Now the judges will try every meals presented by all participants.
We can see the variety of their reactions.
How is our participant's cooking result?
Will it meet the taste of the judges?
Shan-cai should be okay./ Of course she will be.
If she doesn't make it, who will?
Next the judges will try the slow cooked dishes that is prepared by the participants.
This session is about to finish. Who will going to make it...
...and who will fall short?
Let judge Xiao Wen announce the result.
I will announce the result.
Dai Jing-jing, Gao Xin-ting, Zhao Xiao-yang, and Lin Wen-jiao.
Unfortunately, these four participants don't make it...
...to the top 10.
Shan-cai made it. Thank goodness.
Unbelievable that the girl who kicked you in the hallway...
...can really be a skilled cook.
Is it because your good eyes or your sister's strict exercise come to fruition?
After all Shan-cai have the determination that is really special...
...that enable her to do the impossible.
After the first session finished, there are 6 participants remain.
The six of them pass to the next session, snack creation session.
Let us request judge Tang Jing-mei to explain the rules.
Long time ago, snack is used to entertain the soldiers in the battlefield.
This is also the essence of Chinese food culture.
In this session, participants must choose a flower as the main element of the dish.
Use a flower to display the beauty and flavour of the dish and...
...create a perfect typical Chinese snack.
Everyone fighthing.
Right, what are you all waiting for?
Please go to the cooking station.
Let us see the participant's cooking process in the kithen.
Second session, presenting snack. You have one hour.
2 out of 6 participants will be eliminated and only 4 participants will continue.
What is Shan-cai doing?/ I don't understand either.
Good if you don't understand, this is what is called great.
There is one minute left. The time is running out.
Okay, time is up.
Now all the 6 participants has prepared their own creations.
What menu that will win everyone's heart?
Delicious meals are served. Judges, please try.
Okay. Next, we will request the participants to show their own creation.
The judges are currently tasting the snacks prepared by the participants.
What is the comments from judges about the snacks?
The lotus biscuit is really interesting.
It looks like a lotus from the outside, the fairiest of all flowers.
When it's eaten, so savoury, fragrant and sweet. The flavours are abundant.
Not bad./ Thank you, judge.
Really beautiful. Really fragrant, really tantalizing.
I want to eat one more./ This is the real fragrant of Lotus flower.
I only maintain its original form.
I really like her.
Gosh, really hooked by sis Cai-na.
Now in the judges' hand is snack from Dong Shan-cai.
It tastes really good.
I must say that your snack colour is really not attractive...
...or is it too yellow-ish?
Do you know what is the most important to win this competition?
Feeling...you know?
My snack name is an attractive Dong Xiao-wan's golden youth...
...that are soft, fragrant, tasty, and savory.
Do you twist your tongue?/ I want to know the reason behind the name.
Dong Xiao-wan is once a famous chef.
She loved to use flower as the cooking ingredients...
...and she created this snack.
Once, Mao Pi-jiang, her husband was sick and laid on the bed.
In order for her husband to recover quickly, she started to cook herself...
...and create this dish and named it Dong Sweet.
Despite being a simple snack,
...it has a beautiful romance behind it.
Only few people that can make this snack nowadays,
...especially a girl this young. Really unbelievable./ Right.
You little lady knows a lot.
Okay. Thank you Dong Shan-cai for creating Dong Sweet for us.
Now we are on to the next session.
Who will survive in this competition?
After the commercial break, we will know the result.
From a lemon, from a coconut.
With a fierce discussion among judges, the result from second session is out.
There will be 4 participants to enter the west versus east competition.
Let us invite judge Tang Jing-mei to announce the four participants.
After a long serious deliberation from judges, those who are going to the next round...
...of the cooking competition are miss Zhou Cai-na,
...Miss Lou Xi-ni, Miss Ling Chen-xi.
And the last one is...
...perhaps beyond everyone's expectation.
Congratulations, Miss Dong Shan-cai.
Shan-cai, great./ A Si.../ Shan-cai, great.
Shan-cai./ Did I hear right?
Please come forward.
Hurray./ Hurray.
Really good job. Dong Xiao-wan's Youth. No...
Soft and fragrant./ No... You twisted your tongue.
At any rate, Shan-cai's Dong Xiao-wan is the best.
Come.
Hurry...hurry look.
So tiring. Why does this cooking competition...
...is more tiring and tense compared the one I joined before?
Great.../ Okay, thank you to judges.
One of the four participants will be...
...the champion of Chinese cuisine this year.
Congratulation once again to all four successful participants.
