After a short interview, Gu Chen walked into the restaurant, and immediately saw Li Chengmu sitting next to the cash register and Sun Zhengcai, the general manager of the Beijing Hotel, the two were talking in a low voice, he hurriedly stepped forward and shook Sun Zhengcai's hand with a smile, and said: "I'm really sorry that I couldn't meet Mr. Sun yesterday because of something." Sun Zhengcai arrived in Hong Kong yesterday afternoon, and was received by Li Chengmu.

"Mr. Gu is too polite, you are busy with affairs, and I have nothing important, what is the difference between meeting yesterday and seeing you today." Sun Zhengcai was polite, and then said: "Just now I was talking to Mr. Li about the decoration of the restaurant, to tell the truth, before I came, I was still worried about whether the decoration style of the restaurant could match the charm and culture contained in the Tan family's cuisine. ”

The history of Tanjia cuisine is more than 100 years, although it is not long from the perspective of China's more than 2,000 years of feudal history, but it is the only remaining official cuisine in China, and its significance is far from being comparable to other private dishes. In order to highlight the Chinese food culture contained in the dish, when designing the interior decoration, Gu Chen focused on highlighting the four points of high-end, retro, elegance and atmosphere, and the design drawings have been revised nearly ten times.

In addition to the decoration style, tables, chairs and tableware are as retro as possible, even the waiter's clothing is also cheongsam, and there is some insider story when it comes to this cheongsam. When discussing the issue of the waiter's clothing, Gu Chen and Li Chengmu both agreed to adopt ancient costumes.

But the two have different opinions on which style of costume should be adopted for this ancient costume. It is well known that Chinese women's ancient costumes include Hanfu and cheongsam, and Li Chengmu feels that the cheongsam originated from the Manchu people, which was unique to the Qing Dynasty and had historical and cultural limitations. Hanfu is different, since the beginning of historical records, Han people began to wear Hanfu, which has a history of thousands of years, and wearing Hanfu can better highlight Chinese culture.

Gu Chen completely agreed with Li Chengmu's idea, but he felt that the cheongsam was more suitable, for the simple reason that the cheongsam could better highlight the femininity of women. To put it bluntly, wearing a cheongsam is more pleasing to the eye and can attract the attention of customers, so he also specially designed two cheongsams, which abandon the dross and add more modern elements, which can perfectly show the woman's curves when worn on the body.

"Hehe, it's good to be able to enter Mr. Sun's eyes, and it's not in vain for my hard work." Gu Chen exchanged a few more polite words with Sun Zhengcai, then turned to Li Chengmu and asked, "Manager Li, everything is ready, the guests should arrive one after another in a while, don't make any mistakes." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a commotion outside, and the three of them quickly got up and walked to the door, but saw Zeng Zhiwei and Wang Jing, two fat people, coming together: "Hahaha, I said that you two won't stay together for a long time, why is this longer and more similar." ”

Wang Jing has known Gu Chen for a long time, and he has collaborated on several movies, and the relationship is also close, so he didn't care about Gu Chen's jokes, and said with a smile: "Chen Shao, you are wrong, I have always thought that I am more handsome than Zhiwei." ”

Zeng Zhiwei immediately replied: "I think you are jealous that I am slimmer than you." ”

"Haha......" The conversation between the two immediately caused a burst of laughter from several people present. After laughing, Gu Chen said, "You guys go inside and sit inside." ”

A waiter immediately stepped forward and led Zeng Zhiwei and Wang Jing into the restaurant, and it didn't take long for the stars who received the invitation to begin to appear one by one, first Zhou Yunfa and his girlfriend Chen Huilian appeared sweetly hand in hand, then Zhang Guorong, Anita Mui and Zhong Chuhong arrived together, and then Liu Dehua, Guo Fucheng, Li Shu and others appeared one after another, only more than half an hour, and everyone who received the invitation arrived.

More than a dozen people sat in the living room on the third floor of the restaurant for a while, and a waiter came to invite everyone downstairs. Also at the door of the restaurant, the reporters who were originally confined to the cordon were arranged to stand more than two meters away from the door at this time, and after all the guests were standing in the guest seats on the right side of the door, Li Chengmu walked to the main door with a microphone and said to the reporter: "Maybe most of you don't know me yet, and the next is Li Chengmu, the general manager of Tang Palace Banquet Catering Co., Ltd., first of all, thank you very much to all the guests and reporters for coming to attend the opening ceremony of the first restaurant of Tan Jiaxuan Catering Company under Tang Palace Banquet, Here I would like to briefly introduce to you the history and characteristics of Tan's cuisine. ”

Tan Jiacai is the family heirloom feast of the late Qing Dynasty bureaucrat Tan Zongjun, because it is the list of the two years of Tongzhi, so it is also called "the list of eyes". The cooking methods of Tanjia cuisine are mainly burned, stewed, simmered, relied on, and steamed, and "long in dry goods", "good at cooking sea eight treasures in broth"; Its salty and sweet are delicious, suitable for both north and south, the seasoning pays attention to the original taste, the production pays attention to the heat enough, the material is ruthless, the dishes are soft and rotten, so the taste is delicious, the texture is soft and tender. ”

"Tanjia cuisine has become its own cuisine, with more than 200 kinds of dishes, including 'Yellow Braised Shark Fin', 'Steamed Chicken with Caoru', 'Abalone with Oyster Sauce', 'Bird's Nest in Clear Soup' and other classic dishes. Finally, I would like to emphasize that Tan family cuisine is the only preserved private cuisine of ancient government in China, which is exclusively operated by the Beijing Hotel, which means that before today, only Beijing hotels in the whole world can eat real Tan family cuisine, and if there are other places, it must be counterfeit fakes. And after today, in addition to the Beijing Hotel, Hong Kong's Tan Jiaxuan can also eat authentic Tan family cuisine. ”

"Okay, that's all I have to say, but before we end the conversation, there is one more thing to announce, after the ceremony, all journalists can enter the restaurant with their press cards and eat for free. Originally, according to the chairman's meaning, the citizens present today were invited for free, but the restaurant area was limited, and it was really impossible to entertain so many people, so it could only take the way of lottery, and all those who won the lottery could dine for free, and the quota was 50 people. As for those who have not won the lottery, please rest assured that the company will give them a cash voucher with an amount of 100 yuan, and there is no upper limit on the number of gifts, until 3:30. After the official opening of the restaurant, you can use this voucher to offset the consumption of 100 yuan, the official business hours are half past 5 tonight, and you are welcome to visit, I believe that Tan Jiaxuan will not let you down. ”

"Now I announce the official start of the ribbon cutting."
