Chapter 272 - Developing New Business (Part II)
An alternative version of seafood risotto and marinated steak with coconut stir-fried vegetables on land and sea is a bit of a stretch in a modern and traditional Michelin-starred restaurant, but even the most discerning diner will be tempted to appreciate the smell and aroma in person.
Although the amount of prawns and clams is not too much, and there are no other seafood to support the façade, it is enough to bring a rough and bold sea flavor to the risotto, the rice stewed with coconut milk and cream is rich and mellow under the garnish of shallots and chopped basil, and the blend of chili, fennel, lemon zest, ginger juice and garlic brings multiple aftertastes.
The marinated and grilled steak does not have the wild flavor of meat, but the more harmonious aroma has a wider audience, and the grilled and stir-fried vegetables can be eaten by even women and children.
After feasting, Duitt hummed with his bulging belly.
Xiao Yi pushed the lemon hawthorn water in his direction and said, "Drink some of this to eliminate food...... It's not like you haven't eaten well, but overeating is not good for your body. ”
"Hiccup...... I can't care about it anymore, it's so delicious!"
"That's also a control point, if it goes on like this, I don't dare to cook anything for you to eat!" Xiao Yi said helplessly, looking at Duit's round figure, he couldn't help but think of the 'big stomach king' Zode beside him, but because he is a person who practices martial arts, his metabolism is relatively vigorous, so no matter how much he eats, his body has not yet left the category of 'majestic', but thinking about it, his figure has indeed begun to lose shape recently, thinking about whether to start forcing him to lose weight, and secretly thinking viciously that in that case, Zode's expression must be very good-looking.
"By the way, what do you think of that proposal I made last time?" asked Doitt, who had recovered a little from his well-fed piglet state.
"Oh, you mean a proposal to expand your business!"
"That's right, after I mentioned it last time, you said that some flaws are not easy to solve, and I have been thinking and trying to improve the plan since then, have you seen the new proposal I gave you a few days ago!"
As he spoke, he waited expectantly for Xiao Yi's reaction.
Xiao Yi looked at Duitt with interest, and couldn't help but sigh that he really had some brains in business, and it was no wonder that he insisted on his interest even if he might upset his father at the beginning.
At the beginning, the little fat man suggested that Xiao Yi could do a few branches, because now the reputation of 'Happy Life' has really spread throughout the royal capital, if it is not for the geographical location, even the top restaurants in the original city may have to avoid its edge, in Duit's opinion, if you don't take this opportunity to seize the opportunity to expand, it is simply a missed opportunity.
However, this proposal was rejected by Xiao Yi on the spot, because how much money he makes is secondary to Xiao Yi, and his business principle has always been quality first, although the current 'happy life' restaurant is carefully built by him and can produce such an amazing effect with his ability, but it has to be said that the restaurant can operate for a long time, and the excellent chef team led by Jon in the back kitchen and the Harpy and Finch in the front office service must account for at least half of the credit.
Of course, it would be nice to be able to let more people enjoy the food he brought from another world, but there is really no manpower that can replicate enough capacity to open a branch now, and if you just add new employees to simply expand your business, you can solve the urgent need, but if you don't have the skills to reduce the quality of service and dishes, it is really not desirable.
So Xiao Yi was not very optimistic about his idea, but he didn't expect that the plan written by Duyte on a piece of paper to Xiao Yi a few days ago was really surprised by the new way, and the content was briefly summarized to put forward the concept of takeaway in later generations, and also pointed out that the key is the way of ordering and delivery, although the proposed solution is inseparable from the original model and imprisonment, but to have this idea has to say that his business acumen is really very lively.
"Basically, it's still feasible!" Xiao Yi said with a deliberately straight face, and Doyter continued to wait for the next step with an expression of "I'll just say it".
"But there are still a few key points in your plan that still need to be considered!"
"It's good if it's feasible, my dad said that no plan is perfect from the beginning, but you can't hold back because of this, only in the implementation process to constantly find a way to fill in the gaps can really succeed, otherwise you will always be able to stay in the fantasy and achieve nothing!
What's the problem, we're trying to figure it out!"
Xiao Yi listened and nodded: "Brother Solari's words are indeed very incisive truths, what he said alone is just a concept, and it still takes a lot of experience and hard work to really implement it, if you want to inherit your father's mantle in business, there are still many things to learn." ”
Seeing that Xiao Yi said seriously, Duitt also put away his playful attitude and listened carefully.
"First of all, there is the question of manpower, according to the direction of your thinking, if you cover most of the city, how many people are needed, have you calculated, this also includes setting up a fixed place and place for ordering food, otherwise you can't send people to ask one by one.
The second is the speed of response, the faster the time it takes to get the order back here and then the meal to its destination, the better, what means of transport is used, and who bears the cost.
The last big problem, the biggest feature here is the taste and service, it is indeed convenient to have food delivered to your door, but it is not too rare for some very wealthy guests, who have their own servants to do it for them. So in the final analysis, it is necessary to ensure the taste of the dishes is the right way. In the process of transportation, the form and time of delivery have a great impact on the taste of the food, and even if some adjustments are made to meet this demand during cooking, it will not improve much.
In general, these problems are not completely unsolvable, but the costs involved are very huge, and if you want to lose money, I am afraid that the feasibility of this plan is really not great......"
After Xiao Yi finished speaking, Doit's face looked very lost, and he said in annoyance:
"Hey, I'm still too stupid! I thought it was a good idea, but I didn't expect the loophole to be so big, I wouldn't have wasted so much effort if I knew it!"
"Ahh
"Hmm, didn't you just say ......?"
"I'm not done yet, but I'll explain to you later, I just sent someone to deliver a dish to Solari and Brother Given, and I think the time should be back!"
As soon as the words fell, the door of the private room was pushed open, and a small figure walked in.
