Chapter 342: A Luxurious Banquet

Only Jiao Bai, showing a complicated smile, for no other reason, he has too much of this thing. In the post-apocalyptic Houling Town, Jiao Bai found a table chiseled out of several glass jadeite. After bringing it back to Earth, Jiao Baituo found a few masters who made jade carving and asked them to process it into hundreds of bracelets, earrings, jade pendants, ornaments and the like. The bracelet that Yun Ru took out was just one of dozens of bracelets, and to Jiao Bai, it was nothing new, and it was not as precious as the ruby ring he gave to Zhou Ziyue.

After the engagement ceremony, Jiao Bai led all relatives and friends to the banquet hall. After everyone humbled to each other, they sat down one after another, and more than 20 relatives and friends sat at three tables. Once everyone was seated, a chef wearing a tall chef's hat walked in, followed by three assistant chefs carrying three plates of dishes. Three plates of dishes are placed on three tables in turn, and the Executive Chef of Four Seasons stands by to explain the names of the dishes, the ingredients and how to prepare them.

"The dishes we prepared today are all dishes from the Manchu and Han Dynasty banquets, and they are made in strict accordance with the recipes left over from the Qing Dynasty, with good color, flavor and flavor.

Please take a look at the first dish, this dish is called steamed bear's paw, also called the pearl of the palm, is one of the eight treasures of ancient legends, and it is a treasure dish that has been passed down for a long time in the palace. The bear's paw is a farmed adult black bear's paw, which is dried for a year and a half and thoroughly dehydrated before it can be used in the dish."

The chef was still trying to introduce him, but no one at the scene cared about what he said, because everyone was frightened by the bear paw that was served to the table. Black bears and brown bears are both endangered and protected animals, and steamed bear paws are a very rare dish. Even those farmed black bears are mostly used to extract bear bile, and they rarely kill bears. Although most of us have never eaten bear paws, we still have a point in our hearts about how big the bear paws of adult black bears are, at most more than ten centimeters long and more than ten centimeters wide. But what is the steamed bear paw on the table, the length is more than 30 centimeters, the width is also more than 20 centimeters, and the twelve-inch plate is worthy of a bear paw, which is too shocking, even the polar bear's bear paw is not so big

The other guests were just surprised, but they didn't say anything, and Jiao Xiaoya, who was the most out of the way, poked the bear's paw with chopsticks, and asked in surprise, "This is really a black bear's paw, not a real bear's paw that can grow so big with other materials."

Being interrupted from speaking, the executive chef in his 50s was a little unhappy, but thinking that today's guests were all invited by the chairman, it was not good to be too offended, so he had to smile reluctantly and said, "I guarantee with the credibility of a senior chef that this is indeed a real bear's paw, as for why it is so big, I don't know, the ingredients are from our uncle Mr. Jiao Bai of the fourth-level hotel." ”

Hearing this, everyone turned their heads and looked at Jiao Bai, their eyes full of curiosity. Jiao Bai was a little uncomfortable, pretended to cough, and said, "Everyone look at what I'm doing, such a good dish is there, hurry up and move the chopsticks." This bear's paw is indeed a black bear's, and I heard the keeper say that it is a descendant of a bear king, so it can grow so big. ”

"Oh, I see" Jiao Xiaoya exclaimed, then stretched out her chopsticks for the first time, took a piece of bear paw and put it in her mouth, her eyes immediately lit up, she chewed and swallowed quickly, and immediately started to clamp the second chopsticks. The others moved more slowly, and they also moved their hands, and for a moment the dinner table was full of the sound of chewing food, and then the taste of the bear's paw was admired.

The follow-up dishes were also served quickly, and the executive chef was still unhurried to introduce everyone

"The second course, Hericium erinaceus mushroom steak shark's fin, a selection of high-quality lion's mane mushrooms and shark's fin"

No matter what he said, few people listened carefully, and everyone was attracted by the food that was constantly served on the table. Next, exquisite dishes are served on the table, such as bird's nest, sea cucumber, shark fin, abalone, fish maw, dried scallops, fish lips, etc., all kinds of rare ingredients are available, and everyone is very happy to eat.

It was not until the seven seven and forty-nine dishes were served that the huge round table was full, and then all kinds of drinks were served.

"All 49 dishes have been served, there are three kinds of wine, the white wine is 20-year-old Moutai, the red wine is 1990, the auic wine produced by Château Latour in France, and the beer is private beer, which everyone uses lightly."

After the introduction, the service staff opened all the drinks and filled the wine glasses on the table, and the executive chef bowed to everyone before retreating with the service staff.

Jiao Bai pulled Zhou Ziyue to stand up and said, "Today is the day of my engagement to Ziyue, thank you for coming, I will toast you here first." ”

After that, Jiao Bai drank the slightly amber Moutai in the cup in one gulp, and Zhou Ziyue also picked up the goblet with red wine and took a sip gently.

"Good amount of wine, come on, let's toast together."

Next, everyone raised a glass and drank one together, and then relaxed, talking and laughing in groups, eating and drinking, quite lively. Jiao Bai, as the male protagonist tonight, had to toast from table to table, and then was greeted by Zhou Ziyue's cousins and sisters, plus a group of girlfriends, and soon drank high. At the critical moment, it was Zhou Ziyue who stood up and blocked a lot of wine for Jiao Bai, so that he could hold on to it until the end of the banquet.

After the end, seeing off a group of relatives and friends, Zhou Ziyue supported Jiao Bai and returned to the top villa of the hotel, Zhou Ziyue's room. Jiao Bai sat on the sofa, rubbed his temples with his fingers, and said, "Your little sisters are so crazy, I have such a good amount of alcohol, I can't drink them, but fortunately, you helped me block it in the end, otherwise I will be embarrassed today." ”

In fact, with Jiaobai's strong physical fitness, he has a strong tolerance to alcohol, and he will not drink to this extent. It's no wonder that Zhou Ziyue's girlfriend group is too strong, all the incarnated female men, and the white beer is served together, and after only two rounds of wine, Jiao Bai began to be unbearable.

Zhou Ziyue moistened a towel with hot water, wiped Jiao Bai's face, and said, "Most of my girlfriends are from business families, and they can't attend various banquets in a short time. It's also to blame you for being too sincere, they fight you for one by five or six, and you are really stupid to drink with them. I'll give you a count, you drank at least two bottles of white wine, four or five bottles of red wine, and a few beers, so many of them, and mixed them, even a cow should be drunk. It's good that you can still come back standing now. Why don't you take a shower and get some sleep? ”,,,
