"After three months of competition, the two finalists are Master Liu Kit from Canton... and representing Hong-Kong," "Lung Kwan Bo." "The judges have decided there will be three challenges." "First, the preparation of rice." "Rice n°2." "Rice n°4." "Master Lung picked Tianjin rice." "The Tianjin climate is hot and dry." "Its rice has a tough texture." "Master Liu chose rice from southern Changjiang." "The south is humid." "The rice is dried out in the shaker, cracking its outer shell." "It becomes tender after cooking." "Comrade Liu's rice has a hint of lotus leaf" "underscoring the flavour of the rice." "Both chefs are really showing off their prowess." "The rice by Master Lung has a ginseng flavour which stays on the palate even after swallowing." "Thanks to this sensation it earns the higher score." "The first challenge has been won by Master Lung." "The 2nd challenge will test the chefs' sculpting skills." "Master Kit will carve his sculpture out of tofu." "Underwater, the process remains out of view." "Master Lung starts with a symbol." "It is a new method." ""The Treasure of China"!" "Master Lung has sculpted the Great Wall." "The symbol is a treasure chest." "It is reflected through the door." "Comrade Liu Kit?" "Your wife is not well, she's at the hospital." "Is it serious?" "It may be for the baby." "Come as fast you can." "I'm in the middle of a competition." "Try to be quick." "The winning entry in the 2nd challenge is Master Kit's tofu carving." "The contestants are tied." "The 3rd challenge will decide the winner." "Master Kit will prepare an albacore tuna soup, while Master Lung makes "The Pearl of the Sea-Dragon"." "Is my husband here?" "Is he here?" ""The Pearl of the Sea-Dragon"." "I quit." "Comrade Liu?" "Your wife left this for you." "Kit, you've chosen your career over me." "So, I too have made a choice." "I don't want to have to depend on you." "I need to feel free." "Take care of yourself." "I wish you luck, Cheuk Bing." "HONG-KONG 5 YEARS LATER" "Chef Auditions for Mandarin Hotel of Toronto" "We need Chinese chefs." "Well, you'll find many of them in Hong-Kong." "They're eager to come here." "N°15, let's see you make sweet-and-sour pork." "What did you put in there?" "I don't get it!" "The sauce you gave me is expired." "Look at the Best Before date." "It's time to judge, anyway." "What?" "Be ready." "The winners are :" "N°8, Master Cut," "N°21, Master Lam." "And..." "N°15, Master Sun." "Thank you!" "Drink up!" "You are true professionals." "You are disqualified." "We must commit to our work." "Not like our brother." "Here he comes." "Have a seat, Sun." "Want some chicken?" "So, you wanna be a chef... for shame." "Are you nuts?" "Ah, leave me alone!" "I've helped you guys with the loans long enough." "I'm tired of it." "Since my girl left for Canada," "I've wanted to follow her." "I've gotta become a chef, so I can go and be with her." "Don't give my guys crazy ideas like that." "Here's a 100 grand." "Uncle, we've made a lot of mistakes." "I fear for my future." "It's not so easy to change." " How can you ever be a chef?" " Why can't I?" "If I could have, I'd have changed." "I'd have been a teacher, fighting with my students all day." "You know how to fight." "Come see me, when you come to your senses." "Sun, has he changed your mind?" "Give uncle this money back." "He'll need it when his luck runs out!" " Sun!" " What is it?" "It's difficult becoming a chef." " Speak Mandarin!" " You're worried you'll get in trouble." "That could happen in any job." "Give my card to the owner of the Qing Han." "Tell him I recommended you." "Who are you?" "I work at Luk Yu restaurant." "Call me Bo." "Good luck!" "Lung Kwan Bo sent you?" "Yup." "Fung!" "You're friends?" "He's my uncle." "If Bo sent you, we'll get along great." "Thanks, Mr. Au." "Call me Master." "This punk wants to be a chef?" "Fung's rival sent him." "Heh, they'll get along great!" "Listen up!" "The new guy was sent by Lung Kwan Bo." "Hello!" "Come here." "You're new." "Take some food." " How?" " With your hands." "Take what you like." "50 chickens in bean sauce!" "Get on it!" "I need chicken, some peanuts and some peppers." "Where do I put it when I'm done?" "Ah, I get it." "Chicken in bean sauce." "Good!" "Take it apart and put everything back!" "You can do it." "Orders get cancelled sometimes." "Now!" "I gotta piss." "You're cute!" "You're new?" "I'm Au Ka Wai." "I'm Chiu Kong Sun." "The other hand." "What's with the boss's