The Cook-Off

There was a local inn, within Tolemac, which Sir-Lady Hterag would visit a lot, so she could make food for the many citizens of Tolemac.

One day.

A stranger walked in, but he was only a stranger to the people, for Hterag knew who he was.

" Monsieur Niplit " said Sir-Lady Hterag, as she watched the knight's every move.

Niplit walked over to a table, took some food, eat it, and then said;

" Disgusting "

Which made everyone gasp, for all in Tolemac praised Hterag's food as something heavenly.

Sir-Lady Hterag was not affected by his words, but she wanted to see if he could make something better.

So, Monsieur Niplit walked into the kitchen, where he made Coq Au Vin.

He represented his food, and the people ate goodly of it, they then praised Niplit for his skills, and the cook-off had now officially begun.

Several dishes were made;

Steak and Kidney Pie by Hterag.

Quiche Lorraine by Niplit.

Fish and Chips by Hterag, obviously.

Chicken Cordon Bleu by Niplit, how French!

Dish, after dish, after dish was made, enough to feed all of Tolemac for years!

But.

The Queen herself now came, as the final judge.

Sir-Lady Hterag had made Beef Wellington, while Monsieur Niplit had made Boeuf Bourguignon.

Queen Ruhtra tasted both dishes, she then meditated for a bit.

The Queen finally said;

" Both dishes are bad "

Both Sir-Lady Hterag and Monsieur Niplit felt their world's crumble, as no one had ever said something like that about their food.

The two chef-knights knew that they still had a lot to learn, but we all know that Queen Ruhtra lied.
