Hayato Minakami likes to eat with Nao Fujiwara very much because watching the eldest lady eat is so enjoyable.
This is not only because of her appearance and figure, but also because she can maintain an elegant manner no matter what her mood is. Whether it is a Western-style knife and fork or a tachyon, she can use it with ease.
Looking closely, it is not only the movements of eating that are elegant, but also the slight opening of the lips, which seems to have been carefully considered. Even if Hayato Mizuchi is staring closely at him, he can't see any gaffes. angle.
Fujiwara Nao finished another dish with graceful and speedy movements, wiped her mouth with a white napkin, and asked: "Why don't you eat? The next dish is about to be served, and you don't eat at all. Sorry."
The water falcon didn't care about his manners and smiled: "That's it. How about you help me eat it?"
Fujiwara Nao rolled her eyes at him: "I don't want it!"
Minato Hayato was just talking. When eating Chinese food before, he had served the eldest lady some food, but she would never agree to this kind of find dining occasion.
"By the way, you said before that the new movie "Rurouni Kenshin 2" will not be made. Are you ready for the new script?" While waiting for the next dish, Fujiwara Nao and Minakami Hayato chatted about work.
"I have some general ideas, and I am currently torn between two stories." Hayato Mizuna said: "Do you prefer blockbusters that blow up the Rainbow Bridge or zombie movies?"
"Tell us everything," she said.
"As for the first story, I am a news anchor and received threatening phone calls during the live broadcast..."
While eating delicious food and talking about things, time passed quickly.
"How was the food tonight?" After the last dessert was over, Chef Renault came to their table in person and asked.
"It's great." Nao Fujiwara smiled: "It's a novel experience to use local ingredients from Sakurasu to make the most Nordic-style food."
"Yes, our eldest lady is still worried about what to do if we can't eat in the future." Minakami Hayato said.
Chef Renault gave Minakami Hayato a strange look, seemed to think about it, and smiled: "It doesn't matter, Miss Fujiwara will definitely be able to eat it in the future, maybe it won't take too long."
Fujiwara Nao looked at the kitchen: "Do you mean the chef who is coming to Tokyo to open a restaurant?"
"Ah, that's right." Chef Renault seemed to have just thought of this: "I'll ask Thomas to come over and say hello. When he comes to Tokyo, I'll ask you to take care of him."
Who says Westerners don’t understand the world? Even though Noma has become the best in the world, Chef Renault still understands how much a person with sufficient local status like Fujiwara Nao can bring to a newly opened restaurant. of assistance.
The eldest lady has no resistance to this request at all. She loves delicious food and wishes she could have more top restaurants in Tokyo.
So when the sous chef Thomas came to say hello, Nao Fujiwara's attitude was very good.
If he hadn't said that after opening the store, he would borrow Minakami Hayato's creativity and use Gaku's cuisine in the drama as a reference for his new dishes.
The good mood that the eldest lady had originally restored with a set of Nordic delicacies was brought back to the original point because of such a sentence. As a result, Minazinakura Hayato suffered from the continuous eye attack from the eldest lady.
"What about the movie..."
At the end, he tried to use work to change the subject.
The eldest lady just glanced at him, imitated the actions he had done, stretched out a small white jade hand, and held it with five slender fingers:
"I want them all!"
"Both stories are compiled into outlines and handed over to me. I will send them to the screenwriting team for improvement. We will shoot both and you will direct them."
"Anyway, the first story is basically your one-man show, and it's indoors. It should be easy to shoot and won't take too much time. Let's shoot the two parts together!"
Mizuna Hayato felt that it was unexpected and reasonable to receive such an answer. Both stories were copied from Han Country movies that he had seen in his previous life. They were both wonderful. He should have thought of it a long time ago, since he liked both stories. Well, how could the eldest lady not like it?
His original intention was to choose a film to be filmed later this year and continue filming "Rurouni Kenshin 2" next year. However, seeing what the lady wanted, he had to change his mind.
...
Tokyo is a city of gourmet food. Since Michelin entered Tokyo, more and more high-end restaurants have become known to people, not to mention the B-level cuisine and traditional cuisine hidden in the streets.
Needless to say, top actors like Kimura Takuya and Hirosue Ryoko, even supporting actors, have the experience of enjoying delicious food in high-end restaurants.
But Noma’s reputation is at its peak, and it’s still far away in Denmark. Being able to invite such a team to cook for them is a rare experience for anyone.
They gained a lot from this dinner. Not only did they eat delicious food, but they also got to watch the team of top chefs working together in the kitchen at a close distance, which was worth a thousand dollars.
Especially Kimura Takuya, he has many years of experience in cooking in "SMAP X SMAP". He is considered an insider and can see more things.
The actors later looked more professional in the shots of the kitchen. Even Nainao, after observing the eldest lady, integrated more elegance into her aura. The final scene of eating food was worthy of Called perfect.
Soon, the filming of "Tokyo Grand Hotel" entered the final stage.
The last scene, which is more difficult and particularly important, is the scene where the final Michelin ranking is announced.
What needs to be mentioned in advance here is that before filming this drama, they had discussed cooperation with Michelin in the early preparations. In the last section of the list, they received official help from Michelin and specially sent genuine Michelin tire man costumes.
Another decision that is both a collaboration and an Easter egg is Michelin’s official decision to announce this year’s list at the same venue and in the same way where the show was filmed.
Announcement of the list on the spot means that a huge venue is needed, where teams from various restaurants gather. Even if it is a group performance, it requires the scheduling of a large number of people, so the crew has been preparing for this scene for a long time.
Another interesting point is that in the original version of "Tokyo Grand Hotel", this section used a combination of filming and real video. While playing the plot they filmed, they also edited the real video released by the Michelin list to achieve a kind of Real effect.
But at this point in time, Michelin has not announced the list in this way, and there is no video at all.
So Minato Hayato decided, or mainly relied on the strength of the eldest lady, to invite Kishida Wednesday and other familiar Michelin restaurant chefs to come and make a few guest appearances.
In this comparison, it seems to be much more luxurious than the original version.
