Chapter 359: Guest
Director Elinda hurried through the entrance of the outer hall and into the back kitchen. Although her expression was very calm and not panicked, the tightness under her eyebrows showed that she was a little anxious. Seemingly, something happened at the front desk.
"Barna, there's a guest in the front hall ordering now. There were three people at the table, and each ordered a main course. Please prepare it immediately and make it right away. Elinda stood in front of Barna and handed Barna an à la carte menu.
This is the first time Barna has officially taken over the main course. Entrusted by the shopkeeper and so trusted, he didn't dare to be careless, so he couldn't help but ask Director Elinda again: "Director Elinda, do the guests have any taste preferences, is there anything to pay attention to?"
"Hmm......" In response to Barna's question, Director Elinda said embarrassedly, "I was in too much of a hurry when I came, and I didn't ask about this ......"
"Ahh......h Both from other chefs and from his previous experience has taught him that one of the most important steps in a dish is to ask the guests about their tastes.
"Well, Barna, you prepare the ingredients for these dishes with the other chefs first, and I'll go over and ask them. "She's a hotel materials manager, not a waitress, and some waiters really don't know a little bit about the process.
"Hmm!" Barna nodded.
Before leaving, Director Elinda instructed the girl next to her, "By the way, Leah, you can take some cold saucers and tea, and come with me." It can relieve the tension of time a little. "It's a delaying tactic. Bringing out these cold saucers or tea before serving is the preferred way to pass the waiting time. Not only are they easy to make, they are easy to put in and out, and they are not easy to deteriorate and cool when placed.
Leah put the prepared dishes and quilts into the tray. Director Eliinda walked out briskly.
The direction that Director Eliinda led was the lobby on the first floor. She seemed to be causing trouble in the back kitchen, and she couldn't help but explain as she walked, "I'm sorry that I suddenly gave you such a task." ”
"Actually, we originally followed the process, and it was not me who managed the materials. Instead, it should be the waiter who goes to greet him. However, when one of the guests entered, he insisted on carrying his weapon and entering...... Although after some persuasion, the other party gave up this request. But there was an additional requirement that someone take care of his weapons, and that was that they couldn't get out of the kitchen to report the bill. At that time, I happened to be passing by, and I felt that I couldn't pull the manpower quickly, so I went up to help, so as not to snub the three guests...... Moreover, they were caught off guard and ordered three main dishes, which really caused a lot of confusion......
Eliinda's supervisor is material management, and it is not her job to receive guests. Besides, at this time, it's better to order three main dishes in a row!
The main course is an important special item in Fairwin, and it is listed at the front of the menu, and it is the most important content, with hundreds of dishes, and the total number of main courses is less than fifteen! They are also the only dishes that Fairwin designates and must be made by the chef! And the main dishes must be made by the chef because each of these main dishes is very time-consuming and energy-consuming.
If you don't understand the significance of ordering three dishes, then in a nutshell: guests who come to Fairwin, a large table of a dozen people, usually only order one!
And according to the direction led by Director Eliinda, the location used by these people was not a box, but a meeting room on the first floor! The large front hall on the first floor! Leah immediately understood the horror. Originally, as an individual customer, it was an idle area for timely use and dining, and there was no complicated isolation zone as an obstacle, and naturally there was no need to make a reservation. And they, in this crowded front hall, are only three people, a small table, and three main dishes are ordered, which shows how many huge fluctuations will be transmitted.
Director Elinda knew the urgency of this matter, so she hurried over, and didn't even have time to go to other kitchens to ask for a chef and waiter, and went straight to the back kitchen to inform the urgency of the task. And the things that the waiter should know, I forgot to ask. It's no wonder that Director Elinda has been in Fairwyn for so long, and she has taken up important positions but can't figure out the process. In fact, if you are an ordinary waiter, you may have already messed up when you hear that three guests are going to order three main dishes in the front hall.
Entering the front hall, the people here are still quite lively, and it seems that more than half of them are seated at the moment. Compared to the private rooms with different capacity, there are basically small tables with a napkin and a small transparent vase in the center. Here, up to four people can sit at each table.
Although Fairwin's entry base is high, it is a fourth-order hotel after all, and it is an important part of attracting guests in terms of decoration, food, service, environment and other aspects. In addition to the temporary residents, there are also guests who will be attracted to the Fairwin Hotel to come in for a party and a meal.
In the front hall, there was a table of guests who were quite conspicuous, so that Leah could almost tell at a glance that they must be the guests who ordered three main dishes. Why do you say that? Because there are exactly three people at this table. And these three people are really different from the guests around them, and they are very eye-catching.
Two men and one woman are sitting in their seats.
One of them is a middle-aged man, with a straight waist and a very formal outfit, a single-color shirt that is close to the hips, trousers that are not wide or tight, no exaggerated decorations, and are spotless. He has very simple hair and sharp eyes. Although his head and eyes did not move, he could feel that he was scanning his surroundings very sharply. He exudes an unapproachable aura of danger all over his body, and he looks like a person who can't be offended at will.
