Chapter 272: 28 dishes, professional matching
In February, the end of the year is approaching.
The streets and alleys of Jingzhou City have begun to have the atmosphere of the upcoming Chinese New Year, and major supermarkets have also started Spring Festival activities.
The New Year’s Eve dinner has always been the most important meal for the Chinese people!
Especially in central and southern cities in China, every household has to put more than ten or twenty dishes on the table during the Spring Festival, so that except for the Spring Festival day, the first six days of the New Year are basically spent on eating up leftovers.
Fortunately, people born in the 1990s are gradually becoming the backbone of the family. After this group of young people grow up, they will try to save trouble when it comes to the cumbersome New Year’s Eve dinner.
Therefore, ordering meals out has become the only choice for many families.
The whole family gathers together, chooses a restaurant with beautiful environment and delicious food, and has a delicious New Year's Eve dinner. They don't have to prepare so many dishes by themselves, nor do they have to clean up slowly after eating. It saves time and is convenient. The most important thing is that it tastes good!
Look, Cai Sirong, who is not too busy today, is now arranging reservations for the New Year's Eve dinner. Although there is still less than a month before the New Year, if it is a few days later, almost all the restaurants will be fully booked.
"Rongrong, didn't you have several meals with Mr. Su from Delicious? You also interviewed him. Why don't you book a table for us from Delicious? We want one on the 19th floor!"
An elder in the family said with a smile.
Cai Sirong's grandmother also said, "Yes, this time your second grandfather and third grandfather are all going back to Jingzhou to celebrate the New Year. Our whole family can finally get together, so let's go to Delicious! We won't go anywhere else!"
Cai Sirong was very ashamed.
I thought that it was hard to get a table for the delicious New Year's Eve dinner with famous dishes, but you guys are still thinking of preparing the New Year's Eve dinner on the 19th floor.
Not to mention a small reporter like me, even the secretary of Jingzhou City may not have this face!
Moreover, Cai Sirong knew one more thing. She said helplessly, "Grandma, you don't know yet, do you? Boss Su of Delicious has been busy preparing for the state banquet these days! You know what a state banquet is? People from many countries all over the world will come and have dinner at Delicious. How can they have time to prepare New Year's Eve dinner for us!"
Several elderly people in the family, as well as Cai Sirong's parents, suddenly looked at her in shock.
Especially Cai Sirong's father, "What the hell? Are you saying that Delicious is preparing a state banquet recently? When is it? How come I don't know?"
Cai Sirong rolled her eyes at her father and said, "It will probably be on the news soon. It will be in the next few days!"
"If that's the case, then it's really hard to order this New Year's Eve dinner. Then you can ask through your connections if you can order some famous dishes. Most of the elderly at home can't eat spicy food, so we can just order Huaiyang and Shandong cuisine!"
Cai Sirong's father is also a veteran media person. He has been to the famous cuisine restaurant several times. Not only is the environment there beautiful, but the food is also really delicious.
With his level, at least there is no flaw to be found. He has treated guests to several meals before and the guests all said that the food was delicious. Although the price was a bit expensive, everyone was relieved when they heard that the state banquet master was cooking.
Worth the price!
Just as the family was happily chatting about which of the delicious dishes was the best, the Jingzhou City Evening News began at 7:40.
Because Cai Sirong works at a TV station and her father is also a veteran media person, the whole family pays more attention to local TV programs.
"Good evening, audience friends, welcome to watch the Jingzhou City News Network. Today's main programs include"
"."
"According to our station, on the 13th, the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, senior executives will bring ambassadors from countries including Britain and France to hold an international food exchange event at the Delicious Company in the city's development zone. At that time, the city's development zone, Jingzhou Expressway and Beijing section will be under full martial law. Citizens are requested to make travel preparations in advance."
"It is reported that the organizer of this event is the Delicious Catering Company of Jingzhou Development Zone, the co-organizer is the service team of the State Guesthouse, the chef who made the food is the person in charge of the Delicious Company, and the team members are"
We were just talking about going to the 19th floor of Delicious for the New Year's Eve dinner, and the news started reporting this matter.
The whole family was stunned.
However, this was just a briefing. The host finished talking about this matter in less than three minutes. Its main purpose was to inform citizens to make travel plans during those days to avoid delays.
"No. Are you serious?"
"Is there still a holiday?"
Everyone in the room looked at each other, and suddenly there was a very unreal feeling.
Because Jingzhou has always been a city that outsiders have never even heard of. In such a city, suddenly so many people from different countries come to organize a food exchange event.
This sounds outrageous!
The most outrageous thing is that Cai Sirong's father asked: "Do we have any delicious food in Jingzhou?"
