Private Interview with Two Michelin Stars Quince

In order to formally bid farewell to Hu Shi He Sai's life and start to lose weight, I chose Quince, a two-star Michelin restaurant, as the "last resort" of this period. I ca n’t afford to be hurt during the rush hour. I ca n’t help but kill him directly in the restaurant. Looking at other people in suits and shoes, it feels too out of place ... remind everyone to pay attention to the dressing code if there is a condition ~

 

 

The lobby environment is really too good to say. The combination of New American and classic styles is very well presented, and the layout is very reasonable, creating a sense of privacy for the dining area. In addition to the lobby, this home also has private cubicles for banquets for multiple people.

 

 

This is a rare star restaurant where you can order wine alone, so happy to have a cocktail! But the cup is actually plastic, a bit cheap ...

 

 

Let's start eating now! Early warning: Because the indoor light is too dark, some photos are taken out of order, and they will not be saved in the later period. Please forgive the readers.

 

✿ Appetizer: Canape ✿

Salmon sashimi and grilled crispy biscuits mobilize all tastes and are good as appetizers.

 

 

✿ Fanny bay oyster ✿

Samphire, green strawberry, lemon verbena

Raw fish has always been my favorite! This oyster is no exception. It has a sour taste and melts at the mouth.

 

 

✿ Tsar Nicoulai Reserve Caviar ✿

Avocado, radish, from age blanc

Trinity dishes, perfect score! The main caviar, combined with butter and jam sauce, is unparalleled! The whole is crispy and refreshing, the caviar is absolutely generous, and all look caviar.

 

 

✿ Green Asparagus ✿

Anchovy, burrata, nasturtium

It can be said that it is Quince's main dish. Although it is mainly based on asparagus and other vegetarian foods, the taste is much more delicious than imagined.

 

 

✿ White Asparagus ✿

English pea, mushroom, almond

White asparagus, similar ingredients make a completely different taste, and feel the chef's intentions more. In contrast, the author prefers green, and the white model feels lighter. It is a method of baking, so it has a bitter taste.

 

 

✿ Gnudi ✿

Double 8 dairy buffalo milk ricotta, fava beans

Molecular cuisine, the beans inside are particularly delicious, the small dumplings made by ricotta are also stunned, not greasy, with green beans and soup base, the texture is dense.

 

 

✿Black cod✿

Wild ramp, manila clam, fennel

It is between cooked and half-lived, so the fishy smell is a little heavy, but it does not affect the taste of the food at all, and it is very soft and tender.

 

 

✿ Four types of bread 餐

The bread in the meal is very special. Unlike other restaurants that only provide one kind of bread, Quince has four bread flavors to choose from. It is presented in a Japanese-style meal box. The butter is sculpted and the taste is salty. If you do n’t have enough bread, you can ask for it, but remember to give some food to the food behind.

 

 

✿Farm Egg✿

Carrot, perigord truffle, sunchoke

Although it uses eggs as a base, it feels like a thick sauce that fills the mouth, is dense and solid, and it is the best as an egg dish.

 

 

The next dish is mainly mutton. I was a bit stunned when I saw the oven. I can see this thing in Xingxing Restaurant! It turned out to be delicate and unusual roasted lamb, meatballs made from minced lamb, roasted with mini onions, and the taste was extremely tender.

 

 

✿ Agnolotti Verdi ✿

Paine farm squab, borage, guanciale

It is a type of tortellini filled with vegetables, with a little meat. The refreshing texture makes the main food unburdened.

 

 

✿ Rhubarb ✿

Hibiscus, kumquat, mandarin

Enter the final dessert time! Although it is a dessert, the first taste is sweet and the second taste is bitter, similar to the taste of citrus. Just to relieve the greasiness in the mouth.

 

 

✿ Fresh run farm strawberry ✿

Buttermilk, sorrel, white chocolate

It may seem soft and soft to the touch, but it is actually a little hard. The use of white chocolate is pure and green, and the delicate details are carved out. The taste is naturally extraordinary.

 

 

✿ Mignardises ✿

Chocolates, confections

The final dessert is a visual feast! Full of trolleys, you can really have one! The waiter also encouraged us to try them all? Of course, I still do what I can, and only choose a few of them.

 

 

——Invited to visit Houchi——

Before the meal was finished, the waiter came over and asked if he was interested in visiting the chef. It's such a warm hospitality! What nonsense! !! Of course I'm going! A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Grab the camera decisively and go straight to the kitchen! On the way, I talked to the waiter: "Will every guest come to visit the chef?"

 

A: "No, we will choose the guests who seem more interested and excited to visit."

 

"..."

 

So what is the excitement of our table ... It seems that if everyone wants to visit the back kitchen, then they are very excited!

 

 

In short, it ’s a rare opportunity to cherish it. After getting in, you first met the chef. The chef made a brief introduction and began to talk about the division of labor in the kitchen. Caviar (see how precious this thing is), there are those who specialize in fish food, etc. The chefs are all nice, the key is super handsome! Seeing us all greeting enthusiastically ~ Xingxing Eye ~

 

 

This little brother is responsible for the order of each customer, and it is up to him to grasp the overall situation! Handsome guy works hard! !!

 

 

At dinner, there were about 20 chefs. The chef said that everyone would come to the kitchen every morning at six. Does Quince have breakfast? The chef said with a smile, no, they are here from 20 o'clock to start preparing all day stuff. Oh my god! !! !! Completely stunned, I didn't expect the chefs to be so hard. I really need to cherish the food in my mouth, not just the price, but the hard work of the XNUMX chefs behind.

 

This is a small dessert, smoothie-like, presented during the visit to Houqiang, which is refreshing and bitter. The effect of dry ice is great!

 

 

last of the last:

Quince can get two stars, in addition to delicious, quality of service should be very important reason. During the meal, the waiters will come to talk to us about different topics and care whether the food is suitable. When I see the author holding the camera, I will also actively introduce the restaurant's furnishings and history. The story behind the original photos on the wall It's not easy! Later, I also talked to several other Michelin restaurants, and also gave very inspirational insights, so that the author's understanding of Michelin restaurants in San Francisco has taken it a step further.

 

The author asked if I could take a menu home for collection. Without saying a word, I took the menu very sweetly and packed it in a folder for the author. When I went out, it was too late, and I prepared warm chocolate for you to drink on the road. Tell me! !! Is this warm home service warm? !! It's almost warmed up! !!
