Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 342 There Is Always Someone Like You
Then it took them a few more minutes to put all the dishes in the dishwasher.

In addition to washing dishes, this dishwasher also has the functions of disinfection, sterilization and storage.

After installing the dishwasher, they made a simple staff meal. Most of the lunch today was some home-cooked quick-hand dishes, so Chen Nian directly handed it over to Xie Yu to cook.

However, while eating lunch, Chen Nian took another look at the progress of the pickled meat in his mind.

Braised Pork with Preserved Vegetables (793/1000)

There are more than 200 copies left, which is also due to the enthusiasm of the customers. With the expansion of the store, more customers come here to eat than before. Many office workers in the vicinity learned that there are new dishes here. After that, I basically order it to taste it.

So in just over half a month, so many copies of Mei Cai Kou Rou have been sold.

If it continues at this speed, it is estimated that in three to five days, I will be able to learn new dishes by myself.

For the next dish to learn, Chen Nian still has some small expectations.

Soon after eating the staff meal, guests came to eat one after another.

The kitchen started to clang and bustle again.

But while cooking, Chen Nian subconsciously looked up and saw Chen Mingyu coming.

And the other party came this time with Mr. Fang, who ordered food at his side last time.

They were also looking towards the kitchen, and met the old man in the kitchen, nodded and smiled, and then Feng Honghong went out and arranged for them to sit down.

"Xiao Chen is here again, how are you doing?"

"Recently, everything has been going well. Boss Fang introduced me to several big orders. This is not to thank Boss Fang, so I specially brought him here for dinner."

Feng Honghong's face brightened when she heard that: "Xiao Chen, you are really serious. If you invite Mr. Fang to dinner, you have to go to a big restaurant. Doesn't it seem a bit insincere to come to our small restaurant?"

The two of them could tell that Feng Honghong was joking. After all, Mr. Fang would occasionally come here for a meal before, and he would order new dishes after eating all the previous dishes.

"Sister, what are you talking about? In my opinion, Honghong Hotel is no worse than those big restaurants, and it is more down-to-earth than those restaurants.

Besides, I haven't been to Honghong Restaurant since the renovation was completed. This time, thanks to Mr. Chen for bringing me here for dinner, I have to say that the decoration this time is indeed tasteful. "

Feng Honghong likes this way of getting along with people very much, and there is no big boss here, as long as she enters the Honghong Restaurant and sits down to eat, they are all guests of the Honghong Restaurant.

But after all, it is a restaurant, and there will definitely be some customers who are bossy when they come in, but it is a service industry after all, and Feng Honghong naturally gets along with them in a normal way, and rarely says anything.

But if the other party is also very polite, Feng Honghong is naturally willing to chat with the other party for a few more words.

Even some regular customers who come here often, they will joke.

"Then what do you want to eat today?" Feng Honghong asked with a smile, and handed over the menu by the way.

"Boss Fang, let's order. Fang is always a distinguished guest today." Chen Mingyu pushed the menu to Boss Fang again.

"Then I'd rather be respectful than obedient." Mr. Fang picked up the menu and looked at it, and saw that there was a new dish at the back, he couldn't help but light up, "Let's have a pickled pork with pickled vegetables first. I used to be in Meizhou, Guangdong. I often ate this when the factory was opened there.

For the rest, come with a garlic lettuce and a rouge goose breast. "

While talking, Mr. Fang looked at the menu and ordered two more dishes: "Mr. Chen, see if there is anything you want to add."

Chen Mingyu took the menu and looked at it again: "Then have another Wensi Tofu."

"It should be enough." Mr. Fang said suddenly.

I ordered three dishes and one soup, which is enough for two people.

"Okay, let's do this first, does Mr. Fang want some wine?" Chen Mingyu asked.

"Forget it, just drink some tea, I'm still driving." Boss Fang shook his head.

When Chen Mingyu saw this, he didn't persuade him to drink, and he didn't say anything about finding a substitute driver.

Anyway, we are all friends, and we can drink whenever we want.

In the end they asked for two more bowls of rice.

It didn't take long for the pickled vegetables and meat to be served first.

