Chapter 250: Life is at its peak again
The elders are all discussing the next development direction of the Huaxia Xiuzhen Realm and the Sjack family of the Eagle Kingdom, Gou Haodong has no top strength or vision, and no official status, so he is not qualified to talk among the big guys. However, he was happy to be idle, because in the morning, the chief specially instructed the head chef to prepare a dish of boiling cabbage for Gou Haodong.
The old man also came from a young age, and knew that Gou Haodong was not only greedy, but also wanted to experience that feeling, so he simply asked people to find a room, set up the facilities, and arrange the service staff and meals according to the specifications of the state banquet.
Sitting at the atmospheric and high-pressure dining table, Gou Haodong was a little excited in his heart, he enjoyed the same treatment as foreign leaders, and he was at the peak of his life in one step.
The young lady in the red formal cheongsam twisted her slender waist, and served delicious food on a tray covered with red silk with her long legs. Gou Haodong saw it in his eyes, swallowing his saliva fiercely, and he didn't know if it was the beautiful etiquette lady or the rice in their hands.
The foreman's young lady smiled in her heart when she saw Gou Haodong's performance.
The above has been instructed, this little brother is not simple, he has made many contributions to the country, although he didn't say what it is, but it doesn't seem to be a trivial matter. We must take good care of it, and we must not neglect it.
In fact, the handsome and handsome face of his younger brother must also be taken care of.
Because it was dinner, the selection was relatively light, without premature preparation, and there were no too bells and whistles, and the simple four-course dishes were not large: Gou Haodong's boiling cabbage, as well as small vegetarian buns, lime prawns, and Wensi tofu.
"Hello Mr. Gou Haodong, we will serve you at this banquet." The foreman's young lady smiled perfectly and bowed slightly.
"Ah, hello sister, I'll just eat it myself, don't bother you." Gou Haodong hurriedly waved his hand.
Many people are willing to eat Haidilao, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is still hot pot, the same thing, but many people just want to eat that service, and some people are meticulous and caring on the side, as if they have traveled back to be a princess and a brother.
Gou Haodong doesn't like it, it's too embarrassing, and he treats people as giant babies. I have hands and feet, and I can't do it.
The young lady foreman was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted that this handsome brother was probably misunderstood and thought that they would feed her, and her excellent professionalism immediately made her respond without embarrassment on both sides: "Then do you need me to introduce you to it?" ”
She turned around and signaled, and the other young ladies understood, and gently exited the room.
"Okay, then it's troublesome sister." Gou Haodong said gratefully: "Why don't you eat with me?" I can't finish four dishes myself. ”
"Thank you for your kindness, this is prepared for you, the four dishes are exquisite, according to your meal size." The young lady explained.
Gou Haodong scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Sister, I have to trouble you again." ”
"What's wrong?"
"Can you give me a whole portion of rice, I don't eat pasta, I'm not used to it. The small vegetarian bun is too small to eat. Gou Haodong's face was a little red, but eating is one of the most enjoyable things in life, and the opportunity is rare, even if he is cheeky and makes a request, he has to admit it.
The forelady covered her mouth and chuckled, and nodded: "You're right, I'll let them send one over, soon, don't worry, eat the dishes first, and chew the rice." ”
Gou Haodong snorted, watched the graceful figure of the young lady leave the room, and went to the table again, a little distracted.
Although this young lady is not as good-looking as her girlfriend, she has a dignified and friendly temperament, and a perfect figure with a little more and less lack, which is more attractive. It's a bit similar to Jiang Qiantang, but it's still different.
Say a confession from the bottom of your heart, and refocus on the delicious food in front of you.
"Let's start now, shall we?" The young lady smiled.
Gou Haodong wrapped his napkin around and picked up his chopsticks, indicating that he was ready.
"Eat Wensi tofu first." The young lady opened the lid: "Wensi tofu is a traditional famous dish in Jiangsu with a long history, which originated in Yangzhou and belongs to Huaiyang cuisine and Suzhou cuisine. I heard that you are from the north, have you ever eaten it? ”
Gou Haodong shook his head, listening to this name is very southern, the north is all iron pot stewed hens, pig killing dishes and other dish names, real to tears.
"Then let me introduce it in detail, the Qing dynasty Yu Yue's "Tea Fragrance Room Cong Banknotes" recorded in the text: 'Wen Si Zi Xifu, Gong Poem, and good at tofu soup sweet porridge. Those who have followed its example so far are called Wensi Tofu. This is the origin of its name, and this dish is also called 'assorted tofu soup' in the "Tiaoding Collection". ”
"It is extremely strict in the selection of materials, fine knife work, soft and mellow, melts in the mouth, and at the same time has the effects of regulating malnutrition, replenishing deficiency and nourishing the body, etc., and the taste and edible value are extremely high."
