Chapter 626: The Problem at Front
Facing Zhou An's question, Wang Guoxing showed a modest smile, "I know that now you bosses, ask what kind of dishes we are good at, and generally ask which of the eight major cuisines, hehe, in fact...... I started my apprenticeship with my uncle when I was a teenager, well, at that time, my uncle was cooking a big pot of dishes in our local township government, and then I became a teacher, and basically I also cooked in our local small restaurant.
Well, I don't want to hide this, I think I should tell the truth.
A few years ago, Boss Zhao here found me, saying that he wanted to invite me to come over to cook farmhouse dishes for him, and the salary was okay, then Boss Zhao I knew before, so I came over, hehe, so I will also make a farmhouse dish, you really want me to make those good-looking fancy dishes, I won't, that's why, so now the chefs here are basically looking for another way, but I haven't found a new job for a while, so I rely on people to get old, Thick-skinned, come here and ask if you new bosses still need a wild road chef like me?"
Wang Guoxing's words were a bit too modest, and at first glance, it seems that people are extremely honest.
But Zhou An didn't believe it, people like Wang Guoxing looked honest and listened honestly, but in fact he was a cunning master, he had seen a lot before.
Of course, Zhou An still said the scene, and his attitude was very polite, "Okay! Master Wang, you are serious, looking for a job, you can't say whether you are thick-skinned or not, and besides, we are really short of masters who can cook peasant dishes here, I am very happy that a few of you can come! Well, it is almost time for dinner, and we haven't had dinner yet, so you shouldn't have either, right? Do you think you can trouble a few of you to go to the kitchen and get us a few dishes now? It should be our dinner, and it should be a simple taste of the dishes, what do you think?"
"Medium! This must be fine!"
Wang Guoxing immediately got up, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to move.
The young man and the two young men who came with him also got up at once, and said yes.
So, the four of them went to the kitchen to cook.
Zhou An sat there drinking tea, and Shen Jinke and Yao Jing walked over with a smile, sitting on either side of him.
Yao Jing was curious: "Don't you have to go in and see what they do?
Zhou An shook his head slightly, "What's so good-looking, no matter what they do, wait for the dishes they cook, let's taste them, and naturally we will know how their skills are, if you don't recruit chefs like this, how can you recruit them?"
"That's ......," Yao Jing nodded slightly.
Shen Jinke glanced at the kitchen, lowered his voice and asked Zhou An, "How much salary are you going to give them?"
"Look at their craftsmanship! The dishes are well cooked, the wages are easy to say, and the dishes are average......
After a pause, Zhou An smiled slightly wryly, "It's hard to find a chef who can cook peasant dishes, and we don't have a suitable candidate at hand now, so even if the master surnamed Wang just now has average skills, we can only make do with it for the time being, and at most the salary will be lower." ”
Hearing Zhou An say this, Shen Jinke and Yao Jing both frowned.
Yao Jing: "Is it so difficult to find a chef who cooks peasant dishes now?"
Shen Jinke also asked: "Anzi, you are also from the countryside, we have all tasted your cooking skills, your skills are very good, can you make this peasant dish yourself?"
Yao Jing's eyes lit up, and her voice was raised, "That's right, this peasant dish shouldn't be difficult to cook, right?"
Facing the expectant eyes of these two people, Zhou An was quite helpless.
Talking to laymen about these problems is tired.
"Have you ever heard a word?"
Yao Jing was puzzled: "What?"
Zhou An: "The threshold is inside the door!"
"Huh, what do you mean?" Yao Jing didn't understand.
Shen Jinke frowned, but thoughtfully, as if he understood a little, and asked Zhou An hesitantly, "What do you mean...... It's easy to get started with farm food, but it's easy to learn but hard to master.
Zhou An gave him an approving look and bowed his head: "That's the truth!" Basically everyone has eaten farm food, and most of the people who can cook can also cook a little, but because most people have eaten farm food, and even make it themselves, it is very difficult to open a restaurant with farm food to make money!
If there is no characteristic, not delicious enough, and the taste cannot make most of the guests feel very good, there will basically be no repeat customers, because ordinary farm dishes, guests can make them at home, why come to us?
If you want to make farmhouse dishes particularly delicious, in addition to the quality of ingredients, you also have high requirements for the master's skills.
You just asked me if I could cook farmhouse food......
Zhou An smiled, "Of course I know some, just like Brother Shen, you just said, I am from the countryside, how can I not have farm food?"
But there are some that can't be bragged about, I'm from a rural area, and I'm a chef, so I dare to say that my farm food is definitely better than what ordinary people make, but to say that my farm food is very good?"
Zhou An smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I don't dare to say that!"
"This ......" Yao Jing frowned.
Shen Jinke also sighed helplessly.
Yao Jing asked Zhou An with a bitter face, "Then what should I do? In case the master surnamed Wang just now has average skills, where can we find a farmer chef with particularly good skills?" or ...... Let's go find the best master of Zhuang Weiyuan before, and see if we can invite someone back, or what else will we do?"
"That's a solution!"
Shen Jinke nodded in agreement.
Zhou An smiled and didn't object, he originally thought so in his heart.
But he didn't have much hope in his heart, after all, the previous chef and chef of Zhuang Weiyuan, except for Wang Guoxing just now, seemed to have taken the initiative to resign.
And the chefs who voluntarily quit their jobs have basically already found a good home.
has already found a chef for the next family, it is difficult to invite them back, not to mention, Zhao Sanshan and Zhao Wuyue collapsed, Zhao Sanshan's wife Gong Yinping can't keep those chefs and chefs, how much hope do they, the new owners of Zhuangweiyuan, hope to let those people come back?
People don't even sell the face of Zhao Sanshan's wife.
