Chapter 166: A Chance Encounter in a Restaurant

The theme color palette of Chris's Manor Hotel is purple and white, which not only adds a sense of mystery but also reflects a low-key charm. The restaurant specializes in French cuisine, and unlike California's ban on foie gras, the noisy French restaurant is a bit substandard, and Montana doesn't have rules that make food lovers hate it.

The work of ordering, Li Han took it alone, flipped through the Chinese menu, it was really not a pleasure, the menu leather cover and logo are good, but unfortunately for French, Li Han didn't know much, just learned a little from Old Tom, Old Tom's ancestors came to France. After a cursory glance at the menu and wine list, Li Han asked his mother and Aunt Xu what they wanted to eat?

"Xiaohan, you can order as you like, you and Aunt Xu don't understand this. "Mom and Aunt Xu don't know much about Western food. Li Han ordered according to his mother and Aunt Xu's taste observed in the past few days, and Li Han asked the chef for tonight's recommendation.

Dudu and the baby love to eat snails and foie gras, Li Han ordered one for Dudu and the baby alone, himself and his mother, Aunt Xu ordered the chef's recommended menu, the price is not expensive, about one hundred and fifty dollars, Dudu and the baby are more expensive, and the bottle is not bad red wine to accompany the meal.

After a while, the waiter served a special side dish served by the chef. The chef's reception is divided into two parts, pursuing a combination of sweet and sour taste: the white spoon on the left contains a very popular molecular version of grape jelly, that is, the surface of the grape liquid is covered with an ultra-thin layer of transparent skin similar to jelly, and sprinkled with a number of chopped pistachios. The goat cheese coated with chopped pistachios tightly wraps the full grape juice inside, and when you bite into it, the first taste you feel is the sweet and sour aroma of goat cheese, followed by the sweet grape juice gushing out on the tip of the tongue, and finally bringing out the unique saltiness of pistachios.

Li Han didn't like it very much, grape and goat cheese, and handed it to Dudu and the baby. The two little ones love to eat, and they eat a spoon in one bite. "This guy is stingy, so little, but it tastes good. ”

Mom said to Aunt Xu, these two small dishes are packed with spoons, a little big, just a small snack before the meal, and the second course is entertained by the chef, Mom and Aunt Xu didn't eat it, mackerel sashimi and Western-style pudding. Li Han and Dudu ate separately, speaking of which is to try it, but this is a little uneatable, but the meal bag is good, especially the brioche brioche and Basil Brioche These two meal packs are delicious! Brioche is not only super beautiful in appearance, but also has a faint milky fragrance that can be compared to the Japanese Hokkaido fragrant, super delicate taste, Dudu and the baby like to eat. Li Han had to cheekily ask the waiter for bread several times! And Basil Brioche's Breo has a strong aroma of basil leaves, and it has a super fresh taste!

Not only did the two children like it, but my mother and Aunt Xu thought it was delicious and discussed going back to make it themselves. The appetizers are all shrimp, and the first dish of black truffle lobster pasta is really good, and the presentation is super delicate. Beautiful! The Italian meat sauce noodles with a sense of zài, the super-finely chopped lobster meat and the sauce are well combined, although the lobster meat is almost invisible. But the tip of the tongue is full of the sweet taste of lobster, and the sauce is not greasy at all! With the basil leaves decorated with Titian, the taste is super good! The most fragrant part is of course the foamy butter truffle sauce, which is not only beautiful in appearance, but also very fragrant, mixed with meat sauce noodles, the taste is wonderful! The noodles are very fresh and hair-thin Capellini, the noodles are tight, elastic and very chewy.

The appetizer is followed by three appetizers, including wild imperial salmon with crayfish sauce, mostly lobster and the like, and two main courses, tender veal, with asparagus morel mushrooms and nasturtium sauce with corn porridge and lamb chops, with artichokes, flaxseeds and green garlic. Dudu and baby snails and foie gras, the two little ones eat very deliciously, the taste is really good, good value for money, not worse than the average Michelin estimate.

But the two little ones love desserts, chocolate trios, chocolate soufflés, chocolate gelato + mousse combo and caramel chocolate tart. When the waiter brought out the dessert, there was a needle-like utensil filled with hot chocolate, and then the towering soufflé was injected with a needle to complete its historical mission.

Strawberry, another dish, dessert, not very appetizing.Dessert macarons are unexpectedly delicious, not too sweet, similar to Pasadena's famous Lette Macarons, not too sweet!!

Li Han put down the knife and fork and helped Dudu and the baby wipe their mouths, the two little guys. "Mom, Aunt Xu, do you need anything?" "No need, I'm quite full." Aunt Xu smiled and waved her hand, but her mother didn't say anything.

A few appetizers, although not much, but as many as four, mostly lobster, the taste is good, especially the meal bag tastes good, eat more, not too hungry. Li Han got up to settle the bill, which was not too much or too little, nearly fifteen hundred dollars. The overall feeling is that the freshness and innovation of the dishes are still very good, the taste of the dishes is also up to a relatively high level, there is a lack of amazing dishes, and the level of the meal package is completely unexpected, the dessert seems to be further improved, the level of service is also quite high, very thoughtful and friendly, the explanation of each dish is also professional in place, the decoration and atmosphere of the restaurant are generous and elegant, but not to the point of being amazing.