daughter?" "She likes to piss him off, for fun." "She doesn't like working here." "You're all useless!" "Come on!" "You come help me." "Oh, fish!" "I've killed fish before." "Bring me that fish!" "I'm going to bless it." " Bless?" " That's the rule for fish over 100 kg." "100 kg?" "I have to carry that?" "I have to kill that?" "Kill, yes!" "Or pay for it, if you want it as a pet." "Release the fish!" "Should we step in?" "Let him have some fun first." "They're all in on it!" "What a moron!" " It's not fresh." " It was just caught." "It's still moving." "It's really fresh!" "Get the fish you imbecile!" "What's the matter?" "Speak English." "You want me to help you?" "Yes, help me." "You talk to your dad in English?" "Yeah, to practice." "I have to know it if I'm gonna be a star." "Speak any other languages?" "French!" "Really?" "Get the fish, you idiot!" " I'm sick of this!" " No problem." "I'll never eat fish again!" "Next time, just get a smaller fish." "Damn fish!" "Opportunist!" "It stinks!" "I don't believe this fish!" "Be gentler with me than you were with the fish." "You have a lot in common." "Like what?" "That fish had enough wits to cheat death." "He's crazy!" "That was 10 000 down the drain." "I'll deal with him personally." "Why does he hate the new guy?" "It's Bo's nephew." "The boss was in line to be the president of the Chefs' Association." "And Bo got it instead of him." "Loan sharking is not a good business." "How many of you have accepted Uncle Chuen's money?" "Sun, you're having a hard time learning to cook." "You need money if you want to leave!" "A boat can smuggle you to Polora." "Then you can go to Australia or America." "The interest rates are too high." "You're good with numbers." "But there's more than numbers to truth." "Sun, we talked to Uncle Chuen." " He'll give it to us at 30 %." " We lend at 60 %." " We make 30 %!" " Shut up!" "Take a salt shaker and open it." "If none of you answer me in 10 seconds, drink the salt like a shot." "10 000 at 30 % interest and 2 weeks late, comes to how much?" "10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!" " Say it!" " 16 % interest." "No, on 100 000, we only touch 90 000." "The interest rate should be 18,77 %." "There's no more salt." "Want pepper?" "What?" "If someone has owed money for over 3 months and then kills himself, there's nothing to collect." "How'll you pay back Uncle Chuen?" "Sun, here's the pepper." "You have the pork tongues all ready!" " The cash?" " Wednesday at Fook Lam Court." "That's so long for a simple thing like that!" "Love is just a little game." "Nothing more than that." "To love, the hearts of men" "Aren't but a little fun." "What the hell is this?" "How dare she sing?" "Ask her!" "I can do better than that." "I'm going up there!" "We cheat ourselves." "What's love?" "What's passionate heat?" "Guys and girls just play the game to cheat." "If you're in love, better play it smart!" "If you're in love, don't let it steal your heart." "What can a man do with a woman?" "That chick's gotta be high!" "I'm gonna try to pick her up." "Congratulations!" "Sun likes that crack head!" "If Sun gets with this chick, he won't go to Canada." "And he won't leave us!" "Sister-in-law!" "Do you like him, will you go out with him?" "Please!" "Shit!" "Don't let her get away." "Let go my purse!" "Get her a taxi!" "There are none here." "I don't care, figure it out!" "Call a cab." "For sister-in-law." "Hurry up." "You don't even have a car!" "You want a ride home?" "Come along so you can give me a ride when I go home!" "Bitch!" "Chill out a little." "Why?" "Don't you want to get along with me?" "Right now, I do!" "You're nuts, that's dangerous!" "You look better without it." "What is love?" "I don't wanna hear you sing!" "OK." "Let me entertain you." "Faster, faster!" "There's a speed trap." "I'll take care of it." "I'm tired, let's go!" "Damn, he didn't flip out." "Damn, that little bitch!" "New job?" "Your dad promoted me." "I'll help." "Alright." "Pick one." "This one." "It's a royal flush!" "Why did you and Fan Jan break up?" "She just stared at me all the time." "Like she was a contract killer." "She's a bitch!" "That's why." "I like nice girls." "Like the Japanese." "I look sort of Japanese." "Especially as I'm waking up." "Before my eyes adjust." "You should be Japanese!" "Are you Japanese?" "No, but I like freedom." "Wait!" "What am I doing with this bamboo?" "I'm giving it to you." "To dry my laundry on?" "I don't want to work