gourmet food

Chapter 1086 It's my turn to play!
The walk to the living room is actually not too long, but Duke Dalton walked for more than ten minutes. On the surface, it seemed quite leisurely, but only he knew the hardship in his heart.

As soon as he appeared in the living room, several regional leaders on the scene greeted him immediately, but they were immediately stopped by the old housekeeper Delong.

His Excellency the Duke nodded to them, then walked quickly towards the gorgeous throne with his chest held high.

The reason why he was able to walk quickly was because old housekeeper Delong was supporting him. There was nothing wrong with a little support here, otherwise, his physical condition would be exposed.

Only then did Chu Yunfeng see the true face of the Duke. He looked much younger than his real age. He didn't look like someone in his seventies, but at most he looked like he was in his 50s.

It can be seen that the Duke's maintenance skills are still very strong. I don't know what health care products he uses every day?

And his appearance was also very stunning. He wore a crown inlaid with various jewelry on his head. It looked quite impressive. Just the red jewelry in the middle made Chu Yunfeng jealous.

Not to mention that there are a total of six such jewelry inlaid, not counting the rest of the matching diamonds of various sizes, which shows how valuable and extraordinary this crown is.

However, Chu Yunfeng felt puzzled. It is understandable that the queen wears a crown. Can a duke also wear a crown?
So Chu Yunfeng asked Mu Qing in a low voice: "You said that if I take a photo of this person with the crown and send it to the magazine, the news of this transcendent act will definitely go viral. Will this make a fortune?"

It was just a joke. I thought Mu Qing would stop her, but she didn't expect her to laugh immediately: "No problem, you can take the photo, but I'm afraid no one will buy it!"

what's the situation?
Seeing Mu Qing's slightly teasing expression, Chu Yunfeng knew that there must be something he didn't know, so under "coercion and inducement", Mu Qing explained.

"This is actually not a crown, but a crown. It is not restricted by form, occasion or status, and can only be worn by nobles.

Also, it’s not that the duke cannot wear a crown, some dukes can also wear it. As long as he is the monarch of his own principality, he can still wear it.

These are the traditions and rules left by the previous European nobles. As for whether the Duke can wear a crown, you have to ask him! "

Mu Qing covered her mouth and snickered, leaving Chu Yunfeng helpless. Who didn't understand that these noble lords were so good at playing?
But they don't bother to care whether they like him or not. The most important thing now is to see the real situation of the Duke. Someone has already finished the dishes, so he must take a closer look.

However, the Duke didn't seem to be in a hurry to serve the food right away. Following the old butler's signal, the responsible persons immediately sat down at the dining table.

This seat is not taken casually. Chu Yunfeng saw Sims sitting in the second position. It seems that his status within the group is not low.

After the group sat down, they naturally cared about the Duke's body immediately, but they spoke in a very low voice, and Chu Yunfeng couldn't hear anything.

Also, it is estimated that the other chefs who came to cook the food are not very clear about the situation. Among all the chefs, only he knows the best.

They also thought that this was just a normal invitation. It was very common for the top nobles in Europe. The lifestyle they enjoyed was naturally different from ordinary people.

Not to mention inviting several chefs at once, even if there are more than a dozen chefs, there will be no problem.

Now two chefs have finished making the dishes, and they are standing there proudly, with the smiles on their faces unable to be concealed.

As you can imagine, there are a total of six chefs in the room. Although everyone comes here to earn commissions, they are more concerned about reputation.

After all, the Duke's status is not low. If word spreads that the dishes he cooks are very popular, then this is also the only way to indirectly improve his status.

Especially if you are the first to finish cooking, you will have the first chance to win the honor. After all, people's appetite is limited. If the Duke tastes more of the dishes in the front, then the dishes in the back will naturally be much less.

Everyone has this little thought, and everyone is not stupid, but after all, cooking still takes some time, not to mention the more exquisite the dishes, the more time it will take.

El Raffarin prepared a very delicate dish today, so he was still a little bit away from finishing it, and he was gritting his teeth and increasing his speed, trying to finish it earlier.

What surprised Chu Yunfeng the most was that the two chefs who finished the dishes first were probably locals, and Chu Yunfeng didn't pay much attention to them.

