Chapter 1009: Fitness Set Meal and the Modernized Primitive Man Broly

Facing this request to change the menu, Sekimori thought for a moment and agreed: "Although the steak set is the assignment, running a real restaurant or hotel means encountering all sorts of unexpected situations, such as this guest's request right now."

"This joint training camp considers the students' overall quality, so, Broly, tonight you can freely create your own dishes, with the premise being that the guests feel satisfied."

"Making fifty portions?"

"Mm——"

Sekimori pondered, looking at the president of the Kamiuwa University Bodybuilding Club.

"We have big appetites; one normal portion isn't enough to fill us up."

Saying this, the club president showed Sekimori Head Chef a smile with white teeth.

"The number of portions might be a bit more. Here's what I'll do: I'll have some students temporarily join your Free Cooking Team to help you make the corresponding number of portions. As long as the guests feel satisfied, all students who made dishes tonight will have their assignment considered passed."

"Can I pick the people myself?"

"You want to pick them yourself?"

"Yes."

"Fine, as long as the people you pick are willing themselves."

Sekimori nodded. In the current situation, Broly was temporarily promoted to Head Chef, and a Head Chef's authority in the back kitchen is very great, including how the back kitchen should use its staff.

"Also, during cooking, if you feel someone isn't doing well, you can say it directly. If you hide it and delay the food service, you'll take the blame yourself, because you are the Head Chef."

Sekimori added another sentence; this was considered advice.

While enjoying the right to manage the entire back kitchen, a Head Chef must also fulfill certain obligations, such as ensuring the quality of the dishes.

Therefore, when choosing team members, one must choose carefully; if you choose poorly and don't say anything, the unlucky one will be yourself.

"Those willing to join Broly's team but who do poorly and are pointed out by him will also be fired from this joint training camp."

Sekimori said to the other students that Broly must choose carefully, and other students, if invited by him, must also carefully decide whether to agree to join the team, because the other party holds their own fate.

Fortunately, Broly didn't intend to invite people he didn't know; he directly looked at the friends from Polar Star Dormitory.

And Soma Yukihira and the others naturally had no objections. Broly then looked at Nakiri Erina: "Shi Xing Lao Shi, can you come over and help me?"

"You've got some guts, actually wanting me to be your assistant?"

"I can follow your commands."

"You want to give me the Head Chef's authority?"

"As long as you don't arbitrarily fire people who do well."

Broly said to Soma Yukihira.

"Fine, I agree. But you don't need to give me the Head Chef position; after all, the guest specified you to do the free cooking. Just give me the Sous Chef position; I'm mainly responsible for reviewing the taste of the dishes served."

Nakiri Erina also looked at Soma Yukihira, and this time she would use one hundred percent of her God Tongue's taste buds to the fullest, letting this guy know what high standards and pickiness about cooking taste means. Even if the other person just put too much salt, she would reject the dish and demand a remake.

Nakiri Erina agreed, and Hisako Arato wouldn't refuse either. As for Ikumi Mito, this girl who had already fallen for Broly, couldn't wait to help make dishes right now.

In the end, Broly's Free Cooking Team was composed of nine people from Polar Star Dormitory and three from Erina's side, forming a twelve-person team, and they needed to make six hundred portions corresponding to the number of participants.

However, when deciding what to cook, Broly found himself in a dilemma. The Bodybuilding Club's free creation was like a guest walking into a restaurant and ordering a random menu.

Doing well is the basic duty; doing poorly could result in a direct explosion.

"Instead of guessing wildly here, why not just ask the guests about their tastes?"

Soma Yukihira raised his hand to say, and his opinion was adopted.

"Our tastes? Hmm, we're into fitness, so taste can be secondary; what's important is that it helps our fitness."

"As for what exactly to eat, we don't know either. Why not just follow what that muscular young man usually eats?"

The Bodybuilding Club president answered, but Soma Yukihira and Tadokoro Megumi, who came over with paper and pen to record, didn't know how to write it down and walked back with troubled expressions.