in the restaurant." "I want to be free, and travel." "Alright, have fun!" "Me, I want a quiet life with someone who loves me." "I've found a guy I like." "I'm here!" "Where are you going?" "To Canada." "I've found a steady job as a chef." "Work on your singing!" "You'll make it one day!" "Take care of yourself!" "I'm Japanese." "Look out!" "Miss Au!" "Instead of flirting with him, go help over there." "Wait a minute!" "You want me to go help?" "Yes, please." "No problem." "Here, you play!" "See you later." "My cards." "You can't even do the dishes!" "Take out the trash!" "My cards!" "How many?" " Ten." " This way." "Sister-in-law, your shoes!" "It's broken." "Yeah, what!" "You should take it, less 30 %." "You didn't do that!" "Don't even think about doing that." "We're meeting Darkie Cheong to negotiate at Qing Han restaurant." "What?" "No." "Cheong, you want to keep 30 % more than agreed." "That's the only problem here." "Your sister-in-law injured ours." "The 30 % is for her care." "70 000!" "There's nothing wrong with her!" "Doesn't look good." "Better call the cops." " What are you?" " Your daughter." " Your face!" " It's a disguise." "Don't drive me mad." "The triads are negotiating here." "I'm calling the cops." "No need, we're the anti-gang unit." "We've been on these guys for a while." "Will there be shooting?" "Do you have insurance?" " Yeah." " Perfect." "Boss, who's serving them?" "Oh yeah... someone must be sacrificed." "Sun!" "Maybe you can be a waiter." "Work tables 9 and 10." "Sit." "What's up?" "Cheong don't make up stories over 30 000!" "My girl is really hurt." "Really." "So, you want to keep more?" " Are you armed?" " No." " You have a gun?" " No." "We have one in here, Sun." "Get it and be ready." "Where did I put it?" "Fuck!" "Let's settle this." "Do we have insurance?" "Either way, we should get more." "Your ex is about to get embarrassed in front of you." "I'll count to 3." "If I get to 3, you lose." "If I win, you pay my guys." "If you lose, you lose 70 000." "And you apologize to my girl." "Perfect!" "1... 2..." "3..." "Wait." "Pay!" "I told you." "I see why you got rid of her." "How can you say that?" "Get her outta here!" "That wasn't fair." "He's not that strong." "I'll fix this." "Careful!" "Thanks." "Just pay them." "I tell you to wait on them and you fight them!" "I'm the owner." "This is an honour." "Please, try my dim sum." "No!" "It's on!" "Don't shoot!" "Come back tomorrow." "You should be after the criminals." "The police should be fired." "You wounded a cop." "Get out of here!" "You're lucky, someone took the fall for you." "Don't worry big brother." "I'm not your big brother!" "OK, big big brother." "I told you this would end badly." "Like there's not enough violence." "Master!" "I'm not your master!" "Lung Kwan Bo wants me in a coffin." "Give me a chance." "Go to hell!" "We'll get rid of him." "Boss, someone's here for you." "The president of Super Group." "I'm Au Siu Fung." "What can I do for you?" "Do you know how to make the "Imperial Feast"?" "Of course." "I was taught at Chin Hing restaurant." "I know their manager." "But what's your name?" " Au Siu Fung." " There are always impostors." "Can I see your kitchen?" "What about the regulations?" "Who are you?" "You can't just waltz into the kitchen." "We're Super Group." "We'll be in touch." "Here's our info." "He wants to make stir-fried beef?" "That's nothing." "There are 2 difficult dishes :" "stir-fried beef and sweet-and-sour pork." "To make stir-fry, you can't use too much oil." "But if you use too little, it burns." "Each noodle must taste the same." "It'll be too strong if you overdo it on the sauce." "Fry the beef." "But keep its flavour." "It should be cooked medium-rare." "That way it stays tender and savoury." "When you plate it," "There shouldn't be any extra sauce or oil." "That way, it's light and healthy." "Fung, what's he doing?" "That seals the flavour in inside the beef." "It's an everyday dish!" "Taste my beef stir-fry." "It smells good." "It is good!" "The noodles are crisp and fragrant." "The beef is juicy." "Perfect!" "Let me show you my sweet-and-sour pork." "Sweet-and-sour pork?" "The sauce should not overpower the meat." "The outside should be crispy." "Pork cutlets!" "Flour!" "His technique is strange!" "It's so the meat keeps its own flavour." "Sauce!" "Syrup!" "Ice!" "This isn't original." "You've shown me nothing." "Are you saying I cheated?" "I don't like dishonest people." "I'm putting