The story of Shokugeki begins when Alice picks him up and brings him home

“This is our restaurant’s signature appetizer, deep-fried water urchin slices. The water urchin slices are deep-fried until crispy and then brushed with sea urchin sauce. The taste is rich and unique.

Come on, give it a try!"

Placing a plate of exquisitely shaped food in front of Bai Yuan, Soma Yukihira introduced it enthusiastically, looking at the two of them with anticipation in his eyes.

"Let me try it."

Taking a pair of chopsticks from the side and handing them to Mujichi Enka, Bai Yuan picked up a piece of fried water chestnut and put it into his mouth.

The next moment, the fresh taste of sea urchin mixed with the umami flavor of fried water chestnuts bloomed in your mouth.

"The sea urchins here are quite fresh. They must have been caught yesterday and delivered to the store today. They are sweet and delicious and melt in your mouth."

"I personally went to the seafood market this morning to pick these and peeled them one by one. The freshness is absolutely guaranteed!"

Hearing Bai Yuan's praise, Soma Yukihira said with some pride.

“The water chestnuts were fried to perfection and the heat was just right. Food really tastes best when it’s just out of the oven!”

Kikuchi Enkaya said happily that she never expected to eat food of such quality in a popular restaurant.

"Right! The fried water chestnut and sea urchin slices from Yukihira are my favorite!"

Every time I come here, I order one, a sip of wine, a bite of fried arrowhead sea urchin slices, and savor it slowly. It’s really enjoyable.”

As newcomers to the store, the arrival of Bai Yuan and Kikuchi Enka attracted a lot of attention.

Everyone was looking forward to their shocked reactions when they tasted the food cooked by Yukihira and his son.

As for why you are looking forward to it so much.

Maybe they feel like their child has made great progress and they can't wait to let others know.

This mentality exists.

“It’s true that it’s great to be able to serve this level of cuisine in a popular restaurant, but this dish has two minor drawbacks.”

After praising the dish, Bai Yuan paused and started talking about the shortcomings of the dish.

"shortcoming?"

Soma Yukihira was puzzled and suddenly had a bad feeling.

“Yes, the biggest problem with this dish is that the sea urchin sauce is not evenly applied, and the taste of arrowhead is obviously too strong in some places.

In addition, excessive use of seasonings will affect the sweetness of sea urchin and the umami taste of water chestnut to a certain extent.

Of course, apart from these two points, the rest is handled very well.

Especially since it uses fresh sea urchin and the price is so cheap, it can be said to be good value for money.”

Bai Yuan nodded in praise. If the dish was evaluated based on the standards of a mass-market restaurant, the taste would definitely be above the passing line.

"So, be more attentive when dealing with customers, and don't be hasty. You've practiced this appetizer a thousand times, so you should be able to make it well."

I picked up a piece of fried water chestnut sea urchin slices with chopsticks. I don't know when Yukihira Joichiro appeared at the side. He said helplessly to Yukihira Soma while tasting the food.

"I'm very sorry, my cooking skills are not very good, I'll give you this dish for free."

After scolding Soma Yukihira, Joichiro Yukihira rubbed his head and apologized to Bai Yuan, and at the same time waived the meal they had.

"Since you can taste the bad food, you must be a good eater. I will cook the next few dishes myself, and you will not be disappointed."

Feeling the lingering taste on his tongue, Yukihira Joichiro spoke.

Even he could not taste such a subtle change in taste without careful tasting. But the young man in front of him discovered it as soon as he took a bite. You can imagine how powerful his tongue is.

Such guests should not appear here.

But now that it has appeared, Yukihira Joichiro will not have any fear, he will only think about how to satisfy his taste buds.

The more discerning the eater is, the greater the sense of accomplishment the chef will feel when he tastes the food and shows a happy expression!

"I'll look forward to it."

Bai Yuan nodded, expressing his anticipation.

There are two chefs in this restaurant, Yukihira Joichiro and Yukihira Soma.

Ordinary diners cannot tell the difference between the two dishes, but he can clearly tell that Soma Yukihira is too naive.

"Ok.

Soma, please entertain the other guests."

"Huh? Oh."

Hearing Bai Yuan's words, Yukihira Joichiro nodded and gave some instructions to Yukihira Soma who was standing beside him in a daze.

Then he turned and walked towards the kitchen, taking out a hair tie from his pocket and tying his hair up, with a serious expression on his face.

"That dish just now was made by that boy just now?"

After reacting, Kikuchi Enka's expression revealed surprise, as if he couldn't believe that a dish of such quality could be made by a young boy.

The level of that dish was definitely top-notch. A top-notch chef of such age is rare even in Totsuki!

"If you practice a dish thousands of times, even the dumbest chef can polish it to the level of first-class cuisine.

This doesn’t mean he is a top chef, but with his talent and hard work, it’s only a matter of time before he becomes one.”

"Even so, it's already amazing. At least when I was his age, I couldn't cook first-class food."

Bai Yuan said this after glancing at Kikuchi Enka, and then turned his gaze to the young man who was entertaining the guests and was a little absent-minded.

The other party seemed to sense something and looked over at this moment.

Their eyes met and Bai Yuan smiled at him friendly. Soma Yukihira also nodded, his heart full of curiosity about this mysterious man.

The other party could point out the shortcomings of his cooking so easily, he must be a good chef, otherwise his father would not have treated him so cautiously.

But why would such a great chef come to their small restaurant?

It's really incomprehensible.
