409 is off to a good start
(Thanks to my friend for the encouragement of the monthly pass to finally return to the roots)
In the past, Tang Shen was very curious about Liu Heming's cooking skills, but as she ate more, she had given up her interest in inquiry. You can't figure out why Liu Heming is so casual when he cooks, but the food tastes good.
Now it's these chefs who are curious, they didn't eat often before, even if they had seen Liu Heming's cooking skills when they first came, and now they admire Liu Heming very much.
Everyone is a person who has been specially trained, but what about Liu Heming? People just want their daughter to eat more satisfied, but they make the food so delicious.
After a simple and somewhat early lunch, everyone came to the restaurant and food court. On the side of the restaurant, Tang Shenshen took the rest of the chefs to take care of it, and Liu Heming took his family to the food court.
This is a real food court, there are many exquisite Chinese snacks in it, and of course, Liu Heming's pancakes, meat sandwich buns, and take-out kebabs are also indispensable here.
It's just that the main dish here is a self-service rotating small hot pot. This is also a decision made by Liu Heming after careful consideration.
The cooking method of hot pot was very popular with George and them at the beginning. At that time, he wanted to fully launch the hot pot, but later found that it was a bit difficult.
One is that he has to make a lot of hot pot himself, although he has made some, it seems that it is still a little insufficient compared to the number of tourists. Moreover, the eating habits of the United States are their own and eat their own, and there will definitely be people who mind the situation of fishing for vegetables in the same pot.
Another difficulty is the safety factor, he built all charcoal hot pot, if a table is set up one, the air quality in the entire restaurant is a big problem. If tourists come with children, such copper hot pot is also easy to burn the children.
Now it is a small pot for one person, and it is also some distance from the dining table, which can be convenient for parents to take care of their children. The chef apprentices here will also explain how to eat this small hot pot.
The plates are also loaded with different colors, and each color plate corresponds to a price, and when everyone is done eating, the plates are counted. This is much more generous than Liu Heming's previous charge of $100 per person, especially for those who have a small amount of food.
Thirty dollars is enough for a meal here, which is a lot of savings compared to before, and you can taste a variety of foods.
Don't underestimate this self-service hot pot, the soup at the bottom of this pot is also carefully prepared. It's all soup that has been boiled a long time ago, and some giant morels have been added to it, and the taste is really not bad.
Now there are a lot of people crowded here to eat, and the waiters are also very quick to make up the food on the conveyor table, not to mention that it will be taken away as soon as it is made.
"Dexter, will you make a lot less money now than you used to charge?" asked Victor, who came with him, curiously.
"It's going to be less, and judging from the way everyone eats right now, the profit is about $15 or more. Liu Heming smiled and nodded.
"But this can be regarded as a preparation for the future, although I made a lot of money in the past, I stopped a lot of people from the outside. Now the attraction of my ranch is the exotic food and the animals. ”
"In the future, I plan to build my ranch into something like a large amusement park area. A lot of the land here is not suitable for renovation at all, so you can add some other recreation activities and make use of this land. ”
"In the future, there will be more guests who come to play, even if I earn less, the total profit will increase a lot, and it can also drive the popularity of Xiangshui Town. ”
There is a lot of land in Xiangshui Town, but there are some places that are really not suitable for transformation into planting areas. Liu Heming didn't want to waste these lands, don't look at the land, they were all bought back at the same price as other land.
Now the land in the pasture is still being transformed with the efforts of the big earthworms, but we have to think about how to use the land that cannot be transformed in advance. He really had a headache, thinking that he should go to some amusement projects, but he didn't have a real plan in his head.
"I don't know much about this, but I think it's your own land anyway, and it's reasonable to arrange whatever you want. Victor said with a smile.
"In the future, you can also open a picking area, which will not only allow you to sell some of the produce from your ranch, but also attract more tourists. ”
"That's a good idea, but it's too late anyway, so I'll think about it when I get back. Liu Heming nodded.
There isn't a lot of land that can be cultivated right now, but there will be more in the future. If all of them are used to grow food crops, the profit may be smaller. Victor's suggestion is a good idea to attract tourists and create more value.
