Belly Round called to inform me of the news of the gourmet cooking competition. Unexpectedly, after Jiang Yichen thought about it, he said he was unwilling to participate.

"What, you're dizzy, such a good opportunity is wasted, how much does it cost people to advertise on TV, do you know? Oh, isn't it too low-grade? Let me tell you, this is not one of those messy competitions, the authority of the City Gourmets Association ......" Thinking that the other party did not know the nature of the event, he hurriedly explained in detail.

"Don't guess, that's not what I meant." Jiang Yichen interrupted the words of the round belly.

There are three reasons why he doesn't want to participate in the cooking competition: First, the current Dingxiangyuan is not unknown, and it has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people among the vast number of mid-range diners in Lingjiang City. There's no need to use an event to make a name for yourself and attract business.

Secondly, the dishes of the cooking competition are not only limited to taste and aroma, but also a comprehensive investigation of color, aroma, taste, meaning and shape, which requires high personal skills and literacy of chefs. Ding Xiangyuan is mainly based on spicy hot, relying on special seasonings and island vegetables, so the store has not hired a professional chef so far. Not to mention the existing kitchen staff, the knife worker alone will not be able to pass the test.

As for going outside temporarily to ask for the help of a professional chef, it is even more unnecessary.

In addition, the store is very busy at present, and if you take out special manpower to participate in the competition, you have to make a lot of preparations, which will definitely affect your own work, and it is not worth it.

He roughly explained the above reasons to the other party, and the conclusion was to forget it.

"Well, that's right. Your Dingxiangyuan is too awesome now, and there is really no shortage of free advertisements for it. The belly was round and groaned, and then relieved.

A moment later, he proposed to build yì again. It's nothing to participate or not, but the scale of this event is not small, and many first-line old restaurants and restaurants in Lingjiang will send the strongest people to play. It can be described as a gathering of heroes, a gluttonous feast, and it is a pity to miss it.

He knows the people of the organizing committee, and he can get a few VIP tickets in the front row when the time comes. When the time comes, let's go to the scene together and be an audience for a long time. Of course, the preliminary round and the like are exempted, at least until the quarterfinals.

For this mention, Jiang Yichen immediately agreed. I am already preparing a seafood restaurant, so it will definitely be beneficial to see the works of many top chefs in the high-end restaurant industry in Lingjiang.

You must know that cooking dishes can often be seen on TV, pictorial magazines and other media, but it is completely different from watching it up close.

By the way, I have to pull Ma Detao together to broaden my horizons. That guy will be the big shopkeeper of the seafood restaurant in the future, and he will have a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

The two chatted a few more words, and said that they were waiting for his notice on this matter, and then hung up the phone.

Jiang Yichen put the phone back on the coffee table, and continued to rest on the sofa with his hands on the pillow, thinking thoughtfully.

Speaking of this seafood restaurant, it is not small from what I originally expected, but I didn't expect that finding a shop would become a trouble.

Since the issue of the right to use the sea area has been resolved. Ma Detao turned his main energy to the preparation of the seafood restaurant. During this time, he ran a lot of places in the city of Lingjiang. At the same time, I also searched the Internet for various related information, but the progress of the work has been slow, and I have not yet found a suitable one.

The guy was afraid that things would be in vain, and the manager's hat flew away, and now he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

But when you think about it, it's not surprising that this is the case. Due to the high positioning of the restaurant in the plan. The grade of the building, the business area, the parking lot and various hardware facilities can not be ambiguous. Although the location does not have to be in the downtown area, a little remote can be, but the transportation is convenient, and the surrounding environment must not be dirty and messy.

It is true that shops that meet the above conditions are not so easy to appear.

As for the ready-made high-end restaurants and restaurants, the number of them is relatively small. Moreover, many of them are time-honored brands, with their own stable customer base, and their business is operating normally, so they will naturally not go out of business and transfer lightly.

