Chapter 339: The First Bonito Returns to the Bonito
The window is open!
Dressed in a white chef's costume, his hair was simply tied up, and he was serving with a bonito meat in his hand, and he was cautious, and he was startled by Tang Hai......
"Chiyo!"
"Tang Jun!"
The people in the store thought that they had hit a smashing scene, and Jennifer was also nervous, even if the food made by others was unpalatable, there was no need to hit someone! It turned out that I met each other!
Chiyo asked people to put the 'Clean' sign at the door, and the restaurant was closed, so it was much more important to be able to meet Tang Hai and be able to open......
"Doesn't it matter?"
"This is my family's shop, it's fine."
Tang Hai was a little surprised, he only knew that Chiyo's family had money and that Chiyo would cook some food, but he never knew what Chiyo's family did for a living!
Japanese restaurants are very profitable, and these shops outside Tsukiji Market have special sushi sets, which are about 2,000 yen for 8 people, 4,000 yen for luxury seasonal, and 5,000 for another 5,000 yuan, and generally travel here to spend an average of 4,000 yuan a meal, which is about 40 US dollars.
The popular Tsukiji Market sushi restaurant has to accommodate more than 100 people!
In the morning and at noon, it is actually fast food, and in the evening, any dish, a skewer of grilled squid, can cost 1,000 yen! If it's a little more luxurious, you'll get 10,000 yen to eat!
The turnover is terrifyingly large, the kind of sushi restaurant with only ten positions can net more than 20,000 US dollars a month, and Tang Hai of the sushi big does not dare to estimate that it is the first seafood restaurant outside the world's first seafood market.
Sushi can be eaten in 15 minutes, and the cost can reach two or three hundred dollars, and the highest cost per unit of time is Japanese.
Tang Hai noticed just now, it was written here that there was a store of one heart, no wonder Chiyo never seemed to be short of money.
Chiyo went to get two more dishes, came over to greet Tang Hai at a table, and then brought a stool.
Don Hai Left Jennifer Right Jason ......
Jennifer smiled and pulled away. also quietly squeezed her eyebrows at Tang Hai, she knew that Tang Hai had a Japanese girl friend.
"You said before that you were looking for a job after graduation and you were busy, so you went home to help in the store?"
"Tang Jun. I'm one of the top 10 in the store! It's just that the craft was too bad before, and I haven't learned it seriously, so I'm embarrassed to say ......"
Ten masters, which means that this is the tenth generation!
In other words, it was the Edo period. That is, the signboard that was opened during the Tokugawa Ieyasu period?
Tang Hai didn't know much about Japanese history, so he memorized some of the ingredients by rote, but he couldn't remember the exact time, but it didn't matter......
Chiyo and Tang Hai talked about what happened after returning to Japan.
Her grandmother was a well-known chef, but she had passed away, and her father succeeded her, and the family's business declined......
It's not that her father's strength can't do it, if a person's elders have high achievements, the child will be underestimated.
Fortunately, Chiyo's father has high requirements for ingredients and strives for perfection. In the end, I got through it.
But soon after Chiyo returned home, her father was admitted to the hospital with hematopoietic dysfunction anemia.
Chiyo was still so young, her father was in his early forties, and she didn't expect her powerful father to be weak at all!
"Uncle, is it okay?" Tang Hai was also a little worried.
"It's okay, it's not very serious, but I need to rest, recuperate and treat for half a year, and it's not serious enough to need blood transfusion or bone marrow replacement."
Tang Hai breathed a sigh of relief.
"And then you took over the store? It's also too ......."
"It did affect the business after I was replaced at first, but after I added this window, the business slowly recovered. Now there are three times in the peak. β
"Sancheng ......" Thinking about the price of the dishes just ordered, Sancheng is estimated to be able to earn tens of thousands of dollars a month, it seems that this restaurant is still very competitive, and not everyone will eat sushi when they come to Tokyo. This kind of restaurant, which is a little more expensive, has a large amount, and can be eaten for a long time, is also very popular with people.