The four of you please have a break for a moment at the backstage...
...before determining the winner. Stay tuned.
I am so pissed off.
It is understandable to lose from Cai-na,
...but also defeated by Dong Shan-cai. Such a bummer.
Did you bribe the judge?/ Yes./ I...
You are all defeated by her is a fact.
Demeaning other people does not make you better,
...it will just humiliate yourselves.
Shan-cai, have a hot drink to relax your mind./ Thank you.
Sis Zhou Cai-na, this is for you./ So nervous.
Don't know what will be up in the next session.
You can do it./ Thank you.
This is for you.
My name is Mei-zuo. Nice to know you.
I won't bother you anymore. I have something to do.
A Si, will you not support her?
Right, A Si. You were so happy,
...why are you not supporting her now?
Hurry. the competition is about to start./ That...
You...
Which one?/ What?/ Good.
What's good?
Your performance was good, should try again.
Reach a good performance once more.
Why are you laughing? Aren't you all that tell me to support her?
How are you everyone? This final Chinese cuisine competition is presented...
...by the famous kitchen lamp brand.
We invite Judge Zhang Jin-bao to explain all the competition rules.
People say water and dirt are the one supporting the human.
The flavours of the hometown, are in our heart forever.
In this final session, the participants will receive the hardest test.
Listen carefully.
The participants have to present a famous dishes from...
...the hometown in 45 minutes.
Anyone can cook a hometown dish...
...but who will be able to create them in 45 minute?
It is true. The dish we taught Shan-cai...
...at least needs 2 hours to finish.
There is only 45 minute, such a short time.
What are you waiting for? Aren't you going to the cooking station?
Zhou Cai-na is so smart,
...she can carve a sprig of chrysanthemum from
a chinese cabbage in such a short time...
...with such confidence.
Zhou Cai-na paint the chrysanthemum so pretty.
She is not learning to tattoo, why is she carving chrysanthemum?
A Shi./ What's the matter? This is not a carving competition,
...but a cooking competition./ I think she is having a hard time now.
You see.
A really difficult theme.
45 minutes to cook something from the hometown.
Shanghai's cuisine that I learn like white egg fried crab,
...bamboshoot seafood soup, steam fish, and 8 flavours duck.
They all need time. Except for stir-fry prawn.
Can not...
All right, now we can see that 3 participants are ready to pick...
...their cooking ingredients and go back to their cooking station.
Only Dong Shan-cai who has an empy basket.
Stupid. Why are you stunned? The time is not enough already, be hurry.
Don't you act impulsive. Shan-cai must be thinking what she wants to cook.
You're doing this will only cause her more panic.
What's up? Where is he going? What is happening?
This.../ What is happening?
Sir, please leave the shooting area.
Sorry, sir. We are in the middle of shooting. Please stay away from here.
You...what are you doing?
Shan-cai…
Apology, everyone. There is a little bit of issue.
Perhaps Miss Shan-cai's supporter is too enthusiastic...
...and come visit the cooking area.
Shan-cai... Shan.../ Please go away from here./ Shan-cai...
I know you warn me to win the competition.
I still have to pay the 1 million Yuan debt my father owed.
I can't give up so easily.
Sir, please go out./ Come.
Dao Ming-si, what should I do? My brain can not think.
You fool, go and get your ingredients.
Stupid. What should I choose?
Stupid, is your brain damage? Hurry think of a way out.
Stupid. It would be awesome if I know what to do.
Stupid. It is okay to forget everything.
Shan-cai, you should push your willpower./ Right, I must win.
I should have determination, I can do it.
Sorry, sir. Please go away from here.
Pineapple. Shan-cai is so interesting.
Shan-cai, you should have more trust of your own strength.
You have the chef blood running inside of you.
Shan-cai closing her eyes is so cute./ Cute?
I was so scared earlier./ Me too.
I don't know what will Shan-cai cook with pineapple.
My brother is too serious.
His face when breaking in was so stupid and funny.
He thought that he was saving a beautiful woman.
But I see that Shan-cai is not that calm, she might lose in this final session.
Shan-cai, this time you will lose from me./ Why?
Because I can instantly see how good the dish will be...
...only from the ingredients.
I already feel lucky that I can join the competition until now.
Perhaps I always win because of my luck.
Luck will not always follow you around.
All right, the final session of the Chinese cuisine competition...
...with the theme of hometown dish only have 2 minutes left.
The time is up. Everyone please stop moving.
Ready to present the dish.
All right. The competition is entering the most tense phase.
