Food: I Am A Cartoonist In Totsuki

Chapter 139: Old Chef

Tong Yu returned to his hotel room after having his meal at the VIP cafeteria. As for Hiroshi Sena, he had already left long before Tong Yu had dinner.

Early the next morning, Tong Yu received a call from Bo Ji, asking him to go to the No. 2 kitchen at Tōtsuki Resort. He has already greeted the kitchen side and explained the “field study”, so he can go directly to the kitchen.

Originally, Hiroshi was going to take Tong Yu to the No. 2 kitchen in person, but an important guest from Tōtsuki came to the resort this morning, and Dojima Gin was not there. As the deputy head chef, he had to go to meet him in person.

Tong Yu also felt that it didn’t matter, and after having breakfast, he went to the second kitchen.

As a “Double Five” star place, Moon Resort receives countless guests every day, and only one kitchen will definitely be too busy.

According to Boji last night, Tōtsuki Resort has a total of five kitchens, but usually only three kitchens are in normal operation, and the remaining two kitchens are prepared to prevent a large number of guests from staying and need to provide a lot of food.

The three kitchens that are operated on weekdays are headed by three other chefs. As for Dojima Gin and Sena Hiroyuki, they only help with cooking when needed. They are more responsible for the affairs of the resort and reception. The work and cooking are basically done by the three major kitchens.

Not only are there multiple kitchens, but restaurants are also divided into several places. Of course, there is only one VIP cafeteria at present, and it is only in front of the VIP guests of Tōtsuki Resort.

Tong Yu quickly found the second kitchen at Tōtsuki Resort.

The kitchen of a five-star restaurant is not comparable to that of a one- or two-star restaurant. The kitchen area alone has exceeded the total area of ​​​​Kadozaki-style restaurant, not including the ingredients warehouse, staff lounge, dressing room, etc.

Tong Yu walked into the kitchen, glanced at the interior of the kitchen, and couldn’t help sighing in his heart. It is indeed a five-star restaurant. These kitchen equipment are all top-notch, and there are dozens of cooking stations alone. .

At this moment in the kitchen, there are more than a dozen employees in chef clothes washing and cutting ingredients, making soup, cooking, etc.

Now the members of the kitchen work are not all the employees of the No. 2 restaurant, but only a part of it, and they have crushed many star-rated restaurants in terms of scale.

The chef’s uniform is different from that of the general chef, and Tong Yu quickly found the head chef Matsumoto Hiromoto, who was in charge of the second restaurant.

Matsuhara Hiromoto, 56, is the head chef of the second restaurant at Tōtsuki Resort. He specializes in both French and Italian cuisine. He has been working at Tōtsuki Resort for 30 years.

Matsubara has a high reputation in Tōtsuki Resort. Even Dojima Gin, the head chef, has three points in front of him and is called “senior”.

According to what Bo has said, Songyuan has mature patience, so it is the best choice for him to guide Tong Yu to practice patience.

But now there is a big problem… Songyuan has a quirky temper, and will not easily teach others skills, let alone the training of cooking heart.

Bo has also reminded Tong Yu on the phone to prepare him mentally.

“Hello Matsubara-sama, I’m a student of Tōtsuki Academy, and I was introduced to you by Senior Hiroshi for a field study.

Since Song Yuan was facing Tong Yu with his back at the moment, Tong Yu couldn’t see his face clearly.

After Song Yuan heard Tong Yu’s words, he turned around.

Only then did Tong Yu see Songyuan’s appearance clearly, only to see that he had a beard, a pair of piercing eyes, and his eyebrows were clearly curved upwards.

The face is full of flesh, and there is a burn on the right cheek, giving people a vicious feeling.

This appearance makes it hard for people to believe that he is a chef, but it makes people think that he is more suitable for Jiangyang thief.

From the face alone, Tong Yu knew that this person was difficult to get along with. …

In addition, even though he was in his fifties, Songyuan didn’t look old at all, with jet-black hair and a ruddy complexion, looking like a middle-aged man in his thirties.

They are both in their 50s and 60s, but compared to Tokugawa Yihe, this Matsubara Hiromoto looks too young.

“Oh, are you the student that Boji said he wanted to come to me for an internship? Then what are you doing…

The only person who can call Hakuya “boy” at Tōtsuki Resort is Matsubara.

Songyuan looked around the kitchen with a nonchalant expression, and finally turned his gaze to the dozens of dishes that had been served on top of the washbasin not far away, and said, “Let’s do the work of washing the tableware.

Hearing this, Tong Yu’s complexion changed slightly.

At this time, the sous chef Legotay came to Songyuan and whispered: “Master chef, since it is someone who has been introduced by Bo, isn’t it inappropriate to let him wash the dishes? And he is also our Tōtsuki student, so give it to him. A corresponding job position will be better

“Ah, are you teaching me to do things?”

“I, I dare not.”

Legotay retracted what he wanted to say in an instant, he was very aware of Songyuan’s temper, and if he continued to speak, it would definitely arouse Songyuan’s thunderous anger.

At this moment, Song Yuan’s face was covered with haze, and it was even more terrifying when matched with his stern face.

“A mere student actually wants to work in my kitchen. I don’t agree with it. If it wasn’t for the sake of that kid Bo Yi, you could only sweep the floor outside the kitchen, and you wouldn’t even be able to step in. If you understand me If you mean it, just go clean the dishes honestly?” Song Yuan said to Tong Yu with a fierce look.

Tong Yu was not at all afraid of Songyuan’s terrifying expression, and said with a smile on his face: “Master Songyuan, I can only say that this is a stupid decision, you are using a crane to hang chicken feathers, and you are overqualified. Also, do you think Tōtsuki will get me through the fieldwork just by brushing the dishes?”

break.

Everyone in the kitchen breathed a sigh of relief. Tong Yu was definitely the first person who could speak to Songyuan in this tone in this kitchen for so many years.

Song Yuan’s forehead protruded and became the character “Well”, he held back his rampage and stared at Tong Yu and said: “Very well, I like a guy like you with a backbone, now I will give you a chance. , Have you seen the equipment and facilities in the kitchen?”

“See, so what?”

“Hehe, I allow you to use these kitchen equipment to make a cooking work that you are most proud of. If you do it to my satisfaction, I will give you the job of applause.”

“It’s that simple?”

“Simple?”

Song Yuan sneered a few times: “If you don’t do it well and waste my precious time, do you know the consequences?”

“You know, dropping out of school is even losing the qualification to be a chef, right? But I can cook a lot of dishes. If you don’t ask for a theme, it will be difficult for me to choose.”

“You kid…

Songyuan sneered without anger, pointed to a piece of pork belly on the cutting board in front of him and said: “I’ll use this as the main ingredient to make a dish, but the morning work is about to start, you only have 30 minutes of cooking time.
