Chapter 188 Helping Pretty Ladies Is Every Gentleman's Duty(1/2)
The name of the restaurant is neeko, because the name is the same as the name of a character in the game, so Han Qi ate here once when he first came to Helsinki.
After all, the Cumulus Hotel Melakhti where he stayed was also opposite this restaurant.
After living in Finland for a period of time, I have eaten local food, Turkish food, Japanese and Chinese food, and finally found that this restaurant closest to me is the one with the best taste.
It has nothing to do with the dish, it’s just the chef’s skill.
Chinese cuisine...let’s not mention it.
But it may be that Han Qi didn't find a good place. In the Chinese restaurant he went to before, the chef was actually a local Finnish man. I heard that this chef had learned cooking in China, but after eating his food
The dish made Han Qi always wonder if this person was expelled from the school.
The changes are too outrageous.
After entering the restaurant, he sat down at a seat by the window with a view of the street. Fesaidi carefully sat on the opposite side.
"Want a secret grilled steak set meal, how about you? Fisaidi."
"I'll just have a fried chicken drumstick and English black tea."
The waiter said: "Today's special desserts are dark brick chocolate, fruit mousse, and fried banana. They are free. Which one do you want, sir?"
"Hmm... mousse," Fesaidi said.
The waiter took the menu and left. Han Qi put his elbows on the table, clasped his hands together, and looked out the window.
His favorite place to eat in a restaurant is the seat by the window. Although there is no privacy, looking at the bright environment and the people coming and going outside the window will make him more open-minded, especially the exotic beauties who occasionally pass by.
Definitely a good helper for triggering inspiration.
No wonder foreigners often talk about muse when they are inspired, but never talk about male gods.
Fisaidi didn't look outside. He just looked at Han Qi's suitcase from time to time, wondering if it would be damaged if he put it in the painting tube not long after he finished painting.
The waiter served two glasses of soda. Han Qi took a sip, looked at Fesaidi and asked, "Are you here for tourism?"
"No, I'm studying at an art college nearby."
He also looked at Han Qi's suitcase and couldn't help but ask: "Is it okay for you to put the painting in here?"
"No problem, don't be too precious. It's not the first time I've done this. I don't sit in the studio every day and don't go anywhere. How can I have a special place to show off my paintings? And I don't want to paint even if I sit there all the time."
If Han Qi doesn't travel, he just wants to play games.
Han Qi ordered a set meal, and the appetizer arrived, which was salad with herb dressing. Although the salad plate was small, there were many dishes in it, which looked colorful and fresh.
For a set menu of 465 euros, you still need to pay attention to the presentation skills.
Fesaidi was naturally hungry after standing all afternoon. When he saw Han Qi starting to eat, his stomach growled in embarrassment, but Han Qi didn't pay attention. Sometimes he got excited, not to mention hungry, and even suffered from stomachaches several times.
Second-rate.
After all, dough sculpture and painting are time-consuming things.
After finishing the salad in a few mouthfuls, Han Qi took a sip of water and asked, "What is it like in an art school? Is it fun?"
Fesaidi became happy when he heard this question. How could he forget about school? Although he thought Han Qi's paintings were very good, he still didn't know what was so good about him. If he brought Han Qi to school, let the professor
Take a look and ask the professor when the time comes.
"The school is very good. I have never seen such a beautiful campus in Germany before. Do you want to come and visit our school?"
He didn't lie, he just didn't know how to praise his school. However, Fesaidi felt that this issue was not important. As long as Han Qi was willing to go to the school to have a look, everything would be clear. After all, his school was really beautiful.
As long as art schools are not too bad, they will be full of design. This is valid no matter what country it is in.
"Okay." Han Qi agreed directly.
He never went to university, and the school where he went to junior college was actually just a technical school. He has always had a good impression of universities. After being in Finland for so many days, he visited all the tourist attractions and almost forgot that universities are also places to visit.
place.
After achieving his goal, Fesaidi stopped thinking about Han Qi's paintings and concentrated on eating.
So does Han Qi.
He rarely eats with men, but it depends on what he thinks. At this time, Han Qi just wants to find someone to chat with him, and doesn't care who the person sitting opposite him is.
Although there are advantages to traveling alone for a long time, there are also disadvantages.
