Chapter 216: Fogg
"Order the Bottle Bar." Huang Long sat down and said with a smile.
"Li Mu, you can order it, what do you want to drink?" Tang Xinzhi didn't really accommodate Li Mu so much, but in comparison, she was even more reluctant to pay attention to Huang Long.
"Just have a bottle." Li Mu didn't mean to really get to the point.
"Red wine can't be casual, let's have a bottle of Lafite." Huang Long said.
"Yes, I can drink anything." Li Mu saw that Tang Xin wanted to pull him as a shield, but he didn't have this obligation, and he didn't want to be involved in the affairs of the two people.
Huang Long called the waiter over and ordered a bottle of red wine in fluent English, compared with Li Mu's tattered English, Huang Long's English seems very authentic, I don't know, I thought he was born and raised in the United States.
Lafite Li Mu will naturally drink it, this wine is too famous, and it is too bad on the street.
Lafite's annual output is about 200,000 bottles, and China's quota is about 50,000 bottles, but there is no way to count the amount of Lafite consumed in China every year.
Many of Lafite's subsidiary brands, as long as they are branded with Lafite's name, will also rise in price in China, although now Lafite has also launched a low-cost series, but now people who really drink red wine are very cautious about the selection of Lafite, and will not order a Lafite to drink casually.
"I'm sorry, sir, but we don't have the Lafite you ordered in stock, do you need another wine?" The waiter walked over and said apologetically.
"Do you have any recommendations?" Huang Long is actually not very good at wine, otherwise he would not have ordered a bottle of Lafite casually.
"There were Dassault in '82 and '86. It's not bad to drink now, and you can try it if the guests need it. The wine of this Zhuangzi is not bad, and the vintage is also very good. The waiter said.
"Is there a better brand?" Huang Long frowned when he heard this, although he didn't know much about wine, but he still knew the big brand of red wine, what Dassault was, he had never heard of it, and it was not a good wine.
"Is it really Dassault in '82 and '86?" Li Mu didn't want to say anything. But when he heard that there was really good wine, he couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, if a guest drinks fake wine here. You can get up to 100 times the compensation, and the hotel has clear rules and conditions. The waiter said with a smile.
"It's not an affiliate brand of Dassault, is it?" Li Mu asked again.
"It's the main brand." Said in a friendly way of service.
"Then let's try the bottle of eighty-six years." Li Mu couldn't help but order a bottle, it was naturally a good thing to have the taste ability of a pseudo-jewel lemon, but at the same time, it also made Li Mu's mouth very tricky. I used to be able to stuff anything in my mouth. Even though I can still eat it, I always feel that it is not a taste, and I can't help but want to try it when I come across something really good.
8286 is a good vintage for European wines, and many wineries have produced better red wines in both vintages than others, and it is not just Lafite in '82 that is good enough.
Dassault is also a famous wine, and has a strict process for making red wines, and the wines produced are no worse than Lafite's. Dassault in '86 was also excellent.
The waiter saw that Li Mu had ordered Dassault for eight or six years, so he glanced at Li Mu a little seriously. It is not strange to know Dassault, and it can also be said to be an introductory lesson for really drinking red wine, but being able to choose between eighty-two and eighty-six shows that Li Mu really has some skills.
Because '82 is so famous, many people will be confused by the number '82 when they order red wine, but the waiter knows that Dassault, who is now drinking '86, is better than '82.
Naturally, this waiter is not an ordinary waiter, but the head chef of the restaurant, Fogo, who has many chefs in the restaurant, and now unless someone appoints it, Fogo rarely does it himself, only responsible for researching new dishes and ensuring the quality of the back kitchen.
Yesterday a few waiters were drunk and haven't come to work yet, and Fergo himself is a very easy-going person, so he made a cameo appearance as a waiter.
In a few moments, Fergo brought the wine and a salad.
"We didn't order a salad?" Tang Xin glanced at Fergo strangely.
"This is to apologize just now, a little care from our restaurant." Fergo said with a smile.
"Thank you." Tang Xin said.
"It's really stingy, at least a bottle of wine should be sent when you send something, what is it to send a salad, and it's such a small portion." Huang Long muttered in Chinese.
Li Mu stopped Fergo with some surprise: "Please wait a minute, is this really for us?" ”
"Yes, sir." Fogo, who had already turned around and was about to leave, turned back and said.
"You're so kind, it's a little too expensive." Li Mu smiled bitterly, this salad doesn't seem to have a lot of weight, but it's a little scary, I'm afraid the price is not much worse than the meal they ordered, and it may even be a little too much.
