Chapter 604: Jet Black Curry Laksa
"Who are you, young man?" Natsume curiously asked, she looked at the handsome youngster who just arrived.
"Sorry, im late,"
"You're the Head Judge on block A?"
"The head judge? I don't know." Lou confused said, he doesn't know that he is the Head Judge but he knows that he is one of the judges here.
"Do you have any invitation or proof that you are one of the judges here?"
"Well… I don't have…. But I can call Nakiri for you if you want, she is the one who called me last Friday to come here."
"No, never mind, if Princess Nakiri calls you to come then you are legitimate to sit with us."
"By the way, I'm Natsume Sendawara, one of the heads of the Haubi Food Corporation"
"Hello I'm Kita Osaji, the sponsor of the "Kita Gastronomy Club"."
"I'm Andou Shingo, I'm a writer about cuisine in general"
"Nice to meet you, I'm Lou Takasu, student."
"A student?" The three judges felt weird having a student sitting with them, they don't know that Lou has to have the privilege to be the head judge but still, they accept the fact that the headmaster is the one who let him come, maybe something from him is unique.
"Hey! So you're just a student! From your look, you seems don't even know how to cook!" The student who just got negative points from Loun is angry.
"That's right, I'm a student like you, and also I'm not a student of culinary, I'm just a typical normal student." Lou answered with a smile on his face.
The student's sarcasm smile and ask," Then why do you give me negative points if you don't even learn culinary?"
"You see, even though I'm not a culinary student of culinary, I have a pretty sensitive taste. I can easily tell if the food is made in a hurry or the ingredients are being overcooked."
"What do you mean?"
Lou pick a silverware and scoop a mouthful of food and said," The ingredients is just right, the flavoring is pretty good, you use a pretty good type of chicken and other spice but you did something stupid."
"Chicken Tikka has no bone, so it's easy to eat with a spoon but you forgot, the basis of good curry is not from the spoon but on what you use on the chicken."
"You overcook the chicken making it lose some natural fat, you overheated the spice making it taste bitter, you used sea salt but you forgot that it's better to use ordinary salt if you're going to use Chaat Masala."
As Xin tells them his opinion he keeps eating until he finishes the dish, he elegantly wipes his lips and looks at the student," Judging from your look you pretty understand why i gave you negative right?"
"Y-Yes sir!"
"Good, after hearing what i said i think you learned something from me today and that is good, learning from defeat means you can still progress on your cooking so be confident."
"Thank you very much Sensei!"
"Umm…. Sensei… can I ask you something?"
"Yes?"
"Why…. Why do you still finish my dish even though you know that it's a failure one?"
"Stupid, wasting food is bad, i dont like someone wasting food even its bad, but still i have the level of badness that i can tolerate to eat, and also I'm not a picky eater."
"Then….."
"Let's continue."
The game continues, and the people who have a recessive negative grade from Lou are piling up, but even though he gave negative points the student is not angry at all, after all they recessive knowledge from their failure so it's a win-win situation.
"The incredible negative points are still coming one after another so who is the one who can get the first possessive score from our head judge!"
"Now the next dish is—- hgh!"
"This!"
Like a dark cook, the next student wh present dish is walking while holding a bowl of the black dish, Lou even thought that it's a dark dish if not from his knowledge on ingredients.
"Urrg!"
"It- its stink!"
"What is this stench!!"
"Go ahead, thai is Sadatsuka Nao's Special "Jet Black Curry Laksa" enjoy~"
Nao is of average height and has a Sadako-like appearance, due to her very long jet black hair that flows down to her lower back. Her long flowing bangs commonly cover her right eye, even when she ties her hair back whenever she cooks. Despite her creepy appearance, she wears a neat standard school uniform during school hours and wears a standard chef's uniform whenever she cooks.
Lou looking at her is the same as her looking at him, as if they are going to fight my moment.
"So you're that kid."
"You know me?"
"Yes, try my dish, let 's see how you can still maintain your handsome face."
"Sure, let me try." Lou grabs a chopstick and slurps a mouthful of noodle. Looking at his eating made the other judge feel pain for this young man.
"Coconut Milk, Squid Ink, Lemongrass Kusaya, Flying Fish, Mahi Mahi, Toppings Bean Sprout, and Tofu Puff Cilantro."
"You're pretty good, you can easily distinguish the ingredients."
Lou helpless sigh, the stench is unbearable but the taste…. " It's delicious, if you just remove the stink I can say this is a perfect dish."
"This is a similar idea to "Kapi" a spice made from fermented shrimp, by using Kusaya which is way more peculiar than Kapi, the flavor becomes even deeper."
"Since the stock for the Laksa is made from fish, its affinity is exceptional, that's why it all makes sense."
Lou, who just finished his dish, gently put the bowl and looked at her," Even if you resemble someone I fear when I'm still a kid, your dish is pretty delicious. Like yourself, I can see the full potential of you and your dish."
He gently smiles making this charm explode inside of the stadium hitting every single girl who sees his smile.
"Good job, I will give you 2 for your dish."
Nao petrified seeing his smile, she doesn't know why her cold-blooded heart suddenly pumps warm blood, as if she is being revived, an angel descends and helps her pull from darkness, then two straight red lines slowly come out from her nose.
"S-So handsome!"
"Kyaaaa!!"