Sometimes the obvious loneliness will cling to you from day to night like a gangrene on your bones.
It was because of such loneliness that Han Qi did not go to exchange euros early in the morning. Instead, he set up a stall on the street for a day, just to chat with various people.
This is pretty good.
Invite strangers to have a meal together.
Perfect!
The food in this restaurant is very fast. As soon as Han Qi finished the last dish, a waiter immediately brought another dish. If he hadn't watched them leave, Han Qi would have thought that they were standing nearby with the dishes, waiting for him at any time.
Finished eating.
The soup is Spanish tomato and seafood soup, and the appetizer is French grilled snails in the shell.
There are many ways to cook snails in French cuisine. I don’t know why the French are particularly fond of studying how to cook snails. This feeling is the same as how Chinese people often study how to eat crayfish. What about roasting snails and baking snails? I heard that the French also cook snails.
Wild snails are eaten to extinction.
Snails are also one of the four famous dishes in the world.
Han Qi had never eaten it before. It was the first time he tasted it when he came here last time.
The snails in French cuisine are different from the snails Han Qi has seen before. They are white and fleshy, and can reach about seven or eight centimeters in length. If you pick them up with your hands, they can cover more than half of your palm.
The roasted snail shell is reddish and has a strong fragrance.
There is a special tool for eating snails, which is a clamp. If you grab the back and press hard, the front clamp will open. At this time, you can use this clamp to grab the snails on the plate, and then release your hand.
The snail is firmly fixed on the clip.
At this time, use a fork to press the meat inside and pull it out, and the meat will come out.
The meat and shell of the snail are actually separate. The chef puts the snail meat back into the shell for good presentation, and this also preserves the flavor of the snail meat.
Snails look scary, but they taste good, and their meat is more tender than snail meat.
Since it is roasted, a lot of spices are added to it.
After finishing the roasted snails, the main course was served.
Secret grilled pork ribs.
When eating, Han Qi realized that these were lamb ribs. They were not fully cooked, but they tasted not smelly at all. And the sauce they paired with them was really amazing. The black sauce mixed with red wine was sour and sweet.
The taste completely eliminates the fishy smell of mutton.
While we were eating, it finally started to rain on the street outside. Helsinki residents did not have the habit of carrying umbrellas with them, so they approached the shops to take shelter from the rain.
Han Qi saw two girls hiding outside the glass, only thirty centimeters away from Han Qi. They turned around and saw Han Qi. The pretty one smiled friendly, and the other one also turned around and pulled her
My friend walked a little to the side.
Han Qi touched his face and thought doubtfully: "My face doesn't look like a bad person, does it?"
His appearance is not considered top-notch at home or abroad, but he is above average. In fact, as long as he is average-looking, he surpasses 60% of people, not to mention Han Qi is quite handsome.
Yes, you won’t run away if you are seen, right?
Han Qi shouted to the waiter not far away: "waiter!"
After checking out, this meal cost 612 euros, and there was also a 10% service charge. It seemed that today's income was enough to make up for this meal.
Take out two umbrellas from the suitcase.
He handed these two umbrellas to the waiter and said, "Give these two umbrellas to the two ladies outside for me, saying they were gifts from me."
Fisaidi hesitated to speak.
When Han Qi opened the suitcase just now, he took a look. It seemed that there were only these two umbrellas inside. If you gave them to them, wouldn't you go back?
It's okay to share it with me.
"Do you know them?" Fesaidi asked.
"I don't know." Han Qi shook his head, looked at Fesaidi's confused face, and said with a smile, "Helping ladies is the obligation of every gentleman, and I think they need these two umbrellas more than us. We men
What are you afraid of? Are you going to walk back along the street? Or take a car?"
‘Dong dong…’ Someone knocked on the window.
Han Qi followed the call and saw that one of the two girls was opening an umbrella, and the other was holding an umbrella in her hand. When she saw Han Qi looking over, she smiled and lip-synced: "kiitos..." and then shook the umbrella in her hand.
umbrella.
Han Qi nodded and shook his hand a few times.
Kiitos means thank you in Finnish. After staying here for so long, he already knows how to use some simple and commonly used Finnish vocabulary.
Then Han Qi said to Feisaidi: "Look, I think this kind of thanks is enough."
Fesaidi still doesn't understand.
