When Fu Yu returned to the store, it was not yet nine o'clock.
He didn't go to the kitchen, but turned directly to the dormitory through the back door.
It's an early morning shift here at Zhao Meng. Several people who live locally have already gone back. The corridor is quiet and no one is walking around.
Fu Yu returned to his house, called his family first, chatted with his parents for a while, and then took a simple shower.
Seeing that it was past ten o'clock, Fu Yu took the packing box to the rest room in the public area and used the microwave to heat up the braised lamb and grilled lamb chops that had already cooled down.
This thing is inedible when it's cold, and there's a thick layer of suet on it.
The dishes Zhao Meng ordered were not actually many, but they were almost all hard dishes. The three of them chatted animatedly and drank a lot of wine, but the food didn't touch the dishes much.
There are two microwave ovens in the shared rest room of the dormitory, making it convenient for employees to eat at a hot spot.
Because the kitchen is so busy, sometimes I don’t even have time to have dinner.
Finally, after the customers leave the store, I have to organize and prepare the dishes, check the warehouse, and verify tomorrow's income with the buyer.
When I got off work, I realized that the dinner I had prepared was already cold, and it was time to clear out the kitchen, so I simply took some food back to the dormitory and heated it up for a bite.
This newly added rest room is quite popular among hotel guests, especially the two microwaves, which often come in handy.
However, when Dong Juntian was willing to approve this matter, it was because he considered that the addition of a new rest room would be convenient on the one hand, and on the other hand, it would prevent the kitchen staff from going to the kitchen to open fire after get off work, not to mention the electricity consumption. , the key is that it is easy to leave security risks.
Fu Yu liked this rest room quite a lot. Occasionally when he came back from Shangshi Private Restaurant, Liu Yunong would give him some special dishes cooked in the restaurant that day.
Sometimes, when he is hungry in the middle of the night, he can just come over and heat it up to eat, which is very convenient.
When Fu Yu went to the rest room to heat up food, the corridor was still quiet. After he finished heating up the braised lamb, and just as he put the lamb chops into the microwave, someone came out of the room diagonally across the door.
Sun Qingning came over with a roar.
"Hey you! Chef Fu, what kind of food are you making hot? It's so delicious!"
As he said that, Sun Qingning walked closer, stretched out his head and took a look: "Hey! This must be mutton tendon! What a good life! This is so fragrant, I feel hungry just smelling it!"
He had a loud voice, and the corridor was extremely quiet at this time. When he shouted, someone else heard the sound and ran out.
Zhang Jinyu and Sun Qingning were in the same room. They were washing their faces in the bathroom when they heard the sound and came over to take a look.
"Yo! It smells like mutton!" Zhang Jinyu sniffed hard: "It smells like braised mutton!"
Fu Yu couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "This nose is really good!"
There were a lot of packed dishes, and Fu Yu didn't want to eat alone. Sun Qingning and Zhang Jinyu happened to not mind, so the three of them happily heated up the dishes, brought them to the room, and had a lively late-night snack together.
...
Although the New Year has passed, the business in the store has been very prosperous.
It’s around 11 o’clock at noon, which is the peak time for customers to come in to dine and the busiest time in the kitchen.
Fu Yu held three ordering orders in his hand. He had just put the dishes in the pot on the plate, and before he could shape them, he received the order from the ordering clerk.
This is a large banquet order list, with eighteen dishes ordered. It is said that a group of high school students are here.
Fu Yu's heart skipped a beat!
I asked one more question: "How many people are here?"
The orderer said: "There are more than ten of them, wearing the uniforms of No. 2 Middle School, and they ordered a lot of beer."
That's it!
After inquiring about the situation, Fu Yu hurriedly looked at the order list carefully, and then ordered the waiters to start preparing the dishes.
They say that a young man will live in poverty!
This is not said for nothing.
When a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old is growing his body, his stomach is like a bottomless pit, and the amount of food he can eat is frightening.
At the moment, I have ordered eighteen dishes, which seems to be quite a lot, and I might have to add more dishes later.
The service staff in the front office were happy to receive such a table, but the kitchen staff was complaining endlessly.
For the same commission money, the five or six dishes cooked on the small banquet are incomparable to the dozen or so dishes on this table.
Especially for this single-seat noodle dish, I still can’t figure out how to add dishes!