The judges is starting to try the dish presented by the participants.
What surprised me is that wenchang chicken usually...
...need to be broiled in soup for 3 hours...
...before it can generate the chicken delicacy.
Miss Zhou Cai-na, how can you present it...
...perfectly just in 45 minute?/ It is so easy.
I use a tremendous amount of chicken bones and wings.
Also onion, mushroom, potatoes,
...with a flexible fire temperature.
A soup boiled in 29 minutes could also generate...
...a perfect taste.
Only seeing how you cut the chicken is also surprising.
How can you do this cutting technique?
I was learning overseas.
I don't want to ask for living expenses to my parents...
...so I went to the market and bought a lot of leftover chicken bones.
Who would've want to listen so much nonsense?
With a lengthy practice...
If Shan-cai is the one talking, he would not be pissed off.
Creating Chinese cuisine, Kungpao chicken to treat friends.
This dish works really well.
Complimented by the prettiest Senior in Ming De until that point,
...this woman is too perfect./ Soft yam.
You are too much.
No, not at all.
If I am the judge, I will reward the first place to her.
Indeed very unified./ The bird's meat is getting tastier.
Next, we invite the judge to taste the dish presented...
...by the last participant, Miss Dong Shan-cai.
This is.../ Spicy soy noodle with 8 flavours.
What are you guys laughing at?
Doesn't she informed already that the theme is about hometown dishes?
It is because Spicy Soy noodle with 8 flavours is just so common.
This... Isn't Shan-cai already practice for a long time at Dao Ming Si's house?
Why does she make a simple dish?/ Right.
Dear, did you teach her to cook that dish?/ Nope.
Why do you think of cooking it?
Are you from Shanghai?/ Yes. I am raised in Shanghai.
Everytime I am sick and have no appetite,
...as long as I eat spicy soy noodle with 8 flavours,
...I feel all the other dish will taste good.
But everyone in here presenting a really difficult fancy dish,
...and you are presenting this simple one. Aren't you afraid of losing?
Of course I am.
But I think no matter fancy or simple,
...as long as having its own character, then it can compete with the others.
Spicy soy noodle with 8 flavours makes people enjoy their food everyday...
...must have some truth in it./ I think the taste is very special.
Did you mixed with pineapple?
Pineapple?
How could you think of mixing it together?
I never thought I would let go of my snobbiness
Seeing your tears my heart broke beyond reason
Life experience.
It seems Miss Shan-cai's life is a bit different than the others.
Perhaps there is a family member who planted pineapple.
The inspiration must come from you./ Who would've thought?
I just want to support her.
Who would've thought by looking at me, she could have so many inspirations.
Why? Can't she?/ She can...
True love is really unbeatable.
In spite of being a sincere answer, but perhaps the spicy soy noodle with 8 flavours...
...is the staff's meal in her father office?
You see the judges' faces. Will they persuaded by it?
I would let go of my snobbiness Seeing your tears
The competition result is out. I am so tense.
Don't you worry. Shan-cai will win it.
Holding hand
Don't look at me so tender like that.
I don't expect... I don't expect
Because I can puke.
Don't know...
Just want to hold you together flying to the milky way
All right, next we invite the judges to comment the performance of the participants...
...and rewarding the winner.
The answer is in my hand. Now I feel the tense like you all...
...because all of the four performers are so good.
Two of them are really talented. I will give a short comment.
Pigeon soup presented by Qian-ni is so fresh,
...however the meat was a bit hard.
Chen-xi can create the "Buddha jumps over the wall" menu...
...in such a short time however difficult it is.
Unfortunately, the fire is not enough.
Wenchang Chicken menu, from the cooking technique and garnish...
...and the flavour of the dish,
...Miss Zhou Cai-na presented it perfectly.
Miss Dong Shan-cai performance are also quite good, right?/ Yes.
She mixed pineapple into the spicy soy noodle with 8 flavours...
...to ease the spiciness for those who can't eat spicy foods.
This is an inventive new creation.
Why can she cut to the chase?
The paradigm that focus on the feature of the simple food ingredients...
...succeeding the spirit of new creation of Chinese cuisine.
Thank you.
Now we will invite the judges to announce the winner today.
Why are you afraid to look? I am not afraid.
Just see then./ Who will be the winner of 1 million Yuan?
Sis Zhuang.
Generally, Shan-cai's has a slim chance to win.
Winning or losing is not important.
I have to support the girl that my brother likes.
Whoever the winner will be, tonight we will celebrate.
The winner is...
