"No name?"

"This ......"

Wang Peng looked at Xue Zhebin and found that Xue Zhebin was also like a waiter, smiling but not speaking.

Wang Peng had a feeling of being despised, as if he was a dirt bun who had never seen the world.

"No, how can you register a store without a name? Or is it a ploy to deliberately not tell customers the name of your store? ”

Wang Peng felt frustrated today.

As the co-founder of All People's Reviews, he has been to many restaurants and seen many restaurants with different characteristics.

But it's rare to see something as bizarre as today.

Generally speaking, even some very low-key private chefs will most of them have names, such as directly using the house number as the name of the restaurant, what is the name of kitchen No. 45, restaurant No. 78 and so on.

After all, no matter how low-key it is, it must have a name, otherwise everyone will not know how to describe this restaurant when they want to come to dinner, and it will be too delayed.

Moreover, the absence of a name is not conducive to word of mouth and popularity among diners.

Unless the owner of the restaurant doesn't care about popularity at all, or is extremely confident in his restaurant, it's impossible to play like this.

Xue Zhebin felt very comfortable when he saw Wang Peng's confused eyes, and an inexplicable sense of superiority arose.

"Don't think about it, eat it quickly, the dishes will be cold in a while." Xue Zhebin urged.

Wang Peng nodded, put these things behind him for the time being, and took out his mobile phone to take pictures.

The waiter just wanted to open his mouth to remind, but Xue Zhebin spoke first.

He pointed to the number plate next to the dining table: "No pictures." ”

Wang Peng: "? ”

This shop is not very big, but there are a lot of rules!

Wang Peng has also heard that some restaurants are not allowed to take pictures, but this is a rare case, and it is mainly abroad.

In China, if a restaurant doesn't let customers take pictures, it must be very inhumane. Domestic customers taking pictures before eating are about to become a sense of ritual, if you don't let the photo be taken, then how can you send out to pretend to be forced?

Spending so much money on a meal but not being able to pretend to be forced, what's the difference between that and never being to this restaurant?

Of course, rules like "don't take pictures" are certainly not mandatory, you have to take out your phone to take pictures, and the waiter can't smash your phone.

They would just come over and remind you very politely, if you have to shoot, you can't help it.

But the waiter came over and reminded him "please don't take pictures", which has greatly affected the dining experience of customers, and most restaurants will not do such a stupid thing.

What's more, customers can take a few beautiful photos of the food to share, which can attract more customers, which is equivalent to advertising the restaurant for free, so why not?

So, from any point of view, it's very strange that restaurants don't allow them to take pictures.

Wang Peng was confused: "What does this mean?" These dishes are so well done, aren't they blind if you don't let you take pictures? ”

He looked at the dishes in front of him, all of them were full of color, flavor and flavor, and he couldn't take pictures and tell others that he had eaten these dishes, so he felt a blood loss.

The smile on Xue Zhebin's face became more and more intense, and Wang Peng's confusion made him feel an inexplicable sense of superiority, so he explained for the waiter.

"That's the beauty of this store."

"The owner of the shop thinks that taking pictures will distract from enjoying the food."

"If all you think about is how to find a good angle and a good light, you can't concentrate on enjoying the aroma, the taste and the carefully crafted details."

"By putting down your phone, you can better focus on enjoying the state of communicating with friends, enjoying good food and completely relaxing."

"So, let's follow the local customs today, knowing that you are busy with work, but the time for a meal can't delay anything, put away your mobile phone."

Wang Peng still felt a pity, but Xue Zhebin had already spoken, and it was very annoying to forcibly take pictures with his mobile phone, so he still put away his mobile phone and began to enjoy the food.

Tomahawk steak, matsutake mushroom, caviar...... It's not cheap, and this meal will cost more than 10,000 yuan.

And Xue Zhebin didn't order the most expensive dish here, because he wasn't sure if the ingredients that needed to be reserved were real or fake.

Wang Peng tasted them one by one and savored them carefully.

"Sure enough, it's really not an ordinary ingredient."

As a senior executive of a review website, Wang Peng has also tasted a lot of food, after all, this is also part of his job.

Whether a dish is delicious or not depends first on the ingredients, then on the chef's cooking skills, and finally on the environment, atmosphere and mood of the diners.

Good ingredients are the most important prerequisite for this.

Wang Peng can feel it after tasting a little bit, these ingredients are absolutely genuine!

Of course, it cannot be called the top ingredients, because many precious ingredients from abroad are not for sale in the place of origin, and the production is limited, and can only be supplied to a small part of the nearby area, and cannot be shipped to China at all.

But it is clear that the ingredients used in this nameless restaurant are already some of the best available in the country.

Xue Zhebin observed Wang Peng's expression: "How does it taste?" ”

As a rich second generation, Xue Zhebin has indeed eaten a lot of good things, and he also has a good ability to distinguish the quality of some dishes, but after all, he is not a professional, and there is still a bit of a gap with Wang Peng.

