After three years of dormancy, the Gourmet Tyrant was born.

Inside the restaurant.

The senior members of the judging panel took their seats one by one.

"That's really surprising, so many people actually showed up?"

"It seems that Xuan Yu-jun is quite popular at school!"

"Dongmei, can you guess which one is Xuanyu-jun's girlfriend?"

"The young lady of the Nakiri family? The girl with the God Tongue?"

Hinako Inui whispered in Fuyumi Mizuhara's ear, secretly observing the girl group outside.

Mizuhara Fuyumi glanced at it casually, her expression unchanged for ages, and said:

"I have absolutely no interest in such pointless speculation."

"There are two Nakiri ladies outside. Lu Xuanyu's charm is really impressive."

"Speaking of which, weren't you attracted to him too?"

"Are you planning to date a young girl?"

Hinako Inui's small eyes widened instantly, and she said defiantly:

"That was my appreciation for the younger generation! I cherish their talent!"

"Do you understand? Don't use such foul language."

"But Dongmei has been single for a year longer than me... Hehehehe!"

Two adult women are driving.

Dojima Gin stood between Lu Xuanyu and Shinomiya Kojiro.

"You two should be well prepared, right?"

"A showdown of French cuisine!"

"Ingredients are prepared on site, and of course, we also bring our own."

"I believe the two of you have been preparing for this day for a long time."

"Next, let's see whether the sword of the new generation is sharper or the shield of the old era is stronger!"

"Two hours allotted, begin now!"

Lu Xuanyu and Shinomiya Kojiro did not continue their conversation.

I'd already said enough harsh words before even arriving here.

Now is the time to concentrate, face our opponent squarely, and unleash our full potential.

In front of the judges' panel.

"It seems that Shinomiya came prepared this time, and prepared all the ingredients himself."

"Sausage, pork belly, mutton..."

"White kidney beans, tomatoes, onions..."

"Are they preparing to bring out the restaurant's classic signature dishes?"

"Come on, Kasu!"

When Guan Shouping saw the ingredients prepared by Shinomiya Kojiro, he said with a surprised expression.

Cassava is a casserole dish, and it holds an absolute classic status in French cuisine.

In addition, Shinomiya Kojiro has studied French cuisine for many years, so his mastery of casserole is naturally superb.

"Xuan Yu-jun also brought his own ingredients; his table was full of vegetables!"

"Tomatoes, eggplants, zucchini, bell peppers, carrots..."

"Could it be!"

After observing for a moment, Inui Hinako grabbed Mizuhara Fuyumi's arm.

Mizuhara Fuyumi nodded and affirmed:

"That's right, it's 'Provençal Vegetable Stew'!"

"The dish that Xuan Yu Jun chose is also a classic French dish!"

Donato Wutongtian praised, saying:

"This is terrible, this is really terrible!"

"A showdown between classic dishes?"

"It seems they both want to kill each other!"

……

Outside the restaurant.

"Erina, stop contradicting me every time I say something!"

"Calssured and Provençal vegetable stew, I would say this is a duel of classic dishes, am I wrong?"

"You can order these two famous dishes at almost every high-end French restaurant, you big idiot!"

Alice clenched her little fists in a huff.

"It's not as simple as it seems on the surface."

"With your intelligence, you can only see the surface."

Erina remained calm, intently observing the movements of the two people inside.

Tadokoro Megumi stood at the glass closest to Lu Xuanyu, her eyes sparkling.

Normally, when there are many people around, Tadokoro Megumi would not speak up to express her opinions.

Today, however, I feel an unusual urge to analyze it.

"Alice, Erina might be right."

“Every fine French restaurant serves classic dishes from its menu, which have been cooked millions or tens of millions of times.”

"Different chefs will cook different flavors."

"Since classic dishes are served so frequently, it is actually very difficult to create something truly innovative and eye-catching."

"This showdown of French 'classic dishes' is actually a showdown of 'innovation'!"

After hearing this, Mito Ikumi nervously placed her hand on the glass table:

"A clash with Shinomiya-senpai, who has years of experience competing overseas, in culinary innovation!"

"Lord Xuan Yu, cheer up and keep going!"

After hearing Tadokoro Megumi's analysis, Nakiri Erina cast an admiring glance at her.

Being able to serve as Lu Xuanyu's secretary, it's clear that Tadokoro Megumi's culinary intuition is beyond the average person.

In the cooking room.

Dojima Gin, who did not sit down but stood to the side, admired the courage of the two.

Kojiro Shinomiya is indeed an expert in French cuisine.

French cuisine is particularly adept at cooking and processing vegetables and fruits.

Known as the magician of vegetable dishes!

But in this showdown, they chose the Kasulai casserole, which is mainly made of meat!

In contrast, Lu Xuanyu.

Even though he knew that Shinomiya Kojiro's specialty was vegetable cooking.

However, they chose a vegetable stew without any meat.

One side is pushing its limits!

The other side is pushing the other's limits!

"What proud and stubborn chefs!"

"When choosing what to cook, I was prepared to push myself to the highest level of difficulty and challenge the limits of my abilities!"

"I really can't wait to see how this culinary showdown will turn out!"

Dojima Gin couldn't help but admire him in his heart.

Before preparing the ingredients, Shinomiya Kojiro noticed the types of ingredients that Lu Xuanyu had taken out.

A fine example of French vegetable cuisine: Provençal vegetable stew!

Lu Xuanyu's arrogant expression immediately flashed into Shinomiya Kojiro's mind.

This was the first time he had ever been provoked to this extent in his own territory.

"Smelly brat..."

"Today I'm going to show you the difference between you and me!"
