I think the challenger could have done much better. Noodles is a huge staple in Chinese cuisine. A chef with so much knowledge should have been able to pick 4 or 5 dishes out of a hat and go at it.
I understand translating their speech, but did they really need to edit in the slurping? That seems silly to me, unless the slurping is for real, or the dubbers are trying to be funny.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not disrespecting Japanese culture. I was just saying the dubbers doing the slurping themselves, which I think is silly, for which I could have heard the tasters doing the slurping anyway.
I have taken notice about the slurping of ramen in some anime I have watched, so I was semi-aware of it.
That's actually a detail i really like about Japanese culture, in that they think a lack of certain table manners is a sign that you're really enjoying the food and a show of respect towards the cook. Besides, trying to make a "No slurping" rule on ramen would be like trying to enforce a "No swearing" rule on a man with Tourettes Syndrome. You just can't help it.
Man, that Zhou guy would make a fantastic ghost in an Asian horror movie. Especially when Chen came back to cook. It was like "Lalalala, cooking" then he turns around and...There he is! That actually made me jump
Tha Zhou guy is a total creeper. Honestly I believe he violated game rules. It was obvious that he talked to the challenger. Maybe he didn't offer "advice" but he stepped in bounds and communicated to him. No right.
WHERES PART 5!?

@RiggeDPuzzlE, the Slurping just sounds "dubbed". It actually is their actual sounds.

they should have given him 15 minutes. he must have turn everything down so it didn't overcook and had to turn heat up when he came back.

it was either that or have his finished noodles sit around for 30-40 minutes and be ruined by the time tasting occurred.
