Chapter 12 The hot pot restaurant on the street corner
Next, some people came one after another, including cashiers, dishwashers, waiters, vegetable deliverers, cooks, etc. But there were not many people in the whole restaurant, Fan Ran counted it, and added himself, there were only ten people in total.
He came to the cash register, the cash register was a slightly chubby girl, with a round face, big eyes, a small mouth, very white skin, beautiful, she was wiping the dust of the bar one, Fan Ran asked, "I'm a new vegetable heir Fan Ran." ”
She glanced up at Fan Ran: "Oh! I heard, we will have dinner in a while, and after eating, I will ask Ma Zhen (another vegetable passer) to take you to do things." ”
"Okay, thank you!"
After a while, we began to eat, and sat at two small tables, a table of five people, and on each table there was a large pot of vegetables, and there was everything in it: lotus root slices, green vegetables, potato chips, kelp, and a few slices of meat and meat......
It turned out that these were all side dishes that were not sold out of hot pot to make staff meals.
Everyone devoured it, only Yuan Yun (the cashier) ate very slowly, everyone finished eating, and she was still sitting in her seat eating.
After eating, Fan Ran followed Ma Zhen to the food area in front of the kitchen, and Ma Zhen first taught him to sort out the trays: "We come every day, first tidy up the trays, and then set them aside, and after sorting out the trays, we will prepare oil dishes and bowls and seasonings, and that's it." When the guests arrived, we served the dishes from the kitchen on trays, taking care not to go to the wrong place. Before leaving work, we have to wash the tray and put away the seasoning. ”
Fan Ran nodded and sorted out the tray with him.
The restaurant is not large, with three private rooms and fourteen tables in the hall, seven tables in each row, in two rows. In addition to the private rooms, the hall is full of bar tables and wooden benches, and the decoration of the entire hall and private rooms is very simple.
In addition to hot pot and soup pot, if guests need to stir-fry, they will also stir-fry a little.
There are three chefs and chefs, two vegetable students and Fan Ran, one cashier, two dishwashing aunts, and two waiters.
The restaurant does not have a manager, and it is managed by the room manager Duan Ruoduan, and Manager Duan is often absent, and some small things are Yuan Yun's final say.
Fan Ran was basically familiar with the situation.
More than eleven o'clock, there are guests one after another, the first day of work today, Ma Zhen did not dare to let Fan Ran serve the pot, the bottom of the hot pot was hot when it came out of the kitchen, Fan Ran came, not familiar, if you accidentally burn the guests will be in trouble.
Fan Ran served food and some spices to the guests.
At noon, there were not many guests, only seven tables, not too busy and not too tired, and the work was done quickly.
Fan Ran felt that this was a little easier than working in the guest room, when he was in the guest room of Liuyun Villa, he went from morning to afternoon work, and there was no rest in the middle. When you work in a restaurant, you will be busy for a while when there are customers, and rest when there are no customers.
After getting off work at noon, Fan Ran went to Xiao Xie's place to find her, wanting to see if she was used to working there.
On the floor, he found Xiao Xie, who was busy doing things. Since she is a skilled hand, as soon as she goes to work, the manager arranges a room for her to do. The general process is similar to that of Liuyun Villa, but the shape of the room is not the same, and Xiao Xie quickly got started.
Seeing Fan Ran coming: "Fan Ran, how are you going to work there?"
"It's okay, I'm used to it. I feel a little more relaxed than the guest room. How are you doing here?"
"I'm fine here, it's pretty easy to do. I'm busy right now, I don't have time to pay attention to you, I'm coming to you after work. ”
"When you get off work, I'm at work. Why don't you go back to Liuyun Villa first, and I'll come back to you after work. "Fan Ran's restaurant here works from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. at night. And Xiao Xie normally gets off work at six o'clock.
"It's okay, I'll come and wait for you. ”
Fan Ran stayed at Xiao Xie's place for a while, it was still early in the afternoon, and he didn't know where to go, so he returned to the restaurant, and wanted to rest on his stomach on the table in the restaurant for a while, but he didn't know that a voice came from a private room. Fan Ran could hear that it was a woman's wheezing. Fan Ran suddenly lost his sleepiness, he walked gently towards the door where the sound came, stood outside the door and listened quietly, suddenly the voice was much louder, and after a while, there was no sound again. Fan Ran heard the sound of zipping his clothes, and hurriedly walked to the outermost table in the restaurant, lying on the table, pretending to sleep.
After a while, two people came out of the private room, and Fan Ran looked through his eyes, it turned out to be the chef Tao Zeng and the waiter Mo Taoti. Motauti was thin, not tall, and looked very small, but she was really not big, I heard that she was only more than seventeen years old.
Fan Ran was still pretending to be asleep, but the two of them walked towards the door of the restaurant.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, colleagues came one after another.
Business was much better in the evening, and before it got dark, it was full. Ma Zhen and Fan Ran got busy.
In the hall, the waiter Motauti was shouting again and again, and then again: "Table 3 with soup." Why hasn't the dish come from table seven yet? What about the snacks at table 12, no longer available to guests...... The pot ...... on the eighth table"
Ma Zhen still didn't dare to let Fan Ran serve the pot, the hot pot cooked by the guests was even hotter, and Ma Zhen was very careful to serve it, because if the soup accidentally spilled out and scalded the guests, it would be troublesome.
