Fu Yu returned to his residence at night, washed the dirty clothes himself, and briefly tidied up the house.
It was only half past eight in the evening when it was all finished.
He put on his clothes and prepared to go to the supermarket to buy some daily necessities.
But just as he was about to go out, he received a call from Li Dongxu.
Fu Yu was a little surprised. Since he came to Fuchengchun for further study, he had never interacted with Li Dongxu except during working hours.
I don't know why he suddenly contacted me.
Fu Yu answered the phone: "Cook Li, do you have anything to do with me?"
Li Dongxu is a straightforward person, and he is very willing to say anything to the people he recognizes.
He thought of what his boss Liu Yongping said, so he simply said what he had to say.
“Xiao Fu, just before getting off work in the evening, the deputy director of the activity center came over.
The Inner Mongolian customers they served were very satisfied with the noodles cooked by the stall this time.
Now that the news has spread, representatives from other technology companies have reported to the event center, requesting that all future receptions be held at our stall, and that they want to taste the lamb and scorpion pot you made. "
When Fu Yu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He was originally worried about how long it would take to complete the order for 50 large banquets.
Fu Yu was still wondering if he needed to communicate with Liu Yongping, but he didn't expect that Li Dongxu came directly to his door!
According to the standard of hosting a banquet in an event center, it must be a large banquet table!
As soon as Fu Yu's smile opened, he heard Li Dongxu continue: "Don't worry, for every meal cooked in the sheep and scorpion pot, we will pay you according to the store's commission reward!"
There is actually extra money to get!
Fu Yu suddenly smiled with neat white teeth: "Okay, Chef Li, no problem, leave the cooking of this lamb and scorpion pot to me!"
Li Dongxu was increasingly satisfied with Yu.
Young people should be so motivated, not afraid of hardship or tiredness, and not worry too much about everything.
In the next few days, the activity center began to customize reception tables at the Fucheng Chun stall.
Li Dongxu leads the kitchen staff to work diligently to complete every order.
Originally, the kitchen was expected to reserve at most two reception tables per day.
As a result, except for the three tables reserved on the first day, the activity center booked four to five tables almost every day.
Such a cooking opportunity is a very honorable thing for Fucheng Chun Stall!
Being able to establish a good relationship with the leaders of the activity center will be very beneficial to future stall work.
Moreover, many media will follow the dining area to promote food. Even if the kitchen is not photographed, the Fucheng Chun stall is mentioned during the recording process, and even the beautifully designed dishes on the table are photographed. What a negative impact on the hotel itself. It is also a very good promotion.
In addition, this is also a particularly valuable opportunity for other people in the kitchen.
Not only can you observe the special dishes in Li Dongxu's cooking shop up close, but you can also see Fu Yu cooking the lamb and scorpion pot.
This is so rare.
Those who benefited the most were the helpers.
Fu Yu also cherished this opportunity to observe.
As long as Li Dongxu is in charge, he will immediately come over to learn whenever he can free his hands.
Seeing Fu Yu working so hard, even Yang Ming and Wang Haiwei couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis. Even though they knew Fu Yu would not stay in Fuchengchun in the future, they were still affected.
This enthusiastic learning atmosphere quickly inspired everyone's mood in their daily work.
Yang Ming and Wang Haiwei, like Fu Yu, spend most of their day in addition to taking orders and cooking, and they take turns watching Fu Yu and Li Dongxu cook.
Even if I have work at hand and cannot do without observing the kitchen counter, I will glance at it from a distance from time to time and unconsciously start to imitate the cooking operations.
In the rare rest time in the afternoon, these people did not rush to seize the time to take a nap and recuperate, and gathered together to discuss their experiences in observing cooking.
After getting home from get off work early in the evening, I also review the cooking experiences shared during the day.
And this passionate enthusiasm for learning has led to work efficiency. The kitchen serves dishes quickly, and the waiters have less trouble to rush the dishes. They are in a better mood and become more enthusiastic and considerate when treating guests.
The activity center has supervisors who are responsible for the food area. During daily inspections, other stalls would have problems of one kind or another. Only Fucheng Chun performed well from top to bottom and was not criticized or warned even once.
