Island country Kyoto.

Royal Restaurant, a subsidiary of Shuiyue Group.

Back kitchen.

Kitaoka Ei wearing a white chef's uniform is personally guiding the chefs of the team to handle several difficult dishes.

Today, a very famous French politician came, hoping to have authentic French food.

As one of the few Michelin three-star restaurants in the island country, it is common for receiving politicians and powerful people.

But this is a guest received by Vice President Hinata himself, so it must be treated with caution.

A blond French man wearing gold wire frames looked gentle and gentlemanly.

A few dishes for dinner, authentic and very suitable for your taste.

I tasted the taste from my hometown.

What made me most amazing was the main dish, Aveyron Lamb.

The province of Averon, France, is where I was born.

The lamb is made of the Lacone breed, a lamb that was about 90 days old.

The lamb has been eating her mother's breast milk since she was born.

In addition to the rigorous feeding process, it will also undergo strict screening before delivery.

Firm meat, pink meat, with a little white fat...

Only mutton that meets the top standards can be labeled with a red sè.

Different parts of sheep should have different ways to eat them.

Kitaoka Ei cooks in three different ways.

The meat of the sheep saddle is the thinnest and has the strongest taste, so it is roasted first and then fryed;

The sheep rack has more fat and tastes sweet and fragrant. Just fry it in a pot;

The meat of the olive neck is the most tender and smooth. After chopping the mutton, it will be inserted into the eggplant along with the local Rockford blue cheese.

"It's so great, I want to meet this chef." Henry said with a smile.

"Wait for a moment!" Hyuga Vice President, Vano Kawashima, nodded.

Wano Kawashima walked out of the box with a smile and whispered to the waiter: "Please ask Chef Kitaoka to come to our place, the vice president's guests want to see her."

In French cuisine, guests invite chefs to thank them in person is the best courtesy.

Henry soon met the young Kitaoka Ei.

What surprised him was that he was actually a female chef, who was only in his twenties.

Vice President Hinata smiled and introduced, "This is the youngest chef in our restaurant now."

Henry said curiously: "Why can you make such a top-notch Aveyon mutton?"

Kitaoka Ei explained: "I traveled in the Averon province of France two years ago and met a top local chef. After communicating with him, I learned how to make Averon mutton."

"This top chef, it's not Adrian!" Henry shouted in surprise.

"Yes, it's Adrian, indeed." Kitaoka Ei replied with a smile.

"No wonder I tasted his taste from this dish. You are so amazing. To be precise, you handle this dish more delicately than Adrian." Henry picked up the wine glass, "Thank you for bringing me the taste of my hometown in a foreign country."

Kitaoka Ei gracefully took the wine glass from Kawashima Fano.

A light collision with Henry's goblet made a tingling sound, expressing a response.

After Vice President Hinata and Henry left, Fano Kawashima met Kei Kitaoka who had taken off his chef's clothes and changed his clothes.

She wore a white coat on the upper body and a black skirt on the lower body and high heels on the lower body.

It is no different from other island women.

The makeup is exquisite and elegant, revealing a sense of sweetness and pure beauty.

"You performed very well today and received praise from Vice President Hinata. Your position will be more stable next." Kawashima Fano said happily.

"Oh, is that?" Kitaoka Ei smiled.

For her, actually

It's about completing the work of the day.

When the guest's information was passed to her, Kitaoka Kei knew how to please the guest.

She succeeded, but was not happy.

The works of other chefs are perfectly copied, just like a repeater, and the dishes lack soul.

Maybe you can deceive customers, but you can't deceive your heart.

Since attending the Death Cooking Exchange Conference in China, she has been in this state of depression. It is not about winning or losing, but about discovering her biggest flaw.

Success and failure are copied.

When a lot of other people's things are stored in my mind, I will subconsciously become someone else.

It seems to be living in someone else's shadow.

"I'll take you home!" Seeing Kitaoka Ei's eyes fluttering, Kawashima Fano felt that his words seemed weak and powerless, and did not please Kitaoka Ei.

"No! I've made an appointment." Kitaoka Ei politely refused.

Wano Kawashima was a little angry at Kitaoka Ei's love, "Ahui, are you planning to torture me all the time?"

Kitaoka Ei said seriously: "I never intended to torture you, it's just that you are wishful thinking. I have told you that my life will be dedicated to the kitchen. I will not focus on unexpected places in the kitchen."

Wano Kawashima said angrily: "No, you are my woman, I must get you."

After saying that, he grabbed Kitaoka Kei's wrist.

Kitaoka Ei was both ashamed and angry, and slapped Kawashima Fano's cheek with his other hand.

Although Kitaoka Ei is soft and weak, her wrist strength has been tempered for many years.

With a slap, he almost slapped Kawashima Fanye so hard that his parents didn't recognize him.

"you……"

In the workplace relationships of the island country, women have a humble status. After the age of thirty, there is almost no room for growth.

What's more, Kitaoka Ei and Kawashima Fano are still in the relationship between superiors and subordinates.

"Please stay away from me!" Kitaoka Ei warned him.

Leaving without looking back.

Kawashima Fanye looked at Kitaoka Kei with a hideous face.

Aren't you afraid that you will destroy her?

Although Vice President Hinata admires her very much, she is her superior, and it is not difficult to dismiss a chef.

Kitaoka Ei did make an appointment.

She reached the Shinkansen and came to a residential area located in the eastern suburbs of Kyoto.

Standing at the door of a two-story house, he rang the doorbell.

An old man who looked thin was wearing a kimono and wearing wooden clogs came to open the door.

He is Kitanoka Ei's mentor, known as a replica chef, and the most famous chef in the island country - Rukawa Tengsuke.

"Ahui, you are finally here. Your teacher's wife has been waiting for a long time."

Rukawa Takasuke liked his female disciple who closed the door very much.

Not only because she is smart and beautiful, but also because she has extraordinary perseverance.

To be a good chef, you must have perseverance.

The teacher's wife prepared the flower tea, and Kitaoka Ei drank two cups, and praised it repeatedly.

The teacher's wife knew that the two had something to talk about, so she pulled up the wooden door and left behind Kei Kitaoka and Tungsuke Rukawa.

"Teacher Rukawa, I'm still like this recently. I've lost my excitement when cooking any delicacy. I'm very scared now, afraid that I will always lose my love for cooking." Kitaoka Ei's tone was filled with despair.

Rukawa Tengsuke sighed softly, "I know you will surpass me in the end, but I didn't expect you to face this step so quickly."

Kitaoka Ei was slightly stunned, "This step?"

Rukawa Takasuke laughed at himself: "It's not a good thing to imitate too much, because you will lose your soul. However, you are talented enough and you are still very young, so I believe you will take this step."

“How can I take it?

”

"forget!"

"How can I forget it?"
