CH.246 Dining
At first, Romon thought that he would be able to book a seat the next day, but the next day, Jieli told him that it would be three days later at the earliest, and that there would only be one dish.
This made Luo Meng suddenly interested, why is Zheng Ke's business so good?
Three days later, in the evening, Romon and Jieli came to the "Land of Tranquility" together.
Business in this small restaurant is quite hot right now, but most people are eating dinner with their heads down.
As soon as Romon and Jieli entered, a waiter came over and ushered them to an empty table.
"What would you like to eat, sir?" asked the waiter.
"We booked Chef Zheng's dish. Jieli said softly.
"Oh. Then I'll go and inform him immediately. The waiter bowed slightly, and was about to turn around, but was stopped by Romon again.
"Excuse me, can you let Chef Zheng come over? ”
The waiter was stunned for a moment, glanced at Luo Meng again, and then immediately nodded, "I'll go tell him, please wait." ”
Not long after the waiter, Zheng Ke walked into the restaurant, and when he saw Luo Meng, he was slightly stunned, "Mr. Luo Meng, why are you here?"
"Of course it's a meal. Romon said with a smile.
"Eat?" Zheng Ke was stunned for a moment, turned his head to see Jieli on the side, and immediately realized, "It turns out that you are together." ”
"This is my wife. Romon introduced.
"Oh, ma'am. Zheng Ke still had his hands on the water, so he could only say hello simply.
Jieli also smiled, bowing slightly.
"You know that there are so many people who only cook 10 dishes a day, is it on purpose?" laughed Romon .
"Of course not, the quality of the dishes is also high and low. I can make the kind of dish next to me at will, can you eat it?"
Zheng Ke secretly pointed to the dishes on the table next to him, Luo Meng looked over and found that it was pasta, so he shook his head again and again.
You can't eat pasta at that restaurant, so you have to come here?
"That's it. I don't make ordinary dishes, so it's very difficult to cook this kind of dish. Besides, you've never seen a chef who has cooked 10 dishes in a row of dishes of the same quality as the competition dishes, right?" Zheng Ke then asked.
"Yes. Luo Meng nodded slightly, although he had never served as a judge, he also knew that the contestants would spend a lot of energy on it in order to cook a suitable dish, and from this point of view, it was indeed not too easy for Zheng Ke to cook 10 dishes.
"I hope that the French food you cook can be as good as your Chinese cuisine. Romon said.
"I also want to let Parisian diners or food lovers taste my French food. By the way, why don't you try the other dishes first? Absolon is also very good at cooking. Zheng Ke reminded.
He only cooks one dish, which is certainly not enough for two people who haven't eaten dinner yet.
Luo Meng knew Zheng Ke's thoughts, and immediately replied, "It's good to eat other dishes first." Why don't you order two nice salads first?"
Zheng Ke nodded slightly, turned around and entered the kitchen, saw Absolon who had just taken a breath, and said, "Mr. Romon wants two Nice salads, behave well." ”
"Hey, don't I know how to cook Nice salad yet?" Absolon glanced at Zheng Ke angrily, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and immediately picked up the ingredients and began to cook the salad.
Zheng Ke opened the refrigerator door, glanced at the ingredients in the refrigerator, and finally picked out a piece of lamb chops.
The last dish of the day is you.
Zheng Ke put the lamb chops on the cutting board, then found the other ingredients one by one and began to cook.
Romon sat on the bench and looked around, secretly amazed in his heart.
He and Eddie had also eaten here a few months earlier. However, at that time, the "quiet town" only had more customers at a few specific times, far from being compared with now, and the menu had a lot more dishes than before.
"The man whose name is Absolon...... Have you eaten any of his dishes?" asked Jieli curiously.
"No, but he's a student of Lanji. "And, his name is Absolon Durran, you must have heard of that surname, right?"
"Duran...... It's Chef Milne's ......" Gilly looked at Romon incredulously.
"That's right, it's Chef Milne's son, and Catherine's brother. This year, I was supposed to be in the third grade, just like Catherine, but I chose to drop out of school and opened this restaurant. Romon sighed.
"Also, after all, Lanji's third-grade promotion rate is really terrifying. Jieli sighed.
"There's no way around it, Lanji only needs the strongest students. Romon said helplessly.
Jieli was dumbfounded.
However, after only a few months, I got the small restaurant to this point, which is really worthy of being a student of Lanji. Romon looked around and said sincerely.
The sign of Lanji is very hard, but this is Paris, there are countless high-end restaurants, even those who have studied at Lanji want to make a name for themselves in Paris, it is very difficult, so most of these people will choose to work as a chef or deputy in a high-end restaurant, and wait until they have enough experience to open a store on their own.
Therefore, it is not easy for Absolon to do this in a short period of time.
While the two were chatting, Absolon walked to the table with two servings of Nice salad.
"Monsieur and Madame Romont, your dish is ready, please take your time. Absolon placed the salad in front of the two men.
Nice salad is one of the more common salads in France, as it is mainly made of potatoes and eggs, and the portions are relatively large, so it can be used as a main meal.
Zheng Ke also made this dish, but he chose tuna as one of the main ingredients, and the cooking method is more complicated, while Absolon's Nice salad is slightly simpler, mainly because he removed the tuna.
Romon took a bite of the potato, and the delicate texture made it exciting.
Absolon's cooking skills are much better than expected, and his control of the heat and understanding of the combination of seasonings are of a very high standard. The average Lanji student will never be able to cook a nice salad with this taste.
With this kind of culinary skills, it's no wonder that Absolon has been able to bring so many guests to the "Land of Tranquility" in a short period of time.
"It was very tasty and gave me a new understanding of you. Absolon continued to eat a cherry tomato in his mouth, the sweet and sour taste stimulating his taste buds and whetting his appetite.
"Thank you, teacher, in fact, my cooking skills are not bad. Absolon rubbed his nose with a hint of smugness on his face.
"Otherwise, if you sign up for the Everton Gourmet Training Centre, I'll take your cooking skills up a notch. Romon looked at Absolon with interest, but in exchange for the roll of his eyeballs.
"Teacher Romong, don't forget to pay the bill later. Absolon's face stiffened, and after saying this, he turned and returned to the kitchen.
