Chapter Fifty-Eight: Earl's Steak and Van Cleve's Invitation
"Hearthstone Inn?"
Gerald and Gordon looked at each other, not expecting that Earl Anduin would be their companion, and at this time, looking at Van Cleef's expression, how could the two not understand the true meaning behind the smile, and their faces suddenly became particularly ugly.
Name your competitor's name for your signature meal?
What's this called?
"Huh! Looking at Gerard's boss's face, he doesn't seem to be very willing! Van Cleef pretended to exaggerate, "If you feel embarrassed, then you haven't said it, we haven't heard of it!" ”
The old gentleman and the others were naturally closer to Van Cleef, and sensing his intention to tease, looked at Gerald with a smile and a word, eager to see if the hotel owner would swallow the bitter fruit.
At this time, Gerald really wanted to slap himself, why did he propose to Gordon to name the pan-fried steak? He originally wanted to create a phenomenon of the silver hotel having the courage to take responsibility and be good at improving for the distinguished guests here, so as to improve customer evaluation, but the result was good, and he shot himself in the foot.
Facing the smiling eyes of the old gentleman and others, Gerald thought about it again and again, but he still had to choose to accept his fate, everyone here is the head of the Silver Fortress, even if his own family background is also extraordinary, he must also take care of one or two, and reluctantly smiled: "No, no, no, the silver hotel's consistent purpose is to put the customer first, since we have announced the decision, we will definitely fulfill our promise, from now on, this pan-fried steak will be named Anduin steak, what do you think?" ”
"Hahahaha!"
Van Cleef and the others did not comment, but suddenly burst out laughing, which made Gerard and Gordon feel very embarrassed, the old lord laughed out of tears, shook his head and said: "Gerald, you have done a good job, you have your father's style, but changing your name to Anduin Steak is a bit awkward, so let's simply call it Earl Steak." ”
Earl Grey steak?
Gerald and Gordon looked at each other and nodded their heads repeatedly, as long as they didn't call Anduin anything! It's a pity that the two didn't know that the name change to Earl Steak did not reduce the publicity effect, anyway, most customers after this will be curious about the origin of the name, and the insider will gradually spread the truth, and more and more people will know that it is the Earl of Anduin of the Hearthstone Hotel who pointed out the shortcomings of the fried steak in order to have today's good flavor.
Of course, that's another story.
Van Cleef did not object to the old man, after all, he had to be forgiving and forgiving, not to mention that there was no difference in the essence between the two names, but Gerald thought that he had erased the problem in the cradle, and immediately introduced the dessert of the night, honey cake.
"This honey cake is baked by Chef Gordon, and in order to make the cake even more delicious, we have specially invited a dwarf engineer to design an improved oven to make the cake baked even better, and not only that, but the cake is also embedded with a variety of fruits, which makes the taste rich and varied, and with the best honey, it is sure to please you."
Gerard said with confidence, dessert as the end, even more effort and energy than the main course, otherwise it will affect the customer's mood, resulting in a lower number of good reviews brought by the previous dishes, at this time, he and the chef Gordon, especially concerned about Van Cleef's opinion, in case they are compared to the Hearthstone Inn that came out of nowhere, the two of them will be completely embarrassed!
At the same time, the old lord and the others also wanted to hear what Van Cleef had to say, but the building director only nodded and smiled after tasting it: "It tastes good." ”
Call......
Gerard and Gordon breathed a sigh of relief, and the old lord did not wait any longer, but immediately tasted it, and immediately showed satisfaction, this honey cake was sweet and delicious, and it was extremely soft, whether it was fine honey or high-quality fruit, it brought pleasure to everyone, and it did not take long to eat it all.
This also made Gerald completely relieved, and secretly said in his heart: "It seems that Count Anduin is just like this, the dishes of that Hearthstone Inn are not all better than our Silver Hotel, not to mention that he has the ability to cause problems, but he may not be able to reach the realm he said!" It seems that changing the name to Earl Steak is not a big deal, how can a small inn with a small name affect my steps? ”
Gerald thought in his heart that his face became more and more natural, and he wanted to save the person who was here, but the old lord saw Van Cleve's eyes, and immediately refused to leave.
