Chapter 36: Unprecedented

Five-star hotel kitchen.

"Phoenix jade dumplings? What a fitting name! Ling Lin was eye-opening, the pattern of this plate of dumplings was the rebirth of a phoenix.

"You try it with dipping sauce." Wei Ran smiled and handed Ling Lin a pair of chopsticks.

Ling Lin took the chopsticks, picked up a dumpling as green as jade, dipped it in a little dipping sauce, and put it in his mouth.

"It's sweet and sour, and the spicy flavor of the dipping sauce is a little pungent and rich, and it's really rich and mysterious!" Ling Lin said with an intoxicated expression.

"Sister Ling Lin, your tongue is quite powerful." Wei Ran praised from the bottom of his heart.

"It's really a lot better than the dumplings you tried to make yesterday!" Ling Lin couldn't help but pick up another dumpling and put it in her mouth, slowly experiencing the happiness signal from her taste buds.

"I came up with something I thought about last night, and the fresh sweetness of spinach complements the spiciness." Wei Ran said happily.

"By the way, I saw you scalding spinach with boiling water just now, is there anything special about this?" Ling Lin asked.

"Oh, this is because spinach is rich in nutrients, but at the same time it also contains a substance called oxalic acid, which is easy to combine with calcium to form calcium oxalate that is not easily absorbed by the human body, and calcium oxalate can cause kidney stones, in short, it is more harmful to the human body, so I blanch spinach in boiling water, which can reduce some oxalic acid." Wei Ran patiently explained.

"Oh my God, I didn't know!" Ling Lin said embarrassedly.

"To be a qualified chef, you definitely need to have a certain level of knowledge in nutrition, and you have to remember that." Wei Ran said with a serious face.

"I remember!" Ling Lin nodded solemnly.

When he was shopping for vegetables just now, Wei Ran had already agreed with the stall owner who sold spinach to send 50 catties of spinach over.

The reason why there are so many is because today is the day when the five-star hotel is not limited to operation, and Wei Ran can already imagine the spectacular scene of the five-star hotel being crowded.

"Sister Ling Lin, there will definitely be a lot of guests today, I can't be busy alone, can you call Xiaocui to help me together?" Wei Ran asked for help.

"No problem!" Ling Lin readily agreed.

Some simple cooking steps, such as spinach juice and the like, Wei Ran can rest assured to explain to the two of them, but considering the large number of spinach, it is obviously not realistic to mash it slowly with a garlic pot, Ling Lin didn't think much about it, and went to the electrical store next door to buy a juicer, which was much more convenient.

Near noon, with the joint efforts of the three people of the five-star restaurant, a total of more than 400 dumplings were wrapped, which is still not enough, but unfortunately the ingredients are limited, and we can only make so much today.

"I'm dripping gods!" Wei Ran stretched his tired body while walking out of the kitchen, looked at it intently, and was suddenly frightened by the scene in front of him.

The five-star hotel was not open, and the customers had to consciously queue up outside the store, and one after another, there were more and more customers, so the queue went from one to two and now there are six teams.

The length of each team is very long, even extending to the road, occupying half of the road, and the two-way road has become a one-way road, and countless vehicles can only pass through this area at a slow speed.

"Sister Ling Lin, come out and see!" Wei Ran shouted, it was too shocking.

Ling Lin came out with doubts and looked at it, and was immediately stunned, "Mom, I'm not dreaming, right?" ”

"That's a bit too many, isn't it?" Wei Ran couldn't laugh or cry.

And that's not all, the number of customers waiting in line continues to increase, which is terrible.

"If this continues, 400 dumplings, one person is not enough!" Ling Lin also smiled bitterly.

Wei Ran just wanted to answer, his mobile phone rang, and when he took it out, he saw that it was Liu Ming.

"Liu Ming, I haven't seen you for two days."

"Wei Ran, I've been busy for the past two days, so I didn't come to dinner, I'm sorry." Liu Ming said apologetically.

"It's okay, I didn't force you to come over for dinner every day." Wei Ran said with a smile.

"Eh, is there any event in your store? Why are so many people queuing? I can't even drive my car. Liu Ming was surprised.

"We are open for business today, and there is no limit to the number of customers, but I didn't expect that as soon as the news was released, there would be so many people cheering." Wei Ran said both in surprise and helplessly.

"This is not a solution, a few traffic police officers came over just now, saying that it affected the traffic order and was planning to disperse the crowd."

"Huh? The traffic police uncles are all here? Wei Ran touched the back of his head and said with a headache.

"Yes, but don't worry, Captain Lin of the traffic police brigade is my friend and has already helped you solve it, but this is only temporary, you better think of a way as soon as possible, so many people are not easy to fix!" Liu Ming said with some concern.

"Thank you, Liu Ming, I'll figure it out." Wei Ran thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

"Then let's go back first today, so as not to cause trouble for you."

"Okay, slow down on the road."

Hanging up the phone, Wei Ran touched his nose, there are so many people, even if there are enough dumplings, they can't entertain them in a day.

I really have no choice but to grieve the customer.

"Sister Ling Lin, there are too many people, and the dumplings are not enough, so select some customers to entertain!" Wei Ran said helplessly.

"That's all there is to it, how do you choose?" Ling Lin agreed.

"No matter how you choose, what must be ensured is that it is fair and just, so that the unsuccessful customers will not have too much regret." Wei Ran pondered.

Now there is still a week before the dumpling competition, and the reason why Wei Ran is open for business is also to prepare for the competition, and the customers waiting in line outside are the hope of the five-star hotel to win the championship.

"It's better to just open it for a week at a time." Wei Ran thought about it for a while.

"Open for a week? There are already so many people on the first day of opening, so you don't worry about the five-star hotel being crowded? Ling Lin didn't know why.

"We're not here to attract popularity to the dumpling contest, it's okay to be open for a week." Wei Ran paused and continued, "In addition, let's use our birthday month to select the customers we will entertain today. ”

"Birthday month?"

"Well, I'll explain it to the customers!" Wei Ran smiled lightly, the five-star hotel is unprecedented today, I don't know if anyone has been exposed on the Internet?

"Good!"

Wei Ran went straight to the door of the store, pushed open the glass door and walked out.

"Eh, here it is, this is the chef of a five-star hotel!"

"So young, are you sure his dishes are very tasty?"

"Can I lie to you? Just don't eat your tongue later! ”

Waves of sound rushed to his face, giving Wei Ran the illusion of being at the concert scene.

Slowly, Wei Ran moistened his throat and said loudly: "Customers and friends, hello everyone, I am the chef of a five-star hotel, I am very happy that you can come to cheer today, to be honest, so many people really scared me." ”

"There are too many people, the five-star hotel is a small restaurant, and it can't meet the needs of all the friends on the scene, so I can only select some friends to entertain."

"How do you choose?" There was a lot of noise at the scene, but in fact, the customers also knew in their hearts that so many people, let alone a five-star hotel, even if a restaurant several times larger than it, could not entertain so many people at once.

"I've thought about it, so let's decide by birthday month, and today, we'll entertain customers and friends with birthdays in June and September." Wei Ran said loudly, not so loud, the back of the team couldn't hear it.
