Chapter 211 God's Daughter
"We have made an appointment before, Miss Anna." Senior Sister Anna said to the waiter.
"Ladies, please follow me." The waiter led the three people to a seat by the window.
From here you can overlook the beauty of the entire building. In the yard is a fountain made of marble. The entire yard is planted with various flowers and plants. Although it is early spring, all kinds of colors are already competing for splendor.
Zhang Susu leaned over to whisper in Mi Xia's ear: "Mi Xia, this place is more luxurious than I imagined. The ancient imperial palace is just like this."
Mi Xia felt a little funny when she saw Zhang Susu being so cautious: "No matter how luxurious it is, it's just a restaurant. We are here to eat. We are customers, we are God. Don't be shy."
Zhang Susu nodded vigorously, with a hint of confidence in her eyes.
At this time, the waiter brought a menu to Mi Xia and the other two.
Mi Xia took the menu and found that it was not made of common paper, but tanned lambskin, with the cover inlaid with exquisite mithril patterns.
The menu did not take into account the fact that people in the United States should use English. All the words on the menu were written in French, without considering whether the people who ordered the dishes could understand them.
However, this was not a problem for Mi Xia. She took the menu and handed it to senior Anna first. The other party shook her hand to indicate that she could not understand French. The same thing happened to Zhang Susu.
Then Mi Xia ordered the dishes in standard and fluent French.
"Wow, Mi Xia, you can speak French too?" Senior Anna asked in surprise.
Before Mi Xia opened her mouth, Zhang Susu next to her said, "Of course, our Mi Xia is a girl who can speak eight foreign languages."
"God, eight languages! Are you God's biological daughter? God gave you such a beautiful face and a brilliant brain. To be honest, Mi Xia, I am a little jealous of you."
This was the second time Mi Xia heard the words "God's biological daughter". Thinking about her own space, Mi Xia wondered, could it be that she was really the biological daughter of some god?
After a while, the dishes were served one by one.
The first thing that came up was the appetizer bread, a small baguette spread with butter. Mi Xia ordered a bottle of local Lafite for the table wine. As for red wine, even though the amount has a certain effect on the taste, there is not much difference between ordinary wine and local wine, so Mi Xia did not waste money to order a higher-priced Lafite.
I have to say that this is a Michelin three-star restaurant. Just these few simple butter breads taste better than any bread Mi Xia has ever eaten.
It is said that the butter on the bread is all high-quality butter produced in the Normandy region of France, and is brought in by plane every few days.
The first appetizer that came up was a salad, roasted bell pepper salad with sturgeon caviar, and some black truffles sprinkled on top. This dish was quite refreshing, but the portion was too small and couldn't be picked up with two chopsticks.
"Mi Xia, how come these foreigners are so tall even though they eat so little food every day? Look at how muscular they are."
Zhang Susu was curious about why the baby still had this problem, so Mi Xia said, "It's probably because of the superior genes. These white people are so tall, and they usually eat a lot of beef and mutton."
"Okay, Susu. Let's not talk. If you can't help talking, you'll have to say baka when someone asks you about it!"
"Baka?" Zhang Susu repeated it twice, and suddenly she understood.
"Isn't this a swear word in Korean? Why do you want me to say this?" Zhang Susu said in confusion.
Mi Xia said, "We can't embarrass ourselves in front of our house. We should pay attention to our image."
...Zhang Susu was completely speechless.
Soon, the second course came up, which was French onion soup.
There are a few small yellow sweet onions floating in the thick beef soup, which has a very smooth taste.
"Mi Xia, this is delicious, but the portion is still a little small." Zhang Susu muttered.
"Eat slowly. The main course hasn't been served yet. Let's raise a glass to thank Senior Anna for her help today."
Mi Xia raised her glass and clinked glasses with senior sister Anna and Zhang Susu one by one.
"Mi Xia, what are you talking about? It's my honor to meet such a beautiful and elegant schoolmate like you. Come, let's have a toast." Senior sister Anna is a person who likes to entertain people.
Zhang Susu had never drunk red wine before, and she almost spit it out after taking a sip.
"Mi Xia, this red wine is sour and not tasty. I feel like vomiting. It's better than the hawthorn wine from our hometown, which is sweet..."
"This one sip costs several hundred yuan. You should savor it carefully. You can't just drink the whole cup in one gulp like this."
"Ah, several hundred, how can I swallow it? But didn't Senior Sister Anna say cheers?" Zhang Susu said aggrievedly.
"Haha..." Mi Xia and senior sister Anna laughed together.
"Susu, you still have to learn a little bit of table manners in the future. There will be frequent cocktail parties in school, but the etiquette of French dining is the most complicated. As Chinese people, we should learn a little bit about it. The most important thing is to have a full stomach."
Afterwards, the entire serving process became much smoother, with all kinds of dishes coming up like flowing water.
The whole French meal consists of thirteen dishes. Today's main course is French blue lobster baked snails. This is the first time Mi Xia has seen the combination of lobster and snails.
On the huge plate, the lobster's head stood proudly, with a mixture of lobster meat and snails underneath, all wrapped in cheese, and topped with finely chopped black and white truffles.
After cutting off a small piece of the crab, I picked it up with a fork. The full meat had long strings, and the fresh taste of lobster mixed with the aroma of snails and cheese hit me in the face.
I tried Mi Xia and it was worthy of being a Michelin three-star restaurant. The taste was better than I expected. Although it was not as greasy as Chinese cuisine, it had a different flavor.
"Susu, try it, it's delicious."
After Zhang Susu finished half a glass of red wine in one gulp, her whole face turned red. After hearing what Mi Xia said, she said with some embarrassment: "Mi Xia, can I eat this snail? I don't dare to eat it."
"This is a farmed snail. It's a different species and very delicious." Senior Anna said as she took a bite.
"Yeah, didn't you see what I was eating? Try it. If you really don't like it, forget it. It's good to try some things once." Mi Xia said.
After swallowing the food in her mouth, Senior Sister Anna couldn't help but say: "Thank God for the generosity of this, it's so delicious."
"Wasn't it Mi Xia's treat? How come it's God's gift?"