After instructing the workers to prepare the dishes, Fu Yu quickly sorted out the order of cooking the next dishes.
In such a situation where several orders are received at the same time, all dishes need to be divided into categories.
For example, the speed of cooking, the connection between cooking operations, and the alternating cooking of hot and cold dishes must ensure that customers at each table can have a smooth meal without waiting too long.
In addition, the order of serving dishes at each table must be taken into consideration, so that customers cannot wait for a long time during the meal, and the time gap for serving dishes cannot be too long.
This greatly tests the chef's familiarity with each dish, as well as accurate cooking time judgment and orderly operation arrangements.
After roughly cooking the dishes on the several orders, Fu Yu turned around and told Zhang Jinyu: "I have received a new order for a large banquet. You will do the basic preparation for a while."
Zhang Jinyu hurried over to prepare the vegetables, while the workers busily began to carry the vegetables and perform basic cutting after cleaning.
Everyone has been working in the kitchen for nearly a year, and has experienced a lot of things like this, and they can still handle them in an orderly, fast and orderly manner.
At the same time, in the large box on the second floor, a dozen high school boys were sitting together, laughing and joking.
A tall boy put his hand on the shoulder of the short boy next to him and smiled arrogantly: "Since it's your treat today, can we just eat together?"
The short boy's face was unhappy, his mouth was tightened, and his eyes were full of anger. He just sat silently and said nothing.
The tall boy squeezed his shoulder hard as a warning.
The short boy reluctantly responded: "Well, I'm treating you."
After saying that, thinking about the dishes I just ordered, I subconsciously reached out and touched my wallet in my pocket, begging like a mosquito: "Can you please stop ordering, I'm afraid I don't have enough money..."
Almost at the same time he spoke, the tall boy turned to the others and announced loudly: "Everyone is open to eat today! Wang Jinrui said, let them feel safe and eat without worry, he is treating you!"
When Wang Jinrui heard this, his eyes widened and he hurriedly tried to stop him, but his voice was drowned out by a burst of warm cheers.
Just at this time, the waiter began to deliver drinks, and there was another noise in the box.
Wang Jinrui watched bottles of wine being placed on the table, his face full of anxiety and uneasiness.
"Why don't you stop drinking? I have classes in the afternoon and I have to go back to school. I'm afraid..."
The tall boy glanced at him sideways: "What nonsense! Good food goes with good wine, do you understand? You're here, don't be such a spoiler!"
As he said that, he stretched out his foot under the table and kicked Wang Jinrui.
This kick was a bit harsh, and Wang Jinrui immediately grimaced, arched his back, and did not dare to say any more.
"Hey!"
At this time, the boy sitting near the door patted the table, waited for others to look over, and said with a smile: "I didn't think of it when I was ordering. I heard that their seafood barbecue is pretty good. We are the same." No, Wang Jinrui, can you order two more to try?"
Before Wang Jinrui could respond, the tall boy had already said, "Really? What's delicious? Order it and try it!"
As soon as the ordering was mentioned, everyone immediately started making noise again, calling the waiter to add more dishes while discussing what to order.
The waiter looked at a room full of young men who were noisy and couldn't name the dishes, so he specially introduced the special barbecue in the store.
One of the boys suddenly remembered something and said: "By the way, I remember that there seemed to be a barbecue takeout evaluation program on the hot search before, and there was this store at that time!"
After saying that, the boy turned to the waiter and asked: "Right, is this the case?"
The waiter heard this and nodded: "Yes, our store's barbecue takeout was rated as the best seafood barbecue in Bei'an at that time."
After hearing this, the students suddenly became excited: "Really? Then you have to try it!"
Someone asked: "What kind of barbecue are the people participating in the evaluation?"
Regarding this matter, the waiter is very knowledgeable.
When the review was first completed, many customers came here and ordered these dishes.
The waiter introduced several barbecue dishes one by one.
The others were still debating which one to take. The tall boy glanced at Wang Jinrui, who was sitting cowering next to him, and winked at his companion next to him.
The other party understood it and said, "Okay, there are only a few in total, come up!"
When the others heard this, they immediately became happy and applauded!
The waiter listened to their order and placed the order carefully before leaving the box.
Soon, the waiter trotted over to the back kitchen to deliver the order: "Chef, add more dishes!"
Fu Yu took the order and looked at it, "Okay!"