But the two of them didn't know if they felt too bored after finishing the dishes. When they looked at themselves, there was a hint of teasing in their eyes.

Are you despising yourself for just going through the motions?
Or should he show off his superb cooking skills in front of him?

Chu Yunfeng showed a smirk at the corner of his mouth, and then glanced at them casually, just like that, and then he couldn't help but sneered.

The expressions on this face changed a lot, obviously with disdainful expressions, this made the two of them even more unconvinced, and their eyes were filled with a trace of anger.

However, this is obviously not a good time to cause trouble for Chu Yunfeng, but the relationship has been settled. When the "bastard" Chu Yunfeng makes a fool of himself later, he must be ridiculed.

Chu Yunfeng laughed for a reason. The dishes cooked by these two people were indeed quite interesting. If he guessed correctly, if this dish was served, the Duke would probably not be willing to let them get close to him.

One made smoked beef ribs, and the other made barbecue, but he used cinnamon, and he could smell the aroma of the cinnamon.

The taste of cinnamon is very special. Generally speaking, it is similar to cassia bark, but the spiciness is much stronger than that of cinnamon bark.

The smoky and spicy taste is definitely a torture for people with poor appetites like Duke Dalton, which will create a strong contrast to the hungry appetite.

So once you smell this smell, you will feel nauseated, let alone taste it. If you don't spit it out, it's good.

But these two are still so proud that they don’t know how to write the word cry later, so they can just wait and watch the show!

While several responsible persons were chatting with the Duke, Sims turned his head to look at Chu Yunfeng from time to time, with a look of anxiety on his face.

And Chu Yunfeng's actions every time made him dumbfounded. If he hadn't been unable to go back now, he would have urged Chu Yunfeng to boil water quickly.

As for boiling water to make tea or something else, boil the water first. Why are you still sitting there motionless? This makes me really panic.

Every time he turned his head, Chu Yunfeng showed a bright smile, then raised his hand and waved at him. This enthusiastic attitude made Sims unbearable.

Brother, stop playing around. This is not a fun time to say hello remotely. Hurry up and get moving. The Duke is already here. Don’t hide any hard work you have to do!

If it weren't for the fear that Chu Yunfeng would get angry and run away, Sims would have picked up the cloth bag on the kitchen table and taken a good look at it. The curiosity about the bag in his heart was like a bug scratching it, itching uncomfortably. .

Mu Qing was holding back her snickering the whole time, and she couldn't show it too obviously, and it was a bit uncomfortable to hold it in.

But she also knew that Chu Yunfeng had big plans, so she couldn't be anxious. Only by striking in advance could the benefits be maximized. She could only wait patiently.

After some pleasantries, some people naturally couldn't wait. Joseph couldn't wait to ask. The chef he invited back was the first to finish the dishes. Can the dishes be served now?

In fact, George also wanted to mention it, but he was unexpectedly beaten to the throne by Joseph. The chef he invited back was naturally finished, and they all wanted to show their faces in front of the Duke.

Seeing the Duke nod, Old Butler Delon immediately ordered the waiting waiter to fetch the tableware and place them on the table one by one.

These tableware looked very unusual, a little different from what Chu Yunfeng had imagined. He thought they were all exquisite ceramic products, but he didn't expect them to be made of gold.

There are not only gold but also many silver tableware, while ceramic tableware only occupies a small amount, only one tea cup and one dinner plate.

The ratio is also quite strange. The silver fork and the golden spoon don't seem to go together well. Chu Yunfeng summed it up and guessed it was because the Duke's appreciation level and taste were relatively strong.

But the cutlery was just an inconsequential issue. The first chef brought out the smoked beef ribs he had made.

As a well-known local chef, this dish is the restaurant's signature dish, and you still need to make a reservation because the ingredients need to be processed in advance.

The main reason is the smoky flavor, which needs to be slowly smoked for 24 hours in advance, so that the meat can have the aroma of bacon, which will make people want to eat it.

The flavors of some herbs and cheese will further highlight the unique taste of smoked meat. You will never forget it after you take a bite.

So he was very confident in his dishes, and Joseph's face was also full of joy, just waiting for the Duke to finish the dish directly after it was presented.

Then enjoy a glass of red wine and announce the end of the meal, then you will be the biggest winner.