Wang Peng nodded with satisfaction: "Very good." I even felt like it was even better than what I had eaten before. ”

"For example, 30% of the world's caviar production comes from our country, and 21 of the 26 three-Michelin-starred restaurants in Paris use our country's top caviar."

"The farmed caviar in our country is completely comparable to wild caviar."

"I've also been to some restaurants in the imperial capital and the magic capital, and the ingredients used should be the same."

"But I don't know why, but I always feel that the caviar here is more delicious."

"Could it be because of the psychological effects of the tableware and the environment?"

Xue Zhebin thought of the changes in the layout of the private room, and said: "Speaking of which, this private room has obviously been rearranged today, from the decoration to the table and tableware, all of which are very different from the last time I came. ”

He looked at the waiter next to him: "Why are you replacing these things?" ”

The waiter smiled and replied, "Because our boss believes that the environment is also a key part of the dining experience." ”

"Just like the literati in ancient times drank wine, different wines had to be drunk in different wine glasses, and there were many complicated and cumbersome steps, which is not only a sense of ritual, but also because the right tableware can better show the special preparation of the wine and bring out this special atmosphere."

Wang Peng was speechless, and was silent for a moment before nodding: "Exquisite." ”

If he heard such a statement on other occasions, Wang Peng would definitely sneer and evaluate it in four words: bells and whistles.

Changing different interior decorations, tables and utensils for different foods is nothing more than a superficial article, and if the dishes are not delicious, these are all false.

But what if the ingredients themselves and the chef's craftsmanship have reached a very high level?

The ingredients used here are top-notch, and the chefs are all top-notch, so there is no disadvantage compared to other high-end restaurants, but there is no advantage.

At this time, what can leave a deep impression on the customer's mind may only be some small things.

For example, special dining environment, thoughtful service, suitable tableware and so on.

Coupled with the fact that photography is not allowed here, everyone will focus their full attention on the food, which invisibly creates a psychological hint of "it's really delicious".

In this way, two identical dishes will leave a different impression on diners!

"How much is this meal?" Wang Peng asked again.

Xue Zhebin smiled and said, "Ten thousand thirteen." ”

Wang Peng said with heartfelt emotion: "It's worth it." ”

……

……

Walking out of the door of Mingyun's private kitchen, Wang Peng still felt a little unfinished.

Although he was "slaughtered" by Xue Zhebin today and spent more than 10,000 treats, he still felt that it was too worth it.

If it weren't for Xue Zhebin's introduction, Wang Peng really didn't know that there was such a high-end restaurant in Jingzhou.

It's not just a matter of the food being delicious.

The location here is secluded and low-key, the environment is very high-grade, the service is also very considerate, and the regulations such as no photos are allowed, it seems to be very compelling.

This place is too suitable for business banquets.

Although the price is high, as long as the style goes up and the business partners can eat happily and feel valued, it is very cost-effective!

What's more, Wang Peng looked at the price of the dish on the receipt and found that the price was completely within the acceptable range.

Because high-end ingredients are inherently expensive, plus the labor costs of first-class chefs, venues, and changing table utensils......

This pricing is quite conscientious!

It's just that I didn't ask for the contact information of the owner of this restaurant, which made Wang Peng feel a little pity.

When checking out after the meal, a store manager surnamed Lin came over and asked the two of them very politely if they had any opinions and if the restaurant could be improved.

Wang Peng took the opportunity to ask for the contact information of the boss, hoping that this restaurant could become a cooperative merchant of National Reviews.

However, the store manager Lin politely refused.

Strictly speaking, it was not Manager Lin who refused, but Manager Lin refused on behalf of the boss behind the restaurant, and only gave his phone number to Wang Peng, but not to the boss.

In addition, on behalf of the boss, store manager Lin also politely declined the cooperation suggestion of the national review, and was not even willing to disclose the name of the store.

Wang Peng was not embarrassed to be reluctant, after all, judging from the location of this restaurant, early publicity and other aspects, the boss behind the scenes is indeed a low-key person, and he does not give contact information, but it is also in line with his style.

Therefore, Wang Peng just remembered the contact information of Manager Lin, so that when there is an important business banquet in the future, he can make an appointment in advance.

It's just a pity that I couldn't establish a cooperative relationship with this store on behalf of the national review.

But...... If you don't have a partnership, can't you show it on a review site?

Of course not.

Dianping has the function of "adding stores", and users can add business information by themselves.

It's just that the name of the store is mandatory, and you have to let the staff help you deal with it.

Wang Peng directly noted down the location here, and then called the technician: "There is a high-end restaurant in this place, take it on the website, and I will write a review myself later." ”

"There's no name, just leave it empty."
