Chapter 174: The Golden Turtle Annunciation

Huang Hao said: "How dare you? I just heard that my brother has been nagging his old man in my ear, and I also admire him very much." I heard that you won a prize at a chef's contest but refused to accept it?

"Participating in the competition is just to let those gringos understand our Chinese food culture. A chef's highest level is not how delicious his dishes are, but the same as practicing martial arts. Swallow the sun and moon in your fist, there are mountains and rivers under your feet, and there will never be the highest. ”

Huang Hao was slightly stunned and said, "The old man's speech is really worthy of his reputation." ”

"I know you don't believe me, so I'll cook you a few dishes at noon that you've eaten but never met before. ”

Engineer Li Yang couldn't hold back his excitement for a long time, and interjected: "Is the old man planning to burn that turtle turtle?"

Fang Erhai smiled slightly, did not answer, visited the kitchen, and made some suggestions from time to time, while talking eloquently. China's food culture is broad and profound, because of the vast land and vast things, and because the Chinese nation is a nation that admires food very much, Chinese cuisine has been divided into eight major cuisines since ancient times, Shandong, Sichuan, Suzhou, Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, Hui, Hunan, each cuisine has its own unique characteristics, and the names of the dishes are also varied.

"And I'm waiting for the finale of the dish, which will be kept secret for the time being. ”

Huang Hao laughed and said, "Old man, you have whetted our appetite." ”

"What are you doing so happily? While speaking, Yu Yan walked out of the elevator. Seeing Fang Erhai, she looked surprised, and naturally shouted, "Hey, Dad, I was just about to call you." ”

"You can't seek personal interest during work, please call our chef. Fang Erhai suppressed his smile and said seriously, "Jin Dong, good morning! I'm Chef Fang, please lecture the chairman!"

"Uh...... I'm looking for you. Together with the decoration workers, we have a total of about 70 people, you run a seven-table home-cooked meal, ten dishes and one soup per table, and there is a shortage of manpower at present, so please take care of the old man during this time. ”

Fang Erhai said: "These renovation workers are our first guests, and home-cooked food can also be cooked with good taste. I implore Chairman Kim to allow me to serve the final finale. ”

"What dish?"

Huang Hao said with a smile: "Old man, Chairman Jin asked you, you can't keep it a secret now." ”

"The recipe is actually very simple, just one soft-shelled turtle. ”

Yu Yan said: "Is there anything special about soft-shelled turtle?"

"The name of this dish is the Annunciation of the Golden Turtle. ”

Yu Yan asked in surprise: "How to report the good news?"

"Allow me to sell a pass first, and if I can, I'll go and prepare it right now. Fang Erhai grinned.

"Okay, there you go. ”

The four of them took advantage of the morning to hold a meeting in the conference room, and the layout of the entire hotel was determined, and then the date of the hotel's opening was also finalized. The date is set for January 20, 2012.

Then Yu Yan talked about the ten-day business trip with Fang Yu on December 10, learning the mode of foreign hotel management, and paving the way for our Zhengyuan Hotel to embark on the international track in the future.

In the past ten days, Yu Yan has assigned the work tasks and goals in detail, as well as various emergencies that may be encountered. Before you know it, it's noon.

When Yu Yan came out of the conference room, she saw Fang Erhai directing everyone to sit in the restaurant downstairs. Seeing Yu Yan, Fang Erhai walked over happily: "Chairman, everything is in place, can you serve food?" ”

Yu Yan smiled and replied, "Yes." ”

"Then I have a reluctant request, please be sure to approve it by the chairman. ”

"Say it. ”

"Ask my apprentice to pass the food. ”

Apprentice, what apprentice? When Huang Hao was wondering, he saw Yu Yan stand up, smile and say, "Okay, master." ”

What, the chairman is this Fang Erhai's apprentice? Really let the chairman serve the food? Just kidding! Huang Hao waved his hand again and again, and Yu Yan said with a smile: "Brother doesn't know, my skills are all taught by my father." I was his only apprentice, so I was the perfect fit. Sit down for a while, and I'll change my clothes. ”

After Yu Yan left, Fang Yu stood up and prepared to start making noise. He clapped his hands and said to everyone: "Everyone, let me tell you a good news, today our chairman will personally serve the food, and the senior technician will personally take charge of the kitchen." Those who sit can enjoy both the eyes and the mouth. Whether the people are beautiful or not, everyone will judge, whether the food is good or not, everyone has the final say!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw Yu Yan wearing a short cheongsam, a charming smile, and a graceful figure, which immediately attracted bursts of applause.

Fang Yu shouted loudly: "Ask everyone, are people beautiful?"

"Beautiful!" the crowd erupted in applause.

"Ladies and gentlemen, during work, we prohibit drinking, here, I use tea instead of wine, toast everyone. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Fang!"

"Cheers!"

