Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

Chapter 167 Preparations for Opening a Store

Finally it's done! Lucy sighed to the tidy SHINO'S Tokyo.

It's getting late, everyone should go to bed early, and tomorrow will be a trial operation. Liu Maoxing, you can choose not to enter the kitchen tomorrow, otherwise you will no longer be able to view yourself as a student. I will confirm with you one last time, I really want to participate ?

Abel, who deliberately had some stubble on his chin, asked solemnly.

Of course, I'm ready...and not just to participate, if possible, I'm ready to replace any of you at any time! Liu Maoxing said without giving an inch.

It's not entirely because of arrogance, but the next week's internship must be at the Yuanyue Resort. Liu Maoxing still remembers the conditions offered by Yin Dojima very clearly!

Now Liu Maoxing's culinary skills have been stuck in the super two-star for a long time. At any rate, the chef heart prototype was still at Matsuda's house, and was inspired by Hanyin. In comparison, the progress of culinary skills is too slow!

Although the speed of improvement is much faster than that of normal classes during field training, it is too slow compared to the needs of upgrading.

Therefore, Liu Maoxing has been coveting the VIP buffet hall and high-end VIP restaurant of Yuanyue Resort for a long time...

Therefore, Liu Maoxing had to let himself adapt in advance, as a first-level chef, or even the position of head chef, although Liu Maoxing also felt that the head chef was too difficult for him!

At least one must have the strength of a star to be able to take on the important task. Liu Maoxing does not have this kind of strength now...

Oh? What a great thing to say... But, hey, since you are so open and honest, let me be honest! I haven't accepted you to join our team. If you delay, I won't just because you are in If you are an intern, you will be given preferential treatment, and you will be kicked out of the kitchen directly to help Gao Wei! Abel also said rigidly.

When Liu Shi and Gao Wei marveled at Liu Maoxing's courage to directly challenge them, Liu Maoxing immediately changed into a smiling face and said to Gao Wei: Sister Gao Wei, I'm not making trouble, look at what he said? Why? It seems that people who are not in the kitchen can be given to you at will? I don’t like to hear this, don’t you know that the front hall is the face of the restaurant?”

However, Gao Wei just rolled his eyes at this kind of sowing dissension in pediatrics, and didn't bother to pay attention at all...

And Abel also gave Liu Maoxing the formal chef uniform.

As for the arrival time, it is actually very loose. If Liu Maoxing wants to enter the kitchen, he can arrive at work at nine o'clock.

SHINO'S·Tokyo does not provide breakfast, and the accepted reservation starts at 10:30, and an hour and a half before that is the time for everyone to pre-process the ingredients.

Until twelve o'clock, there will be six to ten tables of customers in the low peak period, and ten to sixteen tables of guests in the peak period from twelve o'clock to three o'clock, and there will be another low peak from three o'clock to five o'clock. After 1:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. is the peak time, and the store closes at 10:00 p.m....

Of course, there may be some errors in the specifics, because this kind of set meal service requires the guests to finish the previous dish and then present the next one. The dining speed of the guests can only be roughly estimated and cannot be completely controlled.

Sigong and the others are obviously very confident in themselves. If Liu Maoxing is not counted, they only have three of them. The number of people in the kitchen is smaller than that of Chunguo Pavilion, but they dare to undertake three times the number of Chunguo Pavilion reserve!

It is necessary to know that after estimating the dining speed of the guests, the ingredients of the next dish are pre-processed, and after the guests use up one dish, the next dish can be provided quickly within the best taste, which is better than creating Zhenjia's fixed-dining restaurant is complicated and troublesome for many times...

After all, many dishes cannot be prepared too much in advance, and some ingredients must not be prepared in advance for freshness!

However, it is true that SHINO'S is even more powerful. Counting the four branches, Ryushi, the weakest of the three, may have the strength of a one-star chef!

At nine o'clock the next day, Liu Maoxing came to the kitchen on time... and it was just on time, without any intention of preparing anything in advance.

Everyone is here, let's make preparations before opening the store according to the content on the form! Abel said.

Because Abel will stay in SHINO'S Tokyo as the head chef, so now Shinomiya tries to let him arrange these as much as possible, which is regarded as training.

Sigong will only come to the kitchen when the cooking officially starts at 10:30, and will not participate in the pretreatment process. Now there are only three people in the kitchen, Abel, Liu Shi, and Liu Maoxing.

The form in each person's hand was also made by Abel who stayed up all night before. According to the number of people booked, the dishes ordered, etc., the quantity and time of ingredients that need to be pre-processed...

I have to say, in fact, with the addition of Liu Maoxing, his workload has actually increased!

Of course, it is impossible for Sigong to really bet on Liu Maoxing's long-planned branch store. In fact, when accepting the appointment before, Liu Maoxing was not considered at all, and the three of them can complete it!

And what Abel has to do is to arrange suitable auxiliary tasks for Liu Maoxing, and to ensure that no matter when he makes mistakes, it will not lead to too serious consequences...

Today is your first day in the kitchen as a cook, I hope you don't hold back! Otherwise...

Otherwise I'll be in charge of answering reservation calls later! Is that okay?