"Sir, do you know this?" Fergo's eyes lit up, the restaurant has strict rules, and things that are not in stock are not allowed on the menu.
Fogo mainly wanted to express his apology, but because he saw that Li Mu might be a person who really knew how to eat and drink, he specially prepared one for Li Mu himself, so as not to be considered insincere.
"I don't know much, but the truffle, foie gras, and caviar, which are known as the world's top three delicious truffles, foie gras, and caviar, there are two of them at once, and they are still the top things, and I can smell them even if I don't understand them." Li Mu's English was really poor, and his sentences were a little incoherent, and he said it several times before Fergo understood what he was saying.
"Sir is a real foodie, and before he tasted it, he could smell these high-quality truffles and foie gras." Fogo's eyes suddenly lit up, "Sir, can you taste it, can you eat it, where is this foie gras from?" ”
"Then you really have to taste it to know, so I'm welcome." Li Mu tasted a little salad with foie gras, and couldn't help but praise: "It's really good, if my mouth is not wrong, this should be foie gras with black winter truffle and meat gie." ”
"Sir is really amazing, please continue to enjoy, I will not disturb your meal." Fergo was a little excited in his heart, the rarest thing about being a chef is to meet someone who knows how to eat, but out of the etiquette of the restaurant, Fergo couldn't disturb Li Mu to eat, so he had to retreat first.
Huang Long didn't speak with a dark face, Li Mu was so proficient in eating, and he didn't want to be bored anymore.
"I didn't think you really knew that." Tang Xin looked at Li Mu with some surprise, she had naturally eaten high-end red wine, foie gras and truffles, but she couldn't tell whether it was good or not.
With a U like Tang Xin with a keen sense of perception, it is difficult to subdivide these things, Li Mu was able to taste where the foie gras was produced, and even she felt that this taste was a little too powerful.
"I don't have any other hobbies, I just like to eat and drink." Li Mu said with a smile.
"You are a bodyguard who doesn't exercise well, and you eat and drink well every day, no wonder your skills are so bad." Tang Xin always felt that Li Mu's skills were very poor, and he couldn't be regarded as a bodyguard at all.
"Ahem, I'm really good. But I'm the boss now, I can't do everything myself, I usually leave it to the people below to do, if it weren't for Miss Tang's face, I wouldn't have paid attention to them at all. Li Mu said with some embarrassment, he really didn't play any role as a bodyguard along the way, and he had been reduced to running errands.
When it was time to settle the bill, another waiter told them that someone had already settled the bill for them.
"Who settled the bill for us?" Tang Xin wanted to make it clear that she was not a casual person who accepted other people's treats, and in her opinion, this must be another boring man who wanted to soak her in foreplay, this kind of thing she had encountered too many times.
"It's our head chef, Mr. Fogo." The waiter replied.
"May we meet this Mr. Fergo? Otherwise, we cannot accept this kindness. Tang Xin said.
"Please wait." Shortly after the waiter left, Fergo came again.
"Sir, miss, is there anything you don't like?" Fergo asked, confused.
"You're Mr. Fergo?" Li Mu reacted.
"Yes, I'm Fergo." Fergo probably understood what was going on, and said with a smile: "You can appreciate Dassault and my salad, I want to invite you to this meal, please be sure not to refuse the sincerity." ”
"Your surname is Fogo, is it from the Fogo family, the founder of Dassault?" When Li Mu heard Fergo specifically mention Dassault, he remembered that the founder of Dassault was the Fergo family, but it was later acquired by another family.
"I didn't expect Mr. to even know this, although Dassault no longer belongs to Fogo, everyone in the Fogo family is proud of their family for creating it." Fergo said with a smile.
In the end, Li Mu still accepted Fergo's kindness, since Ferge didn't invite Tang Xin, Tang Xin naturally had no opinion.
"I can't imagine that being lazy and doing it has this kind of benefit." On the way back to the room, Tang Xin couldn't help but look at Li Mu and said.
"Can you get rid of the word lazy?" Li Mu said helplessly.
"I'm telling the truth." After a pause, Tang Xin continued: "But I said that I was in for a treat, but it turned out to be stained with your light, which is a bit bad, so let's do it, you can choose one of the things I bought as a gift." ”
"Really?" Li Mu's eyes lit up, Tang Xin bought two watches that were not too expensive but not cheap today, and if he could get the watches, they would be worth more than 100,000 yuan.
"I forgot that you are a greedy ghost, so naturally I can't let you choose for yourself, I'll grab one for you." Tang Xin reacted, and didn't wait for Li Mu to answer, after returning to the room, he directly grabbed a box from a pile of bags and boxes and threw it to Li Mu, even she didn't know what it contained.
