Hardcore Chef Dad

After listening to his father's introduction about the hotel's censorship system, Feng Ruoruo said with some surprise: Dad, you know a lot.

Yang Xiaoxi also said: Yes, Father Feng knows a lot of things.

Yang Zhiyi did not make any rebuttal, but silently took out his notebook and wrote down all this.

Feng Yifan received his daughter's compliment and said with a smile: Actually, dad doesn't know much. He only knows things related to dad's work. He knows this kind of hotel system because he used to work in this hotel headquarters. .”

Feng Ruoruo suddenly asked curiously: Dad, can the uncle in the kitchen downstairs pass the Big Bear exam?

Hearing his daughter's question, Feng Yifan couldn't give an answer.

After all, the hotel's review has its own standards. To say whether it can pass the test, Feng Yifan is not a reviewer, so naturally he doesn't know the specific standards.

However, Feng Yifan couldn't help but laugh when he heard his daughter give Walsh a random nickname.

Ruoruo, you can't just give people nicknames.

Feng Ruoruo walked closer to her father and asked with a smile: Why? That person looks like a big bear, so tall and big.

At this moment, Feng Yifan remembered the time when he took his two children to play in the wildlife park.

I happened to see a big black bear in the zoo.

To be honest, Walsh's physique and appearance really look a bit like that big black bear.

So Feng Ruoruo directly gave the other party the nickname Big Bear.

Although he felt that his daughter's nickname was quite vivid, Feng Yifan still said to his daughter seriously: Ruoruo, it is very impolite to give others nicknames casually. You can't do this in the future, you know?

Seeing that his father was very serious, Feng Ruoruo finally nodded in agreement.

The daughter nodded in agreement, which made Feng Yifan very satisfied. He smiled and touched his daughter's little head and said, Okay, have you and Xixi gone to bed? Do you want to go out and play together?

Feng Ruoruo was a little unhappy because her father wouldn't let her give others nicknames.

But now when her father asked if she wanted to go out to play, the little girl immediately forgot about her unhappiness and immediately started clamoring to go play.

Okay, okay, let's go play.

Yang Xiaoxi was naturally looking forward to it: Let's go, let's go play.

Shi Jiahui said, That's right, let's go out and play. It's boring to stay in a hotel. Since we've come to such a prosperous metropolis, of course we have to go out and play.

Shi Tao naturally wanted to go out to play, and he also wanted to take his two sisters to have some fun.

Finally, everyone looked at Yang Zhiyi.

Facing everyone's gaze, the latter also said a little depressed: Why are you all looking at me? Do you think I don't want to go? I'm already here, so of course I want to go out and play.

When Yang Xiaoxi heard what his father said, he jumped up and down with joy: It's great, dad wants it too.

So the group of people tidied up, changed clothes for the two little girls, and then went out together.

Just when I was in the hotel elevator, I ran into the group of people who came to review again.

When Walsh saw Feng Yifan and the others were about to go out, he couldn't help but ask: Chef Feng, where are you going? Are you going to a restaurant for afternoon tea?

Being called Chef Feng by the other party,

Feng Yifan was also stunned for a moment, but then he understood that the other party's title was to show respect for him.

But before Feng Yifan could respond, the two little girls answered first.

No, we are going out to play.

Yeah, we're going to go out and play.

The boldness of the two little girls really impressed Walsh and others.

Usually, the little girls that Walsh and the others meet in China are relatively introverted. When meeting strangers, they may hide next to their parents and not dare to communicate with others easily.

Not to mention a big guy like Walsh who looks like a big brown bear.

But two little girls, Feng Ruoruo and Yang Xiaoxi, seemed not to be afraid of Walsh at all. It even seemed like the two little girls were deliberately trying to get close to Walsh.

When Feng Yifan saw the look of his daughter and Yang Xiaoxi, he vaguely guessed a little bit of his daughter's thoughts.

Feng Ruoruo has been following his father for a long time, and he has become much more courageous.

Especially for some things that she is more curious about, the little girl always likes to touch and explore them.

As for Walsh, who in Feng Ruoruo's eyes looked like a big black bear, the little girl naturally wanted to get close and touch him to see if he was as interesting as the big black bear.