on the Imperial Feast of the Qing and the Han." "You can be my apprentice." "Your apprentice?" "What could you teach me?" "The Imperial Feast." "We'll see which one of us can prepare it." "Have you ever made it?" "The feast was put on twice in Hong-Kong." "Fung was involved in one of them." "Really?" "It takes a month of preparation." "It lasts 3 nights." "Multiple dishes each night." "Let's invite some famous chefs to judge." "We'll see who is best." "If you lose, I get your restaurant, and become your boss." "50 million?" "That's right, I'll bet 50 million." "Can you refuse that?" "We'll help." "Why not?" "Take him on!" "Sign the contract." "You could win 50 million." "Come on!" "Don't be scared." "Deal!" "I'll see you at the tournament." "You're back?" "I forgot my helmet." "Get it and get out!" "The stock is rising?" "Buy more!" "That restaurant isn't worth 50 million." "Cuisine is the kingdom of the Chinese." "I'll conquer it bit-by-bit." "I want to run Hong-Kong's entire restaurant business." "That restaurant has a long history." "It'll be my first takeover." "We're all in this together." "This time, we're gonna win." "You'll be paid for 14 months this year." "I'll raise your wages 15 %." "Fung, I quit." "I quit." "Why quit?" "The Super Group president said that if you lose," "I'll be in charge of the restaurant." "The guys will earn 30 % of the profits." "You traitors!" "Don't say that." "For us, it's just better if you lose." "With the way you treat us, it's for the best." "He passed out!" "The boss wants our pity!" "He'll be OK, even despite that crazy daughter of his." "Master!" "I'm sorry!" "I'll help you save the restaurant." "Did you hear me?" ""The Imperial Feast of the Qing and the Han"." "Unicorn..." "Moonlight on the sacred plant..." "Mandarin duck..." "I need something easier." "Crab in a lotus leaf wrap." "It's like making eggs." "Just take it easy!" "I just want your meat!" "After, I'll let you go." "You're so big!" "To hell with you!" "Three eggs." "2 teaspoons of soy sauce." "Dash of salt." "And now, mix and wrap." "It's gotta work this time!" "Why?" "It's burning!" "How the hell?" "What does that look like?" "Can you serve that to anyone?" "We need help." "Who can help?" "Lung Kwan Bo from Luk Yu restaurant." "Do you have any idea how long it takes?" "Do you know anyone who can make it?" "Do you even know what the "Imperial Feast" is?" "The feast is composed of 108 dishes." "It lasts 3 days, there are 6 sittings." "Varied styles of cooking must be used." "It's the soul of Chinese cuisine." "Under Manchurian rule, the Han could only occupy the lower ranks." "To unite the Qing and the Han, Emperor Kangxi put on a banquet for his 60th birthday." "It was a mix of Han dishes and Qing dishes." "Han and Qing representatives worked together to organize the feast." "That's how it got the name "The Imperial Feast of the Qing and the Han"." "After the Wuchang uprising, commoners got access to the royal recipes." "The Beijing branch of cuisine was established." "But its followers divided up into different styles." "Their methods began to differ." "Master Wong cooks in the Niu style, and your dad in the Chiu style." "And you, Bo?" "I don't know how to make that feast." "No?" "But there is someone who knows." "He's in Canton." "In Canton." "Fish and fermented soya." "Is Master Kit here?" "Who?" "Master Kit." "He died a while ago." "What do we do now?" "Kit, there are 2 prices on this." "How much is it?" "Ahh, damn it!" "His name is Kit!" "Great, you brought your own booze!" "Will 6 bottles be enough?" " What can I get you?" " Seafood Rice." "What would you like?" "Stir-fried beef." "Don't draw attention to us!" "I don't want him to recognize me." "You can tell a chef by what he eats." "What did he get?" "What did that guy order?" "Seafood Rice." "Is this for that guy?" "I'll take it to him." "The boss wouldn't like that." "And you, would you like it?" "Who gives a shit about the boss!" " Think he'll be pissed?" " That's what I want." "If he gets mad, he'll go to the kitchen." "What are you doing?" "You've made a lot of dough?" "No, I worked in a hair salon." "Does that itch?" "Is the water hot enough?" "My head is itchy." " Oh, let me?" " Don't touch me!" "Do not touch me." " Enough?" " Go!" "Seafood Rice." "There's no price tag!" "He'll eat anything." "I wouldn't want to try his cooking!" "Let's check his place for any evidence he was ever a chef." "He won't let us do that." "If he doesn't, we'll