"Oh, tell me..."

Zhou Dong nodded, his face very calm.

For Huailiangren's style, even if Zhou Dong is not familiar with the world, he can see the problem. He took out three bottles of white wine without trademarks, and the test was obvious. Moreover, this question was based on Huailiangren's careful arrangement, and the difficulty can be imagined.

"My friend, don't think I'm trying to make things difficult for you.

You also know that I have a little bit of a reputation in the French catering industry, so the owners of some famous wineries have some friendship with me.

Haha...these three bottles of white wine are all non-sale items they personally gave me. Since it is non-sale items, of course there will be no trademarks. If you misunderstand it, it will be my fault."

Huai Liangren, who had a smirk, looked like a fox who was about to deceive the puppet: "But it doesn't matter. If Zhou Dong, you are not good at choosing white wine, let me make the decision for you?"

After saying that, he looked at Zhou Dong quietly. The most important step in eating French food is to choose companion wine. If the old China relied on a good waiter to distinguish whether the guests were "dieters" who could eat or the "floaters" who were stupid and had a lot of money, then the polite waiters in the French restaurant would distinguish the guests in the wine selection process.

When you meet a nouveau riche who knows nothing, the polite restaurant waiters will definitely show you a gentlemanly smile when they face you, and you will be killed by death.

Although Huai Liangren values ​​Zhou Dong, he only admires Zhou Dong's talent in Chinese cuisine. He does not think that a kitchen intern from a petty-civilian family has the ability to choose a suitable bottle of white wine.

You should know that choosing white wine is even more difficult than choosing red wine. Most red wines can be judged by the year, but white wine is more particular. If you just choose the year, it will make a big joke.

Not to mention that there is not even a trademark on this bottle, even those who have a certain research on French wine will find it difficult to judge the quality of the food based on their taste alone. This is the job of a professional wine reviewer.

If he hadn't been born with a sensitive tongue, even the good man Huai would not dare to say that he would pick out a more suitable bottle of wine without a trademark; so if Zhou Dong was willing to "say defeat", he would definitely eliminate the embarrassment very gentlemanly, and then help Zhou Dong to "select" a bottle of suitable wine. Of course, taking a little bit of advantage will make him very happy...

"Oh, I don't really like letting others make decisions for me, so I'll do it myself."

Zhou Dong smiled and pointed to the bottle of wine in the middle and said, "Let's try this bottle first."

The waiter's eyes gently swept through Zhou Dong's big shorts, showing a professional smile and said, "Sir, do you need to sober up first?"

Huai Liangren glanced at the waiter and frowned slightly.

What a bastard! He actually had the courage to set a trap for my friend? If this was his restaurant, the waiter would be unemployed now.

He and Zhou Dong are like the five masters in the world. When they fight fiercely, any kind of evil moves can emerge one after another. But this is the matter between the five masters. When will it be the turn of the four ghosts in the Yellow River come to show off?

Zhou Dong looked at the waiter deeply, pointed to the spiral cork and said, "As a professional French restaurant waiter, you should know better than me that most of the white wines used in this bottle stopper do not need to sober up, right?

So the question you just now will make me suspect that you are not professional enough.”

Metal spiral corks are different from oak jars and are usually used on some wines with aged lifespan of no more than five years. Often, these wines have a characteristic, that is, they will have the best taste only when they are drunk when they are ‘young’.

This kind of bottle stopper is used in red wine or white wine, especially white wines, which are the most widely used.

Compared with oak stoppers, metal spiral bottle stoppers have poor air tightness, so this type of wine often undergoes a "self-tolerant" process during storage. You can pour it out and drink it directly, so you don't need to sober up.

This is actually just a common sense issue for people who often go to Western restaurants. Seeing that Zhou Dong is young and wearing big shorts, this waiter actually bullied people on purpose.

Of course he knew that this was Chef Huai's "guest". He only saw Chef Huai deliberately making things difficult for Zhou Dong, so he had the courage to flatter Huai Liangren. Who would have thought that not only did he flatter Ma Leshan, but he also met a real expert.

