After looking at the recipes and plaques, everyone took their seats one by one.

Although Zhao Jing was very easy-going, he was the highest status among the people present after all, and after a slight resignation, he still sat at the top of the banquet.

The so-called first place is the unique feature of Chinese banquet culture.

The first place is also known as the host and guest seat, the position is generally facing the entrance to the dish, the left hand side of the host and guest is the main escort, which is generally the guest of the banquet, and the main escort is facing the door, because the guests may not come at the same time, so that it is convenient to see the arrival of each guest, and can stand up in time to greet the guests.

Opposite the main escort is the second escort, the second escort is to have a particularly good relationship with the main escort, and assist the main escort to accompany the guests.

On normal occasions, the second escort should also simply say a few words of thanks, which is very helpful to adjust the atmosphere, and secondly, he is responsible for paying the bill (the main escort has already given him the money in private).

On the right hand side of the second escort, there is the sixth escort with the lowest status in the banquet, and in the family banquet, this position is generally occupied by male juniors in their twenties - responsible for serving dishes.

However, what everyone participated in today was the opening banquet of Li Yu's restaurant, so the position was not so clear, the little girl was arranged next to Zhao Jing, and Yang Wuduan and Yun Siduan sat in the position of the second guest (the left hand side of the main escort).

As the youngest two in the crowd (except for the little girl), Chen Xiyan and Lin Jing offered to sit on both sides of the serving mouth.

At this time, the expressions of the two of them were a little trance, they didn't expect to come over to give Li Yu a second time, and they could actually see Zhao Jing and the two Dongyuan chefs?

Who is Zhao Jing? That is Shucheng and even Fujian Province are among the top real estate bosses, with countless properties under his name, not to mention Chen Xiyan and Lin Jing on weekdays, even the president of the food strategy may not be able to see him, and ten minutes ago, he actually asked himself to help him take a photo with Li Yu?

Next to Zhao Jing's two ranks, sitting are Yang Wuduan and Yun Siduan, these two are also chefs who can only be accessed at a certain level... Thinking of this, Chen Xiyan's heart was both excited and slightly astringent.

I was excited to catch Zhao Jing's line, and I was astringent because I owed Li Yu a little more love.

Her interview with Li Yu a few days ago has been written by Lin Jing and published as an article, whether it is on the paper side, on the meager side, and on the traffic side of the official account, readers have burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm.

Taking meager as an example, the meager number of fans of the meager issue of the food strategy magazine was 170,000, and the number of meager comments on weekdays fluctuated between 70 and 100.

But on the day of the release of Li Yu's interview, the number of comments on the interview exceeded 1,000, and the magazine's meager fans also exceeded 200,000.

Seeing that the effect of the interview was so gratifying, the president of the magazine waved his hand, and Chen Xiyan and Lin Jing's internal level was raised by one level, and they became a media person group who was qualified to go out for interviews independently, and the year-end bonus will also pay one more quarter of salary.

Promotion and salary increase, for the two who were born ordinary, it is not an exaggeration to call it a turning point in their fate.

Originally, Chen Xiyan planned to spend more effort on self-media marketing and help Li Yu build the foundation of the self-media platform, so that he could repay some favors.

But I didn't expect that today's table of banquets, not to mention the favor, even owed a few more points.

However, Li Yu didn't know the little entanglement in Chen Xiyan's heart, at this time he had already come to the kitchen on the first floor, preparing to cook the opening banquet - the Dragon Gate Banquet.

The so-called Dragon Gate Banquet, taking the righteous carp jumping over the Dragon Gate, is different from the promotion banquet to celebrate the promotion and the housewarming banquet to celebrate the move, the Dragon Gate Banquet is a wine banquet customized for the opening of the store, and... Li Yu and carp are still very similar in homophony, and the opening banquet is pleasing to everyone.

In the recipe of the restaurant, the dishes of the Longmen Banquet are not fixed, after all, there are many dishes suitable for the opening banquet, and Li Yu can't cook them for the time being, so he inscribed the Longmen Banquet with 'A' in the recipe, and after the state recovers, he can naturally add 'B', 'C' or even more.

Today's Jiaxi Longmen Banquet he cooked has a total of nine dishes, one cold dish, six cooked dishes and one soup, and finally a dessert at the end.

Because it is a private restaurant, let alone business, it has not even made a name yet, so Li Yu temporarily wears many hats, and does not hire a waiter, and even the ingredients of the restaurant are still taken by Dongyuan - of course, this is a temporary countermeasure, and when the restaurant is on the right track, these are all to be solved one by one.

As early as a few hours ago, Li Yu put some ingredients that need to be boiled for a long time in the pot - this is also a relatively relaxed point for the chef of the private restaurant.

Generally speaking, customers in private restaurants will book a banquet hours or even days in advance, so that the chef can calmly prepare the ingredients and wait for the guests to arrive at the restaurant, so that they can be cooked in a short time.

The main body of this saying is fish, so in this dish, of course, there must be fish! The main body is fish, but if the fish is slaughtered or even chopped into pieces... Gotcha, your "fish" is all divided into five horses, and you are jumping into a fart dragon gate!

Therefore, there can be no fish in the Dragon Gate Banquet, but there must be a door.

The so-called door does not refer to the food similar to the shape of the "door", but refers to the homonym, the door is stewed..."The Book of Food" records that Yueyang is very rich, and when the store opens, the first dish of the Longmen banquet is the braised lamb meat in sauce.

And the stewed dish prepared by Li Yu today is braised fried tofu with pork belly.

Braised fried tofu with pork belly is not a historical dish, but this does not mean that it has a bad taste, on the contrary, this dish is still the third cooked dish of the state banquet when the mud Kesong of the rice country visited China!

The two main ingredients of this dish are pork belly and tofu, which are fried together and then simmered in a thick chicken broth.

The hard shell of the fried tofu is soaked in the soup, and the fried pork belly is simmered in the soup to be fragrant and soft and glutinous.

It's not enough to have this dish of braised fried tofu with pork belly, Li Yu is ready to add another meaning: belly chicken - chicken belly is like a door, containing fragrant belly, chicken belly open means that the dragon door is open, good luck, eat chicken tonight!

Belly chicken is a very traditional dish in the Hakka area, with a very long history, it was first eaten by Hakka women during confinement, and it has a very good nourishing effect.

This dish emerged from Guangdong Province a few years ago, and it is also available in Jiangning, Sichuan Province and other places, but it is not very famous, and everyone does not know much, but with the popularity of "My Brother is Shunyo", this dish has become a popular star like several main actors in the TV series.