Liu Yongping learned about this and asked the purchaser to send several boxes of fresh lychees, mangoes and watermelons to the stall as a reward!
Everyone ate fresh fruit and received praise from the boss. For a moment, they all felt that being proactive is such a happy and joyful thing!
On Friday night, Zhou Jun, the chef at Fuchengchun Restaurant, called Yang Ming.
“Dayang, we will go to Laoweige next Monday to observe the activities. You will be leading the team from the kitchen, right?”
Yang Ming was stunned for a moment. He had been too busy these days. In addition to being busy with cooking and studying, he had no other things in his mind.
Next Monday's observation activity at Laoweige is organized by the National Food Association. Once a month, several well-known local restaurants are organized to send outstanding chefs to designated places for observation.
This month it's Laoweige's turn to entertain guests, and the selected restaurants still attach great importance to it. However, since they are going to exchange cooking skills, they usually send employees with great potential in the kitchen.
It can be regarded as a small cooking exchange event.
For events like this, Fuchengchun usually sends its chef to participate.
Because the cooking demonstrations at Laoweige are all the chefs in the store, and it is impossible for the master chef to work on the stove, so such activities usually select young chefs with more potential in the store to participate.
Yang Ming thought for a moment and said, "I won't go to this event. I'm too busy these days and don't have time."
Zhou Jun was a little surprised: "Not going? Dayang, this exchange event is not ordinary. I heard that He Jie's eldest apprentice is going to give a performance and will cook a special dish from the Laoweige restaurant, focusing on stew. New regulatory standards will be released to control the cooking heat."
Yang Ming was a little hesitant when he heard that it was about controlling the heat of stewing.
Laoweige is most famous for its stewed dishes. For the same dish, the taste of stewed dishes in other restaurants is always slightly inferior. Even if all the ingredients and seasonings are prepared, others just can't make it taste like Laoweige.
Everyone in the circle knows that when Laoweige trains its kitchen staff, the most critical thing is to control the heat.
In addition to cutting meat, the workers in other shops do errands and do odd jobs. They rarely get the chance to work on the stove. Before they can truly take charge of the cooking independently, they can only do a greasy job once.
But Laoweige is different. As long as the talent and potential are discovered, the first thing to do when working on the stove is to cook.
During the cooking process, the craftsman can judge the amount of firepower and the length of time to use based on the tenderness, hardness, thickness, and thickness of the raw materials, the heat transfer medium, and the requirements for making the dishes.
He Jie is the chef of Laoweige, and his apprentice is equivalent to an excellent chef like Li Dongxu.
It is indeed a very good opportunity to observe and learn.
But tomorrow Fu Yu has to cook the lamb and scorpion pot five times in a row!
One characteristic of Fu Yu's cooking is that every time he observes the same dish, he can discover some detailed operation tips.
Many times, when someone asks, others will suddenly realize that there is such a trick.
It is usually difficult to discover these just by observing yourself.
Because Fu Yu is so skilled in cooking, these so-called special skills are really nothing worthy of guidance in his opinion. He will only answer when others ask.
What if someone discovers some cooking secret tomorrow and you miss it?
What a contradictory choice!
Fu Yu not only cooks lamb and scorpion pot these days, but also takes time to have cooking exchanges with Li Dongxu.
Both of them are very knowledgeable in cooking, which allowed them to gain a lot of experience while communicating.
Li Dongxu was inspired. Every time after the two people communicated, they would give a concentrated cooking explanation in the afternoon when there were no customers to eat. In order to increase everyone's enthusiasm for learning, they would also conduct regular assessments.
The latest assessment is scheduled for the day after tomorrow.
This assessment will determine each person's position in the hearts of Li Dongxu and his team members.
This made Yang Ming, Wang Haiwei, and several other chefs panic!
How many years have they been working at Fuchengchun?
How many years have it been since I took an exam?
But now this is a real practical assessment.
Although there is no salary deduction or any punitive measures, they all work under Li Dongxu. If their performance is not good enough or not outstanding enough, how will Li Dongxu view this matter?
Especially the assistant chefs who are facing competition themselves, as well as the two chefs in charge, Yang Ming and Wang Haiwei.