However, even though he was thinking about it, Feng Ruoruo didn't dare to really get close without his father's consent.

The elevator arrived at this time, and Feng Yifan and everyone led the little girls into the elevator.

Seeing that Walsh and the others had no intention of getting on the elevator, Feng Yifan asked, Aren't you going?

Walsh smiled and replied: We are not going down, we are going up. Chef Feng asks you to walk slowly and looks forward to having dinner with you.

Feng Yifan nodded, then pressed the elevator's door button, ignoring Walsh.

When the elevator door closed, the smiles on the faces of Walsh and others disappeared.

Walsh also muttered helplessly: Why did you meet Feng Yifan here? This guy is very, very annoying to all chefs.

When the entourage heard this complaint, they all pretended not to have heard it.

What Walsh said is actually correct. Feng Yifan is indeed very annoying to most chefs because his cooking skills are so good. His appearance always makes other chefs look useless, especially because some of his dishes always become dishes that other chefs want to learn and imitate.

So for most chefs, there will be huge pressure when facing Feng Yifan.

Especially chefs who have worked with Feng Yifan will remember that feeling in their hearts.

So for a long time, Walsh avoided mentioning Feng Yifan in high-level hotel meetings.

It's a pity that Feng Yifan still can't get away from him every time there is a high-level meeting.

The reason is simple, it's because of the one-star menu.

That menu is the reserved menu of the hotel restaurant, and it was also the right to use it that the hotel headquarters bought from Feng Yifan at a high price.

Therefore, at every hotel high-level meeting, the sales of the package will inevitably be discussed.

And every time, the sales of that set meal made the senior management of the restaurant, including Walsh, feel even more pressure.

The financial report for the first half of the year has shown that the click rate of the one-star menu is still as high as 46%.

Although looking at the data alone, no more than 50% of them were clicked.

But you must know that among the other dishes in the hotel restaurant, no dish has an order rate of more than 20%.

This may be because the hotel restaurant is marked as a certified one-star menu. But at the same time, because it is really popular, there are even some guests who choose to stay in the hotel for a day just to eat that set meal.

This situation makes Walsh and other chefs in the restaurant department really feel ashamed.

For so long, the chefs have made a lot of efforts, but they have not been able to really improve the star rating.

Walsh once suggested whether he could just hire a better chef to serve as head chef.

Unfortunately, this suggestion was ultimately rejected.

After all, the group's main business is hotels, and senior management does not want to invest too much in restaurants. The hotel's top management feels that too good a restaurant's food offerings will lead to a situation where other excellent features of the hotel will be overlooked.

Therefore, the group would rather buy and use Feng Yifan's one-star menu at a high price than hire a better chef.

For Walsh personally, that's actually a good thing.

Because if the hotel's senior management hires a better chef, he will definitely not be able to be the executive chef.

However, this also made Walsh feel unable to hold his head high when facing Feng Yifan.

Feng Yifan and his party took the elevator to the first floor, walked out of the elevator and entered the lobby. Almost all the waiters in the hotel took the initiative to greet them.

And there are dedicated people to guide them to the parking lot, arrange for them to get into the car, and guide the vehicle out.

This whole set of service procedures also surprised Shi Jiahui.

Feng Yifan said to the point: Don't be surprised. The review team is here today, so their service will definitely be twice as good. If it were normal times, it might not be of such high quality.

Shi Jiahui couldn't help but smile and said, When you say that, aren't you saying that the hotel's service is fraudulent?

Feng Yifan said calmly: Is there any hotel that can provide quality service throughout the entire process? Many times, it's not that other people's service is not good, it's just that the person being served may be in a bad mood for a while, or they may be dissatisfied with certain aspects of the hotel. It may also ultimately lead to dissatisfaction with the service.”

Shi Jiahui said instead: However, good service will definitely make guests feel comfortable.

Feng Yifan nodded: This is natural, so in fact, I think the main purpose of studying in such an international chain hotel is to learn the attitude of this service.

Shi Jiahui suddenly thought of Su Ji, and asked Feng Yifan: So from now on, Su Ji will also have to follow this kind of service quality?

