Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 290
"To be honest, today's products are much better than I imagined."

"Before I thought about it, I hesitated for a long time among several roast duck restaurants before choosing to come here."

"Besides, I did see a lot of good reviews on the Internet, and I also suspected that these good reviews were artificially created."

"So, I also took the risk of stepping on mines to explore the way for the audience, but I didn't expect the result to be not bad. At least the whole set of ducks tastes pretty good."

The waitress who was in charge of watching Li Xiao's live broadcast room in the lounge was immediately relieved when she heard what he said.

It seems that this anchor does not have the habit of doing one thing before and another one after another.

But soon, the face of the waitress changed immediately, and she rushed to the lobby with her mobile phone.

On the other side, Li Xiao looked at the fish-flavored shrimp ball that he had bitten in front of him, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Good guy, this is so bad, isn't it?
It’s okay to use frozen shrimp. After all, hotels in many places use frozen shrimp to make shrimp dishes. Li Xiao felt that the other party was justifiable.

But the problem is, you can use frozen shrimp, but the problem is that the shrimp smells like meat from the refrigerator?There is still such a heavy fishy smell, what is going on?

Could it be that the shrimp has not been pre-processed according to the process?

Was it not flushed or scrubbed?Otherwise, how could such a situation happen?
Seeing Li Xiao's look of bitterness and hatred, the audience in the live broadcast room gloated.

"Haha, just after the anchor's front foot was praised, the back foot was caught. What is this called? Isn't it too boastful?"

"Is the anchor stupid? How did you come up with such an outrageous idea of ​​eating shrimp at a roast duck restaurant?"

"The anchor quickly told us what's wrong with the shrimp? Why did your face change so quickly like a Sichuan opera?"

"I haven't seen the anchor show this expression for a long time, isn't it so rare?"

"Laughing to death, you fake fans, all of you are gloating when you see the suffering of the anchor, can you still have a good time?"

"The recipe for fish-flavored shrimp is very simple. How could there be mistakes? It's still in such a big store."

Li Xiao frowned, and put the remaining half shrimp on the plate, not intending to continue eating, he sighed:
"Halo, this shrimp is really unpalatable."

If it weren't for the consideration of the audience's viewing experience, he even wanted to spit out the crushed shrimp in his mouth.

Fortunately, the fish-flavored sauce is not bad. It is sweet, salty, sour, and spicy. With the rich fish-flavored sauce, I swallowed the indescribable shrimp.

Li Xiao let out a long breath, and secretly praised himself for being able to bend and stretch.

He was able to swallow such an unpalatable thing, but then he froze, his expression a little stiff.

Waiting for the smell of fish to appear sour, but the sourness is often brought by mature vinegar, but the sour taste I just ate is not like that produced by mature vinegar or white vinegar.

His complexion changed, and the three people just now didn't seem to come from the fish-flavored juice, but from the half of the strange shrimp.

Li Xiao felt dizzy for a while, good guy, this is no longer a problem that the family didn't handle well, but these people just melted away, this is outrageous.

Originally, he was still hesitant to clenched his throat and spit out the spoiled shrimp.

But after thinking about it, I have the skill of steel stomach, even if it is spoiled food, it is not a big problem to eat it.

Ordinary spoilage should be easily digested.

It's just that there will be a little nausea in my heart, and it may be even more disgusting to spit it out after eating it, forget it, forget it.

Li Xiao resisted the urge to curse, and pressed the service bell on the desktop, but the service order had just been pressed.

Two people appeared beside him like ghosts, one of them was the waitress who just apologized to herself, and the other was a chef wearing a tall chef's hat who was about forty years old.

In the industry, the taller the chef's hat, the higher the status, and the forearm-high chef's hat in front of him is almost the top.

Li Xiao secretly guessed the identity of this chef. Could it be that this is the head chef of this restaurant, the six-star chef named Zhou Jie.

It was not beyond Li Xiao's expectation. The person who came first exposed the family, and the chef wearing a tall chef's hat said:
"Hello, I am the head chef of the roast duck restaurant. Just now, the clerk reported that there is something wrong with the shrimp you ate?"

???

Li Xiao felt a question mark on his face, isn't this the service bell he just rang?
How did the other party know that he wanted to report something wrong with the shrimp?
Does this shrimp often have problems?
Then why do they continue to use these shrimps?
Questions filled his mind, and he was a little confused, not knowing what happened.

But when his eyes fell on the mobile phone that was still on in the hands of the young lady on the other side, he immediately understood what was going on. Good guy, is this the whole live broadcast of him staring at him?
He was a little dumbfounded, why did he feel like a thief, and he had to send someone over to watch his live broadcast room.

Is this because I am afraid that I will speak ill of their family?This isn't enough to strictly guard against it to this extent, right?

But after all, he has never participated in management, and he doesn't quite understand what the other party thinks. He nodded bluntly and said:
"Yes, there is indeed something wrong with this shrimp."