Cai Sirong rolled her eyes at him, "Dad! Open your mind! We are not sharing the delicacies of Jingzhou, we are sharing the delicacies of our entire country!"
After hearing these words, the family remained silent for a long time.
After a moment, the old lady slammed the table and said, "Book it! We must book the New Year's Eve dinner at Meishilai! If the 19th floor doesn't work, go to the 6th, 5th, 4th, 3rd floor! If that doesn't work, go to the 2nd floor! We must eat at Meishilai on New Year's Eve this year!"
Cai Sirong looked at her grandmother's excited expression, fearing that the old lady would get angry because of this matter, and hurriedly rubbed her grandmother's hands, "Okay, okay, I'll think of a way to make sure you have a delicious meal on New Year's Eve this year!"
After saying that, Cai Sirong looked melancholy. She took out her cell phone, thought about it for a while, and finally found Ling Shuyu's profile picture and clicked on the dialog box.
At the same time, such things did not only happen in their family.
A villa garden somewhere in Jingzhou City.
"Ah? New Year's Eve dinner? Hehe, how did you know my daughter is working as a driver at Delicious? Don't worry, it's no problem! It's just a New Year's Eve dinner, I'll let my daughter take care of it, don't worry!"
"What the hell? You want the kind that important people eat? Get lost! I can't help you with this!"
Boss Zhang hung up the phone and paced back and forth on his tiger-skin carpet. He thought to himself, our girl is an employee of Delicious after all. It shouldn’t be a problem for her to help set up ten or eight tables, right?
He took out his cell phone, put on a flattering smile and called Zhang Jiayi.
A village in the three northeastern provinces.
"Boss Su is a good guy! He prepared a big feast for us last time, and he secretly returned the red envelope before leaving! It's Chinese New Year, we have to support Boss Su's business, right?"
"That makes sense! I think Boss Su is a good guy. Let's go to his restaurant and book a dozen tables to help Boss Su look good!"
"By the way, Old Han, doesn't your daughter-in-law work at Boss Su's company? With this relationship, what are you afraid of? So, you can just book 20 tables, and the people in our village can share the money, and it will be like a New Year's trip to Jingzhou!"
The old man of the Han family had a ruddy complexion.
The thing he was most proud of in his life was the wedding banquet he held for his son.
Ever since my son got married, people have been stopping him and questioning him wherever he goes.
Where is the chef who prepares the banquet for your family from?
When can we invite a chef to come and prepare a full moon banquet for our child?
That big banquet cost a lot of money, didn't it? But it's worth it to be able to make it like that. Hey, can you help me contact them? My son is getting married next month!
Listening to the flattering and envious words from his fellow villagers, Old Han straightened up for the first time in his life his back, which had been bent due to farming.
He silently took out his old phone and said, "Okay, I'll call my daughter-in-law, just wait!"
He dialed the number of the person named [Shengnan] in his mobile phone.
The same thing happened in many places.
Jingzhou, delicious food, second floor.
"Fuck! What's going on? I can't answer all the calls. They're all for dinner orders!" Bai Xiaobo hung up the phone for who knows how many times and turned off his phone in frustration. "Who has time to make New Year's Eve dinner?"
Liu Sheng was also dumbfounded. "My father-in-law asked me to prepare 20 tables of New Year's Eve dinner! Where can I prepare it for him?"
"Stop talking. My dad is bragging all over the place and asked me to prepare three or five tables." Zhang Jiayi held her chin with a frown on her face, not knowing how to reply to her family.
Ling Shuyu also stood up and said, "We still have to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner, but our main task now is the banquet."
Su Chen has been away from the company for almost half a month. He said he went to Beijing to study recipes, but no one could contact him during this period.
The company was almost entirely handed over to Ling Shuyu to manage, and Ling Shuyu did not dare to make decisions on many major issues.
Especially today.
After the news was broadcast on Jingzhou TV, Delicious Company suddenly received a crazy influx of orders.
One part is the New Year’s Eve dinner, and the other part requires going to the 19th floor to customize a meal.
And these people all have one thing in common.
I don’t ask for anything good to eat, I just want to eat whatever I cook. As long as I can have food to eat, money is not a problem!
That's why this scene happened. All the employees ran to Ling Shuyu's office to report the situation.
Ling Shuyu didn't know what to do.
After all, if they refuse, there will inevitably be villains who will interfere, and Delicious cannot afford the negative public opinion in its current situation.
But if they accept it, it will be obvious that Delicious will have almost no ability to receive guests before the state banquet is completed.
At this time, Ling Shuyu was a little anxious.
"When will the boss be back? It's just a menu. Do you really need more than half a month to study it?"
She stood in front of the window, wondering how to deal with the difficult problem at hand.
I only saw a car driving towards me downstairs and stopping precisely under the building. A young man in a black suit got out of the car and took out a suitcase from the trunk.
