Chapter 584

The back kitchen of the Maxima Hotel suddenly received an order from the front hall.

Ten dishes, one soup and one staple food.

The list happened to be handed to Fu Yu, and he took it over and looked at it, dumbfounded.

this dish
"Chef Zhao! Look, there's something wrong with this menu!"

Zhao Meng happened to be at the side, upon hearing this, he hurried over.

Fu Yu handed over the order list.

"There are several dishes on this list, and I have never seen them before!"

Zhao Meng stretched out his hand to take it, took a closer look, and suddenly his face changed: "Hey! This must be a regular customer in the store, this dish is quite authentic!"

Fu Yu asked curiously: "Chef Zhao, we don't have any of these dishes in our store either? Like this salted fish pancake, butterfly prawns with sea cucumber, and this crab game, there are no recipes at all!"

Zhao Meng explained: "This is an old dish in our shop more than ten years ago. Later, the shop thought that the price of the ingredients was too high. It took time and energy to cook and it couldn't be sold for the price, and there were not many customers ordering food. Slowly it was removed from the menu."

"This must be a regular customer. I guess it's either an old man who recalls the past and came here to taste the dishes of his hometown, or a young man who came back to look for his childhood."

These dishes have been off the shelf for nearly ten years, and now they can still be ordered, it must be a deep memory.

Moreover, [-]% of the customers who order food have never been to Qianlima for a meal in these years, otherwise they would not rashly order dishes that are not even in the recipe.

Zhao Meng looked at the menu carefully while talking.

When I saw the box number, I was surprised.

"Oh, it turned out to be Room 104, so it's no wonder!"

Box 104 was specially reserved by the Maxima Hotel, and it was specially used to entertain dignitaries with high status who were not convenient to show their faces.

This is probably some big leader, big boss, who wanted to taste the old taste on a whim.

Or they are preparing to entertain some important person who has returned to his hometown.

As soon as Fu Yu heard it, he understood.

It turns out that it is no wonder that the front hall allows customers to order food at will.

"I've taken all the orders, hurry up and prepare the dishes, isn't it written on it, the customer arrives at the store for dinner at 5:[-] in the evening."

It's four o'clock now, and there's still an hour and a half left.

Fu Yu agreed, and listened to Zhao Meng order the little worker to prepare the dishes.

At this time, it is not yet the peak time for customers to enter the store to eat at night, and the work in the back kitchen is not busy.

The red case started to make preparations.

A small worker over at the white case came to report: "Chef Zhao, our chef Wang asked, the staple food is salted fish pancakes, and we also make old-fashioned cornmeal pancakes, how about ten yuan?"

Zhao Meng nodded: "Well, just make the old-fashioned one. You go back and tell Chef Wang that it's ready, just send the pancakes over here, and we'll make the plate here."

The little worker in the white case agreed, turned around and ran away.

Fu Yu heard it from the side, and asked with interest: "Chef Zhao, isn't this salted fish pancake crushed with fish meat and mixed with noodles?"

Zhao Meng shook his head: "No, it is to dry the marinated sea fish, put it in the oil pan, fry it until it is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and eat it with cornmeal pancakes. It is salty and delicious, and the taste is very unique."

"Actually, this dish sold very well back then. People of the older generation are used to eating this dish, and they will miss it if they don't eat it for a few days. Young people are not very interested in such old-fashioned dishes."

Fu Yu nodded.

He doesn't like whole grains.

Like cornmeal pancakes, it’s not bad to eat a fresh one and taste two pieces, but he definitely can’t do it when he goes to a restaurant to order a dish just to eat this one.

Moreover, fried salted fish still has a fishy smell after all. In his opinion, it is not as good as stir-fried salted fish.

This order is a big deal.

Zhao Meng took the order here, and Fu Yu followed along.

Since Fu Yu's family dominated the barbecue area, Gu Yunwu secretly proposed at the weekly meeting that he hoped that the chefs in charge of the red case could also take orders together and take turns helping Fu Yu in their spare time. Let's start, when I can stand alone, I will move to the newly renovated baking area in the future, and the manpower can be allocated.

For this matter, both the boss and Fu Yu himself are very happy to see it succeed.

The work of baking is actually really busy, and it is not as easy as cooking in the red table.

Not to mention the smoke and fire, the takeaway orders are almost all big orders, calculated according to the commission, the time he takes to pick up an order here is not far behind that of Hongan's.

Moreover, the current environment in the roasting area is really rough. Fu Yu spent a whole day there without raising his head and eyes, feeling as if he had wade through oil and water, tired and dirty.

If he could really be freed, in his opinion, it would be a good thing.

As for things like grabbing orders, it's not that Fu Yutuo is big, but at his current level, in the kitchen of Maxima, he is completely under the three and above everyone.

Yao Shi's level, he definitely can't match, but Zhao Meng and Gu Yunwu, he feels that no matter how hard he tries, he can be better than blue.

The system makes people blind, and the system makes people confident!
It has always been a battle against the clock when the kitchen takes orders to cook!
Every minute and every second of time is precious.

The sooner you complete the order, the sooner you can take over the next order.

The speed of serving food can often increase the order acceptance rate in the front hall.

No one dared to relax their vigilance for the huge commission money!
The order list listed 12 courses, but it was actually [-] dishes cooked.

There are three dishes of sea bass, three different dishes in total, but the names are grouped together.

How about Yao Shi who changed the recipe at the beginning was a money-making ghost!

Customers who want to eat sea bass with one of the cooking methods have to order the other two together, and the store can add an extra profit.

There are quite a variety of dried salted fish in Qianlima, and Zhao Meng chooses salted drum-eye fish.

Fu Yu had never cooked this dish, but once he heard Zhao Meng finished, he knew it.

He has already brushed up his frying skills to an advanced level, but frying salty drum-eye fish is a piece of cake.

Fu Yu was busy frying salted fish, while Zhao Meng picked up the spicy stir-fried small kernels that he was good at, fried conch slices as a starter, and spicy crayfish took over.

While cooking, Zhao Meng talked to Fu Yu in a leisurely manner: "Do you know why salted fish pancakes are made with salted drum-eye fish?"

Fu Yu responded cooperatively: "Why?"

Zhao Meng pointed out: "The meat of drum-eye fish is fresh and tender, and there are few fish bones, so it can be cooked quickly and evenly. The fish bones are easy to remove and can be easily made into fish fillets."

"And in terms of taste, the fishy smell is not so strong, and it tastes very special when paired with the sweet taste of cornmeal pancakes."

"In our store, we sell salted fish and pancakes separately for the sake of beautiful presentation. In fact, if you eat it normally, fry the salted fish and pancakes together, it's really authentic!"