"What, as a waitress asking guests about their taste preferences, you can't even figure it out?"

Nakiri Erina spoke directly to mock, not targeting Tadokoro Megumi, but targeting Soma Yukihira.

"No, we asked clearly, but after asking clearly, it's actually hard to make."

"Why, are the guests' tastes very picky?"

"Not very picky, it's just that they want to eat what Broly-san usually eats."

Hearing this, the people from Polar Star Dormitory all gasped.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem with what Broly usually eats?"

Ikumi Mito asked in confusion.

"Isn't it simple? Doesn't he eat everything?"

Hisako Arato also found it strange.

"Yes, Broly-san indeed eats everything, but the problem isn't that he eats everything; it's that the portions he eats are a bit large."

"Hah, what's wrong with that? Broly has a good build, so what if he can eat a bit more?"

"Six pots of rice in one meal."

"Over ten jin of meat as a base."

"Most importantly, he's only seventy percent full."

"Do you think there's a problem?"

The people from Polar Star Dormitory chattered among themselves, directly supplementing the three with Broly's usual daily food intake.

"No, how much did you say?!"

Ikumi Mito asked in a surprised voice.

"No wonder. In the Sixth Cooking Building, no matter how many dishes are made, he can finish them all."

Nakiri Erina suddenly realized.

"With that appetite, forget six hundred portions; even sixty portions, whether that group of fitness club people can finish them in one meal is a big problem."

Hisako Arato rubbed her temples. Even if they made a dish according to what Broly usually eats and served it, how to price it is a problem, and whether the guests are willing to accept it is another problem.

Free cooking does let you improvise freely, but if you go overboard, customers might turn on you and refuse to pay.

"I think we should first set a standard portion for one dish based on a normal person's appetite before anything else."

Nakiri Erina's words received everyone's agreement.

"Any other requests from those Bodybuilding Club people?"

The blonde girl pursued further.

"Uh, they want dishes that help with their own fitness."

Tadokoro Megumi answered.

"The core of fitness diet is high protein, moderate carbs, and quality fats."

Nakiri Erina summarized.

"High-protein meat options: chicken breast, skinless chicken thigh, beef shank, pork tenderloin are all fine."

Meat expert Ikumi Mito directly listed the meat options.

"Fish and shrimp, oysters, shellfish are all fine."

Sato Shoji said.

"Others include eggs, milk, tofu for supplementation."

Yoshino Yuuki counted off the remaining usable ingredients.

"Don't forget sugar-free yogurt."

Sakaki Ryouko added.

"Moderate carbs, but they need to be filling, so complex carbs are best. Rice can be fried rice, but not too much. Others can use sweet potato, corn, pumpkin, oats, and other coarse grains to make different dishes for supplementation."

"Vegetables should preferably be leafy greens (spinach, lettuce, Chinese lettuce) and high-fiber vegetables (broccoli, celery, cucumber), and when cooking, use less salt and oil."

"Fat choices are olive oil, plus nuts like almonds and walnuts, and of course, fruits like avocado."

After a group confirmed the available ingredients, the next step was choosing specific dishes.

"Chicken breast is low in fat and easily dry, but as long as it's marinated in advance and cooked low and slow, it can be tender and fragrant."

Ikumi Mito decided to use meat, and she chose chicken breast.

"Fitness meals need less oil and salt. When marinating, use less salt, and use black pepper, lemon juice, minced garlic, rosemary, honey, and other natural seasonings for flavor, avoiding high-sodium sauces."

Iwasaki Shun supplemented the marinade seasonings.

"Part of the carbs will be fried rice, but the oil will be changed to olive oil."

Soma Yukihira was responsible for this part.

"I'll use sweet potato for the other part of the carbs. Steam the sweet potato until cooked, mash it into a paste to make a cake, with a filling of almond and walnut crumb mixture, also providing some fat."