Added a few seafood barbecue dishes.
These young men are really good at eating!
He couldn't leave here, so he handed Zhang Jinyu the order for additional dishes and asked him to send it to the baking area, and Sun Qingning took the order.
The kitchen was very busy. Fu Yu not only had to take over orders from regular customers, but also had to take care of the existing orders on hand.
The food waiters kept going back and forth.
The waiter in charge of taking orders for the large banquet is Zhan Xin.
Zhan Xin is a new waiter who has worked in other stores before. Because he works quickly and has a good personality, he successfully became a regular employee after the internship period.
They say they are new, but they are not really new.
Room 208 is a large private room that can accommodate twelve customers.
As a result, a group of high school students came today. They crowded around and added chairs, so that a table was filled with seventeen people.
The more people there are, the more dishes are ordered.
Zhan Xin ran back and forth several times by himself, but the dish was not finished yet.
In addition to the red gum area, there is also a baking area. Even though she has long been accustomed to the busy pace of the restaurant, it is inevitable for her to complain a little as one dish after another is brought here and there.
After delivering food to the kitchen again, Zhan Xin couldn't help but complain to Fu Yu: "These guys are so good at eating, they have added more food several times! When I came here just now, I heard them BBQ added!”
Fu Yu was a little surprised: "Are you adding more? I've already ordered twenty-four dishes."
Zhan Xin sighed: "The barbecue side has added three times!"
Fu Yu said casually: "How much money does this cost! What they ordered are all our store's specialties."
Zhan Xin echoed: "Who says it's not the case! Just for those lobster and abalone dishes, I roughly calculated that it's at least more than four thousand now."
"Tsk, it's really not bad for the money!" Fu Yu said with emotion: "But there are many of them, so it's not bad if we divide the money evenly."
Zhan Xin shook his head: "It doesn't look like it. It seems like someone is treating you. These people are like big eaters. You didn't see it. The menu is placed directly on the table. If there is no food, just order it and drink the wine." few."
"Children these days are really rich!" Fu Yu was speechless when he heard this.
Just treating someone to a meal would cost thousands of dollars!
While the two were talking, another waiter came over.
"Fu Chu, 208 extra dishes!"
When Zhan Xin heard this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Look, it's started again! My legs are really worthless, just give them to me every time!"
The ordering clerk said with a smile: "You are not in vain. This table has already received four small banquet order orders, and this group of customers is quite open. Look at this order, the wing soup is over the bridge." Big abalone, rich sea sausage buns, and braised flying crabs with mashed potato in white sauce.”
"Apart from the New Year's Eve dinner, how can our store encounter such big customers?"
Zhan Xin blinked: "They really dare to eat!"
The orderer smiled and said, "No, students nowadays are not simple. This table of dishes is equivalent to two or three months of my salary!"
Fu Yu took the order and took a look at the dishes on it.
Indeed, because these hard dishes are quite expensive, customers usually only order them during the New Year's Eve dinner.
Fu Yu casually posted the order form on the kitchen wall, feeling quite happy. After all, he usually didn't have much chance to practice these dishes.
Last year, when he was rushing to celebrate the New Year, he followed Zhao Meng and watched Zhao Meng do it.
It's just that at that time, he was not as proficient in cooking operations as he is now. At that time, he was just watching the fun.
Now that he can take the spoon himself, he is quite looking forward to it.
After the vegetables in the pot were stewed, Fu Yu began to arrange the dishes.
Next to him, Zhan Xin and the ordering clerk took some time out of their busy schedule to chat a few more words.
Zhan Xin joked: "That's the way to order it. Don't you have to cry when you check out later?"
The ordering clerk waved his hand and said, "It shouldn't be so. If you dare to invite guests, you must be rich! But, they have ordered a lot of wine, so don't drink and get into trouble. They don't look very young."
Zhan Xin nodded: "That's right, I have to tell Sister Gao later not to drink down at the end. It will be a bad thing if no one pays the bill."
The ordering clerk was stunned: "Can't you?"
Zhan Xin said seriously: "It's hard to say! The store where I used to work often encountered such things. These guys don't care about that. Not to mention not paying the bill after drinking too much, sometimes they even deliberately eat Bawang. Where’s the meal? Because of this, our previous boss even called the police..."
The two were chatting animatedly. Fu Yu listened to them and ordered the workers to prepare the dishes.