"Boss? The boss is back?"
Zhang Jiayi stood up and said, "Why didn't he tell me in advance? I didn't even go to pick him up!"
The office, which was originally a little anxious, suddenly calmed down. Everyone almost ran towards the elevator at the same time. Even the anxiety in their hearts was relieved a lot, as if they had found a backbone in an instant.
It has to be said that everyone moved extremely quickly. Just as Su Chen waited for the elevator to open, he saw that it was packed with people.
"This is what you are."
It was just past eight in the evening, and it was not yet time for Delicious to get off work.
"Boss!" Bai Xiaobo hugged Su Chen's arm like a woman, "You're finally back! If you don't come back, something big will happen to the company!"
Su Chen gently pushed him away and said, "Talk while we walk."
The group of people returned to the elevator and went to the second floor first.
In just a few steps, Ling Shuyu had almost finished reporting on the company's current situation.
To put it bluntly, because of the news broadcast, Delicious suddenly received countless orders. If so many orders were not handled properly, it would likely leave considerable hidden dangers for the company.
Su Chen sat in Ling Shuyu's seat and drank the tea brewed by He Shuting.
"Then do it."
"How to do it?" Ling Shuyu asked.
Su Chen almost thought, "Aren't there so many empty floors? Simply decorate them and put out as many tables as possible. As for the orders, take as many as you can, but make it clear to the customers that they will have to start queuing once the floors are full. You guys do this job well."
As for how to decorate, how many to put and how to put them, these trivial matters can be decided by Ling Shuyu, and Su Chen does not need to spend too much energy.
"Boss, how are things going over there?" Liu Shengnan asked.
This is also the issue that everyone is most concerned about.
Fortunately, it is still within the business hours of the famous cuisine department, otherwise Su Chen would be surrounded by a group of state banquet chefs.
"The menu is set, there are twenty-eight dishes in total." Su Chen took another sip of tea, took a deep breath, and tried his best not to recall the horrific experiences of the past half month.
"Why twenty-eight dishes?" Ling Shuyu asked curiously.
"It corresponds to China's 23 provinces and five autonomous regions. It does not include the four municipalities and two special administrative regions, so there are 28 dishes. We have selected the more representative dishes from each province."
Hey!
Everyone in the conference room stared at each other.
It sounds like a very cool thing, but they don’t know exactly what’s so cool about it.
Only Ling Shuyu thought for a moment and said, "This is the best way to showcase the flavors of the cuisines from all regions of China. But..." She looked worried, "Can we cook so many dishes with different styles well?"
If it were at a state guesthouse, twenty-eight dishes from different provinces would mean at least twenty-eight state-banquet-level chefs would be in charge.
But at Meishilai, there is only one chef in charge: Boss Su.
Su Chen nodded, "You don't have to worry about this. Just focus on the orders at the end of the month and the beginning of the month and serve all the customers well. Someone will take care of the banquet."
Seeing that everyone was silent, Su Chen stood up and rubbed his waist, "Okay, let's talk if there is anything else. I'll rest first."
Carrying the suitcase back to the 19th floor, Su Chen fell directly onto the bed as soon as he returned to the office.
There is no place like home.
Looking back on the past half month, I had meetings almost every day.
Never ending meetings!
The meetings last from morning to night, and sometimes even continue in the early morning.
I thought it was a group of chefs sitting together to discuss what awesome and delicious dishes they should make, but after Su Chen held the meeting for a few days, he found that it was not the case at all.
The selection of these dishes is completely different from previous state banquets.
In the past, the food was meant to be as delicious as possible while not making any diner feel uncomfortable.
Now, this is still the main premise, but it must also be delicious enough, even to the point where people feel amazed after taking a bite.
That would be fine, but every dish must also showcase the characteristics and culture of Chinese cuisine.
In short, at the end of the meeting, Su Chen discovered something.
This... seems to be a perfect match for my major!
His main business is customized food, and Su Chen has no initiative in this meeting. He only needs to be responsible for one thing: making the food ready.
Those leaders and other messy people are the protagonists of the meeting. They are responsible for determining the requirements for dishes and then conveying them to Su Chen.
Su Chen then customized the dishes according to these purposes.
Su Chen, lying on the bed, just felt tired and not sleepy.
He took out his cell phone and watched short videos.
According to the agreement of the meeting, fifty-six dishes have been confirmed, two for each region, but it is still uncertain which one will be chosen.
So recently, some interesting things may happen on the Internet.
Well, after watching a lot of videos in succession, I finally found a video that is considered relevant.
Su Chen couldn't help but smile as he listened to the lines of the blogger with millions of fans in the video.
The official campaign is very quick.
Then, let the storm come even harder!