Mr. Fang couldn't help nodding his head as he looked at the color and shape of the pickled pork with pickled vegetables on the table.

"Mr. Fang, try this. This is a new dish from Honghong Restaurant. I have eaten it once before, but I think it tastes pretty good." Chen Mingyu said with a little pride.

"It's really good, at least there is no chili in it. Many restaurants in Chengdu will put chili in it. Although the taste is not bad, it doesn't taste like that."

As he spoke, he took a piece of pickled meat with pickled vegetables and put it in his mouth.

"Not bad, authentic!"

Mr. Fang gave a thumbs up and said.

"It's almost exactly the same as what I used to eat in Meizhou. I didn't expect the boss to even cook Hakka dishes."

Hearing the three words Hakka cuisine, Feng Honghong was suddenly a little dazed, probably thinking that Chen Nian would not only cook this kind of Hakka cuisine, but also cook another kind of Hakka cuisine.

Those memories are really bad.

But it is really not easy for the son to grow from the way he was at the beginning to the present.

If the level of culinary skills of Chen Nian is in the sky now, then it can definitely be called the basement of the [-]th floor of hell in the past.

"Boss, is your mapo tofu really only one yuan?"

Suddenly a voice came from the store, and a man with a schoolbag on his back looked at the menu on the wall for a while and asked in embarrassment.

"Yes, Mapo Tofu only costs one yuan, but each person can only order one."

"Then if I only order a mapo tofu, is it still worth one yuan?" The young man asked again, obviously afraid of some tricks.

"Don't worry, even if you come here to eat mapo tofu every day, as long as you order one each time, it will cost one yuan, but I suggest you eat a bowl of rice, the taste of mapo tofu may be stronger Some."

"Well, then there's no need to go to the circle of friends to collect likes or bargain for games, right?" The other party was obviously very cautious, so he asked about all the possibilities he could consider, so as not to be bundled by merchants for consumption .

"No need, do you want a mapo tofu?"

"Okay, let me have another rice." The young man nodded, "By the way, can you pour me a glass of water?"

"Okay, wait a minute." Feng Honghong greeted Wen Hongxia while handing the order to the kitchen after ordering: "Xiao Wen, come and pour a cup of hot water for this guest."

Listening to the young man's words, Chen Mingyu couldn't help raising his head.

Because this young man looked a bit like the one he had when he first came to Honghong Hotel, which suddenly made him miss half a year ago.

It was also because of the cheap mapo tofu that Chen Mingyu could get through the most difficult years in a less shabby way.

Although Chen Mingyu still hadn't paid off all the money he owed, with more and more bills, his life was much better than before.

Now that he meets a child who is very similar to himself, he always feels that he should do something.

So he called Wen Hongxia again: "I want to give a can of Coke to that child at that table, can you help me get it, and the money for the can of Coke will be credited to me."

Hearing this, Wen Hongxia couldn't help but glanced at Chen Mingyu: "Good man, no wonder Miss Honghong always chats warmly with acquaintances every time she comes over, it seems that everyone who can be recognized by Chen Nian's family has a very good heart. "

So Wen Hongxia took a can of Coke and put it on the young man's table: "Hello, this may be given to you by the guest next to you."

The young man looked up subconsciously, and saw that Chen Mingyu was also looking at him with a smile, and held a teacup in his hand and raised it towards this side.

"Thank you." He also noticed something, so he opened the coke can and also raised it up to have a drink with the other party.

The cola was cold, but his heart felt warm.

And Chen Nian in the kitchen couldn't help showing a knowing smile when he saw this scene. It seems that these kindnesses are contagious.

After the business hours were over, Xie Yu, Chen Nian, and He Hai, who were chefs, went outside to drink water and rest, while Feng Honghong and Wen Hongxia started to clean up the dishes.

After drinking the water, they went back to the kitchen, nothing else, mainly to see how the dishwasher worked.

The main operator was Wen Hongxia, so everyone surrounded her.

Wen Hongxia suddenly felt a little nervous for some reason: "Why don't you guys come?"

"It's okay, you just come."

Wen Hongxia nodded, and after carefully checking that all the dishes and plates were placed, she began to operate the dishwasher. After pressing a few buttons, the dishwasher also made a rumbling sound of machine rotation .

