The story of a cook

Chapter 576 Greeting the Delegation

The "Red Kitchen Hat" inspection team is here.

The Binhai Station lasted for three days. In the first two and a half days, we conducted study tours in seven other hotels, and on the afternoon of the third day, we came to Qinghua Pavilion.

The first one - Fisherman's Wharf.

Yan Li, Mr. Wang, me, Li Shuang, and all the staff of Fisherman's Wharf lined up to welcome them.

The three buses of the inspection team arrived in a mighty manner.

The team leaders are Mr. Wu and Mr. Zhang from the Oriental Gastronomy Institute. Although they have never met, they have contacted them on the phone. to the store.

I was in charge of leading the chefs in the inspection group to visit the ordering area, open stalls, and kitchen, and giving explanations at the same time. Li Shuang was in charge of receiving the visitors at the front desk. Yan Li and Mr. Wang were in charge of greeting Teacher Wu and Teacher Zhang, as well as several restaurant owners. .

Due to the large number of visitors, it is impossible to take care of all of them at once. The visitors were separated, some went to the food exhibition stalls, some visited the open stalls, some went to the hot food kitchen, and some went to the cold dishes.The kitchen has been trained in advance, and the employees in any department are warmly welcome, answering questions and explaining carefully to visitors.

"Master Tan, are these pickles of yours handmade?" At the smoked pickle stall, a middle-aged man with a Sichuan accent, not tall but very fat, asked. He looked like a chef. Definitely the head chef.

I said: "All are handmade." Then I explained: "Smoked pickles are my specialty. We have launched a total of eight products, each of which is specially made by a person with a unique formula. It can be said to be unique in taste. Tonight Everyone can taste it at the banquet, and I hope that all colleagues will give you more valuable opinions.”

A woman who looked like a manager asked: "Master Tan, do you have a production base for your smoked pickles? I think there are also vacuum-packed ones."

I smiled and said: "I dare not say that the production base has not yet reached that scale, but the step of unified distribution has been achieved. These vacuum-packed smoked pickles are to meet the packaging needs of customers. After the customers eat it, they pack it directly, take it back and cut it It can be eaten at once, which is very convenient and hassle-free.”

"This method is very good, you can take it out directly." Someone in the crowd said.

Another human said: "If it can be produced in batches, it can be sent to the supermarket."

Many people picked up their cameras to take pictures. After all, smoked pickles are not common for southerners. Take a picture and take it back as a souvenir, or go back and study it.

There were also many people in the hot food kitchen. Hao Guangsheng led the tour and explained, and many people took pictures with cameras.There are also people who take pictures with mobile phones, but very few of them. At this time, smart phones are only available, and the price is very expensive, and most people cannot afford them.

When it was time to order pasta, many people became very interested in the "big cream roll". For them, they had never seen such a big big roll, and they were very curious.

"Master Tan, isn't this big flower roll a specialty of your family?" A man with a Hebei accent asked.

"Yes, it's our family's specialty." I said.

"Is there a secret formula?" The man continued to ask.

"Indeed, the production process of this big roll is very particular. There are strict standards in the selection of flour, the proportion of milk, the skill of kneading dough, the technique of coiling flowers, and the time of waking and steaming. Every step You can’t make any deviations.”

"It's really elegant and technical."

"This is the door technology."

"Take a picture."

Another whispered, "I'll ask for the phone number of his pastry chef later."

At this moment, a woman came over and handed me a business card, and said with a smile, "This is my business card. I am the owner of Suzhou 'Xiaoqiao Family'. Do you mind giving me your business card?"

I was a little embarrassed because there was no business card at all.

"Sorry, I don't have a business card, so I'll give you my phone number." After speaking, he told her the phone number.

Immediately afterwards, I received more than ten business cards, some from the front desk manager, some from the head chef, and some from the boss, and told each other their phone numbers one by one.

My reception is very busy, and Li Shuang's is the same. He leads the visitors to see the first floor and the second floor, and after watching the private rooms, they have to explain non-stop, which is more tiring than usual work.

"Excuse me, Manager Li, are you also so passionate in regular meetings?" A female boss who was infected by Li Shuang's passion asked.

