Chapter Seventy-Seven: Catching Ducks on the Shelf
Luo Qi said that there is no sirloin steak in the store, which really makes me speechless, such a big Western restaurant, there is not even sirloin steak......
Blame me for being so talkative, why did you recommend this dish to that woman just now?
Since there was no such dish in the restaurant, I had to ask the customers to change the dishes, so I took a deep breath and walked over to the beautiful woman with sunglasses on my face.
At this moment, the sunglasses on the beautiful woman's face were still not removed, and she took out a stack of tarot cards from her bag at some point, and was fiddling with relish.
"That...... Lady...... There's something I'd like to discuss with you. ”
I whispered, my voice a little stumbling because I didn't know how to explain it.
"What's the matter?"
The woman in sunglasses looked up at me slightly, the expression on her face was not angry, especially because she was wearing sunglasses, she couldn't see her eyes, and I didn't know how she was feeling now.
"That's right, all the sirloin steaks in our store are sold out, ma'am, let's see if you can change to a different dish."
It would be unprofessional to tell her that there is no sirloin steak in this restaurant at all, and it would have happened anyway, so I might as well lie to him that all the steaks in the store are sold out.
In addition, if the steak is sold out, it will not cause disgust to the customer, and in general, the customer will definitely express their understanding and change the dish.
I felt that I was too smart, because I was sure that the woman in sunglasses would definitely change the dishes, so I smiled and handed over the menu.
Unexpectedly, the woman in sunglasses lowered her head and continued to fiddle with her tarot cards, and her cards had already taken up a large position on the table, and there was no place to put it on the menu.
The woman listed the cards one by one, posing as a divination, and she didn't pay any attention to me, which made me stand by stupidly for several minutes, which was very embarrassing.
"That...... Ma'am, did you hear what I just said? ”
I held the menu in my hand, hunched over and whispered. The attitude is quite humble.
As a result, after listening to my words, the woman raised her head slightly and looked at me again, she opened her mouth slightly and said to me, "I'm not going to change the dish, since you recommended sirloin steak, then I want to eat that today." ”
Her tone was flat but resolute, as if ten wagons couldn't pull it back......
"But...... But the steaks in the store were all sold out. ”
I explained with a smile, but the woman smiled slightly and replied, "Sold out?" Then go out and buy, the supermarket outside shouldn't be closed yet, right? ”
What she said really made me powerless to refute......
After saying that, the woman began to fiddle with the tarot cards on the table again.
I looked at her attentive and thought to myself that this woman must have something wrong with her brain...... It's okay to bring sunglasses to the restaurant to eat on the big night, but it's still so unkind......
Although I have some anger in my heart, I can't get angry with this woman because the customer is God.
I could only laugh awkwardly, and then hurriedly left downstairs.
When Luo Qi saw me going downstairs, he immediately frowned and said, "Didn't you tell you before, don't leave the second floor when you go to work, especially when there are guests." ”
"Brother Luo, the situation is special now!"
I opened my mouth to explain, and then told me that the woman in sunglasses upstairs was going to eat sirloin steak alive and dead.
After I finished speaking, Luo Qi looked at me with complaining eyes and said, "You, why don't you be careful, there is no sirloin steak on our menu at all, but you introduce it to the guests, fortunately, the boss is not here these days, otherwise he will know and will definitely punish you." ”
The owner of the western restaurant is the sissy named Pete, who is said to be on a business trip these days so he has been away from the store.
Actually, I want that Pete to punish me, it's better to fire me, so that I don't have to work, and I was fired, and Bao Xiaotao can't blame me.
But now is not the time to think about that, and solving the woman in sunglasses right now is the key.
Because the woman in sunglasses wanted to eat sirloin steak alive or dead, I asked Roach if he could send someone to the nearby supermarket to buy ingredients.
Roach squinted at me, then sighed and said, "Now the staff in the store is not idle at all, and there is no one who can leave." ”
After speaking, he glanced at me, and then whispered, "Why don't you go buy ingredients, then I'll help you keep an eye on the second floor." ”
As if he had decided, he pushed me out of the store without even having the time to change my clothes.
That's how I got out of the restaurant, but where is there a supermarket selling steaks nearby, how do I know?
In desperation, I could only turn to the mobile phone map, and as a result, I found that the nearest supermarket was one kilometer away, and it closed at nine o'clock, so there was not much time left.
I hurriedly stopped the car and rushed to the supermarket, and when I got to the supermarket, I asked the clerk directly if they sold sirloin steak, and the clerk shook his head and said that they only had ordinary steaks.
Because there is a relatively large supermarket nearby, there is no sirloin steak even in it, and there must be no ordinary farmers' shops......
Forget it, there is no sirloin steak, just make do with ordinary steak, anyway, this steak is almost the same after frying, I still don't believe that the woman in sunglasses can eat differently.
I immediately bought two regular steaks and took a taxi back to the restaurant.
Originally, I could just give the steak to the back kitchen, but I didn't expect to get a more big news at this time, the chef in the back kitchen asked for leave in advance because he was not feeling well, and he left a few minutes before I came back.
After learning the news, I looked at Roach with some complaints, obviously he knew that I was going to bring the steak back to the chef to make it, why did he let the chef go?
Roach spread his hands at me, indicating that he was also helpless, saying that the chef suddenly had a terrible stomach ache, and if he didn't let him go to the hospital, he was afraid that he would die.
I sighed helplessly, and asked Roach with the ingredients I bought, "So what now?" Who's going to make the steak for the lord on the second floor? ”
Luo Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at me and said, "Lin Mu, you know how to cook, right?" ”
"Huh?"
I was stunned, looked at Luo Qi with wide eyes, and said, "Brother Luo, you let me fry the steak?" ”
Roach nodded heavily, then patted me on the shoulder and said, "I'll tell you the truth, I've never cooked, I can't turn on the stove, and the other waiters in the store are about the same as me, so I can only ask you about this." ”
"......"
I opened my mouth to say that although I had cooked, I had never cooked a steak......
But before I could say that, I was wheeled into the kitchen by Roach.
He pushed me in, then turned and left, telling me to use whatever was in the kitchen.
I'm really speechless enough, it's all about catching ducks on the shelves!
