Corentin Delcroix — a popular food influencer born in Lille who is followed by 6 million Chinese fans online — prepares red mullet with potato scales, a dish created by a legendary French chef in the 1960s that requires intricate cutting skills to transform the potato into thin slices resembling fish scales.
"Audiences will notice that both China and France share a culinary pursuit, which is to make the dish presentation as exquisite as possible. We hope the audience will discover how food can serve as a platform for cultural exchanges and enhance mutual understanding about life," says Yang, the chief director.
Tang, the chief producer, concludes that by sharing human-interest stories from the judges, the program aims to ignite the audience's curiosity and inspire them to embark on a journey of exploration into the rich history and culture of both countries.