Although this is the first time I have invited a chef over, I have heard from people inside that the Duke has a bad appetite, and many of the chefs invited by others failed to give him a taste.

Such information was once considered by him to be false news, intended to confuse the people behind him and to cover up their lack of intention to find top chefs.

The imagination is beautiful, but the reality is very cruel.

When the dish was presented, the smile on Joseph's face gradually stiffened, and then began to turn livid.
Just after Old Butler Delon took over the dish from the chef, he had just placed the dish in front of the Duke, and an unexpected scene occurred!

The Duke's brows that were originally relaxed suddenly frowned deeply, and the knives and forks that had been picked up were immediately put down.

Then he suddenly pushed the dish out with such force that he almost overturned the dish.
Face!

Slap on the spot!

And the sound of the slap made George completely excited.

There is no harm without comparison. After Joseph was embarrassed, if the chef he hired showed his face, he would be too proud.

When the Duke became angry, Joseph naturally felt as if he had been struck by lightning. When he was about to explain to him, Old Butler Delon whispered something in his ear.

Then Joseph no longer explained, but stood up and bowed to the Duke, and then walked away directly with the chef.

The old butler is a good person, otherwise it would be extremely embarrassing to leave him there. I don’t know what happened just now. Why did the Duke feel so disgusted with getting the dishes?

Duke Dalton also had troubles that he couldn't express. He was already very depressed and uncomfortable, but when he saw the smoked beef ribs, he still felt a little appetizing.

This kind of smoked beef ribs definitely tastes good, and it gets better and better the more you eat it. I was planning to take a bite to see if my appetite can be restored.

But I didn't expect that I hadn't done anything yet. The smoky smell almost knocked me over. My stomach started churning and I almost vomited it out!
Surprising!

It's so weird!
This situation has never happened before, especially when I still have a little bit of thought to taste it, but there is such a huge contrast that it almost kills me.

So when he was caught off guard, he pushed the smoked beef ribs away like a reflex, otherwise he would definitely be smoked to death.

In order not to make a fool of myself, I had to work hard to suppress the feeling of boredom in my heart. The smell of smoke was simply too uncomfortable for me!
George saw the opportunity coming, so he immediately became excited. Under the nod of the old butler, the excited chef came up with the barbecue!
Cinnamon-tinged barbecue!
The confident chef stabilized his pace and sped up a little, while Chu Yunfeng showed a cruel smile on his lips, making it clear that this guy was going to die.

George's "face changing" was faster than Joseph's. The joy in his heart collapsed into a mess, and he didn't even last more than three seconds.

Seeing the chef he invited walking over with confidence carrying the dishes, he couldn't hide the smile on his face. But before the old butler could receive the dishes, the Duke had already sentenced him to death!
"Take it away, take it out for me quickly, get out, get out now!
vomit."

Finished!

What's happening here?
George felt that his soul was about to leave his body, and he was immediately frightened to death. What on earth was wrong? The food was poisonous?
But this hasn't been served yet, and the Duke hasn't even tasted it yet. Why did he react so strongly that he even retched?
Ruined!
Seeing the very unkind look in Old Butler Delong's eyes, there was no need to say anything in his ear. He immediately bowed and apologized at the speed of light, and then immediately grabbed the still confused chef and ran away!
You have to run faster. If the Duke thinks that he is looking for someone to poison him, who will he ask to reason with?

We can only wait until later to inquire about the situation and find out what is going on, especially after the Duke's anger has subsided, and then go to plead guilty!

Two consecutive "accidents" made the other people in charge almost dumbfounded. Only now did they realize that things were not as simple as they thought!

And Sims has experienced this kind of battle. At this time, he found that the Duke's condition seemed to be much worse than before. Is this reaction a bit too strong?
With the two people's lessons learned, the rest of the people were a little afraid to be active and immediately asked for the chef they invited to come on. The scene was a little cold for a while, which made people feel very embarrassed.

The three chefs who were still cooking also noticed the abnormality of the scene, and their hearts began to beat, so they all relaxed their movements when making the dishes.

But one person's movements began to become bold and bold, and the movement was not small, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the audience!
Without him, it would be Chu Yunfeng!

It’s finally time for my buddy to show up!

He acted very actively now, lit a fire directly, placed an exquisite kettle on the stove, lit the fire and started to boil water.
