Chapter 1468 Orleans Food
Early the next morning, Zhen Fan went through the car rental procedures nearby and rented a French Renault off-road vehicle. A group of four people set off towards Bordeaux. Sophia sat in the passenger cab and helped Zhen Fan point out the direction. Going south along the Seine River, the scenery of the Seine River along the way is indeed very beautiful and makes people linger.
The French cars I saw along the way were mostly small cars, and few people drove large and medium-sized off-road vehicles like Americans, speeding on the road. The scenery beside the road does have a unique beauty. An hour later, in a small town called Gentigan, Beet bought some food and water and filled up the car. It is estimated that there is no need to refuel along the way. As soon as Bit got into the car, Sophia looked at him strangely and said, "Do you Americans like to eat in the car? It's really hard to understand."
"Isn't that so?" Bit was taken aback, then looked at Sophia, "Yes, we usually eat on the road, don't you?" Then he looked at Johnny who was sitting in the back row like himself and said .
"Don't look at me, I didn't come to France to eat on the road, this is the first time!" Johnny shrugged at Bit, "Compared with the bread in your hand, I prefer the little bread on the side of the road." Taste delicious French food in the town. More distinctive food!" He said and made a disdainful expression at Bit.
"Okay, this is my problem. I thought France would be as desolate as the United States. You should know that there are few small towns and inhabited places on American roads." Bit smiled helplessly, "But since you bought it, don't waste it. Hey, Zhen, do you want it?"
"No, I think the same as Johnny, I don't like bread, keep it for yourself!" Zhen Fan also smiled proudly, "France is located in the center of Europe. And it's not as sparsely populated as the United States, so We can find a lot of delicious food you want to find on the side of the road. You don't have to be lonely on the road like in the United States. It takes a long time to meet a small town. This is the result of going out and not doing your homework. So...don't complain and enjoy you Let's eat delicious food!"
In fact, as Zhen Fan said, you will see a small town every less than a dozen miles. Sometimes the road passes directly through the town, and you can buy some small gourmet shops from the side of the road. s things. Small town in Europe. It is more emotional than small towns in the United States, and it also looks a lot more quaint. But Zhen Fan didn't stop, because according to Sophia, a famous French city, Orléans, was coming soon.
In fact, the city of Orleans was severely damaged during World War II. The ancient city had to be rebuilt later, but when it was rebuilt, it could retain the style of the ancient city. So when Zhen Fan and the others entered this city, they couldn't help but feel the depth of history here.
Sophia loves to see the happy eyes of Johnny and Beetle. After all, this city can amaze them, and she feels very happy in her heart. But this is for Zhen Fan. It seems more general. My own country itself has a civilization of 5,000 years. Compared with France, it can be said to have more historical charm.
It's just that there are really not many ancient cities in China that can maintain their original appearance. This is a bit regrettable, and there is relatively little humanistic care.
Several people parked their cars on the side of the street. This is directed by Sophia. Zhen Fan was a little unaccustomed to parking on the streets with parking spaces in China and the United States. But looking at some vehicles parked on the side of the street, he was relieved. But Sophia smiled and said to Zhen Fan: "But you'd better listen to me when parking. See, there are only white dotted lines, no letters, no metal shelves. There is no trailer sign. This is a free parking space, so you You can park at will. But be careful, this kind of parking space is usually on the side of the road. You have to pay attention to this.” She jumped out of the car and folded the mirror, “This is a good habit, you must develop it, if If you don't want to be scratched."
"Okay, you are the master here." Zhen Fan also got out of the car. Shrugging his shoulders, he followed Sophia, "We want to eat the food here, where can we go?"
"There's no need to deliberately look for a place. There are delicious food everywhere, follow me, the shop here is good!" Sophia shook her head at Zhen Fan, and then pointed to the shop on the left front. So a group of people followed. The waiter was a little lazy, but with indescribable elegance, let Zhen Fan and his party in and chose a seat by the window.
"The wine of Orleans is very good, with a refreshing taste and fruity aroma. So...the position in French wine is not low, but if you drink this kind of wine, if you don't have some pork chops, then it's really a pity .Because that is the best food to accompany the meal.” Sophia is indeed an expert, as if she knows everything here.