kill him." "Alright!" "He's drunk enough." "He's had more than a few." "It smells like booze." "No, it's shrimp!" " Where's Queen's Road East?" " In the east end." " Where do you live?" " In the west end." " Where exactly?" " 3rd floor, n°17." " Let's go!" " We'll take him too." "If we don't, we'll look like burglars." "It stinks of liquor!" "Get the door!" "I'll look for the light switch." "The bastard's heavy!" "He's a sex maniac!" "He'll jump on me if he wakes up!" "What are you doing?" "Hold him back!" "I can't!" "Get him off me!" "He's the wrong guy, let's get outta here!" "It's him!" ""Master Kit, winner of the 18th National Cooking Championship."" "He's the best chef in the world." "Don't puke on me!" "My clothes!" "We got him." "He's a bum!" "He's dressed in rags." "He's a nut." "What do we do now?" "Huh?" "What?" "There's someone else we have to find!" "Thanks." "We've been looking for you all over." "First in Japan, then we heard you were in Shanghai." "No need to speak Mandarin, I understand Cantonese." "I'm Sun, I work for a development agency." "This is my own business card." "Sorry!" "This is our development zone." "Not as big as Pudong, but it's a commercial centre." "We'll have a hotel, a golf course, and even a crematorium." "The plans are facing you." "As you like." "The environment is a priority for us." "There'll be farms, plantations, protected zones." "Isn't this area a little too built up?" "This amusement park will be converted to process compost." "We might also add a Nuclear Power Plant." "And an artificial lake." "Is Mr. Liu there?" "Do you know when he'll be back?" "You don't know!" "You're not in charge." "Who should I speak to?" "What about this merry-go-round?" "You want to develop our nation." "An old comrade!" "I can say it again?" "Sure, but in a little bit." "We'll tear down these public toilets." "Don't worry, you'll each get a share." "You must come speak to my manager." "You want to develop the nation." "Don't say it again." "Got it?" "Who's your manager?" "You know him, but you may not recognize him." "I have a great memory." "I know the Canton evacuation plan by heart." "There's an agency in Canton, but there's no Mr. Sun." "There are three of them in Hong-Kong." "A loan shark, a homosexual, a taxi driver." "Which one are you?" "Miss Cheuk, listen!" "A friend wants to see you." "Miss Cheuk..." "He really wants to see you." "You'll be delighted." "You want to develop the nation!" "You must meet someone!" "You can't catch me!" "Let's take the car." "Let me in!" " What are you doing?" " Do you want to catch that girl?" "This way!" "How do you know?" "I feel it!" "There!" "Can you see me?" " Let's get her." " What is it?" "A purse snatcher on the 3rd floor!" "Open the door!" "Anyone in there?" "Someone wants to see you!" "She stole my purse." "Quick!" "This way, here!" "How do you know?" "I'm psychic." "Open the door!" "I have a phone, should I call the police?" "Alright." "Why are you knocking on that door?" "There's a thief inside." "You live here?" "I'm the caretaker." "Hurry!" "That's not her." "Check out this wall!" "You haven't changed." "5 years, I've waited for you." "Really?" "That's great." "You'll be happy to know your son is getting big." "Really?" "Our child was born?" "You did this on purpose!" "I only want him to prepare an imperial feast." "Do you know anyone else who can do that?" "I don't give a shit!" "Have some compassion!" "He's not the type for that." "You're more than a friend, you're his wife." "Once, I was down." "He told me I had to get myself up." "Now, it's the same thing." "Let him save himself." "Don't worry!" "Let go, I'll catch you!" "I can't, I'm scared!" "Be brave!" "I'm brave, I'm letting go!" "No!" "There's a hole." "Now, you say don't let go?" "I've proven I'm brave." "She stole the purse!" "She needs help!" "She can't jump down, we must help." "Help!" "Careful." "Grab on to me." "Don't be scared." "Grab on." "Tighter!" "Don't grab my pants." "Don't cry." " That was nothing." " I was scared." "We landed well." "It was a misunderstanding." "We know each other." "Thanks, chief." "We'll take Kit's place while he's in Hong-Kong." "Nice to meet you!" "Boss!" "Master Kit, you're back!" "The restaurant industry welcomes you back." "I'm from the North-West Restaurant." "I'm from the Chefs' Association." "The Drunk Fairy Restaurant." "Best Restaurant." "Imperial Restaurant." "Golden Dragon Restaurant." "I admire what you've done." "Despite