Chapter 60: My Kitchen, My Rules
In the afternoon, the whole restaurant was completely renewed, and You Yishou also chatted with a few apprentices, asking them which they would be, and it was no problem for a few people to cut and match the lotus, so that the latter had a good idea, after all, the kitchen could not be busy with him alone, and asked them to prepare for the meal, You Yishou drove out, saying that he was going to buy ingredients, but in fact, he was looking for a place where no one was taking out some ingredients from three gardens, ten mountains and one sea.

……
All the ingredients were ready, and You handed over the set menu to the manager Yang Shuang, who was twenty-eight years old, a native of Chengdu, very beautiful, with a tall figure tied in a ponytail, dressed in professional clothes, looking both capable and mature woman's temperament.
"Master You, are you sure the price is right?" Looking at the pricing on the menu, Yang Shuang's eyes widened and asked.
"That's right. You said with certainty.
The grade of a restaurant depends on the quality of the dishes and the chef's skills, especially the hands are very confident in their own dishes, so the price will naturally not be low, about 1000 per person, which is not expensive in top restaurants.
At around 18 o'clock in the evening, the restaurant hidden in the flowers and trees is already brightly lit, and the light shines through the glass and the bamboo forest, which is very quiet and quiet, but at the moment the restaurant is very deserted, except for the busy staff, there is no trace of customers.
"Ding Lingling"
At this time, the phone rang, Yang Shuang picked up the phone excitedly, but it was the boss Han Yufei calling, she told the latter that there would be a few important guests to come over to try the dishes, let her do a good job of reception and inform Master You to prepare in advance, the latter nodded in response.
In the back kitchen of the restaurant, You Yishou, who was wearing a chef's suit, was lecturing, he wanted to tell the apprentices some kitchen rules, in the back kitchen, except for him, no one was allowed to cook without permission, not allowed to take out the ingredients, and not allowed to leak the recipes of the dishes, of course, even if someone was on the side to record the whole process, I am afraid that I would not be able to make the taste of You Yishou.
Yang Shuang came in and said, "Master You, Mr. Han said that there will be a few guests to try the dishes later, so let you prepare in advance." ”
"Well, got it. ”
……
Not long after, an Audi sedan stopped at the gate of the courtyard, and several men who looked like leaders got out of the car and were led by the greeter to the private room on the second floor of the restaurant.
"Lao Zhao, didn't the girl of the old Han family say that the restaurant was closed, and it opened so soon?" said one of the chubby middle-aged men.
The man wearing glasses on the side smiled and said, "Who knows, I heard that a new chef is coming." ”
"Hey, you said that this girl has a good fortune and doesn't enjoy it, I really don't understand that she has to open a restaurant. ”
"Lao Yang, don't look at these children on the surface, but in fact, they are not all grabbing political resources, as far as I know, the leaders of several units have come here to eat. ”
"No, if it weren't for the chef here, it would be a great place to drink. ”
……
At this time, Yang Shuang knocked on the door of the private room with the menu, the average consumer here used to be at most 100 yuan per capita, but now it has increased nearly tenfold, and she doesn't dare to show it to the guests, not to mention that these are still guests invited by the boss.
"Sir, this is our latest menu, please take a look. Yang Shuang said tremblingly.
"Girl, what are you afraid of, I'm afraid that we won't give money if we eat. ”
"Haha"
One of the men took the menu and browsed it, and when he opened the first page, his eyes suddenly widened, and he turned several pages in a row, as if to confirm something.
"Lao Zhao, what's wrong with you, ordering a dish scares you!" quipped.
"Lao Li, look at it yourself, the cheapest cold dish is more than 100, and the most expensive hot dish is more than 800, what kind of dish is this!
"Why is it so expensive, I'll see. ”
"Girl, are you mistaken, in the past, a meal here was only a thousand yuan, but now it has risen so much, what are you going to do, I don't want to do it!" The middle-aged man surnamed Li said angrily after reading the menu, he really slaughtered them as fat sheep, not to mention the manager, even the boss is here, and he will scold him correctly.
"I'm sorry leader, this menu was ordered by our head chef, he said that it is worth the money, and I guarantee that you will not regret eating it. Yang Shuang hurriedly said the words that You Yishou had taught her in advance.
"What kind of chef, can you be more powerful than the chef of a five-star hotel?"
"That's it, I regret it after eating it, this melon baby will say. ”
"Call Yu Fei, I originally wanted to give her a cheer, but now depending on the situation, we old guys can't afford to eat. ”
……
Just when several leaders were in a mood, Han Yufei walked in from outside, and she heard several uncles and uncles complaining outside the door, so frightened that she thought that something was wrong.
"What's wrong with a few uncles, why are you so angry?"
"Yu Fei, you came just in time, where did you invite the chef, is he from a Michelin or a state guesthouse?" the man surnamed Zhao complained.
Han Yufei took a look at the menu, and even she was taken aback, but she was quickly relieved, because the dishes you made were worth it no matter how much money they sold.
"Don't be angry, uncles, listen to my explanation, although the chef I invited is not from the State Guesthouse, but the dishes he makes are comparable to American banquets, you can taste them first, today I originally asked you to try the dishes, to see if the price is appropriate?" Han Yufei resolved everyone's anger in a few words, these are the main leaders of the city, and she took a lot of effort to invite them, and she can't afford to offend.
After appeasing several leaders, Han Yufei hurriedly came to the back kitchen and called out You Yishou, who was busy.
"Master You, you set the price of a high-end restaurant, will it?" Han Yufei said worriedly, she was not too expensive but afraid of turning some people away, after all, most of the people she came into contact with were people in the officialdom.
"Mr. Han, are you not confident in yourself, or are you not confident in me?" You Yishou said with a smile.
Delicious food itself is for those who appreciate it, and since you have agreed to be the chef, he is willing to share his food with others, but the same good food also needs to reflect its value, which is also the law of circulation.
