Chapter 136: On the Table

When Gervais and Pat arrived side by side in the dining room, the long tables were already filled with food.

However, one thing that is different about this long table is that the seafood on the long table is all grilled by Jimmy's apprentice.

The 20 gold coins that Gervais had received from Gandalf had bottomed out over time.

After learning that Pat would come to the Golden Castle as a guest, Gervais hit Pat with his idea, and at that time Gervais did not know that Pat would buy Warcraft meat, because he was short of money, so he wanted to make his first seafood business money on Pat.

The reason why Jimmy didn't make the seafood for this lunch was because he was worried that Jimmy's craftsmanship was too good, and after Baron Pat tasted it, he would keep it in mind that if Jimmy's apprentice went to Pat's castle to make or teach the craft in the future, if the taste was not as delicious as this time, Pat would misunderstand that Gervais had received money but cheated.

"Baron Gervais, what kind of dishes are these, just smelling them makes people salivate!"

After Gervais and Pat sat down at both ends of the long table, they smelled the unique aroma of the many dishes in front of them, which made Pat have some expectations for the food in front of him.

"Baron Pat, the name aside, you can taste which dishes suit your taste first, and I will tell you in detail when the time comes! But one thing I can assure you is that Baron Pat you won't taste the delicacies of my castle anywhere else! ”

Gervais sold a pass, but urged Pat to taste it first, and boasted about Haikou.

"Oh? Baron Gervais is so confident, I'll take a closer look. ”

Hearing Gervais's half-joking, half-boastful appearance, Pat's curiosity was completely hooked, and after he finished speaking, he didn't say much, picked up the knife and fork and chose the most domineering lobster and started to start.

This large lobster is huge, a pair of pincers is more than 20 centimeters long, and the body is almost half a meter long, much larger than most lobsters that Gervais has ever seen on the earth, and this lobster is the same as the villagers of the seaside mountain village who caught it and brought it to the castle for Gervais to enjoy.

The shell of the lobster has been removed by the chef when it is made, except for the head of the lobster, the whole shrimp tail is only left with tender and juicy shrimp meat, Pat directly selected the middle part and pressed the knife and fork, cut off a large piece of shrimp meat and immediately put it in his mouth.

When the shrimp meat was eaten, Patter's eyes lit up, and he looked at this not unusual lobster in disbelief, and after slowly chewing and swallowing the shrimp meat into his stomach, Pat raised his head and asked Gervais, "Baron Gervais, is there anything special about this lobster?" Why does he taste so special? Completely different from what I used to eat? ”

"Hehe, lobster is just ordinary lobster, the special thing is only in the cooking process, Baron Pat, and that shell-like delicacy you haven't tasted yet, taste that shell first, you will find that lobster is really just an appetizer!"

Because of the huge size of the lobster, although there is garlic to improve the taste, but it is very difficult to taste, so the impact on the taste buds is not great, and the experience when eating is more about the tenderness of the meat.

Of course, this impact is not big, but for Gervais, for Pat, who tasted this delicious food for the first time, he has already regarded the dish of lobster as a rare delicacy.

"Really?"

Hearing Gervais's words, Pat was a little incredulous, this lobster had reached the top in his opinion, both in appearance and taste, and Pat was sure that even if he handed over this lobster to the chef of Winterfell, it might not make it so delicious.

If you don't believe it, but there is no need for Gervais to make a fool of himself, Pat followed the shells that Gervais said, and immediately saw more than a dozen shells that had been opened in a porcelain plate, and saw that some places outside the shells had been scorched black, but there was no shell meat in the shells.

This appearance couldn't help but make Pat frown, Pat didn't have a habit of cleanliness, but Pat hadn't tasted anything that was close to burning, so Pat raised his head again and looked at Gervais, wanting to seek Gervais's explanation.

When Pat looked up, he saw Gervais looking at him with a smile, nodded to him, and motioned for him to taste it at ease.

Receiving Gervais's sure meaning, Pat couldn't excuse it anymore, raised his hand and took out a shell from the porcelain plate that looked good and put it in front of him, but the things contained in the shell were some tiny particles that Pat had never seen, and there were a lot of tiny particles in the lobster plate, but Pat thought it was just a certain ingredient and didn't care, but he didn't expect that this ingredient could also be eaten, and according to Gervais, this is still something more delicious than a big lobster.

After staring for a moment, Pat put the shell to his mouth, and in his other hand took the silver spoon to stuff the entire shell into his mouth, he had just seen how Gervais ate it.

When the minced garlic and oyster meat in the shell were eaten, Baron Pat was shaken, and his eyes showed an expression of disbelief, as if he had been struck by lightning.

"How is this done?"

Pat finally understood at this point what Gervais meant by the big lobster being just an appetizer. The taste of this inconspicuous, dirty-looking roasted seashell is many times more intense than that of lobster, with a fragrant aroma and a smooth and slightly spicy taste, which stimulates the mouth to continuously secrete saliva, making the whole brain full of excitement and satisfaction.

Quickly swallowing the food in his mouth, Pat did not ask Gervais for the first time, but took a shell again and put it in his hand and began to eat again, and no longer disliked the slightly burnt appearance of the oyster, so after eating five shells in a row, Pat took the square towel handed by the servant and wiped his hands, and then looked at Gervais with a happy face and asked: "Baron Gervais, I have a reluctant request......

"Stop! We'll talk about the rest later, and there's a good thing I have here, and Baron Pat certainly hasn't tasted it either! ”

Pat was about to say something, but was immediately interrupted by Gervais, who had been paying attention to him.

After interrupting Pat's words, Gervais didn't care if he was unreasonable like this, and said directly to Anna next to him: "Anna, take out my golden wine!" ”

From Pat's reaction to eating lobster and oysters, Gervais felt that he had already eaten Pat, a local tyrant, so he took out the wine that he was not currently ready to sell, and prepared to make a fortune from the local tyrant in front of him.

"Yes, sir!"

Soon, Anna came out of the kitchen with a delicate silver kettle.

Arriving at the long table, Anna carefully poured a glass of wine for Gervais with a silver kettle, and then went to Baron Pat's side and poured a glass for Baron Pat.
