Chapter 919: The holiday is over, but business continues

Views:

Feng Yifan's remarks also won a lot of recognition from people online.

Of course, the protagonists of Su Ji tonight are destined to be Chen Xu and Luo Yu.

In particular, some people found some relevant information about the two people on the Internet.

After learning that the two people were rivals in the beginning, but ended up falling in love, they were immediately praised by many people who like various CPs.

"Oh my god, this is such a dreamlike love."

"Yes, it's like watching a martial arts movie."

"Really, really, just like the love in movies and novels."

"We really went from being rivals to lovers."

"Luo Yu is amazing. She is a role model for us women. She is amazing to be able to drive away the pastry chefs of such a high-end hotel and become a pastry chef herself."

"Of course she is amazing, otherwise she wouldn't have been chosen by Chef Feng and wouldn't have been able to work as a dessert chef at Ruo Restaurant."

"Looking at it this way, it seems like Chef Feng must have spent a lot of money to invite him, right?"

"You guys don't look carefully. Chef Feng is the creator of the one-star menu in that hotel restaurant. Can you authorize it to be used by that hotel restaurant? Luo Yu is still far inferior to Chef Feng."

"Oh, oh, oh, as expected, Chef Feng is the YYDS."

"Don't just look at Luo Yu. Chen Xu is also very good. He learned from a very famous domestic state banquet dim sum master."

"Yes, I checked Chen Xu's master. He is a genuine national-level top-grade pastry chef."

"That's a master-level existence. No wonder Chen Xu can make such good snacks."

Soon people on the Internet discovered that it seemed that the people in Feng Yifan’s two restaurants were a group of god-like masters.

"Haven't you noticed? The chefs at Su Ji and Ruo restaurants are all real big shots. If they were placed in other restaurants, they could be considered head chefs. But such a group of people actually gathered at Su Ji and Ruo restaurants."

"Hahaha, you just realized that? But this is not surprising. After all, Chef Feng is a true five-star chef."

"That's right. How many chefs in the world can get five stars?"

"It seems that I really missed out by not going to Su Ji for dinner during the National Day holiday."

"It's not that bad. There are too many people queuing up at Su Ji."

"It's okay to queue up just to eat Su Ji's food."

That evening, the discussion among everyone in Su Ji’s kitchen never stopped.

After discussing Chen Xu and Luo Yu, some people dug deeper into some other people and found that the chefs in Su Ji’s kitchen were really masters.

Even the fact that Shi Jiahui used to be the sous chef at the Shanghai Hotel was dug up.

Not to mention that Catherine, Hans and Tom all had experience working at the Perovence restaurant.

After some deduction, some people couldn't help but secretly speculate on the Internet.

"Did Chef Feng poach all the most promising chefs from Perovence Restaurant?"

When this speculation came out, many people felt that it was true.

However, when everyone thought about it carefully, they found that it didn't seem to be the case.

"Chef Feng seems to be still very young. If we talk about the chef with the most potential in Perovence Restaurant, it is obviously Chef Feng, a five-star chef in his thirties."

"It seems to be true. Chef Feng is the one with the most potential."

“But Perovence Restaurant can’t keep Chef Feng.”

"Not really. Chef Feng is now also one of the shareholders of Perovence Restaurant."

"So, this is actually the story of a top boss returning to the Novice Village?"

“Isn’t it the story of a top boss who swept away everything and then retired to the underworld?”

"Hahaha, are you guys trying to make me laugh to death? You guys are making Chef Feng's experiences abroad sound so exciting all of a sudden?"

"Isn't this more exciting than that?"

“Strong request, I want to know the story of Chef Feng’s comeback abroad, it will definitely be a great story.”

"Yes, yes, fellow writers, go interview Chef Feng for some inspiration."

Feng Yifan's experiences abroad are really fascinating. Many people want to know how he got into Perovence Restaurant and how he helped Perovence Restaurant turn around.

In the end, making the Perovence restaurant the kitchen for royal banquets again will surely be another legend.