all my success," "I can't ever hope to get such applause, and such respect." "Qing Han Restaurant." "Do I look Japanese?" "Is it a wig?" "The red made me look like a pig." "What about now?" "I look like a mushroom." "Booze!" "Master Kit, allow me." "Soup-filled Fish." "I've waited a long time for this." "Impressive!" "That looks tasty." "He put in little meatballs, too." "Too salty." "Too bitter." "Disgusting." " Impossible." " Let me try." " The fish must have been bad." " Too bitter." "It looked good!" "Kit, you know how to cook, but you've lost your sensibility for it." "What do you mean?" "He drank so much that he no longer has the touch, the feel for cooking." "His senses have been dulled." "We have to retrain him." "Let's start with taste." "All the alcohol destroyed his sense of taste." "Cool, then heat his taste buds." "That'll stimulate circulation." "These flavours will kick-start his tongue." "Don't move." " Nothing." " Maybe we're too late?" "Impossible!" "His legs must be strong for him to stand all day in the kitchen." "Let's work on his sense of smell." "We'll clean out his nose." "It's filthy in there!" "Give him some pure oxygen." "Breathe slowly." "It feels good!" "Hey!" "Who farted?" "Sorry, I was only thinking about it." "Is his sense of smell back?" "Maybe he's got a super-nose now?" "Something's wrong." "Why?" "Because I farted." "The 3rd sense is sight." "You have to be able to see the food you're cooking." "This'll sharpen your eyesight in a tight, smoky space." "They key is inside." "Find it to get out." "Start the smoke!" "He's gonna cough like crazy." "Where is that key?" "These onions are gonna choke me." "I'm passing out!" "Where is that key?" "Where is that key?" "I can't take this." "Let's go!" "I'm outta here!" "Where's the exit?" "Help!" "Kit is quiet." "Did he faint?" "We should save him." "Master Kit has the talent." "His eyes are sharp again, he got out before you." "I'm not the one who needs the training!" "Acupuncture helps the hearing." "What?" "I didn't say anything." "I saw your lips move." "Bo, are you messing with her brain?" "What are you hearing?" "Commercial Radio 1." "Now, it's Commercial Radio 2." "Maybe I put one in the wrong place." "What song is on?" "Leon Lai." "By Leslie Cheung." "Where's the photo of my Japanese girl?" "You can't tear up my picture!" "Wait, I'm not done punishing you!" "Don't look at me!" "His 5 senses are back." "But he's just a soulless shell." "Sorry I'm late." "What's with you two?" "Listen." "I heard you." "The soul is the heart." "What?" "Cooking takes passion." "It must be done from the heart." "There's a problem!" "Where is Lung Kwan Bo?" "I don't know." "I'm just an employee." "What an attitude for an employee!" "Liar!" "I'll take care of it!" "Stay here!" "Who was it they were looking for, huh?" "Let the police know." "Call the police?" "Dial 999." "Hide!" "Can we talk?" "I'm working here." "Master Bo, have a drink." "I wanna fight, too!" "who called the police?" "I did." "I want to make a statement." "New bet?" "If you lose, you come and work as a dishwasher here at the Qing Han." "If the Qing Han loses," "I'll fry your right hand." "I'll make a contract, we can sign it tomorrow." "Fine." "No, it was him!" "Let go!" "Gimme that!" "Steamed fish, egg, and vegetables." "Pork meatball soup." "I made it for you." "I haven't cooked for you in a long time." "You always said my cooking was bad." "It's not the best of the best, but it's not bad at all." "Being used to the best, it's hard to appreciate the rest." "I'm so busy I don't eat regularly." "I haven't had your cooking in so long." "I'm so busy." "I've stopped eating meat, and become a vegetarian." "So why eat that?" "I want you to cook again so I can love food again." "When you make the imperial feast, do it for me." "For you... it will all be for you." "Wow!" " Take it." " Careful." "Look at this." "Here's your little Japanese." "I thought you burned it." "I'm not that cruel." "And you tore up my photo!" "I'm sorry." "What's more important?" "A girl or her picture?" "Both." "If you love her, you still would, even if the photo was ash." "There's no need to burn pictures." "I'm jealous of that picture." ""The Imperial Feast of the Qing and the Han" tournament begins now!" "The chefs are required to prepare 3 main dishes in 3 days." "Master Fung from Qing Han restaurant versus master Wong of Super Group." "Please meet our judges," "The 2nd generation chef and owner of Imitation