It was only when the group left the hotel gate under Gerald's personal escort that the old gentleman asked Van Cleve, "What made you leave in a hurry?" Could it be because there's something wrong with that honey cake? A few of us ate pretty well! ”
The building leader, who left the strong light, did not rush to answer, but inhaled deeply with a relaxed face, and then buttoned his clothes and said: "There is nothing wrong with the honey cake, it is much better than what we used to eat, but it is far worse than that of the Hearthstone Hotel!" ”
"It's Hearthstone Inn again! Could it be that you've had a better honey cake there? ”
Van Cleef shook his head slightly: "Hearthstone Inn is different from the Silver Hotel, the dining environment is very relaxed, there is no strict order of serving, most of the meals are all kinds of new main dishes, similar to dessert after a meal, I have only eaten a fruit platter once, although it does not sound unusual, but it is especially suitable for the eating environment at that time, which makes me eat very happily." ”
"What's so good about the fruit platter?" The old lord wondered, "You said it was far away if you hadn't eaten it?" ”
"It's a confidence! Faith that you cannot comprehend! ”
Van Cleef said with heartfelt emotion: "At the Hearthstone Hotel, I can enjoy endless novelties every day, the Earl of Anduin can make ordinary bread very delicious, and often make what he calls home-cooked food, in fact, it is definitely more delicious than pan-fried steak, as for hot pot and xiao long bao, I won't talk about it, I can't understand the taste, you can only really appreciate it if you have eaten it yourself." ”
Van Cleef continued to take care of himself: "You think I'm not in good health, in fact, I'm not used to strong light, the electric light bulb used in the Hearthstone Inn, the light is soft and not dazzling, when you are tired, you can even lie on the sofa, face the light and fall asleep, no matter how lively the surroundings are, it will not affect your feelings, in a word, the Hearthstone Hotel is like my second home, and the Silver Hotel is just a church in the skin......"
As a papal knight, the old lord was not angry with Van Cleaf's emotion, and laughed softly: "Heh, I'm a little interested in what you said." ”
Van Cleef took the opportunity to send out an invitation: "Old man, you can go with me tomorrow, I promise that this trip is worthwhile!" ”
Before the old lord could answer, the others began to criticize.
"Van Cliffe, don't talk about that Hearthstone inn in a big way, the old lord is too old to run around!"
"Yes, Van Cleef, although Stormwind Town is not far away, even if you and the old lord go together, you have to run from morning to night, if you just accept Count Anduin's love to promote him, it is better not to let the old lord run around himself."
Van Cleef was helpless in the face of the admonitions of many friends, he knew that no matter how he explained, these people would not believe his words, and even the old lord was no longer curious about the Hearthstone Inn and was ready to listen to everyone's opinions.
Seeing this, Van Cleef was a little anxious, the old man's identity is special, if he personally promotes the Hearthstone Hotel, then the effect will inevitably be extremely sensational, when the building president is embarrassed, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he opened his mouth and said: "Old sir, even if you think I am exaggerating, but Count Storm's wine collection will not be exaggerated, right?" I remember you saying that Count Berval had robbed you of all the good wines you had set your eye on, and now you can taste them at the Hearthstone Inn! ”
"Is this true?"
"Of course, the drinks provided by the Hearthstone Inn are from the Earl's Wine Storehouse, and if the old lord comes to the door in person, he will definitely bring out the treasured wine!"
Hearing this, the old man's eyes lit up, and he retreated into the background, completely shifting his attention to eating and drinking, so when he heard Van Cleve's proposal, he immediately jumped to try: "Okay! These good wines alone are worth a visit for me! ”
The others saw Van Cleeff take out a killing move, and opened their mouths, so they had to rely on the old man's temperament, but they complained about Van Cleeff in their hearts, and they had to pull the old man to run around.
Van Cleef smiled slightly, as long as he could invite this to Stormwind Town, then everything would be settled, and he immediately sent invitations to several other people, after all, one more person has more strength, but these few people's interest is not very high, with suspicion in their eyes, they all choose to shirk it with the excuse of something important.
Van Cleef didn't force it, but made an appointment with the old lord, and then returned to the association for final preparations, he heard that Jones had brought twenty meal tickets, so he asked Earl Anduin to make a big dish, so he invited such a heavyweight to go, and he couldn't eat worse than Jones!
