Chapter 707: The Hospitality of the Wine Steward
The wine steward listened to their conversation, smiled, and when he began to divide the wine, he still followed Wu Yong's requirements, and there was only one sip in each small cup.
The masters took the wine glass one by one, poured it into their mouths, the taste was mellow, the wine was fragrant for a long time, and when they swallowed it, they could still feel a gentle medicinal power spreading to the limbs.
Everyone was surprised and asked, "Is this still medicinal wine?"
The wine steward nodded: "There are indeed certain medicinal herbs added, all of which are gentle and nourishing, you can rest assured." ”
The medicinal wine that can be paid tribute to the official family is definitely reassuring in terms of safety, and everyone tastes the aroma of the wine, and their eyes are very hot when they stare at the wine jar.
Everyone: "Can we buy some and drink them slowly?"
The wine steward was a little embarrassed and said, "This wine is not much, so we can't sell it to you, so let's go and see other places." ”
Everyone nodded a little regretfully, watching the wine steward seal the wine jar again, very reluctant.
The wine steward walked in front of the masters again, took them to the other cellars, and gave them several kinds of wine in turn, all of which had their own characteristics, but the one that amazed them the most was the one they drank for the first time.
Wu Yong saw that they were already a little drunk, so he asked the wine steward directly: "Let them drink the wine here first, it's almost noon now, is there any place to eat here?"
The wine steward hurriedly said: "We hired a chef in the winery not long ago, so let's help me try his skills today!"
The winery is currently trying to transform, so that everyone here can eat here, and the wine steward still trusts the skills of the chef he hired, otherwise he would not dare to keep Wu and use them to eat.
Wu Yong glanced at the crowd, and they obviously didn't want to leave just like that, so he nodded and agreed to the wine steward's proposal: "Okay, you can arrange it, but let's give them some sobering soup before dinner." ”
The bartender nodded repeatedly, summoned a waiter, and told him to tell the chef to start moving, and he himself led them to the dining place.
The dining place prepared by the winery here is in a side courtyard, which can be seen to have been cleaned up, and the tables and chairs are all made of new wood, exuding a faint aroma of logs.
Some of the decorations here are basically related to wine, and there is a painting composed of wine glasses on the wall, and above their heads is a picture of drunken flowers, which looks like a famous artist.
Wu Yong observed and invited Master Tong to sit first, and they chose their favorite seats to sit.
After the wine steward saw that they were seated, he asked the waiter to serve them a decanting soup first, according to Wu Yong's request before.
The masters obediently scooped themselves and drank them, and then began to listen to the wine steward introduce their special dishes.
Since you are eating at a winery, the dishes here will inevitably have something to do with wine, such as one of the chef's specialties, sake lees fish, which selects the smallest fish among the fish sent every day, and then adds sake lees to cook together, so you can swallow even the thorns.
There are also some other big dishes, which are more or less seasoned with some sake.
Wu Yong listened to the introduction and asked a little worriedly: "Is this kind of vegetable wine a lot of content?
The wine steward hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the chef will strictly control the amount, and what you borrow is just a wine aroma." ”
Those things that can make people drunk will disperse during the cooking process, and the wine steward will give the menu sent by the waiter to Wu Yong and them, so that they can see if there is anything that cannot be eaten, and he will promptly inform the chef not to serve it.
Everyone looked through it carefully, these dishes were quite fresh, and each dish had a relevant ingredient list under its name, and after they circled the inedible ones, they handed them over to the wine steward.
The bartenders put together a single menu for the waiters to send to the chef.
When the waiter returned from delivering this thing, he brought tea and snacks to everyone, which the chef had just steamed.
These teas and snacks are made of materials that can relieve hangover, which is suitable for them to eat, Wu Yongben did not refuse, he poured a glass for Tong Daren first, and then brought a cup for himself, smelling so much wine in the winery, he also had a little wine.
The masters also obediently drank tea and ate snacks, and at the same time asked the wine steward if there was any wine that could be bought back, which could be given as a gift to the left-behind masters at that time.
The wine steward said, "Except for the wine I just said is insufficient, I can sell you a small jar of the rest." ”
beckoned the waiter to prepare a small jar for wine, and the wine steward explained to them the size of the small jar: "This kind of small jar is filled with the amount of eight taels, which is very suitable for giving away." ”
After listening to his explanation, Wu Yong didn't stop them, and said himself: "Prepare one for me too." "There are more people who love to drink in the mountains, and I have brought people out for so long, and I just used this thing to gag their mouths.
The bartender nodded and asked the waiter to add one.
After dealing with this matter, the waiters began to serve the food one after another, and they did not continue to speak, and prepared to eat.
With a bowl of steamed rice in everyone's hands, with these flavorful dishes, Wu filled his stomach very well.
The bartender asked them, "Is there anything that needs to be improved on the taste?"
The people did not hide it, but directly expressed their opinions, and the wine steward took a pen to write them down one by one, so that the chef could take them to ponder and better cater to the tastes of the guests.
Wu Yong proposed: "The types of vegetables need to be increased, even if you can't make a single dish, you can add them to these dishes." ”
The wine steward nodded, the chef also tried to add wine to cook vegetables at the beginning, but he himself felt that the taste was average, so he didn't serve it today, Wu Yong's point of view should give him some inspiration to develop new dishes.
This meal can be regarded as a joy for the guests and hosts, and when Wu Yong asked for the meal, the wine steward refused again and again: "You have also helped a lot today, how can I be embarrassed to accept your silver, just give me the wine money." ”
The waiter had already brought the divided wine and put it in a small rattan box for them to carry away.
Wu Yong found that he couldn't convince the wine steward, so he could only give the wine money, and secretly planned to go back later to recommend the winery to the people who remained on the mountain, which could be regarded as a hospitality in return to the wine steward.
Carrying a small rattan box, Wu Yong used them to discuss the arrangements for the afternoon while walking out: "Is there anything else you want to go to next?"
They are now relatively well-fed, and it would be nice to take a walk and go back.