It's not like the small restaurants that can be seen everywhere on the street, this one is open today, and the one is closed tomorrow, and the flow rotation is frequent, and latecomers can join in at any time.

Forget it, this kind of thing has to be fate, and you can't be in a hurry, so let it go.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yichen turned over on the sofa and fell asleep in a daze after a while.

****************************************************

In the evening, Jiang Yichen used dinner from the kitchen in the office, and then drove back to his rental house on Kwong Ping Street.

As soon as he entered the house, a rich mixed aroma hit him, and the fragrance of green onions was particularly prominent.

On second thought, it should be the taste of mille-feuille.

Although it is one of his main industries, he rarely eats this kind of food because he usually stays in Dingxiangyuan. Therefore, it is better to be familiar with the smell of green onions alone.

Changed into slippers and walked into the living room, and sure enough, I saw the TV turned on, and Ma Detao, who was wearing a dark blue autumn coat, was sitting on the sofa, eating a bite of cake and a mouthful of beer. On the coffee table in front of him were several yellow paper bags, as well as a glass beer bottle.

"Hey, I'm really going to enjoy it." Jiang Yichen glanced at it, then walked towards his room with his bag.

"Where can I compare to your big boss Jiang, there are guys in the kitchen who are waiting for you when you eat, and you are about to catch up with the emperor Lao'er to eat. Hey, by the way, why doesn't the staff canteen of Ding Xiangyuan serve this cake? Save me having to wait in a long queue to buy outside. Ma Detao turned his head and raised a Jianyi.

"Staff cafeteria? That's not enough to do that. Jiang Yichen shook his head.

Jokes aside, the market supply of mille-feuille has remained in short supply so far, and I don't know how many times the dealers have asked for an increase in production, but they have been unable to meet the limited output of special seasonings. As for the staff canteen, it is simply not possible.

"Look, alas, capitalists are capitalists, and they are reluctant to give any good things to their employees, and it is in vain to be trained and educated by the party for many years." Ma Detao took a sip of beer and sighed.

Jiang Yichen didn't bother to pay attention to it, and unscrewed the doorknob to enter the room.

Mille-feuille is a food that is very appetizing to Ma Detao, and he used to buy and eat it often. However, it wasn't until I joined the team that I learned that Kou Fuduo and Ding Xiangyuan belonged to the same boss, that is, the roommate who had been mediocre in the first three years of college, but suddenly had a bizarre outbreak before graduation.

At that time, he felt that his brain was completely insufficient, and he really couldn't use common sense to understand this phenomenon, and even wondered if the other party was possessed by alien aliens like in fantasy comics. In order to confirm this speculation, he also deliberately mentioned several things that happened on campus in the first two years while chatting, but the other party's response was not abnormal. This also made him feel that his IQ was obviously declining, so he quickly stopped and didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Jiang Yichen cleaned up the room and was about to open his laptop to surf the Internet, but suddenly heard an exclamation from outside:

"Hey, Chenzi, come out and take a look! Koufu is on TV. ”

It's strange, I haven't received any news from a TV reporter recently, what's going on? Jiang Yichen was puzzled after hearing this, so he opened the door and walked out.

"Look, look, it's still Qiongzhou Tourism Satellite TV." Ma Detao stopped eating and stretched out his right arm to point at the television.

Jiang Yichen looked over and saw a beautiful young woman holding a microphone in the TV screen, and the posture should be a host. Behind her, there is a food store, and above the window hangs a triangular banner with the words "Koufudo" printed on it. Outside the sales window of the shop, there is a long queue.

Jiang Yichen immediately sat on the single sofa on one side, wanting to see what was going on.

After looking at it for a while, I figured out that this was a new food program launched by Qiongzhou Tourism Satellite TV, the host traveled around the country, and the theme was to discover food snacks with local characteristics in various places, and introduce them to the audience one by one. This stop arrived in Lingjiang City, and I don't know if it was by accident or recommended by whom, so I turned the camera on Koufuduo. (To be continued......)
