Since returning to the VIP room, Xu Zebang has been restless. On the one hand, he is worried that his old man will not cooperate in taking the medicinal diet. On the other hand, he can't help but wonder whether the medicinal diet is reliable.
The main reason is that the herbal chef is too young. Even if Yao Shi has repeatedly promised, he is always uneasy.
This is his biological father, nothing can go wrong!
Xu Zebang's chair looked like there were nails sticking out of it. Mr. Xu was very shrewd and asked calmly: "Little Yao, I just saw that this chef is not very old. Is his cooking really that good? "
Yao Shi stepped on Xu Zebang's foot under the table to remind him to hold on, and he responded with a smile: "Uncle Xu, you don't know, Xiao Fu was brought out by a famous teacher, Liu Jiacai, have you heard of it? ? His master is the successor of Liu Jia Cuisine, the famous chef Liu Yunong. He mainly learned Liu Jia Cuisine’s soup cooking, otherwise, how could he specially invite you to come over and help with the tasting! "
Mr. Xu's original attention was still on his son, but Yao Shi's attention was immediately attracted by this interruption.
"Is his master actually the descendant of Liu's cuisine?"
Mr. Xu has been a soup cook all his life, and he still knows a lot about things in the industry.
Although he himself has not done anything famous, he still yearns for and respects those famous chefs.
The Liu Family Cuisine is a well-known culinary family in the circle. It is said that the ancestor is the ancient imperial cook Mrs. Liu, and there are many ancient cooking books in the family.
Even the Shangshi private restaurant created by the Liu family supplies a lot of secret palace dishes.
Yao Shi nodded and said seriously: "Liu Yunong, the successor of Liu Jiacai's generation, is now a popular female celebrity chef in the circle. She has won many domestic and foreign awards. She only has one apprentice, Fu Yu. "
When Mr. Xu heard that Fu Yu had learned to cook Liu's cuisine, he suddenly looked surprised.
No wonder he has such attainments at such a young age. He is from a famous family!
As a chef, the most important thing is to learn from a master.
Such a well-known culinary family gives people the impression that they are unattainable.
If you can learn cooking from a descendant of such an aristocratic family, how can you not be good at cooking!
When Yao Shi said this, Mr. Xu looked a little languid because of his illness before, but now he became more energetic because of his interest.
"So that's it. I'm going to have a taste of this innovative soup later."
Yao Shi coaxed Mr. Xu to talk about the innovative banquets in the store. When the old man wasn't paying attention, he turned to Xu Zebang and winked, telling him to calm down.
Xu Zebang was careless and confused, and he was usually a very smart person. He had not noticed it before, but now when Yao Shi reminded him, he realized it belatedly. He hurriedly smiled and cooperated to fool his old man.
While the three of them were talking and laughing, Xu Zebang was still thinking about the cooking of the medicinal food. From time to time, he would be distracted and glance at the door of the box to see if there was a waiter bringing the food.
Just as he was getting a little anxious waiting, he suddenly saw a familiar figure passing by the box door.
Xu Zebang's expression changed. Isn't this...Director Lin from his own unit?
Why is she here?
Thinking of this, Xu Zebang stood up quickly and told his old man and Yao Shi: "It seems that the leader of our unit is here. I'm going to say hello!"
After saying that, he hurriedly chased after him.
Xu Zebang moved quickly. When he reached the door, he saw that the person had not walked out for a long time, so he hurriedly called: "Aunt Lin!"
Lin Yu paused when he heard the sound, turned around and looked over. When he saw Xu Zebang, he was obviously stunned: "Zebang? Why are you here too!"
Xu Zebang works in the gardening department. Although Lin Yu is his immediate boss, because his mother has a good personal relationship with Xu Yu, she usually takes good care of him.
Xu Zebang sighed: "My dad has not been in good health these days. He wanted to make some custom-made medicinal meals, so he came over."
Lin Yu was stunned and suddenly said: "You also came here to find Fu Chu to customize herbal meals?"
Xu Zebang was also stunned: "Yes, I am looking for Fu...Fu Yu."
Lin Yu suddenly smiled: "That's what I'm looking for! By the way, have you seen Chef Fu? I just went to the front hall and the waiter said he is on the first floor."
Xu Zebang said hurriedly: "He went to the kitchen to make medicinal food...for my dad."
While the two were talking, Li Xintong got the news and hurriedly came over: "Ms. Lin, Fu Chu has gone to customize the medicinal diet. Why don't you go to the lounge and wait for him?"