"And I also have Sister Aoi to help me, she used to work at TAKAO, but because she was always treated as a mascot there. Said that the food she cooked was lovely, she felt that she was being slighted, so she came back, and it happened that my sous chef also left, so I let her try it for a while, and thanks to her our evaluation slowly improved......"
βTAKAOοΌ This is the number one sushi restaurant in the United States! Legend has it that this restaurant was the first to incorporate caviar, foie gras, and other ingredients into Japanese cuisine, and now NIKI, the leading female chef in Japanese cuisine, has also studied there......"
"But not every Japanese female chef is suitable for there, is there?" A woman walked out from the back of the kitchen with long wavy hair and a plate of bonito with a smile.
At first glance, Tang Hai could see that this woman was not simple, Chiyo gave Tang Hai the feeling that she was flexible and imaginative, but this woman was orderly.
Naturally, she put down the last plate of bonito, and then moved a stool to sit down.
"I WENT TO TALAO BECAUSE I ADMIRED NIKI AT FIRST, BUT LUCKILY I WAS SUCCESSFUL, BUT I DIDN'T HAVE THE SPIRITUALITY OF NIKI, SO I QUIT. When I was back in Tokyo, I wanted to eat, so I walked into this restaurant......"
"Bah, was my dad cooking for you?"
"No, it's Chiyo you."
"I don't even know about it!"
"At that time, I felt that the maple sea bream rice was very good, and it had the taste of my mother's cooking when I was a child, and then I tried to hand in my resume...... Miss Chiyo, although your skills are still very rusty, you are very spiritual, and you can often make 'mother's cooking', and you have seen so many chefs, and only Chiyo has this ability......"
A chef's abilities come from talent.
However, talent comes from observation.
Tang Hai first practiced his senses of smell and taste, and then tasted food, and the more he ate, the more he understood what the diners wanted to eat. A person who doesn't eat food regularly and has a worse sense of taste than a diner can't be a good chef.
And Chiyo, Tang Hai remembered that she grew up in Hokkaido, so she must have eaten a lot of 'fisherman's meals'! For children by the sea, it's 'Mommy's cooking'!
Chiyo was praised by Aoi and was a little embarrassed: "A lot of things are taught by Tang Jun, as well as my mother and grandmother, but I can't be a chef myself, everything will be messed up by me, it's Aoi You came before I could think of any kitchen utensils, and it appeared on its own......"
Seeing the two women complimenting each other here, the group blinked their eyes and put the bonito sashimi in their mouths.
Except for Tang Hai, everyone's complexion changed slightly!
"Tang Jun, you have already rated the previous two foods, and you haven't said anything about this bonito!" Chiyo looked at Tang Hai expectantly.
"Bonito is a subfamily of tuna, so like tuna, the fresher the better. In March, the bonito swims from the Philippines to Kochi along the warm Japanese current, when they are at their hungriest and have the lowest fat content of less than 2%. After a little placement, the hyposulfonic acid in the body will increase, and then slightly roast the surface with straw, and the hyposulfonic acid will increase to the extreme. This dish can only be served last, because once it is served, anything else will be lost...... I'll give you full marks for this dish. β
Chiyo smiled, then ......
"Tang Jun, bonito is a migratory creature in the ocean, and after they are full in the north, they will migrate south again in autumn, and the bonito at that time is also called Gui bonito. Bonito is like that, and so are people, right? β
Jennifer and the others picked up the water cup and drank it calmly.
Tang Hai's movements were a little stiff, Chiyo must have noticed that he had a good impression of her at the beginning, and when a boy has a good impression of a girl, the girl will definitely notice it! But how to take this word!
"Just like me and Aoi, I decided to do something else, but in the end I came back to my heart. And Aoi obviously wanted to make a name for herself in the United States, but in the end she came back. Chiyo suddenly smiled.
Tricked......
Tang Hai thinks that Chiyo's smiling face can become the mascot of the restaurant to attract sales!
It's a pity that the chef who is too cute will make diners feel unreliable!