Li Han is quite satisfied, of course, I have to say, the price is not cheap, relatively speaking, Chris Manor, the taste is good, this price is said in the past, it takes 1,200 dollars to calculate the tip after discounting, Li Han finished settling the bill and was about to leave.

Suddenly, what a coincidence, Jennifer, Kroenke and a middle-aged woman walked into the restaurant and walked towards Li Han, and found that Li Han's Jennifer was also slightly surprised, but he didn't expect Li Han to come to Chris Manor Hotel to eat. Li Han smiled bitterly, rubbed his cheeks, pulled out a smile, stood up, and jumped off the chair, unable to move Li Han. Doodoo happily shouted to her mother and ran to Jennifer. "Mom. "Pandora?" Jennifer crouched down slightly, and threw herself into Jennifer's arms.

Li Han followed and greeted with a smile. "Mr. Kroenke, it is a pleasure to see you again, you beautiful and noble woman. Jennifer paused slightly, a little puzzled, and Kroenke introduced with a smile. "Good evening, Han, Anne, Jennifer, this is Han. Hank Farmer, it tastes good to brew Hank Manor, maybe, you can try it. ”

Anne Walton Kroenke, frowning slightly, felt a little familiar to her. "Good evening, Han. "Good evening, Jennifer. "Hello, Han. Jennifer didn't seem to react much. Continue to hold Dudu.

Kroenke didn't pay much attention to Dudu and Li Han chatted a few words, Li Han introduced his mother and Aunt Xu, baby. The baby will run to Jennifer and take Jennifer's other hand. "Mr. Kroenke. Without disturbing your meal, we will take our leave. ”

Li Han took Dudu and the baby and said hello, and Jennifer squatted down and kissed Dudu and the baby. "Goodbye Han. Li Han always felt that Jennifer's mother seemed to have discovered something. Looking at Dudu from time to time, maybe Dudu looks too much like Jennifer.

Jennifer didn't seem to have any intention of concealing it, but Li Han was a little entangled. Kroenke is not as ordinary as he sees on the surface, with a mustache, a very ordinary dress, and his speech does not give people a sense of superiority, but this man has relied on a pair of hands, and has built a huge family business for more than 30 years, a world-renowned sports tycoon, one of the top ten landowners in the United States, owns hundreds of shopping center shares, and has his own regional television station.

Li Han didn't dare to bet, if he came to Dudu's life experience, with legal means, Li Han really didn't have a good face when he walked past Jennifer, Jennifer whispered. "Han, I'll take care of this. "Thank you, feel free to call me when you need me. ”

Li Han nodded, he needed a good time, and when he returned home, Li Han came to the small bar, opened the door, and prepared a beer for the evening, while thinking about his advantages. Of course, one of Li Han's advantages lies in Dudu, of course, Li Han doesn't want Dudu to participate in this matter, as for net worth, at least Li Han can't afford to raise children, Guangguang's biggest disadvantage, the disadvantage of a single father, Dudu grows up, a single parent of the opposite sex, the judge will definitely consider this.

"Hi Han, what's wrong?"

Liu Ming smiled and patted Li Han on the shoulder, distracted. "Guests need a cup of orchid. "Oh, I'm sorry, please wait a minute. Li Han hurriedly filled a cup of Youlan and handed it to the guest. "I'm sorry to keep you waiting. ”

"Ming, when did you come here? Li Han poured a glass of beer and handed it to Liu Ming, poured a cup and asked while drinking. "Just now, you weren't in good spirits, were you worried about the new wine?" "No, the new wine is good, no problem. ”

Liu Ming frowned and asked. "The Chris family's affairs, maybe I can help you solve it. "Oh, the Chris family? hehe, it's okay, I think it's just a temporary problem, thank you. ”

Liu Ming took a sip of beer and knocked on the bar. "Oh, I think I understand, is it Jennifer's business?" Liu Ming looked at the empty small box, and Li Han nodded with a wry smile. "Sort of. "I can't help you with that, Han, Jennifer is a nice girl. ”

Li Han nodded, although Jennifer was a little proud, she was not bad at doing things, and she didn't have too much squeamishness. "Drinking, don't talk about this, the new wine should be released one day in advance, and the wine will be released tomorrow, so come over to evaluate and evaluate it together. ”

"A toast to make a good wine, of course. "Cheers. On the other side, at the farmer's house, Anne Walton came to the door of her daughter, Jennifer. "Jennifer, do you have time to talk?" Jennifer had just taken a shower and was lying on the bed reading a book, when she got up and opened the door to invite her mother in.

The two went to the couch to the side and sat down, and Jennifer poured a glass of water and handed it to Anne Walton. "Mom, do you want to talk about Pandora?" "Jennifer, Pandora, girl's name, what a good name. Anne Walton took a sip of water.

"Yes, Pandora is a smart and lovely kid. Jennifer said as she stood up, went to the bedside, opened the safe, pulled out a stack of papers, and handed it to Anne Walton. "This is a comparison of the three institutions. (To be continued......)