He didn't mean to avoid the audience in the live broadcast room, but continued bluntly:
"The fish-flavored sauce is fine, and the batter is properly coated, but the shrimp in it is not right. If I'm not mistaken, not only the shrimp has not been processed properly, but it has also deteriorated."

Hearing the first half of Li Xiao's words, Zhou Jie frowned, since there was no problem.

Why did the other party show such an expression of bitterness and hatred, and even told the audience in the live broadcast room that it was delicious?
Could it be that the other party is deliberately targeting what happened to Li Bingsheng just now?
However, after he listened to Li Xiao's words, his expression changed.

You must know that a guest's evaluation of a dish is very subjective.

Maybe it's because the chef didn't do it well, or maybe the guest didn't like the taste.

But once there is a problem such as deterioration, it is 100% the full responsibility of the restaurant.

There is no way for the restaurant to evade or explain. As a 6-star chef, he did not directly deny Li Xiao's statement.

Even in front of more than 20 viewers, he didn't argue first whether the shrimps had really gone bad, but said:
"The guest said that the shrimp has gone bad? Can you allow me to taste one next time to see what's wrong?"

Li Xiao didn't refuse, but waved his hand as a gesture of asking for permission. He also wanted to know what kind of attitude the other party would make.

Seeing that Li Xiao did not refuse, Zhou Jie quickly took out a pair of pure black chopsticks from his apron.

His chopsticks picked up a shrimp ball wrapped in fish-flavored sauce, but he didn't stuff it directly into his mouth.

Instead, put your left hand on your palm to prevent the juice from dripping on the ground.

He first carefully observed the appearance of the shrimp balls, and found nothing wrong with the appearance.

I also smelled the smell of fish-flavored juice, and the taste was also very pure, and there was nothing unusual about it.

Of course, these are not his focus, because Li Xiao also said that there is no problem with fish-flavored juice.

The problem is the shrimp inside, but out of caution, the 6-star chef carefully checked these possible problems.

After confirming that it was correct, he lightly took a small bite on the fish-flavored shrimp ball.

This bite was very small, he first bit off the shell of the shrimp ball, the golden shell.

He needs to disassemble it step by step to determine where the problem is, and that layer of flour crust is fine.

The taste is very pure, fresh, salty, sweet, spicy, and sour. The juice made by Ahao is still very good.

No, Zhou Jie frowned slightly, is the fish flavored sauce a little sour?

Although it is only a little bit off, but as a 6-star chef, he has a more sensitive taste than ordinary people.

He could barely taste something wrong, but at this moment he thought it was because the fish-flavored sauce was not ready.

But while eating the sour taste, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the other party's so-called deterioration is because the fish-flavored juice is too sour, so the other party thinks it has deteriorated.

After all, once many things go bad, they will have a sour taste.

It is estimated that the other party is too sensitive to sour taste, so there is such a big reaction.

But it didn't take long for his heart to be relieved, and his face changed immediately, because the next second he took a small bite of the shrimp.

Zhou Jie's complexion became unsightly, and he swallowed the small mouthful of shrimps in his mouth uncertainly.

It's sour, and it's obviously sour. Although it's not sour, it's obviously spoiled.

He took a deep breath to adjust his emotions, and finally suppressed the anger in his heart.

What the hell did those guys do?Can such a basic thing go wrong?
Is the inventory check every morning just for show?
Otherwise, how could such a big mistake not be reported?

With an apology on his face, he bent slightly and bowed to Li Xiao:

"I'm very sorry, the shrimp has indeed deteriorated. There may be some mistakes in the storage or transportation link, which caused problems with the shrimp."

"Our side will immediately thoroughly investigate which link has the problem, and the entire batch of shrimp will be thoroughly inspected."

"In addition, we will immediately recall all the shrimps on site to avoid problems."

As he said that, he turned his head and said to the young lady beside him:

"Hurry up, go to the front hall and take back all the shrimp dishes. I don't know how many shrimps are in question. Prepare for the worst and go immediately."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head again, and bowed deeply to Li Xiao, of course, to the camera.

"I'm very sorry, it's because we didn't do a good job in the back kitchen. May I ask how much the guest ate, do I need to call you to the hospital immediately for an examination?"

"Do you feel any discomfort while doing it now? Do you have any nausea, dizziness, or stomach pain?"

"You can rest assured that, as the head chef, I can guarantee here that as long as any testing fees and medical expenses arise due to this, we will be responsible to the end."

"Of course, we keep the Food Safety Law in mind. According to the Food Safety Law, you will be refunded for one and ten will be refunded. If the amount is less than 1000 yuan, you will be compensated for 1000 yuan."

"The price of this fish-flavored shrimp ball is 190 yuan. We rounded it up to 200 yuan. According to the requirement of refunding 10, we will compensate you 2000 yuan. Do you think there is any problem with this?"

Of course, he was half concerned about this question, and half wary.

After all, there is indeed a problem with their own shrimp. If the other party uses this as a reason to publicize it on the Internet, then the problem will be big.