"A bottle of wine, bring me a pork chop, I want the best vinegar and mustard here, hand-ground. What do you want?" Sophia finished ordering, then looked at Zhen Fan and the other three with a smile, and shrugged Shoulder.
"Okay, give me the same as hers. Pork chops with vinegar and mustard, and... what is the most unique thing here? I mean the food." Zhen Fan blinked at the waitress , this waitress is a bit fat, but she looks smiling and sweet.
"May I recommend Orleans papaya sauce to you? This is the best food here." The waitress said to Zhen Fan, "And the taste is very authentic. The papaya sauce in our shop is the best in Orleans. They all have excellent taste, would you like some?"
"Of course, I've heard of it a long time ago. Bring me some papaya sauce. I like that stuff!" Zhen Fan said quickly, "It's just that what should this papaya sauce taste good with?"
"I can recommend Orleans barbecue to you, which is also a very good local delicacy." The waitress said to Zhen Fan, "But you have already ordered pork chops, do you still need barbecue?"
"Of course, I need it. You don't know, my appetite is actually very good." Zhen Fan rubbed his belly and smiled at her, "That's it, I want these. Delicious pork chops, barbecue and papaya sauce, Of course, you also need to add your special condiments mustard and vinegar. Is that right?" He smiled at Sophia.
"These are the most delicious things here, but... you'd better be prepared, the mustard here is not so easy to deal with." Sophia smiled, "As a person who is used to mustard, I actually don't recommend it to foreigners. I also eat the wasabi here. You know, all of them are hand-ground, without the use of industrial methods, and a lot of the taste has been removed, so it is not authentic, are you sure you want it?"
"Of course, why not?" Zhen Fan shrugged his shoulders, then looked at the waitress, and couldn't help being stunned, "I didn't expect you to be able to speak English, I thought I was sitting in an American restaurant. "
"Sir, you are very humorous!" The waitress was amused by Zhen Fan, and then she looked at Bit and Johnny, "What do you need? Do you want to be like this gentleman?" She thought it might be the first time for these two people I came to Orleans, so I didn't know what to order, so I just followed Zhen Fan's list.
"Isn't it okay?" Beetle snorted at the waitress, and honestly, that's what he meant to say. So when the waitress said it, he felt a little embarrassed, but that was all he could do, "Take two as he ordered." He looked at Johnny, who nodded gratefully at him. As expected, these two guys were like this, covering up their embarrassment.
But Sophia is right. The pork chops here are paired with cool wine and fruity aroma, which well conceals the fishy smell of the pork chops. And let the moment of entrance, become soft with a certain degree of crispness. The grilled meat smeared with mustard, although it stimulates the taste buds, once the stimulation is over, it will have a long aftertaste. It seems that this is really the most delicious food in Orleans.
Although they ordered two items, Zhen Fan and the other three still cleaned up the plates. Amidst Sophia's chuckle, Zhen Fan greeted the fat waitress to check out and gave her a tip of 30 euros, which made the waitress a little surprised. A tip of 30 euros was indeed quite a lot.
After coming out, Sophia said to Zhen Fan: "Give me the car keys, I'll drive." She waved to Zhen Fan and shook her head. Zhen Fan froze for a moment, but still threw the car keys over. Sophia took it and said to them: "You are all drunk, it is best not to drive."
Sophia didn't drink just now, mainly to let Zhen Fan and the three of them taste the delicious Orleans specialties. Sophia, who got the car keys, didn't immediately walk towards the parking place, but walked towards a small grocery store. When she came out, she was carrying several bottles of mineral water and some snacks.
"Didn't it be agreed that we won't eat these things?" Bit looked at Sophia in surprise, and couldn't help touching his belly. Because he was afraid of wasting the bread, he ate several. He couldn't bear the temptation of delicious food just now, so he ate a pork chop and a barbecue, so his stomach was already a little swollen.
"We won't stop on the way. We'll go directly to Bordeaux. Because I drank wine, I bought a few bottles of water. I hope you can use them on the way!" Sophia looked at the bitter-faced Bit, and couldn't help but Laughing, "But... don't worry, because of the red wine, the food will be digested faster."
"Well, I'm really looking forward to the trip to Bordeaux!" Bit nodded. This time Zhen Fan sat in the co-pilot's seat, while Bit and Johnny still sat in the back of the car. Because I drank some wine, I fell asleep as soon as I got in the car. (~^~)
