“Andrew, this is the menu I made.”
In the Mexican restaurant of Hua Xia Food City, Manny Pritchett handed a beautifully crafted menu to Andrew. He was obviously very confident in this menu, with a confident smile on his face.
The menu is very simple, and there are not too many dishes. After all, this is a high-end restaurant, and it is impossible to list too many messy foods. And every kind of food listed on the menu is carefully selected by Manny - Angelada, Dosdala, Gringo, Cosadia...
These names are direct transliterations of the names of Mexican dishes.
Although Mexican cuisine is one of the top ten representative cuisines in the world, it is not very well-known in China. There are only three Mexican restaurants in the whole of Yanjing. During this period, Andrew accompanied Manny to dine in these restaurants and found that the dishes here were not authentic and the taste was too poor. Although Manny is not only proficient in Mexican cuisine, he himself is Mexican and has the deepest feelings for Mexican cuisine. Therefore, he decided to open this hotel as a Mexican restaurant, and it must be the most authentic Mexican restaurant.
The dishes on the menu are all the most authentic and delicious Mexican dishes.
It's just that these dishes rarely appear in China, so they don't even have a decent name and can only be transliterated. For example, the so-called Angelica is actually a Mexican roll topped with shrimp paste, red rice, salad, and cheese. It's really hard to think of a Chinese name that can accurately describe the other characteristics of such a dish.
However, there are some brief introductions to the dishes on the menu so that diners will not be confused about what they are ordering.
There is nothing wrong with any of these.
But after browsing the menu, Andrew couldn't help but frown.
"Manny, aren't the dishes on this menu a bit too expensive?"
A serving of enchilada costs three hundred and fifty dollars, which is the price of a meal in a top luxury restaurant.
"Is it expensive?" Manny said nonchalantly, "I'm the world's best chef. Isn't my cooking worth this little money? In fact, I think my price is a bit low!"
"But ..." Andrew suddenly thought of a very serious problem -Manny's cooking skills were unique to the world's top, but he was a chef.
Although this Mexican restaurant where he is the chef is bound to attract many people's interest,... After all, this restaurant is opened in a food city, and its scale and grade are limited from the beginning. It is impossible to open the restaurant into a five-star or above hotel. So running such a small and medium-sized restaurant must have the methods of a small and medium-sized restaurant. A dish sells for hundreds of dollars...
How could the guests who dine here possibly afford it
Andrew said to Manny solemnly: "Manny, I think it would be better to lower the price of the dishes a little bit..."
"Lower it further?" Manny said unhappily, "Andrew, this is already my lowest price. Don't worry, with my reputation and the delicious Mexican food, we don't have to worry about the restaurant having no customers."
"Manny ..." Andrew tried to continue persuasion.
"Andrew, don't forget, Food King Enterprises handed this place over to me to manage!" Manny seemed a little unhappy.
Andrew could only sigh and give up.
Food City is the first step for Food King Enterprise to enter the Chinese food industry. Whether their five restaurants in Food City can dominate the Chinese food city will be a crucial goal, and among them, the Mexican restaurant run by Manny is the most important trump card.
At the same time, because of Manny's status, his power in the company is higher than his own, and seeing that Manny has made up his mind, he can only give up.
I just hope... Manny's fame and the delicious Mexican cuisine are really that attractive to the people of China.
…
At the same time, just when Andrew felt that Manny had set the restaurant's prices a bit high, in the Anran Xihun Restaurant opposite the Mexican restaurant, Han Yuyan, Tang Shanshan, and Tian Xiaodu and Wang Shiyu who came to help all expressed diametrically opposed opinions on the menu that Ye Chui brought out:
"Are the menu prices in our restaurant a little low?"
The Anran Xiehun Rice Restaurant only sells one kind of food, which is the Anran Xiehun Rice.
Of course, there are different types of sad and sad rice, including the most common sad and sad rice, which is divided into small, medium and large portions, and the prices are 10 yuan, 15 yuan, and 20 yuan respectively.
The main ecstasy of ecstasy rice is pork barbecue and Sister Han's scrambled eggs.
In addition, Ye Chuihua has developed other types of sad and ecstatic rice, such as chicken barbecued pork, beef barbecued pork, seafood barbecued pork, etc. Of course, every kind of sad and ecstatic rice is inseparable from Sister Han's scrambled eggs, and the prices are also fluctuating. The most expensive one is the supreme sad and ecstatic rice, which contains pork, chicken, beef, seafood, and Sister Han's scrambled eggs, and the price is only fifty yuan.
The average cost of a meal at Anran Xiaohun Restaurant will not exceed 25 yuan.
This is a very cheap restaurant in the entire food city. It seems a bit foolish to use such a restaurant to compete with the Mexican restaurant across the street.
