Chapter 39: Dinner (2)
The dining room in the Doge's Palace is not very large, probably only forty or fifty square meters.
The furnishings in the restaurant are very simple, there is not too much fancy, and the whole restaurant is painted in bright red, giving people a feeling of appetite.
On the north side of the dining room is a long dining table covered with a layer of white cloth.
The Governor of Chels sat down on the throne, Lady Chris sat on the left-hand side, Sachar on the right-hand side, and the other children sat down on either side, and Alai did not know where to go.
When everyone was seated, the servants began to bring dishes to the table.
As the saying goes: the people take food as the sky.
Every ethnic group in the world has its own special cuisine, which is made according to the local customs and geographical environment, and the Blago people are no exception.
Zachar doesn't have many hobbies, one of which is to taste the specialties of various places.
Now that you have come to the province of Blago, it is natural to have a good taste of the local cuisine.
"Zachar, you have a blessed day. Today's Blago Province, if you want to say anything else, is really nothing more than God, but this delicacy alone definitely has its unique taste. Governor Chels said with a smile, pointing to the dish in front of him.
"Oh, what do you say, is there any mystery to the cuisine of the province of Blago?" asked Saga curiously.
"You are a northerner, and you eat cheese, bread and beef and mutton every day. The taste of the cuisine in this Bulago Province is very different from that of the north, in addition to the traditional food of the Bulago tribe itself, there are also some flavors of the Elven Kingdom, as well as the flavors of the dishes of the neighboring provinces, in general, it is sour, sweet and spicy. ”
In fact, Saga had long expected that because of the heavy humidity, the south prefers sweet and spicy food, even if there is no such thing as chopsticks in this world, but this is impossible to prevent human beings from inventing some foods suitable for local people.
The first thing the servant served was sauerkraut, a traditional food of the Blago clan.
Pickled in almost every household, it must be eaten at every meal.
"It's a good thing, and it's a great relief to eat in the summer, especially in a place like Blago that is hot all year round. ”
"Also, sauerkraut can also be used to make sour soup, because in the past, there was not much salt in Blago Province, and the people here were weak and weak because of the lack of salt. Later, when I ate these soups made with sauerkraut and a kind of sour fruit, I felt that my appetite was greatly increased and my physical strength was strong. This thing is indeed good for the body. ”
"Your Excellency, you really don't look like an outsider now. Saga laughed and said, "It's just a treasure!"
"Haha, yes, I've been here for a long time, and I've even learned dialects. Governor Chelse also said with a smile.
As he spoke, the two servants brought a large iron pot together.
"Mr. Sagar, this is made by the concubine herself, Bulago stewed chicken. It's one of the most famous dishes of the Blago family, and I've been learning it a long time to make a little bit of flavor. Mrs. Chris introduced with a smile: "Moreover, there is a myth and legend on this dish." ”
"Oh, what legend?" said Zagar, intrigued.
"I know, I know. The little boy Riel said loudly.
"Okay, then Riel can tell Mister Zachar about it. Lady Chrissy laughed.
"Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a tribe of Blago people in the land of Blago, who liked to eat chickens the most, and there was a feast among the tribes called the Hundred Chicken Feast. In their clan rules, there is a festival for men and women to marry and worship the gods. The best hunters of this tribe would go deep into the mountains to catch all kinds of pheasants, and then put them in large iron pots, and the tribe leaders would kill the pheasants with their own hands, and then the best cooks would make the food. They would add a lot of mountain fruits and bay leaves to the food, and the chicken would be fragrant for ten miles, and then this dish was born. Riel said in one breath, apparently very skillfully remembered.
"Bang bang!" said Saga clapping his hands lightly, "Little one, you are great." ”
The little guy who was very brave just now was a little embarrassed, blushing, and hurriedly lowered his head and began to eat.
"Alright, let's eat quickly. Governor Chelse beckoned everyone to hurry up and eat.
Everyone involuntarily straightened up, everyone was educated in various manners since childhood, which was almost an instinctive behavior.
Saga ate the chicken first, forked a piece with a fork, and prepared to taste what it tasted like.
He had great expectations, and the results did not disappoint him, the chicken was so smooth and tender in his mouth that the aroma almost filled his entire taste buds.
"Lady Chrissy, your cooking skills are absolutely masterful. Saga couldn't stop complimenting: "Did you ever study at St. Tulip Academy?"
"Oh, is it obvious?" asked Lady Chrissy with a smile.
"Because my mother also studied at St. Tulip's College, and the noble women who came out of that academy seem to have a very obvious quality. This can also be felt in the preparation of these meals. ”
St. Tulip College.
It is a very old academy that was born during the time of Julius Caesar.
During that period, the empire had its first female duke, and the emperor canonized her as Duke of Tulip.
She then established an academy under her own title, admitting only female cadets and teaching them to become true nobles and a powerful woman.
Although the overall strength is not as strong as the Academy of Saint-Trajan, it is not inferior to the Academy of Saint-Trajan in some special aspects, and it is one of the several highest-level colleges in the Empire.
Looking at Governor Chelse and Lady Chrissy, Saga suddenly had a very strange feeling.
The two people in front of him are very good people, but I have never heard of their names in my past life and this life.
Sagar always felt that he had forgotten something very important, which was probably why he had not heard of the Governor of Chelse in his previous life.
But because of the sequelae of rebirth, there are many memories of his previous life that he did not personally experience, and they are pressed into the deepest part of the memory, and if they are not touched, it is difficult to remember, and this is the case now.
Saga always felt that he had forgotten something, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Zachar, what's wrong with you?" came the voice of Governor Chels.
Hearing the voice, Saga immediately came back to his senses: "My lord, I'm fine, I'm just a little distracted. ”
"Alright, keep eating. ”
