Chapter 7 A New Beginning

Mr. Hu carefully wrote down all his opinions with a pen. This is the experience summarized over the years. No matter what the guest said, his attitude is the most important.

After serving in the Presidential Suite for so many years, there are many customers who know how to eat. Regardless of whether it is right or not, they will write it down first and feed it to the kitchen according to the procedure, and they will be considered completing the task by themselves.

Johnson Johnson didn't care about others and was really hungry, not to mention that they were all expensive ingredients, and they were served with rice, and feasted and then had enough.

I quickly eliminated the two dishes and was still unsatisfied, especially when the abalone sauce was poured onto the authentic Wuchang rice, the taste...

The third dish is fried Shuangfeng, which is light and delicious, just to relieve greasiness. It is paired with Cantonese white porridge, which is soft, glutinous, fragrant and smooth, and has a warm stomach and is very comfortable.

"Qingtang Matsutake mushrooms can nourish the spleen and stomach, strengthen the body, you can try it."

Butler Hu brought the soup, took out paper and pen, and waited for Johnson to comment. The waiter filled a bowl and delivered it to him. Johnson scooped up a spoonful, drank it, and was in the mountains and fields, with a bamboo forest in the valley, lush everywhere.

A small pine mushroom broke out from the ground, and the white body was full of hope for life. It poked its head little by little, looking at the new world curiously.

A farm girl came from the mountain, innocent and innocent, and happily traveling through the bamboo forest. She hummed a folk song in her mouth, squatted down from time to time, carefully digging out the pine mushrooms and spring bamboo shoots, and putting them into the bamboo basket behind her.

A breeze blew, and the fragrance of all kinds of plants and trees came to your nose, the shyness of the grass... the straightness of bamboo leaves... the elegance of rosin...

Everything is integrated into the fragrance of the earth. Mother Earth opens her arms and nurtures life. All things work together. I can observe and restore it.

Satisfied: "No, wild Shangri-La pineapple, made with fresh crucian carp soup, the original flavor complements each other."

"Especially for the treatment method, marinate in salt water, then blanch in boiling water, and it seems that the stalk leaves and pomelo should be added to the skin..."

Johnson Drinks another spoonful and savored it carefully. Sure enough, there is something else. No matter how fresh the matsutake mushroom is, it will inevitably have a rustic smell. How to maximize the natural freshness is the key to the test of the chef.

The more top-notch the ingredients, the simpler and cleaner the cooking technique. It doesn’t mean that you can just cook water, so what else does the chef do?

A true master is to do subtraction, remove false and retain the truth, take the essence and remove the dross, and fully explore the beauty of the ingredients.

Johnson is the most satisfied with this dish. It is very appropriate in both the heat and handling. It is worthy of being the chef's level and is interesting.

Now that the incident has been confirmed, Mr. Hu has confirmed the identity of Johnson's foodie, and the heartfelt touching on his face is not something that ordinary people can understand. Unfortunately, the chef is not present, so he must give feedback when he returns and further improve.

Johnson put down his chopsticks and wiped his hands with a wet towel, feeling satisfied. As a dinner, he was already very healthy and rich. The State Guesthouses were all powerful and old, and they were mainly light and healthy. They were skilled in the details.

When ordinary people meet delicious food, there are only two words: delicious.

At most, add a few sentences: Why is it delicious...How to make it delicious...

People who truly understand the knowledge will understand the good intentions. For chefs, works are also works of art, and meeting intellectuals is the most valuable.

Gourmets are such a group of people!

Gourmets are not necessarily good chefs, but truly top chefs must have the talent of gourmets, and only by understanding the ingredients and craftsmanship can they go further and further.

I took the bill and had a meal of more than 6,000 yuan, which was good, but it was definitely not cheap. Johnson returned to the suite and lay on a fully automatic massage chair, relaxing and recalling today when he witnessed the miracle.

A burst of fatigue surged up, fell on the double bed, and fell into a deep sleep. The last thought in my mind, hoping that everything was not a dream.

"Where am I?"

Johnson slowly opened his eyes. It was already noon. Looking at the ceiling, he felt like he was a different world. He got up, inspected the surroundings of the suite, breathed a sigh of relief, muttering to himself: "Fortunately it's not a dream!"

Open the curtains, scatter the sun, take a deep breath of fresh air, the eyes are lush, and the chirping of birds sounds in your ears, which makes you feel refreshed.

After washing up, I packed up my shopping bags, went out to buy a box today, changed the clothes and handed it over to the waiter, and someone was responsible for cleaning it.

"Mr. Zhuang, did you have a good rest yesterday?"

Butler Hu was already standing at the door. Seeing Johnson going out, he accompanied him downstairs and asked, "Where are you going to eat breakfast?"

Johnson waved his hand, looking at his watch at about nine o'clock, and refused, "I ate too much last night and didn't want to go around."

"Do you need to call a shuttle?" Mr. Hu smiled and said, "In fact, walking is good. Our State Guesthouse has many beautiful scenery, which can be said to be changing the scenery, and it has a unique world."

Johnson Johnson laughed and walked on the second day after changing his destiny. The two left the VIP building, and Mr. Hu led him to visit the Royal Garden.

The two of them came to the lake and walked along the way. They saw blue waves rippling, lotus flowers blooming, and the breeze blew, which was so beautiful.

"The central lake was originally called Yuyao Pond. As early as 800 years ago, the Jin Dynasty was a recreational resort with weeping willows and mountains covered with dark air and peach blossoms and flowing water and setting sun."

Mr. Hu followed Johnson Chan and said as much as he knew: "Because the lake here is endless all seasons, surrounded by willow embankments and beautiful scenery, it has become a good place for the royal family of the Jin Dynasty and the powerful people of the court to go out for the spring garden."

"It is said that Jin Zhangzong Wanyan Jing likes fishing here and specializes in building platforms, so there is a saying about the Royal Diaoyutai."

"In the Qing Dynasty, two generations of emperors after Qianlong had to go from the Old Summer Palace to the Temple of Heaven for sacrifice, or leave the Forbidden City to go to the Xiling Mountain to pay tribute, they would have to have a meal here."

"Look there, in order to create a unique garden building, we artificially planted 40,000 flowers and trees, 300 pine trees, and hundreds of cherries."

"There are also flowers such as magnolia, peony, and violet. The designer also introduced the lake water of Yuyuantan to form artificial lakes everywhere, with birds singing and flowers singing everywhere."

Mr. Hu pointed his hand away and smiled and said, "According to our internal name, you like to use the name of the flower. The Building No. 6 you live in is Baiyunlan, Building No. 5 is Tulip, and Building No. 15 is Xifu Haitang."

The two of them chatted and walked, but there were basically no one else. After so many days in Beijing, Johnson felt that the air was so fresh and everywhere. No wonder the leader lingered.

"I still remember that in December 1999, the Chairman met with Yeltsin, who visited China as president for the last time at the State Guesthouse. The two of them also took a walk in the garden together, leaving behind many rare and relaxing scenes."

Mr. Hu rarely said emotionally: "From the outing resort in the Jin Dynasty, the royal palace in the Qing Dynasty, to the important place for national foreign affairs activities, Diaoyutai has gone through eight hundred years of glory in the historical changes."

"Just like a special symbol in the capital, solemn and mysterious. Even if many people have never come in, they have become an indispensable part of their memory."