"Master, I heard that the prices at the Mexican restaurant across the street are very high, with a minimum charge of three hundred dollars. Isn't the food here... a little too cheap?" Tian Xiaodu continued with some concern.
Ye Chui smiled calmly, "A meal at the restaurant across the street costs at least three hundred yuan. Come on, the people who come here to eat are ordinary citizens. How many rich people can there be? A restaurant here has set such a high standard. How many people will go to eat there?"
Ye Yang said so, Han Yuyan and Tian Xiaodu also realized something.
"That's true." Han Yuyan nodded. "What we compare with them is not only the total sales, but also the profit and customer flow. Except for the total sales, we may not be less than them, but theoretically we may not be less than them in terms of customer flow."
"Yes, that's the truth." Ye Chui nodded with a smile, "Manny is a first-class chef, but he may not be a first-class businessman."
"Brother Ye." While they were talking, someone walked into the restaurant. It was Qin Feng. Qin Feng's barbecue restaurant had also been renovated and was just to the left of the Mexican restaurant.
After the official opening of the Food City, Qin Feng's barbecue restaurant will definitely be one of the hot meals of the Gourmet City.
Barbecue as a dining style is not popular now, but that doesn't mean the food is not delicious. In fact, Qin Feng has opened several barbecue restaurants in Xizhou City, and the business has always been very good. Now that he has finally opened a restaurant in Yanjing, he is even more motivated and ready to do a big job.
The pork roast meat on the same ecstasy rice is also provided by the Qinfeng barbecue restaurant.
Although Qin Feng dropped out of college halfway through, he is a person who is willing to study hard. He has now mastered all kinds of barbecue techniques to perfection. Although in terms of taste alone, he is still not as good as Ye Chui's craftsmanship, but the difference is not much. In some ways, he can be regarded as Ye Chui's apprentice.
"Are you ready in all aspects of the restaurant?" Ye 垂 looked at Qin Feng with a smile.
Qin Feng nodded with a smile: "The hotels are in place in all aspects, and they can be officially opened at any time."
Then Qin Feng greeted Tian Xiaodu and Han Yuyan. He knew Wang Shiyu was also here, so he took out two lollipops from his pocket like a magic trick, which made Wang Shiyu very happy. This year has made Qin Feng much more mature.
"Brother Ye, I have never formally thanked you." After sitting down at the table, Qin Feng suddenly said to Ye Chui, "I was expelled from school. If I hadn't met you, I would probably still be selling mutton with my dad. Alas, I met a few old classmates in Yanjing some time ago. They have just graduated and are busy looking for jobs. They originally sympathized with me for being expelled, but when they learned that I already have three barbecue restaurants in Xizhou, and a new barbecue restaurant is about to open in the Food City, they were indescribably envious. All of this is given to me by you, Brother Ye."
Hearing Qin Feng's words, Ye Chui smiled with emotion: "It's all your own efforts that have brought you to where you are today. If it weren't for your own efforts, no matter how much I gave you, it would be useless."
"Brother Ye, I will definitely make the barbecue restaurant better and better." Qin Feng nodded hard.
"I believe it." Ye Chui patted Qin Feng's shoulder.
Tian Xiaodu laughed a few times, and said with a bit of envy: "Master, Qin Feng has opened barbecue restaurants one after another, and Dayu is going to open a restaurant on his own. When will you let me start my own business?"
"You are still far away." Yoto Kobaya, who was angry, said, "When will you wait for you to become an eight -star chef and let you leave!"
Tian Xiaodu's face suddenly drooped.
"Oh right." Ye Chui thought of something else at this time, "It seems that there will be a seven-star chef competition in the near future?"
Tian Xiaodu nodded: "Well, Qin Yiyue, Dong Qian and I were originally planning to attend, but the time is in June, which happens to be the month when the food city opens. There may be places where we need help, so we think we should not attend."
"No need, I'm enough here in the Food City, you three can go to participate." Ye Chui refused with a smile, his expression suddenly darkened, "This time, you three must bring back the seven-star chef certificates!"
"No, Master?" Tian Xiaodu cried suddenly.
The others started laughing.
"Brother Ye, should you be busy in June?" Qin Feng then asked.
Ye Cui nodded. He would be very busy at that time. Not only would he have to look after the business at Manhanlou, but he would also have to take care of the forty-three restaurants at the Food City. Strictly speaking, although Ye Cui was going to use the Desolate Rice to compete with the Mexican restaurant, he himself was not the chef of the Desolate Rice. In other words, Ye Cui was going to let Sister Han compete with Manny Prichette.
Of course, looking at Han Yuyan's calm expression, she definitely hasn't realized Ye Chui's true intention. (~^~)
