is it because sea cucumbers are difficult to handle? You don't need to handle them." Dong Shi asked.
"I went back to Yunzhong Canteen these days to practice three-ding buns, and I felt that I had some insights and a big breakthrough. I feel that three-ding buns are more valuable for practice than five-ding buns, and I am now making three-ding buns.
It's better, so from now on I will only make Sanding Bao." Qin Huai explained with a serious face.
Dong Shi:?
In total, I only took 6 days of vacation. What can you think of it?
Cooking is not about practicing internal skills and mental methods. Once you break through the entire realm of Dzogchen, cooking is all about practicing over time. Unless you reach a bottleneck in practice, you can have an epiphany.
Qin Huai has obviously never encountered a bottleneck. Just like a game character, he levels up when he has gained experience and has never been stuck in levels.
"That's it." Dong Shi didn't understand, but accepted, "Then will you make chicken noodle soup tomorrow morning?"
"Definitely. Zheng Siyuan loves chicken noodle soup the most. Now that he can't practice crab roe siomai, he must make chicken noodle soup in the morning." Qin Huai said.
Dong Shi was at a loss again: "Zheng Siyuan loves to eat chicken noodle soup? Is there such a thing? He told you? Where did you know about it? How come I have never heard of it? Although I don't talk to him very much,
To be precise, he doesn't talk to us much at all, but who told us about his hobbies?"
Dong Shi had an expression on his face as if there was no chef in Huangji’s kitchen who was better at gossiping and gathering information than me.
"I guessed it." Qin Huai said calmly, "I discovered a long time ago that Zheng Siyuan always seems happier when I make chicken noodle soup in the morning. It is obvious that he likes chicken noodle soup more."
"Especially when he encounters Huang Jiadiao soup, he will drink it up every time."
"And I can also guess that although Huang Anyao says he likes eating crab roe shaomai, he actually prefers eating fruits."
"Huang Jia likes the crab shell yellow with sweet filling."
"You like fermented steamed buns."
"Your brother's favorite is Yuanmeng Shaobing, but he doesn't like the stuffing I fry. Sometimes he will secretly fry the stuffing himself and eat it with the Shaobing."
Dong Shi was shocked again. The person in Huang Ji's kitchen who was better at picking up gossip than him was actually Qin Huai.
"Stop talking about this, who will cook the staff meal tonight?" Qin Huai asked.
"My brother." Dong Shi hadn't recovered from the shock, "It turns out that last time my brother stir-fried minced meat to go with Yuanmeng Shaobing, I explained why he suddenly stir-fried minced minced meat without this dish.
"
Qin Huai nodded: "Then I'll go to the bone-setting shop to set the bones first, and come over later to enjoy the staff meal."
Dong Shi watched Qin Huai leave and muttered: "Is it me who has worked at Huangji for 8 years, or Qin Huai who has worked at Huangji for 8 years? Why do I think he is more familiar with Huangji than I am?"
Wang Jun silently divided the cut vegetables and said, "Qin Huai has the habit of observing others eating and writing down their tastes. Don't you know?"
Dong Shi suffered another critical hit.
"Otherwise, why do you think Mr. Gong likes him so much?" Wang Jun said, "You can't find a chef with this level, this habit, and the ability to put it into action even with a lantern."
"Not to mention that Qin Huai has a good relationship with Mr. Gong and is willing to set up a separate business for him."
Dong Shi realized, he put down his kitchen knife and chased out: "Qin Huai, what do you want to eat tonight? I'll ask my brother to fry it for you!"
Wang Jun:……