Hisako Arato planned to make sweet potato almond walnut cake, and this pastry counts as the dessert part.

"Vegetables can be made into a salad with shrimp, but don't use high-oil high-sodium salad dressing. Use sugar-free yogurt sauce instead, and add half a boiled egg."

"Soup: tomato mushroom tofu soup. Tomato is sour and sweet and appetizing, tofu supplements protein, plus enoki mushrooms, wood ear mushrooms, and other fungi to increase dietary fiber."

"Okay, the fitness set meal is complete. Standard portion for a normal person's appetite, six hundred dishes production begins!"

Nakiri Erina issued the production order, and everyone took action, each assigned to the part they were best at making.

Of course, Broly's knife skills were too good, so he took on all the prep work, and because he was strong enough, he also had a share in the fried rice.

Marinating chicken breast, cooking chicken breast, mashing sweet potato, crushing almonds and walnuts, blanching shrimp meat in plain water for salad, and simmering tomato mushroom tofu soup.

One set meal contains a small bowl of olive oil fried rice, a slice of low-temperature slow-cooked black pepper honey chicken breast, a piece of sweet potato cake dessert, a portion of shrimp vegetable salad, and a bowl of tomato mushroom tofu soup, not including soup, each portion about 700g, enough for one normal person's meal.

Erina, as the reviewer for dish service, was also responsible for supervision and guidance on the side while everyone cooked. Although nominally she didn't take Broly's head chef position this time, she was already doing the head chef's work.

And although she wanted to pick a thorn with Soma Yukihira, unfortunately the other party made no mistakes at all. In the end, she only gave his fried rice an ordinary evaluation, and this set meal was served to the table.

"This fried rice is amazing."

"I like this yogurt sauce salad."

"The chicken breast is so tender and fragrant. My own fitness meal chicken breast compared to this is simply dog shit!"

【The customers' wolfing down is the best compliment to the chef.】

A group of examiners watched the Bodybuilding Club customers' fierce eating on the scene, nodding silently in their hearts.

In less than sixty minutes, with division of labor and cooperation, they successfully made six hundred dishes.

In a sense, this was already a qualified back kitchen team of a large restaurant with over a hundred seats.

【As expected of the Nakiri family's little princess, her back kitchen control is perfect. And that Taste Doctor boy, the seasoning of every dish is very well done. Azami Nakiri's son. Olive oil fried rice, using oil not usually used for fried rice, and still noticing the characteristics of the oil, controlling the heat well—】

Totsuki Culinary Academy Resort Executive Chef Dojima Gin, after watching the entire cooking process on the side and tasting the set meal made by Broly's Free Cooking Team, made different comments on each team member in his heart.

And among them, Broly was actually unremarkable. Although Free Cooking came because of him, his own back kitchen work was more like a very useful tool person, going wherever help was needed.

However, Dojima Gin had received Joichiro Yukihira's contact in advance. After knowing how long this guy had actually been studying cooking, he could only mutter that he was a natural cooking talent monster, because the other party no longer showed any beginner's situation, and there was no difference at all from an excellent student's performance.

The cooking level that others took years of effort and sweat to achieve, this person fully mastered in less than two months, and even his knife skills were absurdly good.

Perhaps his back kitchen control ability was a bit lacking, but he was willing to give up the head chef's control authority to let those who knew take over. This even surpassed many professional head chefs who had a strong desire to control the back kitchen.

Excellent in all aspects, perfect knife skills, a learning ability talent monster, a rising future culinary world new star. This was the evaluation Dojima Gin reached in his heart after secretly observing Broly.

"Mister muscular young man, are you interested in joining our Kamiuwa University Bodybuilding Club?"

After finishing eating, the Bodybuilding Club president came over to ask.

"Wait, can high schoolers from other schools join too?"

Before Broly could speak, someone beside him asked in surprise.