After turning around here, Liu Heming turned to the restaurant again.
There are also a lot of people here, and with so many new dishes being launched at once, many customers have an obstacle to choice. Looking at the pictures, they are all beautiful dishes, and the prices are also beautiful, but I don't know what the taste will be.
At this time, the waiters who were hired with high salaries played a powerful role, and they tasted all the dishes in the restaurant themselves. They will ask the customer what they like and then recommend the right dish.
The money for hiring these waiters with high salaries was not spent in vain, and with their presence, the grade in the restaurant was raised a lot at once.
Tang Shenshen and the chefs are also very busy, and they do underestimate the enthusiasm of these diners. Even if today's preparation is sufficient, it is very busy.
"Boss, come here. Tang Shen finished frying a dish, and hurriedly shouted at Liu Heming when he saw him.
"It's not going to be for me to help you, is it?" asked Liu Heming with a smile as he slipped to the central kitchen.
"You don't need to help, but you're the chef of this restaurant. Don't you have to make some of the 'boss's specialties' yourself?" said Tang Shen with a smile.
Liu Heming was stunned for a moment, and really forgot about it. Then I saw Tang take out a sign from under the kitchen with a deep smile and hang it on the side, and the title on it was "Boss Specialties". That's a price list, to be exact.
White truffle steak $188, black truffle pasta $168, boss special boiled fish $158, boss special pasta $100, Alex grilled scallops $20 each.
There are only five dishes, but the prices marked at the back are not low. There is also a note at the bottom of the price list that the time of supply is uncertain.
How could Tang Shenshen not toss Liu Heming well, anyway, the dishes made by Liu Heming are also counted as the turnover of the restaurant, and when the turnover is high, everyone's salary will be much higher.
"Forget about me, why did you get Alex in?" Liu Heming said with a wry smile.
"Alex is our special chef and gets paid $10 for every scallop made. Don said with a deep wink and a smile.
"I'm sorry for you, but I'm afraid the little guy won't have time today, so I'll talk about it later. Liu Heming shook his head helplessly.
Don was so well prepared that he took out his chef's outfit as he spoke. What else is there to say, the guests have begun to order, and he has to make this Western food.
It can be said that these are the only two Western dishes in the whole restaurant, and the prices are not low, but they are very popular. When Liu Heming came out after changing his clothes, he had already accumulated eight steaks and thirteen pasta.
Tang Shen is very proud, this is a proper way to make money, saving everyone from working here, but Liu Heming is watching the excitement on the side.
She felt that she could toss Liu Heming in this way, but she found that she was wrong, and it was ridiculously wrong.
Truffle steak, people directly grilled on the iron plate, eight pieces fried together. The pasta is cooked directly in a large pot. Even if there is a small requirement for doneness on the steak side because of the preferences of the guests, it is not a problem at all here in Liu Heming. Segmented steaks are easy to handle, not to mention these.
In a few minutes, the steaks are all ready and plated. The steak may be inferior to the steak in other restaurants, and Liu Heming is not that interested in arranging flowers on the side.
The pasta soup is almost done, take the pasta out of the pot, divide it into thirteen portions, and carry a spoon to pour the soup over the pot, and this is done. The whole process is just over ten minutes.
This is the central kitchen, and while he is cooking, these diners are also looking at this side. Some people saw him doing it so casually, and they thought that he might have been a little fooled today.
They are considered to be people who come here and can afford to eat these dishes, and the conditions at home are not bad, at least the high-end restaurants will go every once in a while.
With doubts in my mind, I tasted these steaks and pastas more carefully. After eating it in one bite, they felt that they had come today, and the food here looked very expensive, but it was actually really worth it.
The black truffles and white truffles here are already expensive, and although Liu Heming's cooking method is a little rougher, the taste is really not bad.
Originally, some people planned to share it with their friends, but after tasting it, they started to add orders directly. You may not be able to afford to eat often, but if you catch up today, you can't miss it.
Looking at the gathered menu, Tang Shenle's eyes were almost gone. With Liu Heming here today, the turnover must be properly beautiful, this is a good start, a good sign.