Motauti shouted to put the pot away, and Ma Zhen immediately went over, pulled a paper towel and padd it on the edge of the pot, and walked towards the kitchen.
It must have been because of the oil that had been sprinkled on the ground, and the worst thing had happened. Ma Zhen's feet slipped, his body leaned back, and the hot pot soup in the pot swayed forward, not biased or slanted, and just poured onto the back of a female guest next to him, from his neck to his back. The female guest jumped up from the stool and let out a shrill scream, it was too hot!
And Ma Zhen was also frightened, and quickly stood firm, but the soup in the hot pot was not stable, and the hot pot soup poured on his chest and hands, it was too hot, and Ma Zhen threw the pot to the floor at once. I only heard a "clang".
The guests in the entire hall are looking this way, and all the service staff are looking this way.
The female guest made an ouch and pain sound, and Ma Zhen also made an ouch and pain sound.
Yuan Yun immediately ran over, and the chef in the kitchen immediately brought a basin of ice water and towels over.
A guest next to him said that he could not use ice water and should be sent to the hospital as soon as possible.
Yuan Yun arranged for a cook to take the guest and Ma Zhen to the hospital with Motautti, and the two male guests who were with the female guest followed them angrily: "Drop a sentence viciously, come back and look for you." ”
This night can make Fan Ran tired, although the work is simple, but I have only come to the first day, there are still a lot of unfamiliar places and things, and it is full of seats, serving dishes, and closing the table alone.
There is no way to do it now, only to serve the pot by himself, Fan Ran saw the scene just now, his heart palpitated, and he was even more cautious, afraid that something would go wrong.
The kitchen recycled the leftover hot pot soup and did not throw it away, but poured it into a large colander with a large stainless steel bucket under the colander that was one meter and five high, and the leftover hot pot soup was leaked into the stainless steel bucket, and they simply processed it and scooped it out for later use. When the next group of guests comes, they will use this oil to make a hot pot base for the guests.
This is what we commonly call the old oil hot pot.
Xiao Xie came to Fan Ran's restaurant after work, and when she saw that he was busy, she found an empty chair by the door and sat down to wait for him, Fan Ran said hello to her, and then went to get busy.
Ma Zhen went to the hospital, Fan Ran was a vegetable student in the restaurant, and there were many guests, so he was busy all night. After cleaning up the store, it was already past ten o'clock.
By this time there were no more buses. With the smell of hot pot all over his body, he and Xiao Xie were ready to walk back. The walk is quite far, from Wanxiang Hotel to Liuyun Villa, it takes more than 40 minutes to walk fast.
"How are you going to work there?" Fan Ran asked.
"That's good. ”
"We're so far away, we won't be able to live in Liuyun Villa for a few days, why don't we move to the dormitory?"
"Yes, but we can't live together. As he spoke, Xiao Xie had a sad expression.
"Wait a minute, our economic conditions are better, let's rent a house to live in, right?"
"Okay, it's okay now, I'll pay the rent. ”
"Let's not do it yet, let's wait for a little more stability. ”
"Okay. Xiao Xie looked a little unhappy.
They talked and walked at the same time, and when they reached Liuyun Villa, it was already past eleven o'clock, and they still secretly opened a room on the second floor. Fan Ran felt tired, and after entering the room, he lay down on the bed, and he didn't take a shower, so he didn't want to move. There is also a big smell of hot pot on the body.
Xiao Xie went to take a bath.
After taking a shower and coming to bed: "Go take a shower and go to sleep." She tugged at Fan Ran's clothes.
Fan Ran still got up, and rushed hastily with three strokes and five divisions.
Xiao Xie lay in Fan Ran's arms: "Why don't you come back tomorrow afternoon and help me collect my salary?"
"If I receive your salary, will the finance give it to me?"
"Forget it, I'd better take leave and come back to get it. Just put things up to the dormitory of the Wuhua Hotel. ”
"I waited until I got paid before I moved in. ”
"I have a lot of stuff, you can help me tomorrow afternoon." ”
"Okay. ”
Xiao Xie stretched out his hand and hugged Fan Ran's neck tightly, leaning against Fan Ran tightly with his whole body......
Because they were too tired during the day, they fell asleep after a burst of intimacy, and Xiao Xie also snorted slightly.
The next morning, Xiao Xie got up early in the morning because she had to go to work earlier.
Fan Ran didn't get up, he slept a little longer.
It was already nine twenty o'clock when Fan Ran arrived at the hotel, and everyone was already sitting at the table and starting to eat. Yuan Yun saw that Fan Ran had arrived, and went to help him get food and a pair of chopsticks. Fan Ran said thank you.
"Yesterday's guest was badly injured and needs to be compensated. Ma Zhen is also not lightly injured, and he may not be able to return to work for a short time. Yuan Yun turned his head towards Fan Ran as she spoke: "Fan Ran, you have to work hard, but our personnel department is recruiting, but I don't know when someone will come." ”
"It's not hard, I've done it. Fan Ran said while eating.
Yuan Yun nodded: "The waiter and the aunt in the kitchen will also help you." ”
"It's okay, it's a very simple job, just be busy for a while, I can do it. Fan Ran replied.