"Of course not. However, I'm not inviting him to become a member of our Bodybuilding Club, but to become our Bodybuilding Club's Dietary Consultant."

The Bodybuilding Club president answered with a smile.

"The kind with a salary, not helping for free."

He added another sentence.

"Then what does this consultant need to do?"

"Mainly help our Bodybuilding Club members formulate and execute dietary and nutritional supplementation plans; the compensation we'll pay you at the normal market rate for a Sports Nutritionist."

"Currently a Sports Nutritionist's annual salary, even the lowest, is above 3.4 million yen."

Yoshino Yuuki checked on her phone and then said to Broly.

"If you're willing to personally cook for us, our Bodybuilding Club is willing to pay even more compensation."

An annual salary of 3.4 million yen fell a bit short of an ordinary white-collar worker's annual salary, but considering a Sports Nutritionist's workload, and further considering this is compensation for a high school student still in school, it nevertheless made the surrounding group of students — including the hotel staff — look over sideways.

"But I'm not a Sports Nutritionist."

Broly reminded them.

"No problem no problem, with that physique of yours formulating meals for us, anyone who sees it will feel convinced; I can already imagine when the regiment recruits new members in the future, countless new students wanting to work out will come to register."

The Bodybuilding Club president with a bit of Kansai dialect waved his hand.

"That's true, with Broly-san's physique, the fitness diet he formulates, probably no one would question it————"

Soma Yukihira's words made Tadokoro Megumi and the others subconsciously nod, because it was too persuasive.

"In my opinion, Broly coming to Totsuki Academy to learn cooking is really a waste of talent; he should develop in the bodybuilding circle direction.

If he's willing to endorse products, fitness equipment and protein powder selling companies would probably be willing to hold out piles of cash to invite him to endorse.

Of course, an amateur's endorsement fee isn't high, but with his physique competing in a Bodybuilding Competition, he'd probably also easily win the championship; after getting the championship, his value and fame will both skyrocket, becoming a ten-million-class big blogger, a billionaire, is not a dream."

Marui Zenji pushed his glasses and made a well-founded analysis.

"Hiss—"

The surrounding other students gasped; a billionaire unexpectedly by their side, and a classmate with them.

Alright, Totsuki Academy doesn't lack kids from wealthy families, but the problem is, relying on family wealth versus relying on one's own ability to have money, those are two different matters.

"Don't get distracted, you guys whose cooking isn't finished yet, do you want to be eliminated?!"

Dojima Gin scolded them with one sentence, only then letting these students settle down.

【Really though, Broly's physique seems to have better development prospects in the fitness world than the culinary world; after all in the fitness world, dimension is justice————】

Dojima Gin, who also has a fitness hobby, counts as half a fitness world personnel; he completely understands why that Bodybuilding Club president favors Broly; a chef's external appearance is also one of the signboards.

"How about it, this Broli's Brother, are you willing or not to be our regiment's Dietary Consultant?"

"Can you let me consider a bit?"

"No problem, let's add each other on Line; if you've considered it, contact me anytime."

The Kansai dialect president nodded, took out his phone.

"Uh, what is Line?"

Broly was rather puzzled.

"? You don't use this kind of instant messaging software?"

Hearing this, Broly subconsciously looked at the others.

"Broly-san, you don't know Line?"

"Don't know."

"No wonder; your contact is either making phone calls or sending text messages; I thought it was because of family influence reasons that you're used to making phone calls and sending text messages."

The isekai Broly transmigrated to actually has quite a few modern societies, but opportunities to use instant messaging software are not many.

After a simple explanation, Broly also understood; this is something with functions similar to the Crystal Palace's Cross-World Chat Room.

Only it needs a phone and Internet to use, and cannot conduct cross-world communication.

With Tadokoro Megumi's help, he registered Line using his phone number.

Added everyone's Line numbers, promised the Bodybuilding Club president that once he'd considered it, he'd give him a reply.

Tonight's cooking assignment counted as perfectly finished.