When Lin Yu heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Oh, that's alright. If Chef Fu is free, you must let me know."
Li Xintong is the front office manager of the store and is very familiar with the store's regular customers.
Although Lin Yu didn't come twice, Li Xintong was very attentive and warm because he was a custom-made customer for the medicinal meal banquet.
After all, those who can customize medicinal meal mats are either rich or noble.
Serving the high-end customers in the store well is also beneficial to these stores. After all, the higher the store's revenue, the richer their wages will be.
Li Xintong has a warm and considerate service attitude. Lin Yu has a good impression of her and her speaking attitude is also very gentle.
Li Xintong couldn't help but smile after hearing this: "Yes, Chef Fu is really busy now. There are customers who come to the store every day and want to make reservations for medicinal meals."
Lin Yu nodded and secretly rejoiced: "Fortunately, when we came here, there were still custom quotas, otherwise we would have to wait until the second half of the year."
Li Xintong smiled and invited Lin Yu to the lounge.
Lin Yu then turned to Xu Zebang and said, "By the way, is your mother here too? I'll go say hello first."
When Xu Zebang heard this, he hurriedly stopped the person and explained: "My mother didn't come here, so my father and I are here today. The main reason is that my father refused to take medicine. There was really no other way, so I thought of customizing the medicated diet. "
Lin Yu said in surprise: "Why haven't you heard your mother mention this? Your father didn't seem to have any health problems during the Chinese New Year, right?"
Xu Zebang rolled his eyes and blurted out: "No, my dad went to the hospital for treatment years ago, but he just refused to cooperate with the doctor's treatment. Later, he was introduced to me and ordered medicated meals."
Lin Yu nodded: "So that's it."
Xu Zebang was afraid that Lin Yu really went to say hello to his father. If he leaked something again, his father would notice and refuse to cooperate in taking the medicinal diet.
So he told half-truths and half-falsehoods that he had tricked the old man into customizing the medicinal diet.
When Lin Yu heard this, he smiled and said, "Why are you so filial? Since that's the case, I won't bother you. Otherwise, if your dad is so shrewd, what will happen to him again?"
These words played into Xu Zebang's hands, so he said goodbye to Lin Yu with a smile, and then turned back to the VIP room.
Xu Zebang is not stupid. Through the chat between Lin Yu and the front office manager... he seems to have learned something unusual!
】
Is it difficult to make a reservation for this...little chef?
Before Xu Zebang could walk back to the VIP room, his cell phone rang. It was one of his friends.
Xu Zebang quickly answered the phone.
His friends heard that he came to the music restaurant to customize medicinal meals, which was quite strange.
The main reason is that the music restaurant has just begun to vigorously promote medicinal diets, and the dissemination is not that strong yet.
The two chatted for a while, but he was still thinking about the medicinal diet, so he briefly explained and hung up the phone.
As soon as he put away his mobile phone, he saw the front office manager turning back.
Xu Zebang's heart moved and he took the initiative to greet him.
Li Xintong had just sent Lin Yu to the lounge, and was about to call a waiter to come over to entertain him. Halfway through, he met Xu Zebang.
Knowing that the other party was a distinguished guest entertained by his boss, Li Xintong hurriedly greeted with a smile: "Mr. Xu, do you need help with anything?"
Xu Zebang asked curiously: "Oh, I just heard Aunt Lin say that it's not easy to make reservations for Fu Chu's medicinal meal banquet. Is he so powerful?"
Li Xintong said with a smile: "The medicated meal banquet made by Fu Chu is indeed very effective. In front of Ms. Lin just now, I actually didn't say something. Not only are Fu Chu's medicated diet banquet not available for reservation in the first half of the year, but it's already early for the second half of the year." They are all fully booked. Mr. Xu, you have a good relationship with our boss, so you can directly find Fu Chu to customize the medicinal meal table as soon as you come here."
Xu Zebang heard Li Xintong's words implying his admiration for Fu Yu, and couldn't help but said: "Chef Fu is indeed excellent, but he is a bit too young."
When Li Xintong heard this, he immediately smiled: "What age are we in these days? Nowadays, no one evaluates others based on their age."
"That Ms. Lin just now is the vice president of Bei'an Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, and she personally recommended her to Fu Chu to customize herbal meals."
Xu Zebang suddenly blushed when he heard this!
Yao Shi took the initiative to help contact the medicated chef who introduced him, but he still disliked it. This was really not very authentic...
