The National Celebrity Chef Cooking Skills Competition is an event held every year.
With the purpose of "bringing together delicious dishes from famous chefs and savoring the essence of Chinese cuisine", the competition aims to showcase the outstanding dishes of contemporary cooking through the competition of high-skilled chefs across the country.
Seeing that Fu Yu had read the information, Yao Shi continued: "In this competition, each qualified hotel can send one contestant to participate in the provincial competition first, and the top three in the province will represent the province in the national competition. The time officially starts on March 4th and 5th.”
"There are three games in total, and a winner will be selected from each game. These three will then represent our province in Long Giang to participate in the national competition."
"The national competition will be held on March 10th and 11th."
"A few days ago, when the province was tallying up the list of contestants, I already registered it for you. You are participating on behalf of our Chollima."
When Fu Yu looked at the competition details before, he only looked at the general process of the competition and really didn't pay attention to the time.
If the competition is on March 4th or 5th, there will be less than half a month left.
Time is a bit tight, and I don’t know if I can develop two more advanced personal skills during the period before the game.
It's definitely not possible to take chances. It seems that I have to ask my master Liu Yunong for help to see if there are any key cooking skills. I can teach them in advance and open a back door for myself. Come on!
And I have to seize the time to read more classic recipes and special family banquet recipes. Whether it is the cooking of the dishes or the creativity of the presentation, I need to improve and understand them.
Yao Shi said: "During this period, I will explain to Chef Zhao that I will give you the order form for the special dishes in the store first to cook. If you cook more, you will be more proficient."
Fu Yu nodded: "Thank you Chef Yao!"
Yao Shi waved his hand and smiled: "You don't have to feel any pressure in this competition. You just go there to experience the atmosphere of the competition, observe and learn other people's cooking skills, mainly to see the world and broaden your horizons."
"It's only been a while since you became a regular employee, and you haven't been able to truly cook independently for less than a year. Although you are indeed very talented, it takes time to improve your cooking skills, so this time, just treat it as an exercise. opportunities. If possible, of course, we still have to strive to enter the national competition and go out of the province to have a look!"
"We have many very good chefs in China. If we have the opportunity to go out and communicate more, observe and learn from each other, we will definitely benefit a lot in terms of cooking skills."
Fu Yu nodded, thoughtfully: "Chef Yao, don't worry, I will do my best."
Yao Shi smiled, suddenly remembered something, and said: "Actually, personal level is one thing when participating in the competition. Luck is also very important on the other hand. After all, they are all divided games by drawing lots. If you meet a big player like Fucheng Chun from the provincial capital, Chef Du Yingchun, then basically he can only stop at the provincial competition."
Fu Yu was stunned. This was the second time he heard someone mention the name Du Yingchun. Fucheng Chun's senior master?
When Zhao Meng mentioned this person before, he had a look of admiration and admiration on his face.
Is the old man really that powerful?
After finishing his instructions, Yao Shi waited for Fu Yu to fill out the registration form and couldn't help but said: "Fu Yu, don't you have to go to your master's place every night to learn cooking? When you go there today, tell your master Just tell her and ask her to give you some time to work on it, and you can make some improvements."
Fu Yu nodded: "Okay, Chef Yao."
Otherwise, all heroes think alike!
He and Yao Shi thought about this together.
If he can get special training from Liu Yunong, I believe he will be able to improve his cooking skills very quickly.
Back in the kitchen, it was the peak time for customers to come in to dine. Fu Yu was busy cooking and cooking while thinking about what kind of birthday gift to give Liu Yuqing. This one gave him the most headache and was the most concerning. things.
When choosing a gift, it must be moderately priced, truly loved by Liu Yuqing, and preferably have some commemorative value.
This is really confusing!
For Yu, it was simply more embarrassing than cooking and ordering a large banquet.
During the lunch break in the afternoon, Sun Qingning squeezed in next to Fu Yu and helped her with some advice: "Why don't you buy her a bag? Let me tell you, for women, this bag is like a panacea, a 'bag' cures the disease." All diseases, a bag that suits her will be able to keep you calm for at least three months."
Fu Yu thinks this is a good idea. Almost all women like bags!
But he doesn’t understand designer bags either!
