Zongman: The sin of pride, the shadow king! - Chapter 95
Kaiseki cuisine originally refers to the meal that the host invites guests to taste during the Japanese tea ceremony.
But now it is no longer limited to tea ceremony, but has become a common high-end cuisine in Japan.
Sapporo, Chuo Ward.
In a restaurant in an antique private room——
“”Sorry to have kept you waiting!”
After sitting for nearly ten minutes and drinking a cup of green tea, the food was finally served.
Two young women in kimonos brought a tray with the first dish of Kaiseki cuisine – pay first!
That is, appetizers!
There were three small dishes in total, namely pickled cucumbers, wasabi octopus, and boiled edamame in salt water.
It’s quite common.
The portion of the dishes is also very small, each person can only eat three mouthfuls, no more.
Although Xia Mo had learned about Kaiseki cuisine with Hiratsuka Shizuka and Kitagawa Umi before, she still couldn’t help but twitch her lips after waiting for nearly ten minutes for this.
“I’m ready to eat!”
Kitagawa Umi, who was sitting on the left side of the table, put his hands together, closed his eyes and said.
Hiratsuka Shizuka and Kamikaze Toru followed closely behind. Seeing this, Xia Mo also said something and picked up his chopsticks.
“So sour!”
A bite of pickled cucumber made Kitagawa Umi’s expression change like this!
However, 693 returned to her pretty face the next second, but she was a little stunned.
She chewed it, tilted her head and said in surprise:
“It tastes pretty good.”
Xia Mo was touched by the contrast between the two and the two. He smiled and picked up a cucumber. There were only two cucumbers. Xia Mo picked one up and put it into his mouth.
The taste was sweet and sour. When he bit it, he felt that the cucumber was very crisp and refreshing. Then a fresh cucumber fragrance spread in his mouth.
The taste also changed. The sweet and sour taste was mixed with a hint of sweetness.
“It’s really delicious and appetizing.”
As an appetizer, it’s quite good.
I can only say that he is worthy of being a graduate of Totsuki!
That’s right!
The store manager and chef is the chief graduate of the 62nd term. He didn’t appear in the original book!
There are thousands of Japanese chefs, and half of them are senior chefs from Totsuki!
“……”
“This wasabi octopus is also a must-try!”
On the right side of the table,
Shizuka Hiratsuka tasted the wasabi octopus, squinted her eyes with pleasure, took a sip of sake, and said happily:
“The octopus is of high quality, tender and fresh, paired with crispy and refreshing mountain stingrays and a proper amount of secret mustard, it is really delicious.——！”
“Very suitable for drinking!”
“Great minds think alike!”
Kamikaze Tetsu gave Teacher Jing a thumbs up.
These two were the only ones drinking.
Xia Mo was going to have a drink, but the store wouldn’t sell it to him – he was underage, and it was obvious at a glance.
Minors are not allowed to drink in Japan.
Teacher Jing was also trying to stop him.
This guy was so insistent in a strange place – obviously teacher-student relationships were not allowed.……
“……”
Among the three appetizers, the most common one was boiled edamame in salt water.
Although it was not outstanding, it was delicious because of the good quality of the ingredients. However, it was a bit difficult for Xia Mo to eat because there were only three edamame pods.
In the words of Zhu Bajie, he hadn’t even tasted the flavor before the food was gone!
“Sorry for the long wait, next is eight inches!”
“Flatfish fin sushi, and various seasonal vegetables.”
The two women in kimonos brought four exquisite eight-inch lacquer boxes.
The lacquer boxes contained a flatfish fin sushi and a combination of several seasonal vegetables.
The portion was also pitifully small.
Next, there were the dishes such as the shokudo, the shokugo, the lid, the grilled food, the vinegar dishes, the cold bowl, the middle pork mouth, the strong food, the rice, the fragrant food, the bowl, and the water.
After a set of processes, the number of dishes exceeded twenty.
Xia Mo didn’t count, but it was definitely more than that.
All the dishes tasted excellent, but the portions were too small, and the serving time was too long, basically every time you had to wait five to ten minutes.
I heard from Shizuka Hiratsuka that Kaiseki cuisine is like this.
It follows the ideas of Zen Buddhism, so Kaiseki cuisine is also called pure heart cuisine!
Xia Mo was a little confused at the time. (To read the violent novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Finally, of course, he also respected their food culture.
After a meal, it took nearly two hours
……
“Mr. Kamikaze, thank you for the hospitality. I’m sorry for costing you money today!”
“”Arigato!”
At the entrance of the restaurant, Xia Mo expressed his gratitude to Kamikaze Toru.
Hiratsuka Shizuka and Kitagawa Umi were standing next to Xia Mo, bowed politely, and said
“Nothing.”
Kamikaze Toru waved his hand and said,”I’m sorry for the poor hospitality!”
“What are your plans for the future?”He changed the subject
“We plan to walk around.”
Xia Mo glanced at the busy streets and replied.
At this time, we were on a street in the central area of Sapporo. It was a rare trip, so we planned to walk around and buy some specialties and gifts.
“Then let the driver follow you.”
Kamikaze Toru looked at the extended luxury car parked on the side of the road and took the initiative to give way.[]
I was also very tactful and didn’t say anything like”I’ll be your tour guide” or something like that.
“No, I left the coordinates at the resort, so we can go back directly.”
Xia Mo shook his head, not giving Kamikaze Che a chance to say anything else, and waved his hand, saying,”Then…see you again if there’s a chance.””
“……See you again someday.” Kamikaze Tetsu had no choice but to say so.
Then, the group separated.
……
The sun was shining brightly, with no clouds in the sky. The afternoon sun was warm and comfortable, making people feel relaxed.
In late summer, I took Hiratsuka Shizuka and Kitagawa Umi to stroll on the streets of Sapporo.
A breeze blew up countless pink and white cherry blossom petals, and a beautiful cherry blossom rain fell from the sky. It added a touch of dreamy color to the city of Sapporo.
Today at the end of April – the cherry blossoms in Tokyo have already withered, but those in Sapporo are just beginning to bloom.
“”Xia Mo-kun, Xiao Jing, let’s take some photos!”
Kitagawa Umi was attracted by the surrounding scenery.
Cherry blossoms are never boring, and the unfamiliar city makes for great photo material!
She took out her cell phone and took a lot of photos with Xia Mo and Hiratsuka Jing – they took photos while walking, leaving many beautiful memories in the album!