restaurant," "Master Hau How Tin." "Consultant for the food industry, Mr. To." "From Japan, an expert in the history of the Han, Mr. Kawasaki." "The judging will be based on appearance, smell, taste and presentation." "We begin with "The Door of the Dragon"." "18 dishes make up the feast of the dragon door." "The first challenge is to prepare the main dish of the feast, a bear paw." "I'm making a "Bear Paw on the Snow"." "So I'll use a paw from a polar bear." "That's not savoury!" "It sat in a a marinade for 3 days." "Then I sautéed it with onion and white wine." "Then, it was deboned." "A plank!" "I hope he drops it on the ground!" "What is he doing?" "It's not a traditional technique." "A new type of massage?" "Golden sturgeon soup." "Sturgeon is rarely used in soup." "It's a velouté." "There are many types of sturgeon." "This is the best for soups." "It's almost impossible to unite so many ingredients." "Pressured syringe." "I'm injecting it with liquid nitrogen." "It has no negative effect on the meat." "What's he doing?" "Giving anesthesia." "Plastic surgery!" "It's not the time for jokes!" "Sturgeon caviar is the best in the world." "The warmed liquid nitrogen creates a slight pressure so the paw absorbs the soup." "It's inflating!" "It's huge!" "What does that do?" "I can't believe it." "Now, it's chilled to -10 ° C." "I'll sculpt some pears in the meantime." "It's pretty and elegant." "It's been chilled long enough." "Here is my "Paw on the Snow"." "The judges may sample it now." "Delicious, a bear paw filled with cold soup!" "So many different flavours!" "The taste of sturgeon is captured in the meat." "I can taste the fish and the bear all at once." "And the sculpted pears," "appetizing." "They counter any fat." "Refreshing, just like snow itself." "A circle represents a positive mark, an X a negative one." "The number of circles at the end of a challenge decides the winner." "It's time to see the marks." "Mr. Kawasaki, 10 out of 10." "Master Hau, 10 out of 10." "Mr. To, 10 out of 10." "10/10." "The best we can do is tie." "Let's do our best." "I will be making a "Magic Paw"." "The bear is from northeastern China." "The paw can be braised." "Myself, I prefer to steam it." "What's the point of that?" "I add wild honey." "I will carve a melon." "Let me." "I'm using swallows' livers as decorative trim." "I'll put the paw into a swallow's nest." "That's marvelous." "Honeyed bear paw." "The sauce will coat the nest." "What a Master!" "The "Magic Paw"!" "The beeswax absorbed the flavour of the meat." "Very savoury!" "Delicious!" "The judges' marks are," "Master Hau, 10 out of 10." "Mr. To, 10 out of 10." "We have a tie in the first challenge!" "Tie?" "Do you know what "eating" means?" "I thought they had taste." "Tonight, we've seen the "dragon's door" feast." "This Japanese has his own opinions." "The "Cold Paw of the Dragon" by Master Wong is quite a marvellous dish." "He's smart." "This Japanese must be nuts!" "The bear paw is the 6th plate on the day's menu." "Fish is the 5th plate." "So, according to the menu, fish is repeated in Master Wong's feast." "Thus, the winner must be Qing Han restaurant." "Traitor!" "Qing Han restaurant wins the first challenge!" "Tomorrow's challenge will be preparing an elephant trunk." "The second challenge begins." "I'm making "The Climb to the Mountaintop"." "This trunk is from Thailand." "It was steamed." "And then braised." "Then simmered with various fowl." "Nail clippers." "Now, the final steps." "That doesn't sound right." "The flame isn't strong enough." "Turn it up." "He's on fire!" "Tonight, boiled elephant trunk." "Here's the frozen trunk." "I coated it with yogurt 15 days ago." "Trunk meat is excellent." "Today, you'll discover a new method of preparing the trunk." "How did the napkin catch fire?" "Someone put phosphorus on it." "How's your hand?" "Let's keep going." "I can't do any cutting." "Make sure you use the sharp side of the knife." "Ginseng boiled with chicken and spices." "Did you nick yourself?" "Put the cubes into the casserole." "Don't look at what they're doing." "The tongs broke!" "It is ready!" "Notice the elegance." "It is perfect." "The chef from Han Qing did not complete the challenge." "Super Group is the automatic winner." "I'm sorry." "I know saying that has no point." "It's useless." "Delicious!" "This has to be better than Wong Wing's dish." "It's still juicy." "Let's concentrate." "We have to get ready for tomorrow." "Who's gonna