"The side dishes inside include winter bamboo shoots, chicken breast, shiitake mushrooms, etc., although there are no particularly expensive ingredients, but because the combination is reasonable, it has the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort. This is one of the chef's best dishes, and he cooks it with ingenuity, he personally knows every process, and the heat and time are tested with sophisticated tools. ”
Gou Haodong sighed secretly, it is worthy of a state banquet, and tofu can be made into flowers.
Tasted, as the young lady said, the taste is soft and smooth, and the taste is fragrant and delicious.
"The reason why I want to put this dish at the top is because it is a neutral, hot dish that can make the stomach more comfortable." The young lady watched Gou Haodong eat two spoonfuls of tofu, a chopstick to side dishes, took a sip of the soup and explained again, lifted the second lid, and continued to introduce: "Let's taste this dish, lime prawns." The reason for placing it in the second course is that it has a heavier flavor and a stronger seasoning, and if you taste it too early, it will affect the taste buds and cause other dishes that are known for their deliciousness to not be able to show their charm. ”
I see, Gou Haodong suddenly remembered those wine tastings, tea tastings or whatever, they are so exquisite.
There are only four shrimps, with crystal clear white flesh intersecting bright red lines, wrapped in golden potato chips, and at the bottom is pumpkin, surrounded by lime and parsley leaves. Standing in the middle is the shrimp head, which makes the layering of this dish more distinct.
"I won't introduce the specific method, this dish is actually a westernized style, mainly grilled, with a unique taste, you can taste it yourself to feel it."
Gou Haodong picked up the fork next to him and carefully inserted a shrimp into his mouth. What a fragrant word! The mellow aroma of potatoes and pumpkin wrapped around the smell of grilled shrimp, which made Gou Haodong fall deeply, and what made him even more difficult to extricate himself was the taste, a little elastic, but not stiff.
"Delicious!" Gou Haodong couldn't help but praise him.
The young lady nodded and smiled: "Taste it first, if you eat it with a big meal, you won't have to eat it later." ”
Gou Haodong reluctantly looked away, looked at the young lady in charge, and waited for her to introduce the next one.
"This is a small vegetarian bun. Pasta is the most unique delicacy in our Chinese country, and it is also the lowest threshold and the most common food. The reason why I chose this dish is to let you experience the style of the state banquet and how to express our culture with food. ”
Gou Haodong picked up the chopsticks again, picked one up and sent it to his mouth, the bun was very small, the diameter was the length of the thumb, the flower folds were very beautiful, and the flat body was full of vegetables.
"This is an over-the-top dish, so you can taste the heavy prawns and then clear your mouth, and try the last and most important dish, boiled cabbage." The young lady watched Gou Haodong swallow the little bun, and continued to introduce it after a few seconds. She mastered the timing very well, neither interrupting Gou Haodong's swallowing process, nor putting Gou Haodong in an embarrassing situation because she was too slow.
"Mmmm, I've heard about this dish for a long time, but I haven't had a chance to eat it." Gou Haodong reverently put away the tableware, bowed his head slightly, and waited for the moment when the lid was lifted with wide eyes.
The young lady didn't let him wait for a long time, and brought a palm-sized cup to Gou Haodong.
The clear soup base is filled with yellowish and snow-white baby cabbage, and a few red wolfberries for garnish.
"That's it?" Gou Haodong looked at the young lady innocently.
To tell the truth, this question stopped the foreman, after all, no one will be picky about the number of dishes at the state banquet. "This, after all, keep improving, the more precious things are, the fewer things are, and the fewer things are more precious, this is all an immutable truth, right?"
Gou Haodong nodded: "Indeed, I heard that the process is particularly cumbersome......"
"Oh, then tell me about this dish, and I'll hear if there's a big difference between what you remember and what you actually have." The foreman said.
"This dish is expensive in 'boiling water', the so-called boiling water is actually a hanging broth, and the success or failure lies in this 'boiling water', not cabbage. Well, I mean, the stock is more of a hassle than the ingredients. ”
The forelady smiled: "That's right, then do you know the back?" ”
"I probably know that the soup made of chicken, duck and pork belly takes nine hours, and it takes nine hours to constantly blend, and the requirements for the chef's patience and control of the heat are quite perverted."
"Your word is humorous." The young lady said: "You're right, since you know that it's not easy, then please taste it seriously." ”
Gou Haodong nodded, reverently tore off a small piece of cabbage with chopsticks and put it in his mouth.
An indescribable sense of satisfaction swells in the heart, and the taste buds bloom with infinite deliciousness.
"Sure enough, it was the right choice for me to ask the Demon Sky Blood Moon for this." Gou Haodong muttered.
There was a knock on the door, and Miss Manners came in with a small bowl of rice and put it in front of Gou Haodong: "Sir, the rice you want." ”
Gou Haodong looked at the rice, and then looked at the young lady in charge.
"Enjoy, I'm gone, goodbye."