Feng Yifan shook his head and said: Su Ji doesn't charge service fees, so we don't need to pursue such service quality. We just need to make the guests feel comfortable and happy.

At this point, Feng Yifan added: Besides, we don't have that many manpower.

Shi Jiahui agreed.

After all, Suji is still a traditional restaurant and cannot fully pursue high service quality.

However, Su Ji's original service was not bad.

When Mr. Su Quansheng was still alive, Su Ji's service also received a lot of praise. In particular, Su Quansheng would make some taste adjustments to each dish according to the taste of the diners. This is the truly excellent service of a restaurant, and it is also Su Ji's. One of the factors that contributed to the good reputation back then.

The taste can be adjusted according to the slight differences in taste of each diner.

This is easy to say, but very difficult to do in practice.

Over the years, Feng Yifan knew that his father-in-law had been pursuing it, but in fact, his father-in-law could not fully achieve it.

As for the other uncles, perhaps only Shi Jinbin, the tenth uncle, could barely do it.

So this will also be a challenge that Feng Yifan needs to face.

After Shi Jiahui drove onto the main road, she asked, Where do Ruoruo and Xixi want to go to play?

Feng Ruoruo thought for a moment and said, We want to go to a fun place.

Yang Xiaoxi then said, Yes, let's go to a fun place.

The answers of the two little girls confused Shi Jiahui. She really didn't know where to go that the two children said was fun.

But Shi Tao said: Mom, let's go to the pedestrian street first.

Shi Jiahui thought about it and felt that the pedestrian street is indeed a good place. There are many distinctive buildings there, and there are also many shopping malls to visit. The most important thing is that there are many snacks to eat there. The most important thing is that the pedestrian street can go directly to the Bund, so that you can go directly to see the night view at night.

She nodded and said, Okay, let's go to the pedestrian street first.

Feng Ruoruo asked out of curiosity: Aunt Jiahui, where is the pedestrian street?

Yang Xiaoxi answered helpfully: A pedestrian street is a street that can only be walked on.

Feng Ruoruo thought for a moment and said, Yeah, isn't that the same street as our home?

Shi Jiahui smiled and replied while driving: Yes, almost the same, but what about our pedestrian street here? It is wider than your street, and there will be many, many people.

Feng Ruoruo was even more curious: Is it bigger than our street?

Shi Jiahui replied: Yes, it is bigger than yours.

Yang Xiaoxi then asked: Is there anything delicious there?

Shi Jiahui laughed: Yes, there are a lot of delicious food.

The two little girls immediately laughed, looking forward to the pedestrian street.

Yang Zhiyi, who was sitting in the back, said: I haven't been to the pedestrian street for many years. I remember we came once when I was getting married to Xixi's mother, and we took wedding photos here.

When Yang Xiaoxi heard what his father said, he immediately asked: Dad, you and mom are here, why don't you bring Xixi with you?

This sentence suddenly made everyone in the car couldn't help but laugh.

Two little girls don't understand why everyone is laughing?

Feng Ruoruo helped Yang Xiaoxi and asked, Why are you laughing? Xixi is right to ask. Xixi's parents come to play by themselves and don't even bring Xixi. This is wrong.

Feng Yifan hugged his daughter and said, It's not that Xixi's parents didn't take her, it's because Xixi hadn't been born yet at that time.

Yang Zhiyi also explained to his daughter: At that time, my parents had just gotten married, and Xixi you hadn't been born yet, but actually, my parents brought Xixi with them, and Xixi was in her mother's belly at that time, so Xixi doesn’t remember.”

After listening to his father's words, Yang Xiaoxi thought about it seriously and said, I really don't remember.

The little girl's appearance made everyone in the car couldn't help laughing again.

Yang Zhiyi smiled and said to his daughter: It doesn't matter. If you don't remember, dad will take you to have fun this time and let Xixi re-remember the places that you don't remember.

Yang Xiaoxi suddenly laughed happily: Okay, dad is so kind.

The atmosphere in the car became very happy because of the little girls. Shi Jiahui drove steadily and quickly arrived at the outside of the pedestrian street and found a parking lot to park the car.

After getting out of the car, Feng Yifan and the others walked to the pedestrian street together with the bustling flow of people on the street.
