Facts have proved that you cannot reason with a menopausal old woman. These gossips are born to be rich and leisurely. To put it bluntly, they are suffering from overeating. Once there is a little fresh excitement in life, it is enough. Let their gray life be dyed with a touch of bright color.
Xiao Letian's banquet today was all about novelty, with oriental elements throughout. Even before the banquet started, the refreshments had already amazed these Europeans who had never experienced the world.
Xiao Letian was engaged in business negotiation in his previous life. He had in-depth research on psychology. Every detail of the entire banquet was filled with his sweat.
Why serve sour plum soup and Chinese herbal tea? That's because he had studied the eating habits of Europeans and the weather conditions at that time.
The UK has been unusually hot these days, which makes the British accustomed to the ocean monsoon climate very uncomfortable. At this time, a bowl of cold sour plum soup is appetizing and relieves the heat, which can definitely satisfy the needs of the guests.
Traditional Chinese herbal tea is a miracle. Europeans, especially the upper class, eat too much meat and protein, and their intake of vegetables and fruits is relatively small. This is the body that is most likely to get angry according to traditional Chinese medicine, so Huang The evil doctor prescribed some herbal teas that are common in Fujian and Yue areas, which are most suitable for the disease.
The devil is in the details! No one's success can be separated from perfect details. This banquet has firmly captured the hearts of the guests from the beginning.
The surprise was far more than that. When the Soviet-style pastry chef Xiao Letian paid a lot of money to serve a pre-dinner snack that was like a work of art, the group of European bumpkins suddenly exclaimed.
In this era, the most exquisite European food is French food, but even the top French chefs would have difficulty making such exquisite Soviet-style dim sum.
Jade belt cake, sesame oil cake, cloud cake, rose moon cake, crispy candies, crystal dumplings... There are twenty-two kinds of cakes that Linglang is satisfied with. These Su-style snacks are all the best among the best, let’s not talk about the taste. , just looking at the appearance is already jaw-dropping.
The dragons and phoenixes pressed out of the dragon and phoenix cakes are flying in groups. The pine nut cakes shaped into the shape of little rabbits are hard to bear to touch. The goldfish on the noodles are even more vivid, as if they are swimming on the plate. Same.
Not only that, these plates are all professionally made. The plate with dragon and phoenix cakes is covered with auspicious clouds, and the plate with goldfish is covered with pebbles and water plants from the bottom of the water.
A dish is a scene, and every plate is a beautiful and exquisite painting.
Everyone couldn't believe their eyes. They asked the surrounding waiters and the oriental maids over and over again, "What are these? Are they carved works of art? Are they placed here for us to appreciate?"
"No, dear Earl and Madam, these are edible snacks. There is still some time before the banquet starts. You can try these exquisite oriental snacks!"
"It's really delicious! God, they say French cuisine is the most exquisite cuisine, but compared with these oriental delicacies, it's just garbage!" The countess picked up the fork and carefully cut off a piece of jade belt cake and put it in her mouth .
"Oh..." the lady exclaimed, and then her expression turned into one of intoxication. The food culture of Jiangnan in China began to develop in the Tang Dynasty. After a long period of prosperity during the Northern and Southern Song Dynasties and the Ming and Qing Dynasties, coupled with the addition of countless wealthy businessmen and literati, The pursuit of poets has matured to an extreme.
The smooth and fragrant taste makes every taste bud on the tongue seem to explode. The happiness brought by the food is unimaginable. The menopausal countess even feels like she has returned to her first love.
This is not an exaggeration at all. In his previous life, Xiao Letian once read a study done by some boring scientists, which said that when humans taste chocolate and various sweets, an enzyme metabolized by the brain is the moment when the feeling of love comes. kind.
So it makes sense that humans like chocolate and sweets. This substance can indeed bring people a unique sense of happiness.
The countess's expression caught the attention of everyone present, and people began to taste these oriental delicacies. In less than three minutes, there were countless fans of the Soviet-style dim sum.
"Oh God! Who told me that French food is the top cuisine in the world? That's nonsense. In front of Chinese food, it's all rubbish!"
This sentence happened to be heard by Montauban, the French envoy who had just entered the scene. The Duke of Baliqiao was so angry that his nose was hung up.
"What? Who dares to attack the great French cuisine! These vulgar Oriental... huh?" Just when Montauban was about to attack the vulgar Oriental food, his eyes happened to glance at the plate of snow-skin mooncakes in front of him.
This is a plate of snow-skin mooncakes shaped like roses. The red petals exude a unique luster like jelly. Through the light, you can faintly see the filling inside, which is as golden as the stamens.
This is a snow-skin mooncake in a completely realistic style. Faced with such a delicate snack that looks like a work of art, Montauban really can’t say the curse words behind him.
"Hmm... um... um..." After saying yes three times, he took out a stool and sat on it and said angrily, "Something that looks good must not taste good!"
"Yes, I agree with your point of view!" As he spoke, the unlucky envoy Ivan also sat next to him.
Not far away, Jonast smiled mischievously, "Really? I hope that after you try it, you can still say such things against your will... But I suggest that you drink a cup of herbal tea before you do it. Are you angry?"
"I find that the Eastern Chinese medicine is really interesting. He actually uses fire energy to represent the psychological state of some people. It's really vivid. Some people may be born with a steam boiler in their stomach. If they don't have fighting energy for a day, their stomach may become angry. explode!"
Hahaha... All the distinguished guests present laughed. It was really a pleasure to watch the Prussians and the French bickering.
Montauban was holding the Chinese herbal tea brought by the waiter. He looked at Jonas with a cold look and sneered, "When did the proud Prussians become the bastards of the Chinese? Praise them well and let Xiao Letian reward them later." How many of your meaty bones..."
As he spoke, Montauban drank up the herbal tea in the bowl with great resentment.
Jonas didn't argue with him, he just looked at him with a smile, watching Montauban's expression gradually become weird.
"Oh God! What the hell... ghost thing is this?" Montauban was not used to the weird smell of Chinese medicine. He wanted to utter curse words on the spot, but before he could finish the words, he only felt a cool and refreshing cold line running down his throat. Pressed down directly.
At that moment, he felt a sense of coolness that he had never experienced before, and all the anger in his stomach disappeared at that moment!