...
In the kitchen, Fu Yu finished plating the diced pepper chicken and handed it over to the waiter for serving.
The pharmacy has been contacted, but the temporarily ordered medicinal materials have not yet arrived.
Although eating dog meat is a local tradition in Bei'an, because Qianlima is a restaurant that specializes in large-scale banquets, it did not save it in advance and had to wait for the purchase to buy it back temporarily.
There is no loach in stock either, so these dishes cannot be cooked.
Fu Yu had to make Eucommia kidney flowers first.
This dish is included in the recipe of the music restaurant. It is not a hard-core dish among the banquet dishes. However, because of its unique taste, it is very popular among customers when making reservations for banquets.
But most people don’t know that this dish is actually a medicinal meal, which has the effects of nourishing kidney qi, clearing the bladder, eliminating stagnation, and quenching thirst.
Of course, not everyone can eat medicated food, such as this Eucommia kidney flower dish. Because the main ingredient is pork kidney, the cholesterol content is relatively high. Therefore, under normal circumstances, people with high blood lipids, such as Gu Gu, have high cholesterol. You have to eat less or not eat at all.
Eucommia ulmoides is a very wonderful medicinal material. The medicinal effect after frying is stronger than that of raw eucommia. It also has the effect of dilating blood vessels and reducing cholesterol absorption.
Combining the two, one increases and the other decreases. It is not a big deal for older people to eat it, and there is no need to worry about digestion and absorption.
However, the cooking method of ordinary Eucommia kidney flower is simple, and it is just like diced pepper chicken, which is too homely.
So Fu Yu started to think hard about the layout and styling again, and thought about it carefully.
Finally, we decided to use the cutting method of phoenix kidney to prepare Eucommia kidney.
In this way, it will not affect the taste and efficacy of the medicinal food, but also make customers feel amazing in terms of presentation. The money is indeed well spent.
Fu Yu learned how to make phoenix tail kidney flowers because he heard Ji Hong talk a lot about Hunan cooking during a group exchange activity.
At that time, Ji Hong felt that Fu Yu was very good at knife skills, so he laughed and said that using Fu Yu's technique to make their shop's specialty, spicy and sour phoenix tail waist, it would be authentic and amazing.
Because this spicy and sour phoenix tail kidney is a very special dish in traditional Hunan cuisine.
When Ji Hong mentioned this dish, he was quite emotional.
Ji Hong said that now fewer and fewer people are willing to cook traditional Hunan cuisine. Young chefs are unwilling to spend time studying, let alone work hard to practice basic skills, which has gradually caused the loss of many traditional craftsmanship.
Just like this spicy and sour phoenix tail kidney flower dish, it is rare to be able to make it authentically.
Because this dish comprehensively considers the basic skills of a chef, and the presentation is also very high-end, you can tell by looking at it that the chef who cooked it must have great cooking skills.
Moreover, because the main ingredient of this dish is pork loin, laymen may not think so. This is not a rare and precious ingredient, and you can order it in any ordinary restaurant.
Only an expert would understand and be able to promote this dish as the signature dish of his own restaurant. If he didn't have deep knowledge, how could he have such confidence?
Ji Hongneng serves as the chef of Jiweizhai. He has good cooking skills and has decades of cooking experience. He can't go wrong with dishes that even he will praise highly.
After chatting at that time, Fu Yu was particularly interested in the spicy and sour phoenix tail kidney flower, so in his spare time, he looked through the classic old flavor recipes to learn the specific cooking method of this dish.
The taste of this dish is typical of Hunan, sour, spicy, and sour. What really interests Fu Yu is the cutting method of the phoenix tail kidney.
At that time, he repeatedly simulated and practiced out of thin air many times.
There was no kidney flower to practice with, so he used potatoes instead and cut several repeatedly before mastering the specific method.
I just didn't expect that my sudden learning would come in handy.
Fu Yu wants to make Eucommia ulmoides kidney flower, and the worker has prepared the pork kidney in advance.
The pork loin dish made here at the Music Restaurant is not served as a main course. After all, the pork loin will taste very fishy when it is cold.
Therefore, they are all served to the table as free side dishes. One of the most popular side dishes is fried kidney with pickled beans.
This side dish is still delicious even if it is eaten cold, and it mainly serves the purpose of appetizing and relieving fatigue.
Customers who can tolerate the taste of pork loin can eat it on their own, and customers who don't like it will not have their normal meal affected.
