Chapter 1113
Many people nodded, showing expressions of approval.
"This is the difference between a star-rated restaurant and an ordinary restaurant." Yang Ming said with a smile, "Actually, it is the so-called style, but it is enough for an excellent chef to be able to cook well. These things should be left to professionals. Do it well.”
Hearing this, everyone smiled knowingly.
Isn't this a mockery of the fact that Umbrella Mountain has no use at all except for cooking?
Umbrella Mountain also heard the implication, and said in his heart that you are talking nonsense, cooking is the foundation!
Yamamoto also completely disagrees with Yang Ming's point of view.
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Maybe some people don't agree, but I have to say that this is also a duty of a chef, how to make guests eat more relaxed, happy and enjoy more. Excellent cooking is a kind of art, and a meal Food is like a dance on the tip of the tongue. If the guests cannot indulge in it, then it means they are just eating 'rice', not a meal!"
Everyone was listening and thinking.
"So the matching of the environment is very important." Yang Ming looked at Umbrella Mountain and the two of them casually and said, "The environment includes many kinds. Let's talk about it briefly. For example, Erina and a big man were standing next to each other with dishes at the same time. The mood of the guests will definitely be different when I explain this dish.”
"Pfft" someone couldn't help laughing.
Erina was also amused. She had never seen this side of Yang Ming before.
Umbrella Mountain was so angry that his beard was twisted, but he couldn't refute.
"Okay, our guests have arrived." As Yang Ming spoke, a lady came in at the door. She looked like she was only about 20 years old, but she had a very mature temperament. She was wearing a dark brown tight-fitting hunting suit and light blond hair. Her hair was tied into a bunch hanging down her back, highlighting her fair and delicate complexion.
"Ms. Lan, I didn't expect you to be free today." The store manager immediately came over and greeted her warmly. This is a regular customer of the restaurant and an extremely picky customer.
Umbrella Mountain sneered when he saw this scene. He had a very deep understanding of this woman's difficulty. She also had a deep understanding of food. She was a pure gourmet and enjoyer. He was about to Let’s see how Yang Ming responds.
"The restaurant is dressed up today." Lan stopped slightly, "It's very delicious."
While she was talking, she sat down at her usual dining table and looked at the tableware on it curiously. Under the interweaving of sunlight and light, the exquisite patterns showed dreamlike colors, which made people wonder.
She covered her mouth slightly, "Did you invite the world's top designers? This lighting combination is really wonderful. I have never seen such a beautiful restaurant before."
The store manager pointed at Yang Ming with a smile on his face and said, "You guessed wrong, all this is the credit of classmate Yang Ming, no! It should be the credit of Chef Yang Ming, who cooked your food today."
Lan glanced at Yang Ming, her eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "Such a young chef? It's really rare. Although I don't believe it, a chef who can put on such a layout will definitely not disappoint me. ?"
The waiters around were also slightly surprised. They didn't expect that Lan, who usually had difficulty speaking, would be so happy today, and they had never seen such a smile before.
It's really amazing, it's just a simple change of layout.
"I won't let you down." Yang Ming looked at Lan carefully. This woman, no! This young woman should be around the same age, but she is very well-maintained. She is dressed in brand-name clothes. She seems to be a person who enjoys herself very much. And not surprisingly, she should be asking, "How about some pre-dinner tea first?"
"Tea? I prefer coffee." Lan raised her head gracefully and said.
"Don't worry, I won't let you down." Yang Ming returned to the kitchen counter with a smile. Erina stood aside and watched Yang Ming's every move. She said it was a kitchen counter, but it was actually a wine counter in the hall. It was specially used for drinking. Come and show your cooking skills to the chef.
Yang Ming found what he needed from the ingredients and carefully washed them. His mind was spinning rapidly. In just the moment of looking for the ingredients, he had already simulated several tea products that the other party would like, and then started to act smoothly.
The movements were elegant and beautiful, making Lan's eyes brighter and brighter.
But at this time, Umbrella Mountain also stood up, "If you don't mind, let me prepare a pre-dinner bar for you? How about just doing it as before?"
Lan blinked, "But hasn't Chef Yang Ming already prepared it for me?"
"How can tea be used as a pre-dinner drink?" Umbrella Mountain glanced at Yang Ming. .
Indeed, compared to tea, red wine pairing is more flavorful.
The waiter, store manager, and Erina next to me all thought so.
Yang Ming said calmly, "The so-called red wine, tea, or coffee are actually drinks for guests to enjoy. Therefore, there is no need to deliberately choose a drink, but which one is suitable for casual use." Which one?" He said easily to refute Umamayama's words, "As it stands now, tea is more suitable for appetizing than red wine, and it is also more suitable for guests to enjoy the next dishes with anticipation."
What? !
Tea is more suitable? How can such a light thing be compared with red wine!
Umbrella Mountain was angry at that time, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"How can it be better than red wine? Aren't you talking nonsense!" Yamamoto was also angry.
Erina and the store manager were also dumbfounded. They didn't believe this. After all, many things have been ingrained in their consciousness. Appetizer is an aperitif, and tea is usually afternoon tea or something like that!
Yang Ming said unhurriedly, "This is also a matter of habit. Many people in China taste tea before eating, and this tradition has been carried out for thousands of years. As for Umbrella Mountain's rebuttal." He looked at Umbrella Mountain, "I heard that you did it in a two-star restaurant? So I wonder if you know that some star-rated restaurants use juice for their appetizer drinks? Isn't that also a mistake?"
"It seems so!"
"Isn't it?!"
"And Chinese tea is indeed very popular as an appetizer, but not many people seem to be doing it now, right?"
Umbrella Mountain also replied, "Tea is already out of date, and Chinese food?! Ha." He snorted disdainfully, "I've never heard of a Chinese restaurant with three Michelin stars, at most It’s just a two-star restaurant, and it mainly serves Japanese cuisine.”
Yang Ming chuckled, "If you think that Chinese cuisine is not good, you are wrong." There are chefs who truly have master-level cooking skills in Chinese cuisine. Many of them are not chefs in restaurants, but in major venues and even state banquets. They don't know how to be chefs themselves. Even if they open a restaurant, they just leave it to their apprentices.
