Chapter 896: Chapter 896: You, are Unworthy!_1 Chapter 896: Chapter 896: You, are Unworthy!_1 The audience assumed that since Cindy Clarke had already married Adrian Zhekova and become a young Madam, she would unlikely be devoted to working in the kitchen of a restaurant every day.
Even those renowned global head chefs who own so many restaurants.
Cannot possibly pay attention to all their restaurants equally.
Even if they stay regularly in one, they rarely cook themselves and often give instructions for their chefs to follow.
Take Charles Dean onsite for instance.
He owns several restaurants.
With many branches in Europe and America.
...
Some of which are even Michelin-starred.
However, he rarely cooks himself nowadays.
Other than the very characteristic signature dishes, which he occasionally cooks himself, everything else is delegated to his chefs.
Therefore, the audience relayed what they had just told their surrounding spectators.
They weren’t expecting Cindy Clarke to cook personally.
However, as long as the recipes were available, if her underling chefs could reproduce 80% of Cindy’s skill, it would suffice.
“Despite becoming cold, it still maintains this taste.
Just how delicious must it be when freshly served?” another person commented.
“This Tomato Soup was made with tomato juice.
As it was prepared without adding oil, even after cooling down, there is no congealing on the surface of the soup, which still tastes refreshing.”
“Ah, it would be great if we could heat it up.”
Here, there are all kinds of kitchen appliances, so it is actually convenient to warm it up.
However, right now, we need to take care of other matters first.
Other than the audience on stage, probably no one is in the mood to heat it up.
The audience below the stage is still waiting for the result.
Since they weren’t the ones chosen and couldn’t have a taste themselves, they are only watching, so naturally, they have no patience for waiting.
“Uh…
Can I try the food from the other contestants?” one member of the audience, who was on stage raised their hand.
Upon seeing everyone’s attention focused on her, she said: “I have just tasted Cindy Clarke’s cuisine, which was genuinely delicious.”
“But since I haven’t compared it with the others, I can’t really say whether Jenny Kirk’s score for Cindy Clarke had any bias or not,” this female spectator said.
“Certainly, there must be some bias.
Because after tasting Cindy Clarke’s food myself, without even doing a comparison with others, I believe that even if there’s a considerable gap, she shouldn’t be given a score as low as 2 or 3.”
“On a scale of 10, 6 is the passing score.
Are you suggesting that it can’t even reach the passing mark?” This female spectator laughed, “If Cindy’s doesn’t reach the passing mark, then all I can say is that Miss Kirk’s expectations are truly high.”
“I’m even more curious now to have a taste.
If the other contestants scored so much higher than Cindy Clarke, then how much better is their cooking really?”
“Of course, I have no intentions of offending the other contestants.
It is Jenny Kirk’s personal issue; the contestants were passively scored by her, they shouldn’t carry this burden.
I only want to understand Jenny Kirk’s standards.”
“In her view, since Cindy Clarke has such a large gap with the other contestants, so, I would like to confirm that.”
Upon this female spectator’s suggestion, other audience members then started to declare: “Right, she makes sense.”
The male audience-member, who became a fan of Cindy Clarke’s after eating the skewers, said: “We tasted Cindy Clarke’s cuisine and found it delicious, so we think Jenny Kirk’s grading is very unfair.”
“But Jenny Kirk probably thinks we only sampled Cindy Clarke’s cuisine before deciding.
She would think that we’re being biased and not fair at all.
So if we were to taste the other contestant’s cuisines, then make a decision, I believe Jenny Kirk wouldn’t have anything else to say!”
However, at the moment, where would Jenny Kirk have the audacity to object?
Grace Green looked at Adrian Zhekova.
After Adrian Zhekova nodded, Grace Green said, “Of course, your suggestion makes total sense.”
Then, all ten members of the audience went on to taste the cuisines of other contestants as well.
“I’m not sure why Miss Kirk’s sense of taste is so peculiar compared to regular people.
In my opinion, Cindy Clarke’s cuisine is on par with Parker Honi’s.” The male audience-member commented, “But I’m not a professional chef.
Regarding the difference in minute details, I can’t discern it, so we will continue to depend on the five judges’ evaluations.”
He didn’t consider Jenny Kirk at all.
The female member who initially suggested tasting the other contestant’s cuisines also said: “I’m not a chef.
Although I cook at home, I only make home-style dishes, which obviously do not compare to a professional chef.”
“All I am is a typical customer visiting restaurants.
As a common diner, I can discern which restaurants are delicious and which restaurants are not so much.
Even within a single restaurant, based on personal taste, I know which dishes I love more and which dishes are just average.
”
“From the standpoint of an ordinary diner, I also think that Cindy Clarke’s and Parker Honi’s cuisines are on par with each other.
I haven’t gone into detail about their cuisines.
I’m just saying taste-wise, both dishes deserve a full 10 out of 10 from my perspective!”
“I also agree that Cindy Clarke’s and Parker Honi’s cuisines are on par with each other.
Whoever becomes champion, I would accept it willingly and happily.
However, because of Jenny Kirk’s scores, Cindy Clarke had fallen far behind and became the last place, and I am not happy about it!” Another audience-member remarked.
“I was originally looking forward to a fierce competition, and from the scores given by the five judges, I can see how intense the competition was for a few contestants.
However, due to Jenny Kirk’s scores, this competition turned into a joke!” Another audience-member spoke out.
“I greatly respect the Pingla Competition, the other five judges and ten contestants, and have no objections against them at all.
They all did their best and brought us an exciting competition.”
“The Pingla Competition stood by their principles, and the five judges were fair and just.
The sportsmanship of the contestants is commendable.
However, I despise and am angry at the sixth judge, Jenny Kirk!”
“You don’t fit!”
Another member of the audience stood up and said: “Honestly, even when Cindy Clarke and Adrian Zhekova publicly announced their relationship, although they guaranteed that the judge’s scoring would not be affected by their relationship, I still had my doubts.”
“I thought that despite Cindy Clarke and Adrian Zhekova’s good intentions, even sincerely telling the judges to score fairly, I wasn’t sure whether the judges themselves could manage their mentality,” That member of the audience slightly bowed towards the five judges.
“I want to apologize to you five judges because my suspicions of you were my small-mindedness.
You judges are truly carrying out your duty of evaluation with great seriousness, without favoritism towards anyone. 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝑚
I’ve once doubted your justice and fairness which in turn was an insult to you all.”
“After personally tasting the cuisines, I have developed even more respect for you five judges,” that audience-member said, ” you all fulfilled your promise, yet it was ruined by the sixth judge, Jenny Kirk.”
