Three Michelin stars is extraordinary. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In addition to bread for appetizers, there are also hors d'oeuvres, which are different from the cucumbers and pickles in ordinary restaurants, and the appetizers in this restaurant are black caviar with crab meat.

The beautiful and dignified waitress brought it and introduced it, saying that it was a small gift from the restaurant and invited the guests to taste it.

This restaurant specializes in French cuisine, and caviar has always been the pride of French recipes.

The plate is served with a thick layer of caviar, which shimmers in the soft light, which is the hallmark of fine caviar.

However, not all of the plates are caviar, otherwise the price would be too high, and the restaurant would not even be profitable.

There is only one layer of caviar on top, and fresh crab meat below, all of which are carved, a bit like the carved paper-cutting of Li Du's hometown, layer after layer.

Rogge invited Li Du to start eating: "Please taste, Li, the black caviar here is a specialty, it is not sold to the public, only if you come here to eat, you will give one as a gift." ”

Li Du took a piece of croissant, smeared caviar on it and paired it with a slice of crab meat, so that the aroma of freshly baked bread and the freshness of crab meat blended together, and the taste was very delicious.

As for the caviar, Li Du could feel the roe explode in his mouth when he ate it, but he couldn't eat anything delicious.

Soon, the appetizer was served, and Li Du ordered the truffle seafood salad, which was very exquisite, not served on a plate, but with a large shell.

It is said to be a salad, but instead of a salad dressing, it uses a crystal clear seafood jelly and cheese sauce, sprinkled with a layer of black truffle powder, which is used to serve with champagne.

Eating this delicious salad, Li Du had to admit that the three-Michelin-starred restaurant was really worth the money.

Eating in such a place is to enjoy the delicious food and enjoy life, in contrast, eating in an ordinary restaurant is just to eat and live.

Next up was the mint and peppery English bean soup, and two waiters were in charge of the bowl

One waiter serves the plates, and the other uses a small pot to pour the thick bean soup into the foam with the fragrance of fresh onions.

Each dish has its own characteristics, which Li Du has never touched before, and when it comes to serving the main course, the king crab with fresh milk sauce he ordered is even pasted with a thin layer of gold leaf......

During the meal, Rogge dominated the conversation, they didn't talk about jewelry, they talked about business, they were talking about food.

Cole's business skills are average, but he is highly skilled in food, and he has been traveling around the world since he was in middle school, except for his studies.

Naturally, he is not only admiring the scenery and looking for beautiful women, but also enjoying the food.

Rogge is a person with a delicate life and is very particular about eating, while Li Du loves life and is good at cooking, so the three of them have a lot of topics to talk about food.

During the dinner, they kept chatting about the food, the taste and texture of the selected dishes, and the waiter next to them heard it, and they frequently paid attention to it during the ceremony.

After eating, the manager of the restaurant came over and gave them some desserts after the meal, and asked them enthusiastically how they felt and if they had any suggestions.

Li Du felt very good, so he said that he had no suggestions, and he was very grateful for their hospitality.

As a result, when they checked out and left, the restaurant manager gave them another pastry for supper......

Walking out of the restaurant, Li Du said with satisfaction: "The service of the three-star Michelin restaurant is really outstanding, and it is definitely worth the money." ”

Cole laughed, "No, Lee, I think they misunderstood us and thought we were Michelin's food inspectors, so they came to curry favor with us." ”

Michelin's work of grading restaurants is done by a select group of gastronomic agents known as "gastronomic inspectors".

Every time the inspector goes to a restaurant or hotel to judge, he needs to sneak into the accommodation and taste it without concealing his identity, and they will often talk about the food at the table and make professional reviews.

Perhaps, the waiter and manager of the restaurant did misunderstand today......

But in any case, Li Du is very satisfied with today's dinner.

Rogge arranged a hotel for him, didn't say anything all night, and the next day after lunch, all the gemstone identification results came out.

The total value of 600 fire opals is 72 million US dollars, which translates to an average value of more than 100,000 US dollars per gemstone.

The main reason why the value of opals is so large this time is that there are some fine gemstones with excellent texture, which drive up the price.

The batch of opals that Li Du got from Suergi and Hughes and others was worth about eight million dollars.

After harvesting more than 70 million US dollars in more than 20 days, Li Du feels that he has the opportunity to become the richest man in the world, which means that he works hard and can earn 1 billion a year!

Thinking in his heart, Cole's words shattered his sweet dream: "Lee, I don't know how you got so many gems, first of all I must congratulate you, and secondly, I want to ask, will there be these gems available in the future?"

Li Duhao said angrily: "Of course, as long as the group needs it, I can continue to supply." ”

Cole shook his head: "I'm sorry, after the group completes this acquisition, it will no longer be able to eat fire opals." In addition, if you continue to launch fire opals in the future, then we cannot give the current price. ”

Li Du was surprised and asked, "Why?"

"Because the market is saturated, fire opal is not a precious gemstone that is popular in the world, it only has a market in Europe and the United States. If we continue to push gems out, it will cause it to be less valuable. Cole said.

Li Du understands that scarcity is expensive, and the reason why fire opal can be sold at a high price repeatedly is because of its scarcity, and when it is no longer so rare, it will naturally not be able to continue to sell at a high price.

But what he doesn't understand is: "Compared to the entire European and American markets, these opals are not in large quantities, right?

"It's divided into 365 days a year, which is very little, but in terms of a one-time launch, this is enough, and it will have a certain impact on the market. Cole explained.

Li Du nodded slowly, indicating that he understood.

He understood Cole's subtext, in fact, Hairui Group can't eat anymore, and other luxury companies still have the ability to acquire.

Cole didn't continue the topic, he asked again, "Lee, as far as I know, you're buying a stake in the group right now, right?"

Li Du nodded: "Yes, I am very confident in the development of the group." ”

Hearing him say this, Cole laughed and said, "I'm glad to get your appreciation, I want to know, what is the use of the money you used to sell the gems this time, is it all used to buy the shares of the group?"

"Yes. There is nothing to hide, Li Du gave an honest answer.

Cole smiled even more happily: "So, are you interested in buying my shares?"