After eating, Fu Yu held his mobile phone and took a closer look at the styles and prices of various popular bags.
As a result, after seeing this, I suddenly felt difficult to breathe and wanted to go outside to breathe some haze!
This popular brand-name bag can buy a nice car!
Fu Yu specifically checked his account balance. If he didn't buy a car, he could buy a good package for Liu Yuqing, but what about the car?
Buy a car or a bag?
What an embarrassing choice!
Fu Yu was a little absent-minded throughout the afternoon because he was thinking about the gift.
When he was taking orders in the evening, the order clerk came over to deliver the orders. Seeing his appearance, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Chef Fu, what's wrong with you? You look at him with a sad face!"
Fu Yu smiled and said: "It's nothing. The business in the store is good today. The order volume you received is much larger than at noon."
The more customers ordering, the higher the ordering staff's promotion.
Hearing this, the order clerk said with a smile: "Customers entered the store early tonight."
Fu Yu took the order, glanced at it casually, and was suddenly stunned.
Didn’t I just take this order?
Fu Yu asked in surprise: "Didn't you place the wrong order? The dishes on your order are exactly the same as the one that was sent before."
The waiter was stunned when he heard this: "No way! This is what I just served!"
Afraid that he had seen it wrong, Fu Yu casually pulled down the order form that had been posted on the kitchen wall and compared the two.
Eight dishes, one soup and two main dishes are exactly the same order.
Oh, one thing is different. This new ordering list has an additional note: Do not add chili pepper to all dishes.
Fu Yu handed over the two ordering orders: "The dishes are all the same, but you specifically noted the taste on this order. It shouldn't be the same customer."
The ordering clerk looked at it carefully and looked surprised: "Hey, what a coincidence?"
Seeing this, Fu Yu thought it was just a coincidence, so he smiled and said: "It's just that I placed the wrong order, then I'll cook normally here."
Although there are additional notes, this kind of thing is too coincidental. There is no real problem, right?
Thinking of this, the order clerk was a little unsure: "Fu Chu, why don't I go back and ask. Just wait for me here for a while. I'll go back quickly."
Fu Yu nodded: "Okay, then go ahead and ask."
Worried that it would affect the food served in the kitchen, the orderer trotted away and quickly came back.
"Fu Chef, let me ask clearly!" The ordering clerk said with a gossipy expression on his face: "These two orders were ordered by a female customer. The one I took was accompanied by a mother and daughter. , the old lady looks to be in her fifties, and her daughter must be in her early thirties, and the order in front came first, and the people traveling with her were two young men and a young girl."
After Fu Yu heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
They were all treated by one person, so why did they deliberately separate them?
He thought in his mind and asked out loud.
The orderer said: "When I was ordering with me just now, I clearly heard the female customer calling the tall young man husband. But when the acting sister went in to deliver tea, she heard the old lady's daughter calling the female customer. Sister-in-law. The old lady’s daughter looks much older than the young man.”
The amount of information in this sentence is quite a lot!
Is this because the mother-in-law and sister-in-law are arranged to have dinner together, and then she secretly entertains her little boyfriend at another place?
After understanding the situation, Fu Yu raised his eyebrows: "How can it still be done like this?"
The ordering clerk glanced at Fu Yu and said meaningfully: "The female customer is very beautiful and looks very young!"
Fu Yu sighed, either he was getting divorced, or he was giving his husband a hat!
People nowadays have very weak moral concepts. The better their conditions are, the greater the temptation they face.
Fu Yu was still debating whether to give Liu Yuqing a brand-name bag, but he shouldn't let Liu Yuqing give him a hat.
After the waiter finished gossiping, he was afraid of delaying his work and said to Fu Yu: "Fu Chef, just cook normally. I'll go back first."
Fu Yu nodded and hummed.
Instruct Zhang Jinyu to prepare the dishes and prepare to start cooking.
Both tables ordered the same food, which made it much easier to hold the spoons.
Fu Yu served dishes one after another, and soon other orders were sent to the kitchen.
When you are really busy, you no longer care about gossiping about the things before.
As a result, he had just arranged the order of serving several orders. At this time, a waiter trotted into the back kitchen.