So he admitted his mistake very sincerely, and wanted to settle the matter immediately, so as not to cause any side issues.

2000 yuan is a drop in the bucket no matter for him or for a six-star chef.

Not to mention 2000 yuan, if this problem can be solved immediately, he is willing to pay 2 yuan or even 20 yuan.

After all, in the eyes of rich people, being able to solve problems with money is really not a problem.

If it is because of the problem of the deterioration of the shrimp, the word-of-mouth that has just improved after a while will collapse immediately.

That's a big deal, it's not 20, 200 million can be remedied.

You must know that the new boss has spent a lot of effort to reform in all aspects in order to improve the bad image in everyone's mind.

Just asking him to come out of the mountain, the other party has consumed a huge amount of favor.

He actually asked the chef who had retired for many years to intercede with her. If it wasn't for his own master, he wouldn't want to be the head chef with a bad reputation.

If one is not good at his career, there will be a huge stain, and others will point to his nose and say, look, that is Zhou Jie who used to be a chef.

When the time comes, the dishes I cook will taste a bit worse before others have tasted them, because in their inherent impression, the dishes made by a chef who works in a restaurant with a bad reputation will definitely not be much better go.

If it hadn't been for the other party's repeated pleas and his master's earnest persuasion, it would have been impossible for him to come.

In addition, he also knew that in order to clear those old fritters that had been working in the company for 30 to 1000 years, more than [-] million yuan was paid in compensation alone.

In addition, the menu has been updated to increase the variety of dishes.

The decoration of the store has been renovated to add fashionable and trendy elements.

Using better purchase channels, although the cost is higher, the quality of the ingredients has also improved a lot.

He saw it all, and he knew that the new boss really seemed to want to rejuvenate.

Re-let the name resound in the world again.

You must know that it was often used to receive foreign guests from various countries at that time, but due to the continuous decline in word-of-mouth in recent years.

It has been many years since he has used this place as a banquet venue, and Zhou Jie really saw the other party's determination.

That's why I wholeheartedly helped here, but who would have thought that such a problem would appear not long after the reform started.

It's like a slap in the face, and what's worse is that the problem was discovered by a big streamer with a lot of traffic.

Food anchors with more than 20 online users at the same time rarely appear in Zhou Jie's impression.

In other words, the other party must be one of the best among the food anchors, so the influence must be quite strong.

If the other party really publicizes this matter on the Internet, even if they don't use embellished methods to promote it, the impact will be huge.

This patient, who just recovered from a serious illness, is likely to collapse completely because of this storm, and he may also be infamous for it.

Li Xiao frowned slightly, good guy.

With this attitude of admitting mistakes, those who don't know think that the other party has poisoned themselves.

Hearing the other party open his mouth to admit his mistake directly, and directly moved out of the national food safety law.

At the same time, he agreed to use the highest compensation amount to compensate himself, and all the expenses of seeing a doctor were fully covered by the other party.

The sincerity of this chef is indeed very sufficient.

Li Xiao hesitated for a moment. Although food spoilage was indeed a serious problem, the other party's handling was adequate. Who has nothing wrong with it?
Although 2000 yuan is not much, it is the other party's wish after all. If I don't accept it, I am afraid that the other party will be worried.

As for going to the hospital for an examination, he didn't need it. He knew that a set of examinations in the capital would cost several thousand.

Since I am sure that nothing will happen to me, and there is no need for the other party to spend this wronged money, I just want to promise the other party compensation so that the other party can feel at ease.

Two figures rushed out one after the other.

The two figures are very familiar. The one in front wearing a white chef's uniform is Li Bingsheng, who just performed a sliced ​​duck for him, and the one chasing after him is the young lady named Xiaoyan.

However, boys' physical strength and physique are much stronger than girls' after all. Li Bingsheng's speed is very fast, and Xiaoyan behind him has no way to stop him.

Li Bingsheng rushed to Li Xiao, pointed at Li Xiao and said:

"Good guy, you said you don't want to pursue my mistakes, why did you turn your head around and criticize elsewhere? Don't think that you have a large audience and you can do whatever you want with good cooking skills, and you can do whatever you want?"

"I know that you anchors like to deliberately discredit merchants and use them to threaten merchants to take money."

"Don't look at my young age, I know quite a few anchors."

"Does Xiaomaojiang know? I even know the first sister in the food area of ​​Xiaomao Live, so don't mess around."

"Our reputation is not something you can mess with, understand?"

???

Li Xiao

Zhou Jie

Xiaoyan
Xiaoyan's hand that was about to cover Li Bingsheng's mouth froze in the air, and the corners of Zhou Jie's eyes twitched wildly.

It's really not enough to succeed but more to fail. If you have some skills, you feel that you are invincible.

Xiaoyan was clearly announcing her own order, how could this guy dare to jump out and make trouble?

Don't you need to go through your brain to do things?

If it's really okay, will I handle it like this?

Zhou Jie dared to believe that if he had a knife in his hand now, he would really be able to hack him to death.
