The Cheat Emperor of the Culinary World
Chapter 416 - 410: Well Worth a Try
Among the seven restaurants reviewed, only the last one hasn’t had its ranking announced yet.
Bo Ming and Brother Hua unanimously agreed to assign this task to Feng Xiaoxiao.
Feng Xiaoxiao is a veteran food critic and livestream host, with over ten years in the field.
She started with blogging, recording short videos, and eventually moved to food review livestreaming, becoming a highly professional critic in the realm of food streamers.
It’s rare for women to reach this level in food review.
Of course, that doesn’t mean there are no outstanding women in livestreaming; setting aside the childcare and household sectors, which are predominantly female, men are quite rare.
Apart from these, there are other livestream areas where women are also numerous, such as beauty and the appearance sector.
People might think that women have a high enthusiasm for food, and during the time of competitive eating, many gifted women emerged.
Moreover, women’s detailed expressive style is pleasing to the eye, making them more popular among fans.
However, there are far fewer women actually engaged in food reviews than men.
Especially female streamers traveling across large distances for reviews are exceedingly rare.
This is due to the different roles men and women play in the household, among other factors.
Food review streaming often requires streamers to adjust their itineraries on the fly, traveling to different cities, sometimes not having the chance to return home for months.
While the work is demanding, jobs that require leaving home are hard for most women to sustain.
Therefore, when studios select streamers, they often prefer men, not because they undervalue women, but because forming a team is challenging; the streamer is the soul of the team, and there are few alternatives if the person leaves mid-way other than disbanding.
However, female streamers’ patience and attention to detail are well-suited for this field.
Food tasting isn’t difficult; what’s tough is vividly and vividly sharing the flavors and feelings with fans, requiring meticulous attention, rich emotional expression, and a literary foundation.
Hence, many top female streamers have emerged in this field.
As a pioneer in food review, Feng Xiaoxiao has profound knowledge in food, vocabulary accumulation, and language expression.
She frequently visits all sorts of restaurants and food stalls, conducting various analyses on all kinds of cuisines, considering her understanding of food to be highly advanced.
Because of her deep research into food, she doesn’t chase after unique trending flavors like a typical foodie.
In her view, cooking methods are endless, as are ingredient combinations and seasoning ratios.
Instead of creating new culinary methods or flavors, she prefers to harness the strengths of traditional techniques and tastes.
Yet her perspective hasn’t been widely accepted over the years, as most people are used to following trends.
They believe that new flavors and ingredient combinations are worth trying.
For chefs, customers mean income.
To cater to the masses, chefs often learn trendy new methods, overlooked in-depth exploration of classic ingredients and flavors.
So when Feng Xiaoxiao tried the improved classic sauce from Qianlima, she felt an unprecedented resonance.
It’s possible this barbecue chef shares her philosophy!
Qianlima’s chefs truly perfected the classic barbecue flavors by enhancing them.
One sauce adeptly pairs with all ingredients, complementing rather than overpowering them.
Isn’t this what she has championed for many years?
Feng Xiaoxiao couldn’t hide her joy.
This is the stunning cuisine she has always advocated and desired!
Suddenly, she realized that she hadn’t found the cuisine she’d been hoping for not because she lacked power, hadn’t traveled enough, or was inexperienced, but because she hadn’t met someone who could fully embody this philosophy.
Now, she finally found such a person!
Today, in this barbecue delivery, this person fully demonstrated their exceptional grilling skills and culinary prowess.
Not just the taste, but the precision in cooking and plating presentation show this person’s serious and meticulous attitude towards dishes. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
This improved classic sauce barbecue refines the essence of the original sauce.
It’s truly impressive.
With this in mind, Feng Xiaoxiao decided that after this livestream, she’ll find a chance to visit Qianlima to meet this chef.
She wants to have a thorough discussion with this person.
Through communication and exchange with this chef, she believes her ideas can become more concrete.
She has always wanted to write a book, recording her years of food review experiences—a dining guide for the public, genuinely aiding fellow food lovers.
After thanking Bo Ming and Brother Hua for their courtesy, Feng Xiaoxiao smiled at the camera and said: "Today’s barbecue delivery review can be said to cover a few restaurants in Bei’an City with the highest online reputation, and we’ve ordered the signature barbecues of the shops."
"Actually, all the restaurants have authentic and very worthwhile barbecues; ranking them is, in my opinion, quite difficult."
"After all, personal tastes differ; our reviews are based on our preferences and do not necessarily represent others’. "
"So now, after our three discussions and deliberations, we’ve decided to award first place to Qianlima Restaurant."
"Their restaurant’s final offering of an improved sauce barbecue truly left me amazed!"
"Especially the grilled saury and shrimp; a single bite captures the sweetness of the seafood, with rich flavors crashing over your taste buds like a wave."
"And with the improved classic sauce, the strong flavors mellow after the initial impact, amplifying the seafood’s natural taste and making the barbecue an extraordinary culinary experience..."
"I personally believe that Qianlima’s seafood barbecue is definitely worth a try!"
