Chapter 13: The Ancestors' Specialties
Until arriving at the hotel, Ling Lin was still a little dazed.
To be honest, he hasn't recovered yet, what kind of luck can he be able to strengthen an artifact equipment to thirty times with a casual pressure on his ass?
However, this weapon really made Lin Xi very happy, so happy that Lin Xi didn't even drive his own car, and went directly with Ling Lin.
Along the way, Lin Xi was holding his mobile phone and playing there, while Ling Lin closed his eyes in the car to recuperate.
After playing for a while, Lin Xi finally put down his phone.
"Brother Ling, what kind of food do you like to eat?"
Waving his hand casually, Ling Lin said, "Whatever, I'm not taboo." Chinese food, Western food, spicy and non-spicy, sour and non-sour, I can eat it. ”
"Looking at Brother Ling like this, he should like to eat meat very much." Lin Xi said with a grin.
Glancing at Lin Xi, Ling Lin was a little embarrassed, okay, I can't hide it, yes, it doesn't matter what kind of cuisine it is, but the important thing is to have meat to eat.
Half an hour later, the taxi stopped in front of a not-so-large restaurant.
Looking at this restaurant, Ling Lin was a little surprised, how should I say this? Originally, he thought that a rich second generation like Lin Xi would take him to a relatively high-end hotel after a meal.
However, to Ling Lin's surprise, Lin Xi actually brought him here.
"Brother Ling, don't look at this shop's small ......"
"But there's a lot of variety?" Ling Lin said with a smile.
Looking at Ling Lin, Lin Xi shook his head: "No, it's that the dishes in this shop are particularly expensive. ”
Ling Lin: "......."
I don't know why, but it seems to be flaunted to my wealth.
Soon, Lin Xi took Ling Lin's arm and walked to the restaurant.
"The chef of this restaurant is very skilled and particular about the ingredients, and it is even rumored that a high-ranking person in Kyoto invited him to a state banquet, but he politely declined. In addition, this chef has a bad temper, and there are several rules for eating here, one is that you can't play with your mobile phone during dinner, the other is that you are not allowed to take pictures during eating, and the last one is not allowed to have leftovers. ”
While speaking, Ling Lin and Lin Xi had already walked into the hotel.
As soon as he entered the hotel, Ling Lin couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
There is a big difference between the interior and exterior of this hotel.
The exterior of the hotel looks small and old, but the interior is not only noble, but also large. This hotel looks like it only has three floors on the outside, but after entering, Ling Lin found that there are actually three floors underground in this hotel.
"The name of this hotel is Dawn, and if you count the basement, there are six floors. But don't think that these six floors are arranged casually, you can sit wherever you want. In fact, the floor of this hotel is very particular, and it is a membership system and a reservation system. ”
"To become a member here, you first need to be introduced by three members here. The second is to eat, all guests below the sixth floor, if you want to come to eat, you must make a reservation in advance. Depending on the floor, the length of the reservation time varies.
The second is that there is no ordering here, and the dishes on each table are arranged by the chef himself. ”
After Lin Xi finished speaking, Ling Lin said with some curiosity: "Then we are ......"
"Needless to say, of course, it's the sixth-story SSSVIP." As he spoke, Lin Xi took out a membership card and shook it in front of Ling Lin.
Looking at the glittering card in Lin Xi's hand, and then at the exquisitely dressed guests in the hotel, Ling Lin was sure.
Today is the last time he will come to this hotel, and he will definitely not come in the future.
……
followed Lin Xi to the third floor, and as soon as Ling Lin sat down, a waiter came up with a dish.
Ling Lin was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that there was no food here, it was all arranged by the chef.
"Yo, Brother Ling, you are lucky today, this dish is called inlaid with silver sprouts, I heard that it is the Empress Dowager Cixi's favorite food." Saying that, Lin Xi took a pair of chopsticks and put them in Ling Lin's bowl.
Picking up the bean sprout from his bowl, Ling Lin's face was full of confusion.
Well, there are some things that have to be admitted, just this sprout, which is neatly cut, almost the same length, and full of color.
And there is some flesh color in the center of the sprouts, and if you look closely, you will see that someone has stuffed the meat into the center of the sprouts.
"Yes, it's delicious." Just when Ling Lin was stunned, Lin Xi had already stuffed the bean sprouts into his mouth, and then an expression of enjoyment appeared on his face.
Looking at Lin Xi's satisfied look, Ling Lin subconsciously stuffed the bean sprouts into his mouth.
After chewing twice, Ling Lin's brows furrowed slightly.
Isn't this what ordinary stir-fried pork with bean sprouts tastes like?
"This thing, Cixi likes to eat? What's wrong? Isn't fried chicken thighs fragrant? Ling Lin complained inwardly.
Hearing Ling Lin's complaint, Ling Sanbai knocked Ling Lin's head hard, and then said with a displeased face: "What do you know about being a big boss, this is called exquisite!" ”
"Hehe, the so-called refinement is to waste time and do the simplest things with the most complex techniques." Ling Lin complained ruthlessly.
With such a dish, Ling Lin felt that he might not be able to be full even if he ate a hundred plates.
Just when Ling Lin wanted to tell Lin Xi if he wanted to change restaurants, and he couldn't eat enough, suddenly a middle-aged man appeared on the third floor, shouting in broken Chinese: "What about your chef?" Call him out. ”
The middle-aged man's shout caused everyone to look at him.
After the middle-aged man shouted twice, a man in a chef's uniform soon came out of the back kitchen.
The man is about fifty years old and of medium stature.
Seeing the man appear, the middle-aged man who spoke earlier said, "You are the chef here, Fang Donglong?" ”
Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, Fang Donglong frowned slightly, and then said suspiciously: "Who are you?" ”
"My name is Jiro Urata and I'm from an island country. I came here today because I heard that Your Excellency is good at all kinds of cuisine and is willing to take on all kinds of challenges. That's why I came here to learn from you. ”
After Putian Jiro finished speaking, Fang Donglong frowned slightly. Just as he wanted to speak, Putian Jiro suddenly sneered and said, "Mr. Fang, you won't dare, right?" ”
"This ......" Fang Donglong's expression obviously hesitated.
That's right, as the head chef of this Daybreak restaurant, he is indeed good at all kinds of cuisine, but although he also dabbles in Japanese cuisine, he is not particularly good at it.
Before, he said that he accepted various challenges, and he also said it for the eight major cuisines in China, but he didn't expect that an island chef would challenge him today.
Seeing that Fang Donglong didn't answer, Putian Jiro's expression gradually became arrogant.
"Mr. Fang, if you think you can't win, you can take the initiative to admit defeat, and I don't need you to compensate anything, you just need to see others in the future and say that you once lost to me Putian Jiro."
After saying that, Urada Jiro laughed, and his expression was very bad.
Fang Donglong was still hesitating, he didn't know Jiro Putian, but it was obvious that the other party must have two brushes when he came to challenge, and he would be criticized for whether he accepted it or not.
Seeing Fang Donglong's embarrassed expression, an angry expression appeared on Lin Xi's delicate face.
"Hmph, this island man is so despicable. He must have known that Chef Fang was not good at Japanese cuisine, so he came here to challenge, which was too despicable. ”
Just when Lin Xi was indignant, suddenly Ling Lin's ears sounded Ling Sanbai's voice.
"Xiao Linlin, you go and take on the challenge."
"Huh?" Ling Lin was stunned for a moment, he took a yarn, and he didn't know how to cook.
At this time, Ling Sanbai said again: "Don't panic, you have us to support you, you won't lose." Don't underestimate your ancestors, we old things have our own specialties! ”
