Chapter 497: Praise
The guests who attended the Nobel Dinner, everyone came here for the qualifications and honor of this banquet, and to be able to participate in this dinner was a kind of recognition of status and qualifications, and no one really just wanted to eat a meal.
But Guo Dalu is different, he came to this dinner this time, mainly for fun, and he really regarded this banquet as a luxurious banquet that can be eaten.
He has been busy for a long time, not a drop of water has entered, for him, he has to eat when he is hungry, and he has to eat to be full, this is a matter of course, and now the front meal in front of him and the staple food have been poured into his mouth, but he is not even full, and he is suddenly disappointed, and he immediately looks for a waiter to add food.
The waiter in front of Guo Dalu was not good after hearing Guo Dalu's request.
The waiter never imagined that one day someone would make such a strange request.
In fact, logically speaking, it is natural to ask for additional meals if you are not full of food, but at such an important banquet, everyone eats just to mean it, and it is enough to taste it, and no one will really eat it for the sake of being full.
The reason why the meal is so exquisite is actually for the sake of the image of many guests, if it is really like an ordinary dinner party, lift the cheeks, lift the back molars, and eat Hessey, the image is too unsightly, and it is very unsuitable to appear in front of the camera.
A little more exquisite, a little less, this is the food characteristic of a high-end banquet.
Moreover, the dishes at this banquet are generally a kind of food with a restrained smell, and do not exude too much food flavor to the outside. Otherwise, what kind of taste would it be if the smell of food from a banquet of one or two thousand people and hundreds of tables of food gathered together in the whole hall? I am afraid that after everyone has finished eating, their whole body will be soaked with the aroma of food.
Ordinary Nobel dinner, under normal circumstances, will end in about ten minutes, after eating, soon there are waiters to clean up the tableware, the whole process is carried out quickly, there is no request to the waiter to add food, even if you can't eat, can't you go back to the hotel to eat again?
But Guo Dalu doesn't think so.
His idea is that I am here to be a guest, and you, the host, have to let me eat and drink well, and if I don't eat well or drink well, that is, the hospitality is not good, and in the countryside and countryside, this is poked in the backbone.
But the waiter didn't think so, he glanced at Guo Dalu in surprise, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
The number of meals for the number of people on the scene, which is all booked in advance, one dish per person, no one is much, no one is too much, this is the characteristic of the Western meal system.
Now Guo Dalu asked for additional meals, although it was weird, but there was no rule of not adding meals at the dinner, this waiter did not dare to make his own decisions, and bent down to Guo Dalu and said: "Dear Mr. Guo, I'll ask to help you ask, see if I can bring you another one." ”
Guo Dalu said impatiently: "How can you eat enough if you have one? Come on five! By the way, bring me another bowl of borscht and two pieces of toasted bread." ”
The waiter's body shook and almost fell, "Wait a minute, I'll help you consult!"
When Guo Dalu asked the waiter for additional food, whether it was Lei Mengmeng or Song Qian, they were extremely embarrassed, Song Qian covered her face and said: "Brother Dalu, you don't pay attention to your image too much, in such a solemn banquet, you even ask for additional food? You see, others look at us a little differently!"
"What do you care about other people?"
Guo Dalu glanced at Song Qian, "There are so many things to eat, so why eat it? It's better to eat bun fritters at home!"
Lei Yu laughed and said, "Dalu, you are a celebrity now." ”
Guo Dalu said: "Celebrities are also people, and they also have to eat!"
At this time, the sound of the accordion at the banquet was flowing slowly, and the people who were eating were communicating softly, and the fragrance of the decorative petals in the whole banquet completely suppressed the taste of the food, and there was not the slightest filth in the hall, which was very rare.
A group of people are eating slowly with knives and forks, the elegance of men and gentlemen, and the elegance of women, looking like acting in a movie, with a little reserve and caution, it hurts to watch.
After a while, the previous waiter walked up to Guo Dalu with a tray, "Mr. Guo, this is the Kobe steak that our chef Henry personally made for you, as well as twelve French snails, and a super sandwich specially made for you, please enjoy it slowly." ”
He said to Guo Dalu: "The borscht you want is being made now, please wait a while." ”
Guo Dalu looked at the sandwich on the plate in front of him, which was almost a foot high, and found that the things in each layer of this sandwich were different, some were beef, some were pork chops, and some were salmon, and he was immediately very satisfied, "Yes, yes, this is the way of hospitality, tell your head chef, when I travel to Huaxia another day, I will personally cook and invite him to eat." ”
At this time, Song Qian, Lei Mengmeng and the others had already eaten all the food in front of them, and they didn't eat much, and they couldn't help but be thrilled when they saw a lot of food in front of Guo Dalu.
Song Qian was the most polite, and reached out to grab the sandwich, "Give me two pieces, I still have some caviar here, spread it on it, it tastes good." ”
Guo Dalu pulled her palm away, "Go aside, I may not be enough! You can take a few snails!"
He was really hungry, so he divided the sandwich into several portions on the plate, cut it with a knife and fork, and swallowed it in large gulps, watching the food in front of him disappear layer by layer, and the guests next to him were stunned.
The cameraman who was broadcasting live was attracted by Guo Dalu's eating, and couldn't help but focus the camera on Guo Dalu back and forth, especially Guo Dalu and Lei Yu were at the same table, even if it was to highlight the thunderstorm, Guo Dalu's shot at this table was indispensable.
At this time, not only was everyone stunned by Guo Dalu's meal, but even the audience watching the live broadcast was in an uproar.
In fact, Guo Dalu's etiquette for eating Western food is impeccable, more like Westerners than Westerners, elegant and decent, skillful use of knives and forks, but he is different from others in that he eats too much and eats too fast!
I had never heard of the knife and fork in his hand, whether it was a steak or a sandwich, it was quickly divided under the knife and fork in his hand, and then sent into his mouth.
Occasionally seeing a camera aimed at him, this guy doesn't forget to make a thumbs-up gesture at the camera.
A group of viewers watching the live broadcast almost fainted, ", Guo Ye is treating the dinner hall as his own home?"
After drinking the borscht served by the waiter, Guo Dalu was very satisfied, "Not bad, not bad, it is worthy of the craftsmanship of the top chef this time, it really tastes good!"
The waiter next to him grinned and bowed slightly, "Thank you for the compliment!"
After the dinner, the aftershow was a musical and dance drama, and when the dance drama was over, the party also came to an end.
When Guo Dalu left the table, he specially called out the head chef Henry, "Dude, the skills are really good! If you learn from me for another two years, you will definitely become a world-class chef!"