The waiter's face turned red when he was said, and he was speechless for a moment. Dai Jun glared at him fiercely: "Why don't you pour the wine quickly! Haha, Mr. Zhou, please don't be surprised, he is actually a temporary worker..."

"Oh, since you're a temporary worker, you can still be forgiven."

Zhou Dong took the white wine from the waiter, took a sip, nodded slightly, "It seems that Lao Huai, you are doing very well in France. I didn't expect that even a top winery like Moutong would give you non-selling products?"

Huai Liangren's expression changed slightly, and he laughed dryly: "Damn it, do whatever he wants..."

"The Mouton winery in Bordeaux has a long history and first-class quality, so there is no doubt about these. But if I had to choose, I wouldn't choose the white wine produced by Mouton..."

Zhou Dong smiled and said, "This is actually determined by the variety of grapes that make wine.

The Medoc production area in Bordeaux has the world's top-notch "Caberber sauvignon". With Mouton's brewing process, it is possible to have top-quality red wine. There is no doubt at all, just like Lafite, Mouton is the noble among red wines.

Unfortunately, the white wines produced by Medoc, the Sauvignon Blanc and Miscade were a bit unsatisfactory... God is always the fairest. Since Bordeaux has given the best red grapes, there will be some discounts on the white grapes.

Moreover, Mouton wine is famous for lack of stability, sometimes surprises people, and sometimes mediocre; plus it is always good at brewing red wine, so if I choose, I will decisively eliminate this bottle.”

Zhou Dong pointed to the bottle of white wine in the middle.

“Take it away…”

Huai Liang took a long breath and asked with some teeth itchy questions: "Don't tell me that Qingxiang Technical School is so luxurious that students can practice tasting the top French wine?"

"Well, I didn't learn it in school."

Zhou Dong's tone is dull. Since he suffered from bipolar disorder, he has always consciously controlled his tone.

"Then where did you learn these things?" Huai Liangren was extremely curious.

"If you ask the doctor if you don't decide the matter, will you believe me if I say this?"

"I believe you, a big-headed ghost!"

Huai Liangren cursed in his heart, but his face was still calm: "My friend, I wonder how you would choose the remaining two bottles of wine?"

"Then let's start with the bottle on the left."

Zhou Dong nodded to the waiter.

"Mr. Zhou, please."

The waiter changed his previous contempt for Zhou Dong, carefully opened the bottle of wine, and handed the wine glass with both hands to Zhou Dong with great respect.

After taking the wine glass, Zhou Dong took a sip, and after a while of silence, he glanced at Huai Liangren with a smile, and then said to the waiter: "Please open the bottle on the right too."

"Okay, Mr. Zhou, please taste it."

After taking the wine glass handed over by the waiter again, Zhou Dong tasted it first, hesitated slightly and said, "Is there pure water?"

"Of course sir."

The waiter quickly took the water. Zhou Dong took the pure water and rinsed his mouth. He picked up the wine glass and tasted it again. After being silent for more than ten seconds, he said: "Your socializing is indeed very broad. From Bordeaux to Burgundy, is it that the owner of the French winery is your friend?

Yes, I think the best white wine is from Burgundy. This is still determined by the grape varieties that make wine. Perhaps from the moment ‘Chardonnay’ appears on the earth, it is destined to be the best raw material for making white wine…”

Zhou Dong said calmly: "What made me embarrassed just now was that these two bottles of white wine were actually from Burgundy's super-grade grand cru quality white wine.

It is indeed difficult to choose one of them as your companion wine today.

Now I can be sure, I'm just trying to ask me a problem on purpose?"

"This guy is simply a dog's tongue! It's not simple, it's not simple. Has my dear lover finally met the 'lifelong rival'?"

Huai Liangren shook his head a few times before he threw away this very second-rate idea. He looked at Zhou Dong with a serious expression and said, "It's better to say it's a test than a dilemma. My friend, after all, not everyone is qualified to let me stick my butt out and cook for him!"

"Unfortunately, you met one today."