Surrounded by more than 20 people, Li Shuang replied with a smile on his face: "Well, I am usually like this. I am the most passionate when I have regular meetings."

"Miss Li, can you show us?" a Cantonese man asked with a thick Cantonese accent.

Li Shuang said with a smile: "It's a bit difficult to show right now, my sisters are busy, let me sing a song for everyone."

"it is good--"

The crowd burst into applause.

Li Shuang liked to go to karaoke when he was in the provincial capital, and he also worked as a karaoke manager. He sang very well, even without music.

After a song was sung, everyone gave warm applause.

"Thank you!" Li Shuang bowed in gratitude.

"I would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone. I hope that we will become friends from today. Fisherman's Wharf is everyone's home. At the same time, I hope that you can give us valuable opinions on our work, thank you!"

Bowed again, generous and decent, and won rounds of applause.

The people around began to disperse slowly, some went to visit other places, some took out their business cards and handed them to Li Shuang, and those who didn't bring their business cards left their phone numbers.To be honest, any boss likes such a manager.

An hour later, the visit to Fisherman's Wharf was over, and the inspection team went out one after another. Li Shuang and Hao Guangsheng led all the staff to stand outside the store and line the road to see them off.

Some unsatisfied took the initiative to invite Li Shuang and Hao Guangsheng to take a group photo as a souvenir. They both took the photo enthusiastically and faced each other with smiles.

Immediately after that is the next stop - coarse grains.

When the coarse grain arrived, Manager Meng, Master Du and Manager Chen had already led all the staff to wait outside the store.

A few days after the last small meeting, Yan Li had a talk with Manager Meng and gave her attention. At the same time, she told her that every executive has the opportunity to study abroad, but the order is different, and she will be sent to study next time. .This conversation was held on the second day after Manager Chen was transferred to the office to do administration. The time was chosen very well. Yan Li's intentions were obvious. If she was still playing tricks, she wouldn't mind adding another vacancy to the office.

Sometimes leadership is an art.

Transferring Manager Chen to work went smoothly, and she also planned not to work in the front-line management post. Just in time for this opportunity, she gave Mr. Wang a favor.

The visit and inspection process in Coarse Grain is the same as that in Fisherman's Wharf.

As the saying goes, there is no difference without comparison.Manager Meng also smiled, but she didn't have Li Shuang's enthusiasm. She was just doing the reception very nervously, and seemed flustered when answering the inspectors' questions.Manager Chen was very relaxed and made up for the shortcomings caused by Manager Meng.

It was already five o'clock when we left Coarse Grain. Teacher Wu and Teacher Zhang said that they would not visit the new store, and started the dinner directly. After the dinner, there will be a sharing session.I, Yan Li, and Mr. Wang have no objection to their proposal, of course, not only do we have no objection, but we are also very happy - the work of receiving people is really tiring.

When they arrived at the new store, Zhou Xiaomei and Li Shuangliang led the staff to greet them, and directly welcomed all the members of the inspection team into the banquet hall.

The big screen in the banquet hall has the subtitle of "Warmly Welcome the Oriental Cuisine Inspection Group". Right in front of the stage is a large sculpture booth with the theme of "Food and Beverage Family".The large-scale foam sculpture "Nine Dragon Wall" is the background, and a group of hollowed-out watermelon lanterns with "Dragon and Phoenix in Prosperity" on the left and right complement each other.

This engraving booth is so stunning.

All members of the inspection team were full of praise, and took out their cameras to take pictures as souvenirs.

Li Shuangliang's younger brother stood in front of the booth with a look of pride and glory in a neat overalls.

This is a master sculptor without compromise!
People with superb skills are respected everywhere.Someone went up to take a photo with him, someone passed a business card, and someone left a phone number.It's as if it's his special show, which makes people envy and hate.

The members of the inspection group gradually dispersed after watching for 10 minutes in front of the booth, and returned to their seats.

Zhou Xiaomei walked onto the stage with a microphone in hand.When she went up, she didn't recognize her at first sight, she thought it was a TV host.The reason is that she didn't wear her usual professional suit, but a blue dress, which was very stunning.The already tall figure looked even taller against the backdrop of the blue dress, just like a model.The hair is pulled up high, looking dignified and noble.With a faint smile on the charming face, a slight nod of the head turns all sentient beings upside down.