And on his side, it is even more eye-catching. The massive body, which looked like it was nearly two meters tall, stood tall in the entire antechamber. His thick arms lay on the table, enveloping most of the table over his chest. His strong, muscular legs, like a hill, pressed against the chair behind him, completely filling all of its sitting-in areas. He stood up and took two steps, perhaps causing a tremor in the earth.
He was silent, the pair of small eyes under his huge head just staring at the flower in the only vase on the table.
"Gee, how long will it take to get the food? I'm going to finish eating, and I'm thinking I'm going to go out and buy some beautiful crystals to play with. At the table, the only woman spoke. Even if she spoke to the female *** member on the side, her tone was quite charming.
The waiter on the side suddenly turned rosy.
As the only woman at the table, she was no less eye-catching than the two men around her. She sat sideways in a chair, one hand resting on her thigh in a short skirt, the other resting on the back of the chair, her fingers playing with the flashy accessories on her clothes, and her eyes looked sequely at the person in front of her. Her clothes are more revealing, but her figure is close to her clothes, which is quite charming. The casual and casual swinging poses exude infinite allure.
Director Elinda didn't seem to react in any way, just stood on the edge of the table with her head bowed slightly, and explained to them, "I'm really sorry, please wait a little longer." Because, the main course is our Fillwin priority. It takes quite a while to make them, and of course, several of our chefs are already preparing them for you. As she spoke, the waiter on the side also took the opportunity to put a few dishes on the tray on the table.
The main course is not something that can be served with a few casual rums.
"Shall we wait an hour, or two hours, or an afternoon?" asked the seductive woman again.
"In about half an hour, we will be able to serve your first main course. Director Eliinda continued, "Guest, I'm really sorry to keep you waiting. Since all of our dishes are not left behind every day, it takes some time to prepare after ordering. If you want to pass the time, there are some entertainment facilities in Fairwin that you can spend some time back in. ”
"I'm not interested in going anywhere else in Fairwin, I just want to finish this meal as soon as possible. The bewitching woman smiled and didn't get up, but then casually mentioned: "You said it would only take half an hour to serve?" But I just looked at the menu, and there is a dish that says that it will be simmered for four hours on a slow fire, and the juice will be reduced on high heat. I don't know what the actual time is? Oh! If I were to eat here for four hours, I would rather not eat. ”
Faced with the question, Elinda was obviously not flustered: "Guests, the dishes will be delivered in an orderly manner, and you will not be allowed to eat here for four hours." If you are asked to bend down for four hours, you will not be able to sit still even with the best stool and the most comfortable environment. ”
"Hey~" Eliinda's answer made the bewitching woman look a little curious, her body bent slightly, leaned towards her, and said, "I remember, you are the material manager here." I can't see it, but I'm still a little capable, and I look much more reliable than the waiter leader outside. But don't you explain to me first why I don't have to wait four hours?"
Director Eliinda was stunned, but did not hesitate much, and continued: "Because some time-consuming dishes will be prepared in advance. They will be cooked and roasted according to a certain time pattern, and other time-consuming preparation steps will be carried out. When the customer orders, take out the dishes that arrive at the time and prepare them again. ”
The enchanting woman stretched her waist and her demeanor was infinite: "It seems that I am lonely and unheard." Well...... After waiting so much, I felt a little thirsty, and I didn't want to speak. You go pour me a glass of ice water. I'll talk to you again when I get back. ”
The waiter on the side was about to take a step, but the bewitching woman immediately stopped: "This lovely waitress, what are you doing when you go? It's the one in front of me, and it's very interesting to talk about material management. ”
The waiter paused, then stood back in embarrassment. As for Director Eliinda, she didn't feel anything about the arrangement of the guests, maybe she was more familiar, right?
But just as she was about to set off to prepare, the seductive woman continued: "By the way, by the way, my glass of ice water needs to be filled with a spherical ice cube. At the same time, add three spoons of fine powder and granulated sugar to the water, and on this basis, add two spoons of clotted milk fat. ”
"In addition to the ingredients, there is also a requirement to be placed in the front, ice cubes, fine sugar and milk fat, all of which must be freshly made, ground and beaten, and I am not used to eating things that have been left out for a while...... I forgot to ask, your Fairwin is a fourth-order hotel, you should be able to meet these requirements, right?"
Hear the request of a seductive woman. Director Eliinda suddenly felt that things had become complicated, and although her face did not change, her body couldn't help but tense up a little. These three things, even ice cubes, are all fine materials, and there are no such things in the mixed style back kitchen. You have to go to another special pastry restaurant to get it. But this back-and-forth step was already time-consuming, let alone freshly made!She couldn't help but pull Leah's clothes that were hiding behind her, ready to slip away.
She was the only one present who knew about the little question that had not yet asked about the taste. And she is also a waitress in the kitchen after the shuttle, so she can only be left behind.
And for the guests, no matter how complicated they are. Director Eliinda could only nod her head and comply.
"Don't make me wait too long~" The seductive woman moved her gaze from Eliinda's hurried back to the waiter in front of her.