The chef has always valued personal strength, and Li Dongxu is a cooking fanatic. If you want to win his favor, there is no need to make any assumptions if your cooking skills are not good.
Even though Yang Ming has always been very successful with Li Dongxu and is almost in a lower position than anyone else, if he does not perform well in the assessment, it is really hard to say who will have more status in Li Dongxu's heart in the future.
Thinking of this, Yang Ming no longer hesitated and said decisively: "Brother Zhou, I won't go to Monday's event. There are other arrangements at the stall. Chef Li is going to give us an assessment. As for this exchange event, When you come back, I will ask you for advice."
Zhou Jun was stunned when he heard this: "No, Dayang, you said that Chef Li wants to assess you? What assessment? Which is more important than going to Laowei Pavilion to observe?"
I find that you are really confused now! Chef Li is so obsessed with studying cooking. If you tell him that you are participating in an exchange activity, he will definitely let you back! Oh, okay, if you don't want to participate, forget it, I'll talk to you when I come back! "
Yang Ming was hung up on, feeling quite helpless!
He can't say it's because the new trainees in the store inspired Li Dongxu's academic heart, and now he studies cooking skills every day, right?
Moreover, the situation at the stall is too complicated, and some things are difficult to express clearly to outsiders.
He is indeed the number one person under Li Dongxu now, but who can guarantee how long he can sit in this position?
Fu Yu's arrival is like a drop of water entering a hot oil pan. The chain reaction it has now caused has made Yang Ming even more ambitious.
He always has an uneasy feeling.
What if after Fu Yu, another such outstanding talent comes to the kitchen?
If he doesn't seize the time to improve himself now, he will only watch helplessly being surpassed by others, or even banned.
Yang Ming's career positioning is to be successfully promoted to chef and work steadily at Fucheng Chun for the rest of his life.
Moreover, to be honest, Yang Ming has often participated in these exchange activities organized by the Food Association in the past.
It's nothing more than completing a task for performance. Everyone goes through a process. The restaurant on display sends two chefs to show off the new dishes of its own store and take the opportunity to do a publicity.
Like the real signature dishes in the store, it is impossible for other colleagues to observe the detailed cooking operations. How can such core things be allowed to be seen by outsiders casually?
As for the cooking exchange between Li Dongxu and Fu Yu, these are real skills!
With emotion in his heart, Yang Ming took his mobile phone and checked the WeChat group first.
He has two groups in total, a large group is a work group where all the store staff are present, and a small group is a group where a few people from Li Dongxu's side are present. The group name was given by Li Dongxu and is called: "Li Family Barracks Group".
Li Dongxu is the group leader, and Yang Ming and Wang Haiwei are the administrators.
Yang Ming was busy on the phone just now. In such a short time, Xiaoqun had already sent several messages.
Wang Haiwei forwarded a short video in the group, which was a creative video posted by a funny blogger.
A bunch of people lined up at the bottom to post hahaha, and some people said they followed the blogger.
Yang Ming did not click on the video, but he also sent a haha emoticon below.
Almost as soon as he sent this message, Wang Haiwei replied: "Has Chef Yang not rested yet? I'm already lying down watching videos!"
Yang Ming sat down in front of the computer, opened the web page, looked through the history of the cooking observation video that he had not watched yesterday, and replied with a message: "Hey, I just cooked a bowl of noodles to eat. I don't know what happened today. I am very hungry. Wait. After I finish eating in a while, I will check out this blogger you posted for a while. The video was really interesting!"
Wang Haiwei was writing excerpts of cooking experiences on his tablet. After listening to the voice message, he casually replied: "I just took a shower, finally got off work early, and fell asleep after watching videos."
Li Dongxu carefully browsed through the online cooking videos about Fu Yu's participation in the competition. It was already midnight when he saw the information on his mobile phone.
He looked at the messages above and frowned slightly. Could it be that these people are just like this now?
Gangqing didn't take the assessment he arranged seriously at all!
These brats, it seems they have to make their cooking a little more difficult!
Thinking of this, Li Dongxu sent a message to Fu Yu to explain his thoughts.
Fu Yu didn't sleep either, so he quickly replied with a message: “No problem!” (End of this chapter)
