Prosperous Jiangnan.
Christina stood at the fork in the road near Building 17. The property management had previously informed her that Building 17 would be built into a restaurant specializing in Western food.
Immediately afterwards, the villa began to be renovated.
The thumping noise of the renovation work let everyone in the entire park know that a Western restaurant was going to be built here.
Christina looked into Building 17 curiously.
There has been less activity on the renovation of this building recently and the renovation team has begun to leave.
There were also many porters carrying various tableware into the building.
Christina is French, and once she saw a long French food table being moved into this building.
Although this villa is a Western restaurant, Christina initially thought that it was just like all the Western restaurants in China, an ordinary Western restaurant that unified the dishes of various European countries into Western food.
Like an ordinary western restaurant, they only serve a few main dishes.
Pizza, burgers, French fries, steak, pasta, and even more exaggerated is salmon sashimi.
However, Christina has been in China for more than ten years and has gotten used to it.
In the Chinese people's perception, a foreign country is just a country, without any more detailed distinction.
In fact, the foreign country is not a whole at all, but consists of nearly a hundred countries.
They have different customs, different cultures, different eating habits, and different belief cultures.
Like Christina, she doesn't like eating hamburgers and drinking Coke, but prefers eating French baked snails with red wine.
She hasn't had it for several years and missed it terribly.
Now that the renovation of Building 17 is almost completed, she wants to go over and take a look.
Even when it comes to Western food, she rarely gets to eat its authentic flavor.
Although there are many Western restaurants in Shanghai, all of them have been modified to suit local tastes.
It's not Christina's taste. She hasn't gone out to eat Western food for a long time.
She didn't expect that such a Western restaurant would open in the park where she lived.
From the outside, it looks no different from other villas in the park.
The only difference is that the swimming pool here has been renovated into an aquarium, where many marine creatures are raised.
For example, black abalone, geoduck, Boston lobster, king crab, etc.
Christina continued to approach Building 17. There was a stone tablet at the door with the word "Lose" engraved on it.
Christina guessed that the "Lose" should be the store door.
She knocked on the door and asked in perfect Mandarin: "Hello, is anyone there?"
Unfortunately, no one replied to her.
Christina walked in bravely and soon arrived at the hall.
The hall has a ceiling height of nearly 6 meters, and a crystal chandelier hangs from the second floor to the first floor.
There were spacious aisles on both sides, and the most conspicuous place was the long French dining table that Christina had seen before.
The long dining table is laid with the most expensive tableware from France. I heard that this tableware was previously only supplied to the French royal family and has a history of more than 200 years.
Christina looked at this Western restaurant with a European classical palace style and felt that the owner of this restaurant must have great taste.
"Hello, is anyone there? I heard that this is a restaurant. Can we eat now?"
Christina asked, raising her voice.
Soon, a person in neon JK uniform ran out.
"Oh, sorry, we're not open yet."
Guan Yingying said apologetically.
After hearing what Guan Yingying said, Christina couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
"Oh, then when are you open? I want to come over and try it."
Christina was afraid that she would disturb Guan Yingying, so she was very cautious, which made Guan Yingying feel uncomfortable.
"We plan to open for business at the beginning of next month," said Guan Yingying.
"Early next month? Oh my God, isn't that still a dozen days away?"
Christina did not hide the disappointment on her face at all.
"Forehead……"
Guan Yingying looked at Christina and decided to help her.
"But we are tasting the food now, if you want, you can try the food with us."
"Really?"
Christina's eyes lit up and she agreed immediately.
"Thank you so much, God bless you, I hope God will bless you."
Guan Yingying scratched her head. She didn't expect that the person in front of her was a loyal believer.
But it’s okay, because this person happens to be a foreigner, and she is the most accurate in tasting the food.
"Come on, we just happen to be in need of an authentic foreign tongue."
Having said that, Guan Yingying took Christina into the inner kitchen.
In the inner room, the chefs were busy coming and going, preparing exquisite dishes.
Christina covered her mouth in disbelief. She saw a lot of foreign kitchen utensils in the kitchen.
For example, there is an oven specifically for baking pizza, a machine specifically for making cheese, and so on.
The kitchen utensils here are even more complete than those in Christina's own home.
Christina looked at the chefs here and found that they were all foreigners.
The guy making the pizza is obviously of Italian descent.
The chef who was making Indian parathas was obviously of a high caste.
The uncle who is making baked snails with cheese is obviously from France at first glance.
Christina didn't expect that everything in this western restaurant, from tableware and kitchen utensils to chefs, were of foreign origin.
"Come, try this caviar first."
Guan Yingying handed a case of caviar to Christina.
After Christina took it, she was stunned.
This portion of caviar is top-grade black and white caviar from Norway. If sold outside, it would cost at least 2,000 yuan.
She didn't expect that she could try such high-end dishes.
"Is this really available to me?" Christina asked.
Guan Yingying nodded: "Of course, you are our future guest, you have to taste it and if you think it tastes good, we will recommend it to our guests."
Christina looked at the outer packaging of the caviar. The production date on it was from a few days ago.
This shows that the ingredients here are specially airlifted from abroad.
Looking at the foreign chefs of different nationalities here, you can tell that the boss has put a lot of effort into recreating foreign dining.
"Then I'll be welcome."
Christina took a spoonful and put it into her mouth.
In an instant, she felt the fish eggs bursting in her mouth, and the sweet juice almost made her swallow her tongue.
"tasty!"
Christina doesn't have a very wide Mandarin vocabulary, and she wishes she could learn more adjectives to describe how delicious this dish is.
"I think you look like a Frenchman. I have this dish of baked snails with cheese ready. Would you like to try it?"