However, many people racked their brains on the Internet but could not find any relevant information.

This also made many people unable to help but leave messages under Feng Yifan's Weibo to ask.

Some even went to Su Ruoxi's Weibo to leave a message asking.

Feng Yifan was busy all night. When he finished business and a small meeting and returned home, he learned everything from his wife.

He was a little amused when he saw it.

“Why are these people on the Internet so curious about my past experiences?”

Su Ruoxi said with a smile: "Of course, I am curious too."

At this moment, Su Ruoxi was like a little girl, lying beside her husband, staring at him with eyes full of anticipation.

Facing his wife's expectations, Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Do you really want me to tell you a story?"

Su Ruoxi said, "Tell me, don't you usually tell Ruoruo stories to put her to sleep?"

Feng Yifan suddenly felt a little helpless.

"In fact, there is not as much passion behind this as everyone thinks. When I went to Perovence Restaurant, they were about to close down."

The truth is often not that dramatic, and there aren't many things that make people feel angry.

Feng Yifan happened to go to Perovence restaurant when it was at its worst.

Originally, he was not taken seriously and was just regarded as an ordinary chef in the kitchen.

However, the operating status of the Perovence restaurant really worried him, as he might not even get paid after working for a month.

So, in order to keep his job, Feng Yifan started to discuss something with his boss.

To be precise, he was trying to persuade his boss to make some changes.

Finally, the boss was persuaded and agreed to let Feng Yifan have a try.

Many people on the Internet speculated about the resistance Feng Yifan would encounter at the time, such as the possibility of being excluded by the former chef of Perovence restaurant.

In reality, none of that happened.

Because the Perovence restaurant was really about to close at that time, who would do that kind of thing

At that time, being the chef of a Perovence restaurant was not an honor.

So it can be said that Feng Yifan successfully promoted his own menu.

As a result, the Perovence restaurant was revived.

When the boss reopened the restaurant, he invited some of his former customers to patronize the restaurant, and when he took out the menu prepared by Feng Yifan, many of the old customers were surprised.

Because those old diners are already familiar with the menu of Perovence restaurant.

And I also know the difficulties faced by restaurants.

The old diners were a little bit unconvinced that the restaurant could come up with a new menu.

But in the end, the menu that Feng Yifan brought out became an instant hit.

Soon the reputation of the Perovence restaurant was restored.

Many people come here to taste Feng Yifan's menu.

What happened afterwards was actually quite simple.

Thanks to Feng Yifan's menu, the Perovence restaurant successfully retained its three stars and received unanimous praise. It was visited by many food critics and recommended to many of their friends.

Then, the royal family received the news and sent people to taste it in advance.

After careful consideration, the royal family finally chose to let the Perovence Restaurant host the royal banquet.

Feng Yifan said to his wife seriously: "The royal banquet is not complicated, but some of the audits are stricter, and we must ensure that no accidents occur. Of course, maybe I am an accident myself."

Su Ruoxi asked curiously: "Why are you an accident?"

Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Before I went to the royal banquet, I was never announced as the chef, so I had to explain this to the royal family before I went."

Su Ruoxi was even more curious: "Why doesn't Perovence Restaurant let you be the chef?"

Feng Yifan said: "Because I refused."

Su Ruoxi asked: "Why do you refuse?"

Feng Yifan said seriously: "Because I was short of money at the time, I did not serve as the head chef, but signed a bet agreement. If I can help Perovence Restaurant keep its three stars, they must pay me enough.

And if I help them get the qualification for the royal banquet, they will give me enough shares with sufficient value. "

Su Ruoxi suddenly said, "No wonder, after you came back, you bought a house and asked us to renovate it. It turns out you really made money."

Feng Yifan hugged his wife and said, "You are amazing. You have already spent so much money, and you just realized it now?"

Su Ruoxi smiled and said, "No, I knew it before."

Feng Yifan added: "It doesn't matter. The bank card is in your hands anyway. You can use it however you want."

Su Ruoxi pouted her lips and acted like a little girl and said, "I didn't spend money recklessly."

