Zhao Ning didn't really approve of the Michelin Guide's selection of Chinese food.
However, it still had some reference value for the selection of western food.
Lemelouz was a French restaurant.
It had a one-star rating on the Michelin tire guide.
Although the star-rating was not high, it was very close to the National Finance Center, less than three kilometers away.
They arrived in ten minutes by car.
Zhao Ning drove the Lamborghini to the Zhonghai Tower with Cai Yan.
He followed the elevator to the 68th floor.
As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, a waiter greeted them.
"Sir, Madam, how many of you are there?”
"Please give us a window seat.”Zhao Ning replied.
"Alright, please follow me."
After a while, the waiter brought Zhao Ning and Cai Yan to a seat by the window.
After they sat down, the waiter brought them two sets of menu.
He opened the menu.
Zhao Ning glanced at it casually.
There were many dishes on it.
French Baked Snails, Foie Gras Black Truffle, Caviar Mashed Potato, Duck Liver Lollipop, Black Forest Mousse, Fried Pigeon...
However, other than desserts, the other dishes looked like dark cuisine.
After hesitating for a while, he asked the waiter,"
"It's our first time eating here. Can you recommend me some of your specialties?“
The waiter smiled." Sir, if you don't know what to order, I recommend you to order our lunch set."”
"Our lunch set is divided into four types: 488, 888, 1288, and 2888.”
"Which one do you want?"
"Then give us two sets of 2888 yuan."”
Since he was here, there was no need to think about saving money.
Moreover, for him now, a 2888 yuan set meal was not expensive.
"Yes, sir."
With that, the waiter left.
At this moment, before the dishes were served, Zhao Ning took the opportunity to size up the environment.
Simple and natural!
It could be seen that this restaurant had put in a lot of effort in its renovation and design.
However, it was already noon, and there were not many people in the restaurant.
"Hubby, there are so few people here.”Cai Yan could not help but sigh.
Zhao Ning nodded and said in a low voice,
"It's normal. The dishes here are expensive and the portions are small. Other than couples or tourists, very few people will come here.”
Cai Yan chuckled and similarly lowered his voice. Raising his eyebrows, he said,
"Hubby, there's actually another kind of person who will come.”
"Who is it?"
"Fake socialite." Cai Yan said in a low voice.
After saying that, she cast her gaze at a table in the southeast corner of the restaurant.
Following her gaze, Zhao Ning also stole a glance.
As expected.
The four women sitting at the table in the southeast corner were a little unusual.
Firstly, they were all dressed very luxuriously.
Those who didn't know better would think that they weren't here for dinner but for a show.
Secondly, after the dishes were served, they didn't start eating like the others.
Instead, they were all posing coquettishly and taking selfies.
If it was just one person, it might be a tourist who liked to take selfies.
However, if all four of them were like this…
She was basically the legendary " fake socialite " of Zhonghai City.
Not long after, the dishes were served.
Zhao Ning and Cai Yan also withdrew their gazes and looked at the dishes in front of them.
Fake socialites and whatnot, they just needed to watch the show. As long as it didn't affect them, the two of them wouldn't meddle in other people's business.
At the dining table.
The waiter smiled and introduced,"Our Lemelouze 2888 set meal has a total of five dishes."”
"This is the first cold appetizer, seaweed caviar.”
In front of him were two exquisite bowls.
Not to mention whether it was delicious or not, at least the presentation was quite attractive.
It was just that the portion was a little small, only two mouthfuls.
"Honey, are they afraid that we'll be full?”Zhao Ning could not help but complain in a low voice.
Of course, his voice was so low that only the two of them could hear him.
"Haha, hubby, isn't Western food like this?" Cai Yan laughed. The plate is exquisite and the portion is small."
Then, the two of them tasted it.
It was smooth in the mouth and tasted a little salty when chewed.
The overall taste was only average.
"Honey, it's not delicious." Cai Yan said with a bitter face.
"It's indeed ordinary." Zhao Ning nodded.
Soon, the second soup was served.
Cream of mushroom soup.
It was also only enough for a small bowl.
After two or three mouthfuls, the soup was already in his stomach.
"Hubby, this is alright." Cai Yan smiled slightly.”
This soup was sweet and salty as a whole. It had a milky taste and was much more delicious than the previous dish.
Then, the third-generation hot appetizer was served.
French Baked Snails.
However, this appetizer didn't open their stomachs.
On the contrary, the two of them looked at the snails on the plate that were like soft mud and could not eat them.
"Hubby ~" Cai Yan pouted like a little kitten.
"Alright, alright, I'll taste it for you first." Zhao Ning smiled dotingly.”
Then, Zhao Ning used a special snail digging tool to dig out a whole piece of snail meat.
At first glance, it looked like they were eating river snails.
Compared to the snail meat, the snail meat was obviously more tender.
"Honey, the taste is not bad. You can try it too.”Zhao Ning said.
Finally, Cai Yan gritted his teeth and took a piece of snail meat to taste.
In the end, things got out of hand.
Soon, she finished all four snails on the plate.
"Hubby, hehe, it's indeed delicious.”Cai Yan said with a smile.
"After all, French Baked Snails are one of the three national treasures of France." Zhao Ning nodded.”
"If it wasn't delicious, they wouldn't have used it as a signboard.”
After the appetizer, it was time for the main course.
The main course was pan-fried sole.
At the same time, the waiter poured a glass of white wine for the two of them.
"Sir, madam, our French pan-fried sole is even more delicious with white wine.”
The way to eat French food was very complicated.
Unlike Chinese food, where one chopstick could do everything.
Zhao Ning and Cai Yan picked up their fish knives and harpoons and easily took a piece of meat from the pan-fried sole and put it into their mouths.
The first bite was crispy, and then it quickly melted in his mouth.
In an instant, the fragrance of butter and lemon juice burst out in his taste buds.
Zhao Ning and Cai Yan's eyes instantly lit up.
Compared to the previous three dishes, this French pan-fried sole was obviously more delicate and tasty.
However, the fried sole would be a little greasy after eating too much.
At this moment, he took a sip of white wine. It was simply a pleasure.
"Honey, this dish is delicious."
"It's indeed not bad."
In a short while, the two of them finished the pan-fried sole in front of them.
After eating, the waiter took the plates away.
After a while, the last dessert was served.
Nun Puffs.
The shape of the dessert was very exquisite. It was made of two puffs, small on the top and large on the bottom. There was also a circle of cream around it. At first glance, it did look a little like a nun's dress.
The two of them took a simple bite.
The fragrance of light cream and the crispness of the chocolate shell fused in his mouth.
It was simply an enjoyment for the taste buds.
After they finished eating and paid the bill, the two of them walked out of the Zhonghai Central Building.
Looking at the time, it was already past two in the afternoon.
In other words, the two of them only ate for two hours.
"French food is too troublesome to eat. Not only does it take a long time and the steps are complicated, but the portion is also small. After eating it for two hours, I feel like I haven't eaten at all.”
"It's not as enjoyable as our Chinese food.”
Cai Yan rubbed his small belly and could not help but complain.
Zhao Ning smiled and rubbed her hair."Honey, you're so cute. Alright, since you don't like it, we won't eat French food in the future.”
Then, the two of them drove back to Seaview No.1 in their Lamborghini.
