Chapter 35 French Dinner
Compared with modern Chinese food, French cuisine is really cumbersome.

First, there are etiquette rules.

Ladies first, gentlemanly, the seats must be opened for the ladies, if there are multiple ladies, you need to wait until all the ladies are seated before you can take a seat.

When eating, your hands need to be placed on the table. Putting them under the table is offensive and rude.

The napkin should be placed flat on the colorful cover and tied around the neck when eating seafood.

Keep your body upright and don't lean against the back of the chair.

Do not wipe your hands and mouth vigorously, just gently print off the oil stains with the corner of the napkin.

Then there is the arrangement and matching of utensils.

For example, large cups hold water, medium cups hold wine, small cups hold white wine, thin cups hold champagne, and porcelain cups hold coffee or tea.

To hold different cups, you must have a corresponding decent posture.

When eating, pay attention to the rules.

Different foods should be paired with different wine glasses.

And the placement of utensils and tableware is even more meticulous, with clear distinctions, exaggerated to the point of using a ruler to be precise.

Next, is the process and order of serving dishes.

The first course is an aperitif.

Generally, wine, fruit sweat, soda water, champagne and other low-alcohol drinks are paired with some appetizers, such as pistachios, olives, and cheese.

The second course is the appetizer.

Generally, it is salad, seafood, cold cuts, vegetables, soup, etc., the amount is not large, and the stomach is warmed up.

Third is the main course.

There are generally only a dozen kinds of French main dishes, such as fried foie gras, steak, lamb chops, snails, cod, fresh truffles, salmon caviar and so on.

The ingredients are carefully selected, most of which are top-notch.

The fourth course is dessert, including ice cream with cakes of various flavors, and a variety of cheeses.

Last step: coffee or tea.

After drinking and eating, have a cup of hot drink, which can not only relieve greasiness, but also improve brain refreshment.

During the meal, every time a dish is eaten, the waiter will take away the relevant tableware and utensils and replace them with the utensils and tableware of the next dish.

At the same time, the wine paired with each dish is also different.

For example, red wine with red meat, white wine (champagne white wine) with white meat, dessert wine with dessert.

Usually after a French meal, the meal time is at least two hours.

More than three hours.

So people often joke that they are hungry again after eating.

Juzhou 1910 restaurant is the most authentic French restaurant in Xingsha, and all processes are strictly implemented according to the standards.

There is also a French dining etiquette guide.

If diners fail to meet their etiquette standards, they will be blacklisted at least, or asked to leave.

That's actually quite rude.

There are even suspicions of illegality.

But the diners still prefer to eat this set, vying for it, and even becoming the capital to show off in the circle of friends.

This is the case with these ten tasters.

At least mostly.

Now they are excited, with anticipation on their faces.

They have eaten a lot of French meals.

I have been to this restaurant many times.

However, it is the first time for many people to eat the French chef prepared by Chef Frank himself, and they have been admiring it for a long time.
You must know that Frank is a Mi Xinglin star chef.

It is well-known in the French kitchen industry.

As the head chef, Frank seldom does it himself, except for special cases or important guests.So even as his friend, it is rare to eat it once.

Available but not available.

Soon, the first course was served.

Amber champagne.

Served with olives and cheese.

Each of the ten appraisers sat upright, looking devoutly worshiping, and they were even more 'noble' than the most proud French nobles in the Middle Ages.

If I have to use two words to describe it: pretense!
Only Liang Yun is relaxed and natural, neither letting herself go, nor rigid.

Every move is elegant and calm.

This innate, deep-rooted temperament is difficult to imitate.

Another difference from them is that the champagne in her glass is obviously richer, deeper, and full-bodied, which is the characteristic of top-quality champagne.

Obviously, Liang Yun's status is much more important than theirs.

First aperitif.

After everyone finished drinking, they either closed their eyes and thought about it, or nodded repeatedly.

The second appetizer.

Ten people are all seafood plates, with oysters and shrimp, served with lemon and mayonnaise.When the lemon juice was squeezed on it, the oyster meat trembled slightly and was extremely tender.

After everyone finished eating, their expressions were extremely rich, and they gave thumbs up frequently to praise, saying that this was the best seafood plate they had ever eaten, bar none.

Liang Yun is a soup.

French creamy mushroom soup, the mushrooms are made of matsutake, which is a proper high-end ingredient.

The third main course.

The filet mignon made by Frank himself is airlifted from a designated ranch in France and is exclusively for high-end French restaurants.

Serve with a glass of red wine.

The presentation is very beautiful, exquisite and picturesque.

When the waiter informed that this filet mignon was made by Chef Frank himself, everyone smiled happily.

I have been waiting for a long time!
I couldn't wait to cut it open and take a big bite. It was tender and juicy and melted in my mouth. The pores of the ten tasters opened instantly and their faces were intoxicated.

Take another sip of red wine.

Everyone looked at each other, and suddenly felt that the happiest thing in life was this.

A Michelin-starred chef, he really lives up to his reputation.

Ate this time.

At least half a year can be boasted.

Different from them, Liang Yun is a pan-fried foie gras.

The matching red wine is Lafite 82.

Liang Yun's expression was also very satisfied. She had eaten it many times, and she had to admit that this time Frank's performance was obviously beyond normal.

Then every fourth, fifth.
2 hours have passed.

Towards the end, Frank appeared proudly in front of everyone wearing a tall chef hat.

Immediately, everyone stood up.

Thunderous applause!

"Thank you, Mr. Frank, for letting me know what real world-class food is!"

"Amazing and delicious."

“It was also the best, most amazing dining experience of my life.”

"To tell you the truth, even if the fine liquid is placed in front of me now, I'm afraid it's nothing more than that."

The ten appraisers applauded without hesitation in their praise.

Frank returned the gift very gentlemanly.

There is a flange-style self-confidence and pride on his face.

"By the way, where is the country chef?"

"What did he do?"

"Guys, I really want to say that whatever he's doing, I'm not even a little bit interested.

"Me too."

"I want to announce my result right now: Mr. Frank, you have won!"

Everyone flattered and flattered them.

Liang Yun was also very curious.

What exactly is Yang Xiao preparing for?
In fact, the current situation is both unfair and disadvantageous to him.

Not to mention that these ten people are all Frank's friends, yearning for the Western spiritual world.Let's just say that two hours have passed, and everyone has almost eaten.

When a person is hungry, eating anything will add a bit of deliciousness.

On the contrary, no matter how delicious the food is, it is nothing more than that.

So Yang Xiao has almost no chance of winning!

Over the years, Liang Yun has eaten a lot of the top Chinese delicacies.

There are amazing, but also plain.

But at this moment, it is difficult to overturn any Huaguo delicacies.

So as the chief referee, Liang Yun is making a decision, and this decision may not be so fair.

But so what?

This world is not fair!