Feng Yifan kissed his wife and said, "I know, my wife will never spend money recklessly."

Su Ruoxi smiled and said, "It's good that you know."

The couple then fell asleep in each other's arms.

The National Day holiday is finally over.

But nothing seemed to have changed much. Of course, the only change in Su Ji was that the three apprentices who were seconded by Shi Jinbin left.

This also made Su Ji’s kitchen start to become a little busy.

The first thing is to prepare the ingredients in the morning. It is much easier with the presence of three senior brothers.

Fortunately, after the experience of these days during the holidays, Lin Ruifeng and Ning Cheng have grown up and can really start helping in the kitchen.

Especially Lin Ruifeng, his progress can be said to be quite rapid. In just a few days, he has made a lot of progress in material preparation, and his efficiency and quality have been greatly improved.

Ning Cheng did not stagnate. Although his progress was not as obvious as Lin Ruifeng's, he was now able to complete a lot of work in the kitchen independently.

Little Feng Ruoruo has to go to kindergarten, so it is impossible to have snacks at Su Ji at noon.

Is this also why diners at Su Ji’s lunch always feel like something is missing

And just as Feng Yifan had expected, even though the National Day holiday was over, there were still quite a few diners at Su Ji's at noon.

Among them, many residents in the surrounding area either traveled to other places during the previous National Day holiday or did not come to eat in order to avoid the peak period.

Now that work has resumed as normal, many people naturally choose to go to Su Ji to eat a bowl of noodles or fried rice in order to save lunch time.

As a result, Su Ji’s lunch business is still quite popular.

Of course, at night, Su Ji’s business is no longer so popular.

After all, during the National Day holiday, there were still many tourists from other places visiting every night.

Now that the holiday is over, although some residents in the surrounding area occasionally come over to eat at night, after all, eating at Su Ji can save time compared to cooking at home.

But after all, the number of residents who could come over for dinner cannot be compared with the number of tourists who came during previous holidays.

Fortunately, Feng Yifan had lowered his expectations before and had told everyone about it.

So everyone is mentally prepared to a certain extent.

In terms of the results, it was not lower than everyone's lowest expectations.

It should even be said that because many locals were unable to eat at Su Ji and queue up during the previous National Day holiday, many people chose to come here to eat after the holiday, which in turn made the flow of people at dinner time exceed expectations.

After the end of the first day of business after the National Day holiday.

After Feng Yifan closed the restaurant and cleaned up, he said to everyone in all seriousness, "It seems that I had set my expectations a little low before. In fact, our Su Ji's reputation has already been established, so it's not true that there will only be one round of customers."

Shi Jiahui smiled and said, "Chef, you are so bold to think that after the National Day, our customers will plummet to the point where we can only have one round of customers a night? Aren't you underestimating our strength?"

Catherine followed up, “Yes, our Su Ji is very famous now.”

Feng Yifan smiled and said, "I am preparing for a rainy day by lowering my expectations in advance, so that if business is really bad, we can all accept it."

Ning Cheng couldn't help but say, "Master, can you say our business is bad? There are quite a few people queuing outside tonight, and at noon, I felt that there were more people queuing than during the National Day."

Lin Ruifeng said seriously: "At noon, most of the customers are takeout from next door."

Ma Xiaolong said: "Not really. There are quite a few people who sit down to eat at noon. Besides, we don't eat by table at noon, so the seats change frequently."

Chen Xu said: "So, actually our business has not gotten worse."

Luo Yu said: "This is because our Su Ji's reputation has been well-known and has won unanimous recognition from everyone, so the business cannot be bad."

Su Jinrong, who did not leave tonight, finally spoke: "Thank you all for your hard work. Su Ji has regained its current good business and has become a restaurant that many people are willing to eat at. I believe that with everyone's joint efforts, Su Ji will definitely become better."

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and then they all shouted together: "Come on, together."

Feng Yifan finally said: "Okay, that's all for tonight, everyone go back and have a good rest, we will continue tomorrow."