Liu Maoxing looked at himself in the French chef's uniform, and said, Sure enough, you look handsome in anything you wear.

A Xing, don't be careless! This is different from your usual class! Liu Shi also said solemnly, telling him not to be too frivolous.

Okay, Sister Liu Shi has already said so, then I'll start preparing first... Liu Maoxing took a few glances at his own form.

When Abel and Liu Shi were doing their own preparatory tasks, they also used the rest of their energy to observe Liu Maoxing.

The pre-processing is mainly based on pickling, dicing, broth boiling and other processes, many of which require the unique skills of French cuisine. Neither of them is very relieved of Liu Maoxing, but Abel directly expressed it, and Liu Poetry is to be scruples about being friendly to newcomers...

The two quickly took out the ingredients to be processed from the warehouse and freezer, and when they were busy in an orderly manner, they saw Liu Maoxing unhurriedly taking out the ingredients while looking at the task form. Shake your head.

I think that Liu Maoxing has not yet adapted to the efficiency consciousness that should be in the kitchen...

Although Abel didn't urge him right away, he just waited for Liu Maoxing to finish it, and then lashed out at him.

It's even ready to start Plan B, that is, the plan without Liu Maoxing in the kitchen!

Originally, the task that Abel assigned to Liu Maoxing did not take into account his status as a rookie and an intern, so it was not easy.

In Abel's mind, even if he overestimated Liu Maoxing's cooking skills, these tasks would be impossible to complete, but if the difference was not too bad, he could just teach him a little lesson and let him stay in the kitchen...

But now that Liu Maoxing himself is not good at cooking, it doesn't matter, but he doesn't have the slightest sense of urgency, and Abel has already made up his mind to drive him out.

Liu Shi also sighed when she saw this, but after all, the kitchen is like a battlefield, and there can't be a comrade who is slowing down, so she didn't stop Abel, but thought that after closing the shop at night, maybe she could give Liu Maoxing a little bit of advice to see the effect, after all, he Liu Mao Sister Shi, Sister Liushi has been calling for a whole day.

Abel and Liu Shi no longer think that Liu Maoxing can stay in the kitchen today, and the only remaining investigation point is whether Liu Maoxing will take the initiative to ask for help...

If you take the initiative to speak at nine fifty or ten o'clock, although it is embarrassing, it also means that Liu Maoxing understands that the overall situation is the most important thing, and will not delay things for the sake of face.

That's not bad. If he wants to save face and drag the team down, Abel may kick him out of the restaurant directly.

Both Liu Shi and Abel were busy for a while, and it was almost 9:20 when Liu Maoxing took out the ingredients, spices, and sauces to be processed one by one from the warehouse and freezer...

Abel couldn't help it, and started to teach him a lesson ahead of time, but fortunately he held back at this time!

I saw Liu Maoxing chose a kitchen knife in his hand, his eyes sharpened instantly, and the previous lazy look disappeared!

It seems that from this moment on, Liu Maoxing has entered the state, and the warm-up was not even counted before...

Also from this moment, the cooking table in front of him has become his stage, from configuring the marinade, to dicing, slicing, and then to preparing the broth, the action is done in one go!

And there is never any need for measuring tools, as if it is just a handy marinade and a prepared broth...

Abel also wanted to question one or two. After all, it was just a recipe, and if the taste was wrong in the end, it would be useless. Although he and Liu Shi also didn't need to measure, but they were used to these recipes in the SHINO'S main store, but Liu Maoxing It was the first time I met him, how much faster than the two of them?

From his observations, there is generally nothing wrong, but Abel still wants to say a few words...

But at this moment, after Liu Maoxing turned on the fire of the stock pot, he started dicing and slicing. Under the skill of a so-called star chef, which was far beyond his reach, Abel retreated!

People with this kind of knife skills may really be able to prepare marinades, sauces, and broths that seem to be following one's will?

I saw that the ingredients that Liu Maoxing took out almost filled the entire cooking table, and quickly turned into diced and sliced ​​pieces in several large pots, and there was nothing to be picky about in terms of cross-section or size. place!

Looking at the ready-to-use semi-finished product that seemed to be carved out of a mold, Abel even asked himself in his heart: Can I be so fine?

As for whether it can be done so fast? Just don't ask!

Liu Maoxing did not prepare the ingredients until 9:20, even considering that he had just arrived and was not familiar with the location, it was too slow.

Slow enough to make people think that he has a problem with his subjective will and his mentality is too lazy.

But at 9:50, Liu Maoxing had already finished all the pretreatments he could do. Only marinating and broth needed time. Liu Maoxing also posted a note on it, stating the time it could be used... …

Seeing that Liu Shi and Abel were still busy, Liu Maoxing stood behind Abel, glanced at Abel's form and said: The eighth item, the thirteenth item, and the sixteenth item and the following preparations, Leave it to me! Chef Abel can use his free time to think about today's task arrangement...

Well, Liu Maoxing did speak at 9:50, but the content of his opening was something that Abel never thought of before!

In fact, his and Liu Shi's culinary skills must be better than Liu Maoxing's, but if it is compared to these preparation procedures that test the basic skills... Even if it is the basic skills of French cuisine, it is just asking for fun!
