喺米國住而又鍾意食嘅朋友都一定聽過 French Laundry啦。呢間米記三星好多年被選為全美第一嘅餐廳,更曾經獲選為全球第一添!
難得住近 napa valley, 我想試好耐架喇。但佢出名難訂位!要早兩個月訂架~~ 不過佢個電話長年唔通,opentable又長期冇位。咁點呢?
網上有人話,某啲 napa valley 嘅酒店有機會可以幫你訂到,但我唔想無端端走去住酒店喎~
唯有狂試opentable啦。
點知比我發現一個trick!
由於訂 French Laundry 係要比低信用咭資料,唔出現係會照收你錢嘅。所以訂咗位又打算唔到嘅人一定會喺限期前 cancel... opentable 晚晚 update, 我試過好幾晚半夜3點幾試係會忽然間有位架!但就未必啱你schedule 囉。
結果皇天不負有心人,我揀到一個weekend呀!嗱嗱聲訂啦梗係!
好開心呀~
快啲睇下我地食咗咩啦!
