Chapter 603 Crouching Dragon and Phoenix
Although Ma Lu said that the restaurant did not need manpower, in fact Sun Mei helped a lot on the first day he joined the job.
Ma Lu won the Master of Kitchen Competition, which further enhanced the popularity of Universe Infinite Canteen and brought a new wave of popularity.
The restaurant reopened, and the customer flow was twice as much as usual. The small tables were placed in front of the Aijia grocery store across the road, which made the grocery store owner Wang Fengle grin from ear to ear.
Even if everyone scans the QR code and orders by themselves, Ma Youyou and He Xiaoqian are only responsible for serving the dishes and clearing the dishes, and they are not busy at all with cleaning.
Although it was Sun Mei's first day to work at Universe Infinite Canteen, she came from a family of chefs and had been helping out in her family's restaurant since she was a child, working in both the front and back kitchens.
It was easy to get started as a waiter, and the three of them worked together to sell out all the dishes for the day before one o'clock in the afternoon.
He Xiaoqian hung up the closing sign and closed the restaurant door.
Sun Mei put the last dirty plate on the dining cart and watched Ma Youyou push into the kitchen. He turned to Ma Lu and said, "What is the restaurant lacking now? I will go to the vegetable market to purchase it later, or contact the supplier." Delivery?"
"No purchase, no delivery," Ma Lu said, "That's it for today. Let's get off work after dinner."
"Ah, I'm getting off work now, but aren't there still four hours before dinner? There should be plenty of time to replenish the goods before continuing the business." Sun Mei said.
"Old Wang is already working very hard, don't add to his workload," Ma Lu said.
"Then you come up. I see you have been resting on your phone this morning."
"No, I won't go up!" Ma Lu said, "I said, when I come back I will I won’t cook anymore.”
“Why?” Sun Mei frowned, “You enjoyed it during the competition. You shouldn’t hate cooking.”
"There is no reason, I won't," Ma Lu was forced to say directly, "I am the boss, how can the boss cook properly? You just asked me to cook, why don't you cook?"
"Of course I can cook," Sun Mei was overjoyed when he heard this, "Mr. Ma, are you planning to let me go to the kitchen?"
Ma Lu almost gave himself a mouthful.
However, Sun Mei's words also reminded him that with Sun Mei's cooking skills, working as a waiter in the lobby would be a waste of resources.
A good capitalist should know how to maximize the value of his employees.
As the chef of the century-old Songxiangju restaurant, Sun Mei is not as powerful as Lao Wang, but he still has hard skills on hand.
What should I do? Give her a separate kitchen to cook?
In this way, the Universe Infinite Canteen will have two kitchens, and the cooking efficiency will be improved. It can sell more dishes every day and make more money.
This is an ideal situation, but in practice there are many problems.
Although Sun Mei's skills are good, it remains to be discussed whether he can replace Lao Wang after training, or at least be close to Lao Wang's level.
In addition, Malu’s ingredients are all brought back from other places and are kept secret.
Being a waiter is okay, but if Sun Mei is really asked to go into the kitchen to deal with it, it will be difficult not to reveal her secret.
Forget it, just observe it for a while and talk about it later.
Ma Youyou went into the kitchen and brought out the staff meal made by Lao Wang, and He Xiaoqian set out the dishes.
The four of them sat down to eat. Sun Mei picked up his chopsticks and put them down again when he thought of something, "Is there a portion of rice missing? Where's Chef Wang's?"
"He won't eat." Ma Youyou said.
"Why, he has been tired for most of the day. To be honest, I find it a bit incredible. How can he cook so many meals by himself? The cooking speed must be too scary." Sun Mei sighed.
"This is nothing for Lao Wang, let's eat."
Ma Lu clapped his hands, He Xiaoqian first put a piece of roast pork in the new employee's bowl, and then gave it to Ma Lu too Chunks.
Sun Mei thanked He Xiaoqian and picked up the chopsticks again, only to find that the other three were looking at her. I couldn't help but was startled again, "What's wrong? Do I have any pre-dinner activities?"
"No, please eat. You have been busy all day," Ma Lu said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Sun Mei was confused, "Then I will eat." After she said that, Put the piece of meat in your mouth.
As soon as she took the first bite, she realized something was wrong and her pupils shrank suddenly.
The taste is simply...amazing! ! !
Sun Mei was shocked. Is this really the level of employee meals? Even the signature dishes costing thousands of dollars in Songxiangju are not so delicious.
She came to work at the Universe Infinite Canteen because of Ma Lu.
Because I had seen Ma Lu’s strength in the Master of Cooking competition before, I had the idea of observing and learning from up close.
She didn’t know much about Lao Wang, the actual chef of the restaurant. Ma Lu said before that she could ask Lao Wang any questions she had, but she didn’t take it seriously.
She was just convinced by Malu, her arrogance was still there, and she still maintained a look down on other chefs.
But this mouthful of food made her feel the gap between them. The gap was even wider than when she faced Ma Lu before.
Sun Mei said cautiously, "Does Chef Wang really not want to eat? How about I serve a portion and give it to him."
"No, he has something else to eat. These are all for us to eat.”
Ma Ludao was very satisfied with the effect in front of him.
Although it is a staff meal, this Gastrodia stewed langtuo with a delicious index of ★★★★★ was specially made by him after he asked Lao Wang.
The purpose was to give Sun Mei a show of strength.
After competing with Sun Mei on the same stage, Ma Lu had already sensed some of her temper.
Knowing that Lao Wang doesn’t show some real skills, this guy will probably not be convinced.
Sure enough, after eating gastrodia stewed wolf camel, Sun Mei became much more honest and no longer pestered Ma Lu. Instead, she asked Ma Youyou and He Xiaoqian to gossip about Lao Wang.
It didn’t matter if I didn’t ask about it. I was shocked when I asked.
Because according to He Xiaoqian and Ma Youyou, Lao Wang's cooking skills are much better than Ma Lu's, and all the diners who have eaten in the restaurant have praised it.
Some people even started singing because it tasted so delicious.
Sun Mei feels that this description may be exaggerated, but in any case, it is certain that Lao Wang is a good cook.
Sun Mei suddenly felt that the trip was worth it.
Who would have thought that there were both Wolong and Fengchu in a small restaurant if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes.
After eating, Malu gave some of the coconut sugar, coffee and dried fruits he brought back from Sanya to He Xiaoqian and Ma Youyou.
Then he sent the rest to Zhen Ye on the second floor. After finishing his work, Ma Lu asked Sun Mei again, "You don't have a place to live now?"
Sun Mei nodded, "Yeah , I plan to rent a house."
Ma Lu thought for a while, "My house..."
"Okay." Sun Mei said quickly, she had the opportunity to observe the two top chefs up close. Don't want to let it go.
"Don't think about a new home." Ma Lu said, "But I still have an old house, and the rent is due for more than half a year. I can let you live in it first, Yunyun, please send her the address."
< br>"Okay, boss."
