Food: How did I become a chef when I set up a stall?

The steak stall setting was finally over, and Jiang Feng successfully obtained the reward from the system.

Then, it’s time to negotiate with Sichuan Flavor Restaurant.

The transaction has been delayed for a week, which is a good thing. Sichuan Flavor is losing money every day. It will not be easy to sell in the short term, and the other party has dropped another 100 million.

The price is lower than the surrounding property prices and very affordable.

Jiang Feng also won decisively.

Then, he started busy with renovations.

The decoration style should be similar to that of Qijiang Yuetai Lu Cuisine Restaurant, but the details and sculptures are different, and they should have local cultural characteristics.

This restaurant is called "Jiangyuetai Sichuan Restaurant"

The previous chefs will definitely be replaced, and the management staff will also have to be replaced.

After Jiang Feng bought the restaurant, he learned that almost all the management of the restaurant were relatives of Yang Juanjuan.

This is indeed outrageous.

But it has nothing to do with him.

Jiang Feng contacted the decoration company and came up with a design plan, and then called one of his own from Ludong to oversee the project.

Moreover, he contacted Liu Mei in advance and asked Liu Mei to handle the employee matters some time before the opening. He would go back after the matters were handled here.

Then there is the matter of the cook.

Things are difficult for chefs.

Top Sichuan chefs are not easy to find.

What Jiang Feng wants to build is not an ordinary Sichuan restaurant, but a Sichuan restaurant worthy of the name.

Then the chef needs to be in charge.

And it requires not just one chef, but at least three powerful chefs.

It's hard.

However, it will take at least more than a month for the restaurant to be renovated. During this time, Jiang Feng can look for candidates for the chef.

The first person Jiang Feng wanted to invite back was Hu Youwei, the former head chef of Sichuan Flavor Restaurant.

Hu Youwei's previous salary at Sichuan Zhiwei was very high, ranging from 60,000 to 70,000 yuan to 80,000 yuan to 90,000 yuan.

Yang Juanjuan couldn't bear it anymore, so she tried to expel Hu Youwei.

Several people followed Hu Youwei.

At this point, Sichuan Flavor Restaurant was in ruins.

Hu Youwei is also a well-known Sichuan cuisine chef. He studied under the vice president of the Sichuan Cuisine Association in the province and has a certain status in the field of Sichuan cuisine.

Although the catering industry is now flourishing and many people don't care about the inheritance of Sichuan cuisine, there are still some people who do.

Now Hu Youwei comes to work in another Sichuan restaurant.

But this restaurant is someone else's territory after all. Although his food is good, he is not that comfortable.

The chef is divided into two groups, and they don't get along well with each other.

But everyone performed their duties and the work was completed normally.

That evening, Hu Youwei got off work and was about to drive home.

He sighed.

Although the treatment provided by this restaurant is very good and the environment is good, it is a new environment after all, and it is not easy for him to adapt to it.

Still a little uncomfortable.

At this moment, Jiang Feng appeared at the right time.

"Hello, Master Hu."

Jiang Feng smiled and stepped forward to say hello.

Hu Youwei was slightly startled when he heard Jiang Feng's words.

He looked towards Jiang Feng and recognized Jiang Feng's identity at a glance.

Jiang Feng is still very popular in the field of chefs, and basically everyone knows about him.

The Shandong cuisine chef has very good cooking skills and is the owner of a signature Shandong cuisine restaurant. He likes to set up stalls and sell various snacks.

In his Shandong cuisine restaurant, the Shandong cuisine chefs invited are very good. It is said that he personally selected and trained the chefs, and their skills are very good.

In the past two days, Hu Youwei's apprentice told him that Sichuan Flavor Restaurant had been sold and had a new owner.

His apprentice also found out that Jiang Feng was the one who bought the Sichuan Flavor Restaurant.

Therefore, Hu Youwei knew Jiang Feng's identity, and he even guessed Jiang Feng's purpose.

Everyone is not stupid. A newly opened restaurant owner is looking for him specifically. He must know what Jiang Feng wants to do.

Jiang Feng said straight to the point:

"Master Hu, let me introduce myself. My name is Jiang Feng. I just purchased Sichuan Flavor Restaurant recently. I want to build my own Sichuan restaurant, called Jiang Yuetai Sichuan Restaurant."

"I want to hire you to be the chef at Jiangyuetai Sichuan Restaurant, and you will be the executive chef."

"The salary and benefits are the same as before."

"I am sincere and hope you will consider it."

Hearing what Jiang Feng said, Hu Youwei also saw that Jiang Feng sincerely invited him.

But after the recent struggles, Hu Youwei was a little tired.

"Boss Jiang, I understand your good intentions, but I have just applied for a job in a new restaurant. I haven't worked there for a month, so I turned around and left. It's a bit unkind."

