Chapter 1349: Do I Still Want My Reputation?

“Speaking from experience, we should start with the dish with the lightest taste. Otherwise, it could affect the food’s taste drastically.” Tony propped his chin up and pondered as he looked at the three big prawns in front of him. Which one of them had the lightest taste?

“I’ll suggest you eat the garlic crayfish first because the spicy crayfish’s spiciness is really no joke,” Steve reminded him while he grabbed the garlic crayfish. He twisted the head off, and dipped it in the minced garlic before sucking on the head, and revealing a satisfied smile.

Tony looked at Steve who was enjoying his food, and his gaze landed on the garlic crayfish in the center. The finely minced garlic became golden-brown after it was fried, and the rich garlic’s aroma washed all over them. Surprisingly, there wasn’t the usual spicy taste of the garlic, and it was obviously milder when compared to the thirteen-spice and spicy flavor.

“Oh, this is the first time I’ve seen garlic being used as a side dish for seafood. If this dish is served to the vampires, they would most probably show their true forms straight away.” Tony smiled as he twisted a pincer off the crayfish too.

The pincer was knocked upon by the back of the knife, and there was a mild crack on it. He pressed harder, and the shell was split into two. The supple meat was revealed.

The crayfish meat was very supple, and the gravy had seeped into the pincer through the gaps. Hence, he could see that the heat control of this crayfish was very good, and it was removed from the wok at the correct time.

However, there was a note of hesitation on his face when he looked at the white and tender crayfish meat and then the garlic in the plate.

Tony didn’t like garlic. This condiment favored by humans was not commonly seen on the Demon Islands. The fresh seafood didn’t seem to go well along with the strong smelling garlic, and it had a hateful agitating spicy scent.

He had a live fish sashimi with a clove of garlic on an island last month. The taste of garlic lingered in his mouth for days, and the air behind him wasn’t very fresh for the next few days.

“If you eat the pincer without dipping into the minced garlic, this dish will have lost its soul,” Steve reminded him as he put the crayfish’s head down. Then, he twisted a pincer off, and pulled out its supple flesh before rolling it in the minced garlic. After coating the meat with a layer of golden glistening minced garlic, he bit off half of the pincer, and showed a satisfied expression.

“I guess you are playing me, but I don’t have the proof.” Tony hesitated for a moment before rolling the pincer in the plate, and coating it with a layer of minced garlic.

I’ll just take one bite at most. Even if the taste is very strong, it will be over soon after I tolerate it for a moment,

Tony thought, and then he bit into the pincer that was coated with the minced garlic.

The crayfish meat that was coated with the minced garlic released its taste on the tip of the tongue first. The texture was surprisingly mild, and the garlic’s unique spiciness was missing. After stir-frying, the garlic became an exquisite taste that activated the taste buds instantly.

And the supple crayfish meat complemented the delicious minced garlic beautifully, and it became even more scrumptious as he chewed on it.

Why does the garlic taste like this? This is completely different from the garlic I have eaten before! This taste is so beautiful. It is so gentle like the caress of the sea yet still very rich. It didn’t steal the limelight and freshness of the crayfish meat, and instead made it taste even more scrumptious!

This taste! How did he make the crayfish taste so divine!?

Compared to it, the king mantis shrimp could only be considered a little brother. This is the real ultimate king of the crayfish!

Eat it. Forget about the king mantis shrimp.

Tony’s heart was full of shock. This mouthful of crayfish had completely subverted his understanding of prawns.

He really couldn’t imagine that there were really chefs who could make the prawns taste so unique and exquisite.

Even someone like him who had eaten his way through the Demon Islands and knew the seafood best in this world was shocked.

He dipped the other half of the crayfish meat in the minced garlic before eating it in one bite again. Tony felt the beautiful taste that was blossoming at the tip of his tongue, and revealed the same blissful smile that Steve was showing.

Tony put down the empty pincers, and asked Mag, “Boss, did you recognize the garlic wrongly? The garlic that I had before had never tasted so nice.” He was increasingly sure that the boss had made a big mistake when he was naming the dish. He continued, “No one knows garlic better than I do. That is a kind of food that makes one want to cry after eating it. It’s not a friendly ingredient.”

“Are you talking about this?” Mag was chopping garlic when Tony was talking about that. He swept all the minced garlic into the wok before tossing a small clove of garlic onto Tony’s table, and said, “This is just normal garlic.”

Tony stared at the clove of garlic that was spinning in front of him. It was covered by a light purple skin, and the faint spicy taste had already begun to disperse through the skin. It was no different from the garlic that he had seen before.

Meanwhile, the minced garlic in Mag’s wok began to turn golden gradually, and the aroma slowly blossomed. It smelled exactly like the minced garlic in the garlic crayfish.

Tony was stunned.

Do I still want my reputation?

I am the most famous food critic in the demon race!

Steve, who was drinking beer from his mug, laughed and then coughed violently. He had never seen that expression on Tony’s face before.

“Hmm? Isn’t that Master Tony? I have seen his portrait in the Perfect Food magazine before.”

“Is he that food critic who says he knows the seafood the best? Seems like he didn’t know things very well. He even recognized the spices wrongly.”

“Maybe Boss Hades is simply too unique.”

Some customers had recognized Tony. The great food critic’s reputation had spread far and wide.

Usually at such a moment, Tony would maintain a low profile as he stood up to wave to everybody before signing autographs for one or two fans, and conducting a live review of the food in front of everyone’s admiring gazes. He would then gain more fans in the process.

But today... Tony kept making mistakes and people noticed them, so he was a little panicked. Protecting his professionalism and reputation became his most important task now.

“I think this is a very creative way of cooking. It made garlic delicious with the correct method.” Tony smiled. Although he was swearing at Mag in his heart, the garlic crayfish was really very delicious, and he couldn’t say words that were against his heart. It would have appeared very unprofessional.

He who talks much errs much. Tony quickly resumed tasting the garlic crayfish after his remark.

A cut was made on the crayfish’s back from the head to the tail, but the meat wasn’t damaged at all. He peeled the crayfish meat that was as thick as an arm out from the shell, and dipped it in the minced garlic. He took a big bite, and then his whole world became complete instantaneously.
