Chapter 392: Yukihira Soma: Shengzai's shop is so awesome now

"Transfer students like you can't surpass those internal promoted students who have been tempered in Totsuki Academy for three years of junior high."

And hearing Erina's words, Yukihira Soma also showed a confident smile: "Although I don't know how cruel your so-called Totsuki internal promotion is, don't look down on people, you self-righteous woman!

Three years of junior high tempering? Don't misunderstand. Children like me and Shengzai who grew up in our family's cooking shop started picking up kitchen knives at the age of three.

From the initial preparation, knife skills, wok flipping, heat control, etc., day after day of culinary foundation to cooking, we have experienced at least ten years!

Have you tried fighting in the kitchen for more than ten hours every day? Have you experienced researching new cooking and dishes for several days in a row?

Unlike you Totsuki flower-frame students, the practical experience we have experienced has been for more than ten years. The three years of academy tempering in your mouth is really not even considered pediatric in our eyes."

The Totsuki Academy she was proud of was mocked by Yukihira Soma, and Erina was undoubtedly very angry. However, she wanted to refute, but couldn't find any point to refute at all.

Now the only thing she was curious about was whether Yukihira Soma and the others really started picking up kitchen knives at the age of three as they said, and had been receiving various training since childhood.

Regarding the argument between Yukihira Soma and Erina, Nakiri Senzaemon didn't choose to interrupt on the side.

Because as a titan of the culinary world, just by looking at Yukihira Soma's hands, he knew the other party didn't lie.

The other party was only fifteen years old, but the thick calluses on his hands were definitely not something someone who had only learned culinary skills for a few years could possess; those were the proof of their efforts and sweat.

Nakiri Senzaemon didn't know how much Saiba Joichiro had taught his son, but in terms of basic skills alone, among the students of the entire Totsuki Academy now, it was estimated that no one could compare to Yukihira Soma.

"I am quite clear about your father's culinary level; even the mentors at Totsuki now are far inferior to him.

And you, who have been receiving his education since childhood, lost to that young man named Wenren Shengzai. Can I consider that his mother, Wenren Qingying, has a higher culinary level than your father? Or rather, the tempering he experienced since childhood is more than yours?"

Hearing Nakiri Senzaemon say that he was not as good as Shengzai, Yukihira Soma was immediately unconvinced and directly retorted: "I am not inferior to that guy Shengzai! It's just that he is temporarily ahead!

How Aunt Wenren trained Shengzai, I don't know, but I can be sure that guy Shengzai must have been secretly 'involutioning' (working harder than others) before, adding quite a bit of training for himself.

As for whether Aunt Wenren or my old man has a stronger culinary level, I don't know either, because the cooking they made when running the restaurant was just their casual work.

In short, in the eyes of me and Shengzai, they should both be guys we can't surpass at our current stage."

Nakiri Senzaemon and the others chatted, and soon the car drove into the street where Shengzai's restaurant was located. However, the driver soon turned his head and said to Senzaemon: "Director-General, the road ahead can't be driven in, because there are too many people."

Hearing what his driver said, Senzaemon also looked out the car window with a surprised face: "It seems that the business of the friend you mentioned is quite good."

And regarding the situation like this, Yukihira Soma said with a look of being used to it: "It's not strange. Business at Shengzai's family restaurant was originally good, and now my family's restaurant is temporarily closed, so the customers naturally all ran to his place."

Due to the crowd, the car couldn't continue to drive in, so Nakiri Senzaemon and the others could only get out of the car and walk.

And when they got out of the car, Nakiri Erina and Arato Hisako looked at the long queue in front of them, and their faces also showed extremely surprised expressions.

Because of the "God's Tongue" talent, Erina was often invited to some famous restaurants for gourmet evaluation, but she rarely saw a restaurant's business be this good.

Not to mention the grade of the restaurant, in the modern fast-paced life where time is money, so many people are willing to consume time costs to wait here, and seeing every customer leaving the restaurant with a look of satisfaction is enough to show that the cooking here must have its unique features.

"I'll take you through the small path, otherwise if we queue with them, I'm afraid it won't be our turn, and that guy Shengzai will close early again."

Business at Wenren Restaurant was also good before, but the number of people queuing before was absolutely not to this extent, so when seeing the grand occasion in front of him, Yukihira Soma said he was also a bit surprised.

"I am even more looking forward to the cooking made by your friend now."

Originally, with his status as the Totsuki Director-General, plus Erina's "God's Tongue," if they wanted to eat at that restaurant, let alone queuing, the other party would have sent a special car to pick them up and wait for them, which wouldn't be an exaggeration at all.

However, this time they came uninvited, so seeing the long queue in front of them, they could only thicken their skin and walk the small path with Yukihira Soma.

And just as Yukihira Soma took Erina and the others through the small path, first arrived at his own Yukihira Restaurant, and then planned to enter the restaurant through the connection between the two shops, they were stopped by a waiter.

"Several guests, I'm really sorry. If you want to dine in the main shop, please provide your number plate before entering."

"Number plate?" Looking at the waiter who stopped them, Yukihira Soma was completely confused. He didn't remember that eating at Shengzai's shop required this kind of thing...

And who is this guy in front of him? The waiter Shengzai hired wasn't the annoying woman from before?

How long has it been, and that woman was fired by Shengzai?

"I'm very sorry, if there is no number plate, we can't let you enter, because there are still so many customers waiting to dine now.

You can get a number here first, and when it's your turn to dine, we will notify you."

When seeing the other party apologize with a smile, and then hand him a note with "666" written on it, Yukihira Soma was completely stunned on the spot.

"That... I am a friend of your boss. You tell him, and he will let us in."

Although he didn't know whether the "666" in his hand referred to the number of people or the number of tables, it was clear that by the time his number was called, the daylily would be cold, so Yukihira Soma thought about it and prepared to play the authority card and walk the shortcut VIP channel.

"This guest, please don't make it difficult for us, because you are already the eleventh person today who said they are a friend of our boss."

Yukihira Soma: "(￣◇￣;) What the hell, do you think I need to lie to you?

My name is Yukihira Soma, and that Yukihira Restaurant next door is my family's. I grew up with that kid Shengzai since we were kids!"
