Gu Yunwu was stunned and in disbelief.
But the facts are right in front of us.
In the video, Fu Yu is cooking salt and pepper shrimp and tiger with skillful and smooth movements.
When making improvements, both the angle at which he cuts the knife and the speed at which it falls are extremely precise.
Frankly speaking, Gu Yunwu asked himself, he might have to go through repeated attempts and practice before he could achieve this level.
Realizing this, Gu Yunwu fell silent.
How did Fu Yu develop such superb knife skills?
Also, how did he come up with the idea to improve this dish?
Unlike other seafood, gobies have a very hard shell.
If improved scoring is done before cooking, it will inevitably cause the shell to rise and affect the final presentation effect.
And the meat quality of gobies and tigers will definitely be affected.
It is precisely because he is very familiar with this dish that when he saw Fu Yu's knife skills, he instinctively thought about what he could do if it were him.
However, just as he was concentrating on thinking, Zhao Meng suddenly spoke again.
"It was also through this incident that I came up with an idea. In fact, our store should focus on the development and promotion of innovative dishes on the basis of retaining the original special old-fashioned dishes."
"The innovative dishes promoted by Fu Yu this time are a very successful example."
"According to my statistics, since the store began to promote the innovative Great Harvest Stew, the order rate of this dish has increased significantly. And since the improved version of salt and pepper shrimp and tiger began to be promoted, this dish has become a popular dish recently. And customers will directly choose Fu Yu as the spoon chef when ordering."
"I think this incident is not a result, but an opportunity. As long as our store seizes this opportunity, it will soon usher in the peak period of customer flow again!"
After Zhao Meng finished speaking, he subconsciously glanced at Yao Shi, who was sitting peacefully.
Yao Shi nodded slightly with satisfaction.
Zhao Meng felt relieved and knew that what he said was quite beautiful.
Others were collectively silent.
Everyone is thinking.
In fact, there are many innovative and improved dishes in the store. Later, the recipes were even customized because of this.
However, when it comes to innovative dishes, Yao Shi has always been in charge, with Zhao Meng and Gu Yunwu only participating in the later stages.
But Fu Yu's previous success shows that this matter may be a matter of collective wisdom.
It's not because Yao Shi is so powerful and has enough vision and experience that everyone instinctively thinks that he is enough for this matter.
This idea is very good!
The most important thing is that if this method is implemented, newcomers in the kitchen will have a chance to show their talents.
After all, in today's environment, if you want to stand out and be valued by chefs and leaders, you must perform well.
Although Chollima is somewhat famous in Bei'an, it is not really a particularly famous hotel outside the city, in the province, or even outside the province.
At most it can be regarded as an old restaurant with local characteristics.
Even during the Chinese New Year, we even need to find ways to attract customers to place orders.
How can this be considered a famous hotel?
Long before Yao Shi came here, Chollima was just a two-story store. Although it was an old and inherited store, it had never been expanded.
At the beginning, Mr. Dong's idea was to stick to one store, not to get rich, but to seek stability.
When he arrived at Dong Juntian's place, he wanted to expand and open a branch.
Until Yao Shi came back and took over the kitchen duties, he finally persuaded Dong Juntian to use the money from branch expansion to rebuild the store.
Only then did the Chollima Hotel really take off and become a well-known hotel in Bei'an, even known to a few people in and outside the province.
But even so, in fact, if you really come out of Bei'an, you won't be ranked at all.
The main reason is that the store has always promoted the characteristic old taste style, which has a limited audience.
Young people will try new things and check in on old flavors, but they won't be too nostalgic.
This suggestion of encouraging and promoting innovation was put forward at the right time, and it is likely to bring new customers and even competitiveness to Chollima.
Dong Juntian is a hotel owner, so he is naturally happy to see this happen.
After listening carefully to what Zhao Meng said, Dong Juntian suddenly asked: "Old Zhao, do you really think this idea is feasible?"
When this question was asked, even he thought it was nonsense, but he still asked it subconsciously.
Because he is actually very worried about this innovative dish.
At the beginning, Yao Shi also wanted to carry out innovation and improvement with great fanfare, but when Dong Juntian tried to promote it, he did not achieve the expected results.
This was also the reason why he was worried that this matter would not be implemented smoothly.
Zhao Meng nodded: "Yes, I have made preliminary statistical judgments. Customers' acceptance of innovative dishes is very high, including the number of orders placed, post-meal comments, and the frequency of second visits to the store to taste. All are summarized. !”
Dong Juntian reached out his hand and patted the table in surprise and joy: "Very good!"
Later, after everyone's attention was fully focused, Dong Juntian said solemnly: "Lao Zhao's proposal is very good! In fact, our store also tried to promote innovative specialties at the beginning, but because the effect was not ideal, we slowly We continue to promote the old taste characteristics.”
"But as Lao Zhao said, after all, as time changes, customers' tastes and demands for recipe styles are also changing. We must follow the trend in order to retain more customers and bring more customers to the store. Much profit!”
"The implementation and promotion of this matter are naturally indispensable to the attempts and efforts of everyone in the kitchen. Since everyone thinks this proposal is good, then I think it is completely possible to launch a specific implementation plan after systematic and rigorous discussion and negotiation. "
Everyone who didn’t express their opinions during the whole process: “…”
Dong Juntian asked: "What do you think?"
Everyone nodded.
To put it bluntly, the arm cannot twist the thigh. The boss has already approved of something, but who dares to say no?
If the boss thinks it’s good, then it’s good.
The boss gives the order, they execute it and that's it.
What's more, this matter has nothing to do with the service staff in their front office!
At this time, Zhao Meng suddenly said: "The reason I apologized to Chef Gu just now was actually for this reason."
"These orders are really not those we take the initiative to grab, but the customers themselves who come to understand and voluntarily skip the order and pay the deposit."
Zhao Meng continued: "But one thing is that we have indeed received more orders recently. Moreover, orders from Fu Yu's old customers have also begun to increase slightly."
"So in terms of taking orders, we are actually a little busy here, but customers have already placed orders, so we can't refuse the orders."
"Well, speaking of it, we are forced to have no choice but...but no matter what, we really didn't do a good enough job in this matter. I must apologize to Chef Gu!"
Zhao Meng said, and suddenly smiled at Gu Yunwu: "However, I believe that with Chef Gu's mind and structure, he will definitely understand our difficulties, and will take the initiative to lend a hand in the future when we are really overwhelmed. Giving aid, right?”
Gu Yunwu: "!"
spit!
Li Erluzi, Li Fox, you black-hearted traitor... blah blah blah...