At the same time, there was also the sound of splashing water.

After the dishes that were originally full of oil and soup entered the dishwasher, they went through a series of cleaning processes, and the dishes that finally came out were unbelievably clean.

Everyone who watched was amazed again and again, and each of them sighed that the current high technology is amazing.

I picked up a bowl to check it, and found that it was still a little hot, apparently after being rinsed in hot water in the dishwasher and then sterilized with high temperature.

"The people nowadays are amazing. It's really a good deal to buy such a dishwasher." Feng Honghong couldn't help saying.

The whole cost of the dishwasher they bought from the equipment to the final installation is only more than 1 yuan. If more than 1 yuan is hired to wash dishes, it is not enough for the other party's salary for a year.

"Then why don't I buy a household dishwasher for our family. Although I eat in restaurants most of the time, I occasionally cook porridge or stir-fry at home, which will save you time." Wash your hands."

"Don't, don't, that's not enough. How many bowls can I have at home? I've also looked at household dishwashers. One of them costs thousands of dollars. I need to save money to marry a wife."

"I don't know when I will see you married a wife."

When Chen Nian heard that the topic had shifted to himself again, he yelled in his heart that something was wrong, he hurriedly said he wanted to rest for a while, and then fled away from the kitchen.

Others were still marveling around the dishwasher in the kitchen, while Chen Nian planned to lie down and rest for a while, but at this moment a person came outside the door.

"Hello, we have no food here." Chen Nian raised his head and said.

But the other party shook his head: "I'm not here to eat, can I rest with you for a while?"

Chen Nian was stunned for a moment: "Of course, if you want to rest, come and sit here, it's cooler here."

As he spoke, he vacated the place where he was sitting.

"Thank you."

Then the man came here to sit down and put the clothes on the table.

Chen Nian looked at the other party's face, he looked exhausted, and there were many beads of sweat on his forehead, so he took another pack of paper from the bar and put it on the table: "Wipe the sweat."

"Thank you." The man thanked again.

Although Chen Nian didn't know what the other party was doing, it was obvious that if he could go home and rest at noon, he would definitely not come to his shop and ask if he could sit down.

And the man sat for a while, then began to doze off, and then gradually fell asleep while lying on his clothes.

Soon after everyone in the kitchen came out, they saw a person lying outside. They didn't know who it was, so Chen Nian had to explain to them in a low voice that it was a passerby who wanted to take a rest in the store.

And the others stopped chatting after learning about it, and even walked back and forth a little more lightly.

About half an hour later, the man woke up, raised his head and looked around in a daze, and found that everyone in the shop was resting and sleeping on their stomachs.

But soon he discovered that there was actually a bottle of mineral water next to where he was lying on his stomach just now, and there was a note under it.

"Take a good rest, the water is for you to drink, if you get sleepy in the future, come here and lie down for a while."

After reading the words on the note, he also froze for a moment, then silently folded the note and put it in his pocket.

He took a sip of the water on the table.

He got up and put on his police uniform, tidied up his appearance, then took out his mobile phone and planned to scan the payment QR code on the table.

But when entering the amount, he hesitated for a moment, worried that the voice of receiving the money would wake them up, so he took out his wallet from his pocket and found a ten-yuan one on the table.

Then he left lightly.

So that after Chen Nian was woken up by the alarm clock, he sighed helplessly after seeing the disappearing person and the ten yuan left behind.

"What's the money back, really."

But his heart was also a little warm, and at the same time, he thought silently in his heart that if the other party came here to rest next time, he must tell the other party that he does not need to pay, and if he came to eat, he had to give him a discount.

In the afternoon, I have to deal with the ingredients that will be used in the evening. Chen Nian put the ten yuan into the cardboard box at the cash register and went into the kitchen.

After coming to the kitchen, Chen Nian saw that Xie Yu and He Hai were already busy here.

"Why don't you take a rest?" Chen Nian asked.

"Just sleep for a while, and there is still a banquet in the afternoon. Master, you have to prepare other dishes. Let's pack up early so that we won't be too busy at night."
