Rebirth without Regrets

Chapter 151 Western Restaurant

When guests arrive, the hotel waiter will pour each guest a glass of emerald-colored cocktail, said to be made with rum, sugar, lemon and mint. This cocktail will "shock" the taste buds.

"The stimulation is like mint, not alcohol.

After a glass of wine, you will feel sober. Next, you can taste the restaurant's delicacies one after another. There are usually more than 20 dishes, and the meal can last up to 4 hours.

It’s a bit cliché to say “dining”. Dining here is more like accepting the baptism of catering culture. The waiters are familiar with every dish. They will introduce the ingredients and how to eat each dish in detail. Many things that people often eat are passed here.

When the chef's hands make it, the taste changes into something else. For example, popcorn will melt on its own when you put it on your tongue, leaving you with endless aftertaste.

In order to ensure service and quality, Louis XV Western Restaurant only receives 50 guests per night. For this reason, many people who want to taste their Western restaurant have to make reservations in advance. When business is booming, reservations are even queued up to three people.

months later.

At first, Zhu Jianjun followed Leng Binghan's wishes and spent a lot of money to acquire this western restaurant. In addition to retaining the main store, he also carried it forward and moved it into Feiyuan Hotel, becoming Feiyuan International Hotel.

It is an indispensable supporting western restaurant.

Of course, the emergency trained chefs, receptionists, waiters and some original dishes cannot meet the highest standards of the main store, but compared with ordinary Western restaurants, it still has its own charm.

For this reason, it is very popular with some foreigners, especially in Hong Kong, Beijing, and Shanghai. Many foreigners coming to China stay at Feiyuan International Hotel just for this Louis XV Western Restaurant.

The east podium of Chengdu Feiyuan International Hotel is the dining area of ​​the hotel. From Chinese food on the first floor, hot pot on the second floor, Western food on the third floor, to various specialty snacks and dishes on the fourth floor, everything is available. And in the west podium

The building is a variety of fitness, leisure and entertainment venues.

As soon as Leng Binghan and Xiao Lu stepped out of the elevator, a waiter in his early twenties, with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a beautiful uniform, who was very charming, came up to them, welcomed them in blunt Chinese, and took them to their seats.

Lead away.

In fact, Western restaurants in Feiyuan International Hotel elsewhere do not necessarily use blond foreigners as waiters. As long as they have a good image and temperament, good English skills, and can communicate briefly with foreign guests and conduct systematic Western restaurant operations

Anyone with etiquette and service training can be employed. However, this Louis XV Western Restaurant in Chengdu, Leng Binghan is for Wang Yingying. Compared with other places, it must be more special and special, and the requirements are not the same as other places.

It's different. Not only is the chef an authentic chef specially sent from the Louis XV Headquarters, but the management staff and waiters of this Western restaurant are all carefully selected from foreign countries.

These requirements may be difficult for ordinary people, and the cost and price are too high, which is completely uneconomical. But Leng Binghan did not think about making money when he opened this Western restaurant. And Zhu Jianjun spared no effort in meeting Leng Binghan's requirements.

It is done locally, backed by Feiyuan's absolute strength, and with high salary and benefits, foreigners are also flocking to it. Therefore, in this Louis XV Western restaurant in Chengdu, the male and female waiters are all handsome men and women with blond hair and blue eyes.

For Chengdu, which is located inland and people rarely see foreigners, it is indeed quite eye-catching. In the eyes of future generations, it is completely a highlight of news and advertising hype.

The layout of the western restaurant is decorated with bright plum red and different shades of blue, bringing playfulness and warmth to the originally cold glass building. The original wooden floor and red flower bed extend from the elevator entrance to the interior, like a strip

The tie of brown and red runs throughout.

Each booth is decorated with originality. The tables and chairs are also in red and wood colors. The red soft sofas and chairs are suitable for taking a rest. There is also a small bar with high chairs on one side of the wall.

There is a small high platform in the fountain in the center, with a white piano placed on it. A beautiful woman with long hair and a white dress is playing soft music on it.

It's the kind of thing that can be appreciated in silence, but the conversation will completely ignore what makes the guests most comfortable.

There were about five floors of guests sitting at the dining table in the hall, as well as a small number of foreigners, most of whom were dressed in formal attire. They were enjoying the food and chatting in low voices. The atmosphere was very good.

Seeing this situation, Leng Binghan is quite satisfied. The Louis XV Western Restaurant located in a five-star hotel naturally costs a lot of money. It has only been open for less than ten days and it has such an attendance rate.

It was really not easy, and it was much better than I expected.

Leng Binghan and Xiao Lu were led by the waiter to a couple's dining table by the window. Leng Binghan pulled out the chair in a gentlemanly manner and signaled Xiao Lu to come in before moving the chair back. After sitting down, he

Then he sat down on the other side.