"One more thing. Huang Hao couldn't help but stand up and said, "Under the leadership of our President Fang, the atmosphere is very warm. Thank you Mr. Fang for your hospitality, I might as well reveal it slightly, please pay special attention to the last dish. If you think the food is okay, then please spread it out more, and if you think it's not good, please also give your valuable opinions, and we will give you a cash reward. ”

What wishful dragon and phoenix celebrate!

What fate is destined for the three lives and blessings of the stars!

Look, even the name of this dish is very poetic, ten home-cooked dishes are quickly served, I have never seen the workers eat so happily and with relish, everyone is eating, while nodding again and again. As the saying goes, it is difficult to reconcile, but for Fang Erhai, it is not the dishes that are "difficult to adjust", but the people.

When Fang Yu stood up and asked everyone, what was surprising was that everyone gave a thumbs up, and the word "good" echoed in the restaurant for a long time.

"The finale you've been waiting for is here. Yu Yan held the plate and walked over with a smile.

Huang Hao smiled: "What is this dish called?" As he spoke, he was about to move his chopsticks.

"Brother, don't worry. Yu Yan smiled lightly and slapped him lightly.

"Then I'll take a sip of soup first, and I'll be fine. Huang Hao glanced at the soft-shelled turtle on the plate, the color looked okay, I don't know how it tasted? He scooped a small spoonful, and couldn't help frowning, it was bland, and it didn't look special, didn't it fail?

"Everyone, wait until the other tables are ready. Yu Yan smiled mysteriously.

Could it be that there is any secret in this? Huang Hao stared at this dish closely, and after looking at it for a long time, he didn't see a single reason.

When the dishes were ready, Fang Erhai walked out of the kitchen with a smile and said, "This dish is the Golden Turtle Annunciation, in fact, its full name is called the Golden Turtle Lianlian Annunciation." If you take a sip of the soup now, it will be bland and not delicious, but if you hit it twice on its back before eating, it will change drastically, and there will be unexpected surprises. ”

Huang Hao couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, and decisively knocked on the turtle shell: "Knock"!

I saw that the turtle's originally drooping head suddenly lifted up with these two knocks, and its mouth suddenly opened, and two words popped out of it: "Ping-An-"

As soon as the words fell, a stream of heat emerged from around the soft-shelled turtle, and the originally calm soup suddenly boiled at this moment. Take another sip and the taste is incomparably delicious.

The crowd suddenly boiled with the soup, and everyone stood up in unison and thundered at Fang Er's poster.

Huang Hao said in surprise: "Old man, please introduce the mystery of this dish." It's just amazing. ”

Fang Erhai smiled and said: "Actually, it itself can't speak, the key is that there is a breath of gas inside it, all the flavors are locked in this shell, knock on its turtle shell, it will make these two sounds very vividly, and when it goes away, the taste will spread." ”

Huang Hao smiled: "The taste is indeed delicious, but I don't know how much MSG is added in it?"

Fang Erhai said: "No MSG is added, this delicious taste comes entirely from the blending of ingredients inside." ”

Fang Yu laughed and invited Fang Erhai to take a seat, and solemnly announced: "Next, I announce that Fang Erhai will serve as the head chef of Zhengyuan Hotel. ”

"Wow, the food he cooked was delicious. ”

"yes. It turns out that eating vegetables can also bring so much pleasure to eating. ”

Seeing everyone talking and praising each other, Fang Erhai stood up and said loudly: "When the hotel officially opens, you can not only taste the soft-shelled turtle and report safety, but also enjoy the carp jumping over the dragon gate, and even enjoy a dish I just invented recently." ”

Huang Hao asked curiously, "Old man, what kind of dish?"

"Fairy Yao Chi Dance. ”

This aroused Huang Hao's incomparable curiosity: "Oh, please tell us about it first." ”

Fang Yu smiled: "Don't ask, it must be a secret." ”

Huang Hao said: "It's okay, let the old man introduce first." I wondered, could this be a signature dish in our hotel?"

"Okay, then I'll reveal a little bit first. "Fang Erhaidao," the so-called fairy Yaochi dance, in layman's terms, is to take a piece of radish and carve it into the shape of Xiao Yan, and then add some ingredients to it, which is the so-called clothes. This is what a fairy looks like. ”

"Huh?" Huang Hao listened with great interest.

Fang Erhai sighed and said, "It's too profound, I'm afraid you won't understand." Well, I'll tell you in the vernacular. The so-called fairy Yaochi dance is a beautiful woman who takes off her clothes and dances in the soup. ”

Fang Yu was taken aback: "Ah, isn't that just a bath?"

Huang Hao was stunned, and then laughed: "This name is quite nice, but will it make the guests feel a little disgusting, or will it make the guests feel that we are a little 'color'?"

"That is the eyes of your world. All I can say is that I'm very sorry for your thoughts. ”

Huang Hao said: "But old man, why do you have to carve a piece of radish into the shape of your sister?"

Fang Erhai said: "Let's ask the women in the world, who is more beautiful than Xiao Yan? Moreover, she is the chairman of the Zhengyuan Hotel, it is very appropriate to name her image." Besides, this dish only has novelty and interest, and no color. ”
