After tasting Master Zhong and Zhao Jingjing's abalone braised pork, Jiang Gai asked Li Nai what he thought of the two.Li Nai admits that both are authentic, but if she wants to distinguish between superior and inferior, she prefers Master Zhong’s version.In order to ensure that Li Nai could remember this unique flavor, Jiang Jie emphasized that she should remember this taste.
After returning home, Li Nai noticed the peculiar smell on his father Li Jidong's body and reminded him to take a shower.But seeing that her father was unwilling to cooperate, she had no choice but to ask Cui Can for help.Because Li Jidong suffered from Alzheimer's disease, was not particular about hygiene and often got lost, Li Nai could only place him in a welfare home while he was at work.
Cui Can came to Li Nai's house with bathing tools and successfully persuaded Li Jidong to enter the bathroom.After giving him a bath, Cui Can mentioned Master Zhong while chatting with Li Nai.Cui Can revealed that Master Zhong’s name was Zhong Haiyang, and Zhao Jingjing was his daughter.After Zhao Jingjing returned from abroad, the two father and daughter had a knife competition. As a result, Master Zhong lost and Zhao Jingjing became Zhao Yeqing's chef.But there are rumors that Master Zhong lost to Zhao Jingjing on purpose in order to avoid Jiang Gai.
At a meeting of the Chefs Association, Jiang Gai and Zhao Jingjing met.Director Jin asked by name to taste Zhao Jingjing’s craftsmanship.She made a mapo tofu dish for Director Jin.Director Kim thought the dish was too simple and asked her to make two more.Although Zhao Jingjing was reluctant, he still walked into the kitchen, made two dishes using two inappropriate ingredients, and then left.
After observing these two dishes, Jiang Jie reminded Zhao Jingjing that eating these two dishes at the same time may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, which may affect the five-star evaluation of their restaurant.He further told Zhao Jingjing not to think that she was so great. In fact, Master Zhong lost to her on purpose in the competition with her father.
Hearing Jiang Gai's words, Zhao Jingjing became confused and decided to ask his father for the truth.Master Zhong was very happy to see his daughter visiting and cooked abalone and braised pork for her.After tasting his father's craftsmanship, Zhao Jingjing realized that his father was indeed better than him.
So Li Nai asked his father if he was really avoiding him on purpose as Jiang Gai said.She asked her father what harm he had done to Jiang Jie's father.After hearing his daughter's question, Master Zhong recalled what happened that year.During the one-star review, he voted against Jiang Jie's father.At that time, he just didn't want Jiang Jie's father to open a restaurant.
When Li Nai went to work, she met Zheng Fangfang, the sous chef of Chunyu Restaurant.Seeing Li Nai come to work, Zheng Fangfang felt strange and asked her if she had not received the text message.After checking the text message, Li Nai found out that Chunyu Restaurant would be closed for three days.
Zhao Jingjing challenged Jiang Jie to grab the knife.In order to prepare for this game, Li Nai wanted to know the reason why Zhao Jingjing took the knife.However, Zheng Fangfang shook his head and said that he did not understand why the originally agreed five-star evaluation suddenly turned into a knife-winning competition.
Li Nai also discovered that Jiang Gai would go out of business for a few days before each competition and hide at home to research new dishes.She saw this as a great opportunity to learn.
When Jiang Jie went to buy abalone, the abalone seller refused to sell it to him.After Li Nai learned about this situation, he offered to help Jiang Jie buy abalone.When she looked for Jiang Jie, she found that he was not at home, so she called him.Surprisingly, Jiang Gai told her the password of his electronic door, allowing her to enter and exit freely.
After entering Jiang Jie's house, Li Nai accidentally discovered on his computer that the negative reviews he received when he opened his restaurant were actually Jiang Jie's fault.When Jiang Ai returned home, Li Nai asked him why he did this.However, Jiang Gai explained that this was for her own good.
In the process of buying abalone, Jiang Jie encountered difficulties and was unable to buy the abalone he needed.After Li Nai learned of this situation, he offered to help him buy abalone.When Li Nai went to buy abalone, Jiang Gai heard the weather forecast and learned that it was raining heavily outside. He was worried about Li Nai's safety, but his hand was cut open.
After Chen Duo learned that the locals did not sell abalone to Jiang Jie, he bought abalone from other places and called Jiang Jie.However, Jiang Gai told him that it was not necessary.
When Li Nai bought abalone, she accompanied Jiang Jie to practice cooking.Li Nai was responsible for smelling the ingredients and tasting them. It wasn't until she told Jiang Jing that the taste was better than that of Zhao Jingjing. He rubbed his waist and stood up slowly, but then he fell down due to fatigue.
Through careful observation of Jiang Jie, Li Nai finally discovered his secret.It turns out that the reason Jiang Jie was able to make the dishes so delicious and perfect was because of his repeated experiments and improvements.