The dining table is covered with a snow-white tablecloth, and bright cutlery, cutlery, and forks are neatly placed.

"What do you two need?" After the two of them sat down, the waiter handed the menu to Xiao Lu. In her opinion, these two people should be two siblings, so the ordering was naturally left to her.

The adult sister is in charge.

"Well, this..." Looking through the beautifully made recipes with pictures of the dishes and annotations in Chinese and English, Xiao Lu didn't know what to say. Ever since she entered this magnificent hotel, she had been feeling very scared.

She was so uneasy and uneasy that she felt at a loss. She was afraid that she would be embarrassed if she did something wrong. This invisible pressure was so great that it almost made her breathless.

Suddenly she remembered that she had a meal coupon, and the meal coupon seemed to have a specified menu. She hurriedly looked for the two meal coupons, but she couldn't find them. Now she was even more shocked, buzzing.

There was a sound, and my mind went blank. I was at a loss, and I didn't know what to do.

"How about you try our set meal series, which is also very good!" Seeing that Xiao Lu didn't seem very familiar with it, the waitress suggested. In order to adapt to Chinese culture, many Western and Western restaurants in China offer set menu services.

In order to prevent some guests who are not familiar with Western food from not knowing how to match the dishes to make them more delicious, they will make a joke.

Of course, most people who are familiar with Western food will not choose this method, because it always gives people an unauthentic feeling. Western food itself is a kind of culture and an atmosphere, and it is this style that we pay attention to.

"No, I, I..." Xiao Lu was so anxious that she almost cried, and the clear water in her eyes was ready to go. It didn't matter that she was embarrassed today, but Xiaohan was also embarrassed, and she was really worried.

Unable to express sadness and self-blame.

At this moment, Leng Binghan said to the waitress: "Bring this lady grilled garlic lamb chops with grilled vegetables, Grieg grilled sea bass, and La Traviata seafood soup. Give me a Verdi

Lamb chops, a piece of salmon, a piece of beef rib, served with cream of mushroom soup.”

"Okay, I'll be here right away!" The waitress repeated it to make sure it was correct and then recorded it in her book. She looked at the child with some surprise.

Leng Binghan ordered these dishes. It's not that they are very expensive, but they all go well together from the nutritional point of view, the taste, and the order of Western food. And he looks very skillful and experienced.

It doesn’t feel like it’s the first time to eat Western food. Could it be that this child came back from abroad? Otherwise, how could he be so familiar?

Full of doubts, she was about to turn around and leave when Leng Binghan stopped her again and asked: "Is there a Lafite from 1982?"

The waitress was even more shocked and couldn't stand. Lafite red wine is not cheap to begin with, and the 1982 Lafite is even more expensive. It can be said that a bottle is hard to find, and it is impossible to get it without spending thousands of dollars. Here

There is no such good wine on hand.

She turned around and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, there is no Lafite in 1982, only one in 1988. Do you need it?"

"I don't want the one from 1988. Is there any Haagen-Dazs ice cream?" Leng Binghan thought for a while and asked. In fact, he doesn't drink much at all, but thinking about eating Western food with Xiao Lu, it seems that he feels a bit uncomfortable without wine.

Lacking. He had only heard of the 82-year-old Lafite in his previous life. He had never had the opportunity to taste such a good wine, so he suddenly had a whim and wanted to try it, but if he didn't have it, forget it.

"Yes! Haagen-Dazs has various series of ice cream." The waitress replied politely. She felt that she was not communicating with a child, but with an aristocratic gentleman. That kind of indifference

The somewhat arrogant demeanor and the kind of taste that would rather be lacking than excessive are definitely not something that can be faked.

"Well, then give us two servings of Flame Mountain!" Haagen-Dazs Flame Mountain is a famous brand of Haagen-Dazs ice cream. Its taste, color, and appearance are not much different from other ice creams, but its uniqueness

The best thing about it is its heat resistance. The raging fire below is still burning, but the ice cream on top still hasn't melted at all. It can be said to be a "miracle". Leng Binghan had eaten this kind of ice cream in his previous life, and it left a deep impression on him.

At this moment, I couldn't help but think of this ice cream.

"Okay, two portions of Haagen-Dazs Flame Mountain. You really know the goods. This ice cream is very popular!" The waitress couldn't help but presented a tall hat. She also used "you" in her words.

Honorific words.

Seeing that they had no other needs, the waitress smiled what she thought was her most charming smile and then stepped back gracefully.

"Xiaohan, how come such a high-end Western restaurant doesn't even have the Lafite you want?" Xiao Lu wrinkled her nose and muttered in a low voice.