"When the boss of this restaurant invited me, he also made a special trip here."

"I've already said it, but I'm afraid it won't be appropriate to change places so soon."

"I'm also sincere. It's really inconvenient to go there now."

Hu Youwei said directly.

"Okay, you can think about it again and we'll leave a phone number."

"If you change your mind, you can call me."

"I will reserve the position for you for a while, but I am also looking for other suitable candidates. It is a two-way choice. It depends on yourself."

Jiang Feng responded readily.

This kind of thing depends on your own will.

After all, Jiang Feng's behavior is a "poaching" behavior and cannot be forced.

Hu Youwei took into account the sophistication of the world, and his choice was understandable.

Hu Youwei thought about the restaurant, so he still left Jiang Feng's mobile phone number.

Then, Jiang Feng left directly.

After returning home, Jiang Feng thought about how to find a Sichuan chef.

It is not impossible to post a job advertisement, pay a lot of money to recruit, and then personally screen the candidates.

But the efficiency is too low.

There are too many chefs now. Who doesn’t want to be a chef in a restaurant? After all, the salary in a restaurant is definitely much higher than that in a restaurant, and it also has a certain status.

If Jiang Yuetai really applied for a high-paying job, he would receive at least several thousand resumes, which is definitely not an exaggeration.

After all, there was a lot of excitement at applying for jobs at Lu Cuisine Restaurant before. At that time, executive chef Zhang Hu was busy with his head.

Jiang Feng set his sights on the upcoming Sichuan Cuisine Innovation Competition.

He didn't plan to participate himself, he just wanted to watch the fun.

The focus of the Sichuan Cuisine Innovation Competition is creativity, that is, the better the creativity, the better the results.

It's like a cooking show.

Jiang Feng thought that those who could participate in the Sichuan Cuisine Innovation Competition must be powerful people.

You can go and have a look, maybe you can hire a good cook.

Being a boss is not easy, at least in the early stages of starting a business.

Only when everything is running normally can he be the hands-off shopkeeper.

If you want to participate in the Sichuan Cuisine Competition, you must go through an audition, which requires a quota.

To put it simply, you must be a big brand Sichuan restaurant in Sichuan Province, or a chef with Sichuan cuisine heritage to participate.

Jiang Feng's Jiang Yuetai Sichuan Restaurant has completed registration and can send chefs there.

This is also to encourage chefs from branded Sichuan restaurants to participate.

Brands can take this opportunity to promote their brands, so they are happy to send chefs to participate.

At the same time, Sichuan cuisine chef Hu Youwei came to the boss's office.

Hu Youwei really wants to participate in this Sichuan cuisine competition.

On the one hand, I can see many of my old friends, and on the other hand, if I win an award, I can improve my status in the Sichuan cuisine industry.

But it’s not that easy to get a place in the competition.

His boss told him that both places were given to another chef, Peng San. After all, Peng San had been working in the restaurant for seven or eight years, so it was normal for him to need two places.

The boss also comforted Hu Youwei that there will be a Sichuan cuisine competition every few years, so don’t worry, there will be one later.

Hu Youwei could only give up.

But after returning to the kitchen, Peng San's apprentice was sarcastic and sarcastic.

The other chefs also had a bit of snobbery in their eyes.

Hu Youwei felt a little uncomfortable.

Jianghu is not about fighting and killing; Jianghu is about human relations.

He is a new chef, so he will inevitably be ostracized by others.

Hu Youwei hesitated for a long time and finally dialed Jiang Feng's number.

Hu Youwei expressed his willingness to join Jiang Yuetai. He wanted a spot to participate in the culinary innovation competition.

Jiang Feng naturally agreed readily.

Finding a good executive chef will solve at least half of the kitchen problems!

It will be much more convenient to recruit more people when the time comes.

The matter was settled like that.

Hu Youwei quickly passed the audition and began preparing to participate in the competition.

Jiang Feng was resting, and the system did not assign any more tasks.

A few days later, the innovation competition officially started, and Jiang Feng went to the scene to observe.

These chefs really tried their best and were busy at their respective stoves.

Jiang Feng just watched the fun.

Stop by and look for employees.

There are many people who are chefs of big brands, but Jiang Feng will not consider them.

But there are also many small brand chefs or self-employed chefs, and Jiang Feng is very interested in them.

Especially when he met people with good cooking skills, Jiang Feng wrote them all down for follow-up contact.

I guess the organizers didn’t expect it either.

What was originally a culinary innovation competition turned into a perfect place for Jiang Feng to select employees.

Jiang Feng really found some great chefs.

At least the knife skills and heat are pretty good.

Such people only need to be well cultivated to be able to stand on their own.

After Jiang Yuetai becomes famous, he will be able to attract other powerful chefs.

Only then can restaurants truly establish themselves in this gourmet city.
