Chapter Eighty-Three: An Inexplicable Sense of Familiarity Three Watches
When Lin Zitan and Zhang Jing arrived at Per Se, they saw Chen Lin holding a girl in his hand and waiting there.
"Hey, you're finally here. Seeing them, Chen Lin immediately took two steps forward with a smile.
"You guys are so early?" Lin Zitan smiled and said hello to Chen Lin and his girlfriend.
"I'm a foodie, and you don't know, when I heard that I came here to eat, Shirley was very happy, I heard that this restaurant is too difficult to book!" Chen Lin said, patting his girlfriend's shoulder excitedly.
"It seems that you two are quite compatible, both are foodies, haha~" Zhang Jing also smiled when he said it.
"Let's go, inside this blue gate. Lin Zi walked in front of him with familiarity.
"Yo, you've been here before, it looks like we're going to mess with you, and I just said that I don't know how to order food to make a fool of myself!" Chen Lin said with a smile.
"Actually, the last time I came here, I ate and drank, but every dish here is very special, and you can try it if you have money. Lin Zitan said that he had opened the door, and gentlemanly held the door to let the others go in first.
"Hello, do you have a reservation?" asked the blonde at the front desk with a sweet smile.
"Yes, Mr. Lin, half past five, four. After speaking, Lin Zitan also reported his mobile phone number to her. Then Lin Zitan paid the deposit for four people according to the request of the front desk lady.
The 9-course option, one person bets three hundred, and four people cost 1,200 dollars, which is not all the cost of the meal, and the final amount depends on the number and grade of the meal ordered by several people.
"Alright, now the four of you, please come with me. After paying the deposit, the front desk lady took four menus in her hand and walked forward with a swaying posture.
Four people walked through the lobby, went down the stairs and were arranged in the hall by the window, the view here is the best, the last time I ate was more restrained, this time Lin Zitan finally had the opportunity to see the outside scenery from this upstairs, it feels really unique.
Outside the window is the busy Columbus Circle, and a little further away is Central Park, which is sunny today, so you can still see the characteristic horse-drawn carriages around Central Park in the distance at half past five.
"The environment here is really good~" Chen Lin couldn't help but sigh.
"Is the environment good?" Zhang Jing stretched out his head to look out, he had stayed in a hotel near this before, which overlooked almost half of New York City and the whole of Central Park, so he didn't feel much of the scenery he was seeing so far.
"We're here to eat, not to see the scenery, it's okay here!" Lin Zi said lightly, trying to pretend to have seen the world.
"Yes, yes, let's see what to eat? I read the newspaper that the food here is exquisite and delicious, what is the specific situation, Danile said?" Chen Lin hurriedly said with a dogleg.
"Well, actually, I really came to eat last time, and they had already ordered it before I came, but I remembered a signature dish. ”
So Lin Zitan found the appetizer oyster caviar he ate last time on the menu. In addition, Lin Zitan ordered several seafood dishes and a much-praised grilled lamb chops. Everyone ordered a bunch of food according to their own preferences, because Lin Zitan told them that the portion was small.
Before the meal, each person was given a salmon cone. Lin Zitan doesn't like to eat sweets very much, but he still ate two bites a little and thought it was good, while Zhang Jing didn't eat a bite, in his own words, people should keep their stomachs and eat well!
Chen Lin's girlfriend liked this little cone very much, and she was very happy to eat, Lin Zitan secretly glanced at her, feeling that this girl had an inexplicable sense of familiarity. But after thinking about it, Lin Zi came to the conclusion that it was probably because he had seen it once before.
"This is really delicious~" Chen Lin's girlfriend still looked unsatisfied after eating her little cone, which made Chen Lin want to give him the portion that Zhang Jing didn't eat. But out of dignity or other considerations, Chen Lin hesitated again and again but held back.
Then the waiter served the oyster caviar that Lin Zitan strongly recommended, Zhang Jing tasted it very carefully, and concluded that it was not as good as the oysters they ate at the Fish Bar last time, so angry that Lin Zitan scolded him for being tasteless.
Lin Zitan, who originally thought that there would be no surprises, was suddenly amazed by a dish that had just come up, which looked like an owl standing on a tree branch from above.
The vegetable bun is filled with Boston lobster meat and Chinese-style garlic sprouts, which are a stunning combination of the two when steamed. The special lobster tartar sauce is served with fresh black truffle, kraft cabbage, dill, fennel root, corn flower and other fragrant vegetables.
It was not only Lin Zitan who was amazed, but the other three people were also amazed by this dish, and Zhang Jing also asked for a foie gras and a grilled steak. Lin Zitan ordered lamb chops this time, so I don't know how Zhang Jing feels, but looking at the way he eats with his stuffy head, he thinks it should be good.
"Wow K, this steak is really amazing! It's the best steak I've ever tasted!" Chen Lin couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice as he ate the main meal he ordered.
"This smoked salmon of mine is also delicious~" Chen Lin's girlfriend also couldn't hide her surprise and whispered.
"What about Zhang Jing, your steak is not delicious?" Lin Zitan looked at Zhang Jing with an indifferent face, and couldn't help but ask.
"It's okay, it's not amazing, but it's okay. Zhang Jing and Chen Lin ordered the same steak, but considering that everyone's taste is different, Lin Zitan only said that his evaluation was acceptable, and then said that his feeling for lamb chops was also considered a mid-to-upper rating.
This time they ate for more than three hours, and after the last dessert was served, the waiter brought a large box of truffles for the guests to choose from, and she carefully served them on a plate. After that, the waiter handed over a small silver round box, and after opening it, Chen Lin's girlfriend's tears of surprise were about to flow out! Because it was handmade nougat, as well as macarons of various colors, and truffles!
"Wow, this is too surprising!" After the waiter left, Chen Lin's girlfriend called out quietly.
"As long as you girls like, what's delicious here, it's all sweet and greasy~" Chen Lin smiled and stroked the broken hair between his girlfriend's ears.
"Girls like desserts, I'll give you these too," Lin Zitan pushed the ones he had just chosen to Chen Lin's girlfriend.
"Oh, how embarrassing this is, hehe~" Chen Lin's girlfriend said politely as she reached out and put together the macarons and snacks that Lin Zi had given him.
At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed in Lin Zitan's mind like lightning, and Chen Lin's girlfriend looked a little similar to Xiaomei in the office when she laughed.
Before leaving, Chen Lin stood up and said that he wanted to go to the bathroom, and Zhang Jing also said that he wanted to go, and the two of them went out under the guidance of the waiter. Lin Zi endured and endured, and finally couldn't help but ask.
"Shirley, what's your Chinese name?" After asking, Lin Ziyan still felt a little self-blamed, thinking that maybe he was too sensitive.
"My Chinese name, Luo Jiahui, Chen Lin didn't tell you?" the girl said strangely.
"Oh, I said it like, I'm sorry to forget. Lin Zitan smiled unnaturally.
"Hehe, it's okay, I know your names, your name is Lin Zitan, and the one who doesn't like to talk just now is called Zhang Jing, I'm right!" said Shirley with a confident smile.
"Yes, that's right. Lin Zitan smiled awkwardly, thinking that Zhang Jing had become a non-talkative person today?