"Fu Chu, the customers in box 205 requested that the dishes be removed and the dishes re-cooked."
After Fu Yu heard this, he stopped caring about the work at hand and asked in surprise: "Returning the dishes to the whole table?"
He asked, and hurriedly looked through the order sheets on the kitchen wall, and he knew this pair.
Box 205 is the seat where the same customer ordered from Box 107.
However, he was cooking according to the dishes on the order list, so why did he suddenly have to cancel the entire meal?
The waiter said with a worried look on his face: "Chef Fu, the customer said that when ordering their meal, they made a special note not to add chili peppers. As a result, the dishes on the table were all spicy!"
After Fu Yu heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
He hurriedly took a careful look at the note requirements for boxes 205 and 107.
That’s right!
There is no note in box 205 and the cooking is normal. There is a separate note in box 107, which requires no chili pepper.
If he hadn't confirmed it with the ordering clerk before, Fu Yu would definitely not be so confident now.
Fu Yu couldn't help but ask: "Has Manager Gao gone to deal with it?"
The waiter immediately shook his head: "Manager Gao is off today and is under the supervision of Manager Jia. I just called Manager Jia, but no one answered. I went to the office area again and said that the financial department had to file taxes at the end of the month. Manager Jia was with me. I went to the tax bureau and I haven’t come back yet.”
"Sister Yu Xuan is in charge of box 205. She asked me to come to you and said that the order form shows that there is no comment requirement, but the customer insists on saying that there is, and now she is making a fuss about withdrawing the entire table. She wants you to come and take a look. Can you help me solve it?"
Generally, when customers are dissatisfied with the dishes, the front office manager is responsible for handling it. If the problem cannot be solved, it will be reported back to the back kitchen, where Gu Yunwu and Zhao Meng will step in to help adjust.
However, when it comes to Zhao Meng's affairs, everyone is basically more willing to approach Fu Yu.
The main reason is that Fu Yu has a quick mind and a good personality. He is very reliable to solve problems when he comes to them.
Unlike Zhao Meng who has a bad temper, even if he helps to resolve the matter, in the end he will criticize the matter when it needs to be criticized and report when it needs to be reported, and refuses to settle the matter at all.
This person is too principled, which is definitely a good thing for store management, but it is too stressful for the people around him.
It just so happened that Fu Yu had no dishes on hand to cook in a hurry, so he asked Zhang Jinyu to keep an eye on the steamer and said hello to Zhao Meng. Fu Yu then followed the waiter to the front hall.
Zhao Meng now has a hands-off attitude towards these matters.
Although Fu Yu lacks experience in this area, he is more clever, reacts quickly on the spot, and can solve ordinary things very well.
Hearing that there was nothing wrong with the notes on the order form and that Fu Yu didn't cook the wrong dishes, Zhao Meng was very relieved to let him handle it.
Fu Yu and the waiter talked about this matter while walking.
The waiter was really puzzled. The main thing was that the two ordering orders had been verified by the ordering clerk. It was confirmed that one of them had a note that no chili peppers were added, and that it was in box 107, and box 205 meant normal cooking.
The ordering clerk did not record the error. After all, they were two separate customers.
But the customer said the dish was wrong!
Fu Yu frowned slightly as he listened to the waiter's words!
What exactly is going on?
The service at the front office of Qianlima is still very good. From customer complaint to handling, including finding the leader and understanding the situation, it takes less than ten minutes.
When Fu Yu followed the waiter to box 205, he saw a mother-in-law and a woman who looked about 30 years old, sitting at the dining table and talking quietly.
I heard that the chef from the store came over, and my mother-in-law said with a dissatisfied look on her face: "When we ordered the meal, we specifically told the waiter that there should be no chili peppers on this table. Look at the results, the dishes on the table are almost They all have chili peppers, don’t you read the notes when cooking?”
Fu Yu couldn't help but ask: "Is the customer who ordered the food there? Is there any misunderstanding? The order form received by the kitchen has no special markings."
The mother-in-law immediately shook her head: "My daughter-in-law went to the bathroom and hasn't come back yet. She is pregnant. I specifically told the waiter when I ordered the meal, and she personally agreed to make a note of it!"