do it?" "Are you gonna sharpen that blade into eternity?" "Here's the key." "It's illegal to kill a monkey." "So what do we do?" "Drop out?" "If we don't do it, we'll lose." "But, look, he's so cute!" "You didn't have a problem when we caught him yesterday!" "There's no other choice." "The knife." "Let me." "You wanna do it?" "No, I want to leave." "I'm coming too." "I have to use the bathroom." "It's all you, buddy!" "No problem." "After 2 challenges, we have a tie." "The best prepared monkey brain will decide the winner." "Please welcome our challengers." "Representing Qing Han..." "Master Kit must be scared and decided to quit?" "Representing Qing Han..." "Has the challenge started?" "It is time." "If Qing Han isn't represented, they will be eliminated." "You may begin." "This evening, I will make monkey with shark." "To keep it savoury, the brain must be cooked very quickly." "But its aroma is unpleasant." "So, to neutralize the scent," "I'll use a shark fin." "It has a strong odour to cover that of the monkey." "It stimulates human brutality." "Successful men love shark fin." "I'll fry it in oil." "As the aromas mix, the taste becomes excellent." "I add powdered shark teeth." ""The Monkey Crosses the Volcano."" "It is ready!" "Judges, try my monkey with shark." "It tastes primitive and wild." "The brain and the shark fin are exquisite." "10 out of 10." "10 out of 10, obviously." "Some more?" "The monkey with shark is a magical dish." "But this brain..." "Whatever you're gonna say," "I'm the only contestant!" "There's only 5 minutes left." "Qing Han can't come up with anything." "Wrong!" "Monkey brain must be fresh." "It should be eaten within 3 minutes of harvesting." ""Golden Eyes and Brain of Fire."" "Cooking fresh food is pointless." "It must be savoured with its natural flavour as the highlight." "It's enough to scald it with hot oil." ""Golden Eyes and Brain of Fire." Taste it." "The Japanese are renowned for our raw food." "But no sashimi can compete with this monkey brain." "This is no ordinary monkey." "It's a snowy mountain monkey, or a monkey with 6 ears." "Regarding the imperial feast," "I declare this dish to be the best of them all." " What do you think?" " I agree." "Please submit your marks." "According to the marks given by the three judges, the winner is..." "Animal Protection Agency." "It seems you've been cooking with protected animals." "Me, I obey the law." "In fact, I used a goat brain." "That isn't illegal." "But, my opponent is cruel." "He killed a monkey by scalding its brain with oil." "Arrest him!" "The audience are witnesses." "We guessed your plan." "That wasn't a monkey" "We made that monkey brain." "How?" "It's tofu." "We gave it the right taste." "Thanks to my preparation, it became a brain." "We let it simmer with various fowl brains." "So the tofu absorbed the flavour of brains." "Coconut hid the taste of soya." "Everyone believed it was a brain." "The monkey skull is also just a coconut." "So it's not a brain!" "They cheated!" "They should lose!" "You cheated too." "I still used a brain." "You went too far by using tofu!" "Stop arguing." "The judges must deliberate." "No one used a monkey brain." "Your abilities with the 5 senses are exceptional." "The marking system isn't fit to determine this." "Each dish is sublime." "Kit and Bo used tofu." "That goes way above any culinary talent." "While Master Wong's attitude throughout the tournament..." "Qing Han restaurant takes it." "So, the winner is Qing Han restaurant." "How's the business in San Francisco?" "It's going great." "Love is just a little game..." "Ka Wai is in the kitchen!" "Giving instructions the cooks." "Is she going to come out?" "Are the pig eyes ready?" "Has Sun written you?" "No, he's probably on a honeymoon." "And the sparkling water?" "Wash it and start again." "That's shark fin, you can't use water!" "What's going on in here?" " Where's the roast piglet?" " We don't have batteries." "The eyes won't light up." "Use candles instead." "Go and sit down." "Happy birthday..." "It's a wedding banquet, not a birthday party!" "Need some help, my dear?" "Damn right." "I'm not qualified for this." "I found you an assistant." "Look." "Give me that!" "I never went to Canada." "You're prettier than that Japanese chick." "It's hot as hell wearing a wig!" "Where are they?" "Did they get a divorce?" "Get married quick, get divorced quick." "There's not enough!" "Lower the microphone." "Perfect." "To your health!"