He couldn't help but take a closer look, and thought that this woman would be fatal, what kind of man would be able to control her.A few years ago, he was not like this, he was just beautiful, but he did not expect to reach this level now, not only beautiful, but also possesses a charming temperament, with a strong aura.

If she was a peacock in the past, she is now a phoenix ready to soar to the nine heavens.

Now she can no longer be described by the Eighteen Changes of the Female University.

"Respected leaders, ladies and gentlemen, friends from the Oriental Food Red Kitchen Hat inspection team, good evening everyone!"

Zhou Xiaomei opened the banquet tonight with a crisp and sweet voice.

"Warmly welcome everyone to visit our Qinghua Pavilion and guide our work. You have worked hard during the three-day trip to Binhai. Our Binhai is a hospitable city and a good place for sightseeing. There is the prestigious largest public square in Asia. There is The annual World Oktoberfest is full of enthusiasm, there is a beach that you can't forget to return to, and there are beautiful and handsome men worth remembering."

"The shortness of time can't stop our friendship from being forever. The attractive food has brought us closer to each other. I hope that the inspection of Binhai can make every friend gain something. The food of Binhai will make everyone's trip worthwhile."

"The family of Qinghua Pavilion is preparing Bojiu and vegetarian dishes tonight, and warmly entertains friends who come from afar. I hope everyone has an unforgettable night!"

"Wow—" There was applause.

The women applauded for Zhou Xiaomei's wonderful performance, and the men applauded for being subdued.

"Next, we invite Ms. Yan Liyan, the general manager of Qinghuage Catering Management Co., Ltd., to give a speech!" Zhou Xiaomei said in a clear voice.

Yan Li walked onto the stage slowly.

Today, she is capable, energetic, agile, and a domineering female president.

"Good evening everyone!" Yan Li greeted loudly.

"First of all, I would like to thank Dongfang Cuisine for giving us this opportunity in Qinghua Pavilion. It is an honor for us to receive catering colleagues from all over the country. At the same time, I would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone. The whole family of Qinghua Pavilion wishes you good health, happy family and successful career. It's booming!"

"Wow—" applause.

"Our Qinghua Pavilion is a young company. There are still many deficiencies in management. We have a lot to learn from our colleagues. Catering is a family in the country. Wherever the catering people go, they are friends and family. Today we meet and know each other here , I hope everyone will remember Binhai, remember Qinghua Pavilion, whenever you come to Binhai, you are our distinguished guests, and Qinghua Pavilion will definitely provide good wine and warm hospitality."

"Finally, I wish you all a fruitful and successful trip to Binhai!"

After Yan Li finished her speech, she began to show her team style.When Zhou Xiaomei and Li Shuangliang led [-] employees to stand on the stage and start showing, all the members of the inspection team stood up, taking pictures and videotaping.Because the presentation is very exciting, it can be used as a model for learning.

The wonderful display of demeanor drew rounds of applause from everyone.After the end, some people are still unsatisfied.

"Look at this team, how did you build it?" Someone sighed.

"This is the team, unlike those who shout slogans, formalism."

"The management of his family is very good, you can see it."

"I really have to learn from others."

"---"

Listening to the comments of people around me, I feel very proud, and I look at people differently - this is the evaluation given by catering people all over the country.

After the presentation of the team, there was a dance medley. First, there was a national dance performed by 3 waiters in water-green dresses. Although it was not as good as professional dancers, it was still graceful and remarkable. Three minutes later, twelve young men and beauties in T-shirts came up to perform a dynamic hip-hop dance as the music changed.

The music was dynamic and hip-hop was hot, which quickly ignited the enthusiasm of the audience, and many people danced along with it.

After 3 minutes, the music changed again, and it was a fiery money grabbing dance.The 24 performers on the stage danced to the music together. At this time, the waiters and passers-by in the banquet hall also danced in their positions.As soon as they danced, the entire investigation group was also mobilized, so the entire hall danced to the dynamic music, and the atmosphere reached a climax for a while.

At this moment, I have to look at Zhou Xiaomei with admiration.

After the dance was over, everyone sat down slowly amidst Zhou Xiaomei's beautiful singing, and the dishes began to be served one by one.
