my awesome boss

Chapter 98 Food Critic

A Ferrari parked in front of Shantou Steak House.

Xia Jian said thank you to Frank in standard French and got out of the car.

Shangdu Steak House is really domineering, located in the best location in the city center, the rent here is ten times more expensive than other places.

The waiter at the door said to Xia Jian with a very skilled smile: "Welcome."

But Xia Jian saw a trace of disdain in the other party's eyes, and obviously felt that Xia Jian's body was too shabby.

He must have not seen Xia Jian get off the Ferrari.

Xia Jian also felt uncomfortable, and walked in swaggeringly.

The size of the entire restaurant is very large, equivalent to a small supermarket. Looking at the menu on the sign, it is also very scary. An ordinary steak sells for seven or eight hundred.

One of the most attractive places in the restaurant is that there is a big iron plate in front of the dining table, and the steak master cooks all kinds of steaks on the iron plate in front of customers, making a sizzling sound.

This is also a gimmick of the restaurant, every customer can see the whole process of steak making by the steak master on the spot.

"Sir, our steak masters here are divided into elementary, intermediate, and advanced. Which grade do you choose?"

At this time, a waiter walked up to Xia Jian, bowed his body and said kindly.

Xia Jian thinks it's very fresh. When choosing a steak here, he first chooses the steak master, and then chooses the type of steak.It's like going to a barber's for a haircut.

"Sorry, I still have a companion who hasn't arrived."

"Sir, why don't you have a drink first, we have freshly squeezed juice here, which is very nutritious."

"No, I don't like drinks, give me a glass of water."

The waiter was a middle-aged woman in her early thirties with a slight build and some freckles on her face. She looked at Xia Jian's cheap T-shirt and showed an unpleasant gesture.

She has seen many guests here, but she has never seen such a shabby person, who looks like a poor man.

She judged that this person must not know the price here, so she walked in casually.

There are hundreds of drinks here, and I probably can't afford to order them.

"Okay, sir." The freckled woman walked away politely, that's how they usually train.

After a while, a glass of water was brought up. Xia Jian drank the water and looked around the entire restaurant, and also carefully watched the process of the steak master making the steak.

Xia Jian could tell at a glance that these steak masters should be at the elementary or intermediate level.

"Change me to another master, this one won't work!"

At this moment, two tables away from Xia Jian, a woman was complaining to the waiter with dissatisfaction on her face.

However, when Xia Jian saw the woman's face, his heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect to meet a top-notch beauty just by having a meal.

The woman is wearing a long blue dress, her oval face is crystal clear like jade, her skin is smooth and delicate, her short hair is trimmed to her ears, and her whole body exudes a capable atmosphere. Although her skin is not white, it is healthy and wheat-colored, as if she has traveled all over the country like.

But there is only one shortcoming, that is, the chest is too flat, a bit like an airport, Xia Jian can't help but feel a bit regretful.

At this moment, the woman was frowning and yelling at the waiter, which more or less made people's impression of her somewhat discounted.

"Miss, you have already changed two steak masters. The one just now was the senior master, and it is already the best here. There is no need to change again."

A man dressed as a manager was quelling the woman's complaints, and his voice was kept as low as possible, for fear of disturbing other guests.

Nie Shihan completely disregarded other people's feelings, and said in a louder voice: "You guys advertise the best steak in China, but I eat it here and there, but I don't get the taste I want. You can go find it again. Is there a better master."

The male manager was a little angry. He almost regarded the other party as someone sent by a competitor to make trouble.

There are only two senior steak masters in the entire restaurant. Their cooking skills are top-notch, and they have won the silver medal in the National Steak Competition. They are all hired by the company with high salaries. How could they not taste good.

"Miss, don't make trouble for no reason. The steak master here is the best in the country. The guests have not said that they are dissatisfied. If you do this again, I will kick you out."

The male manager frowned, ready to turn his back on him.

Not only did this threat not work, Nie Shihan intensified it and became more vicious:

"Why should I be kicked out? I spent money. The customer is God. Don't think that you can do whatever you want because you are more famous in Shangdu Huafu. If you don't call a good master, I will call Zhenhai Daily editor-in-chief Zhou Shuying."

Heh, this girl is really determined. It seems that the steaks that are not late will not go home.

Xia Jian couldn't help being a little interested in her. I've seen someone who has a firm stance in marriage, and I've seen someone who has a firm stance in work, but I've never seen someone who is so persistent in eating.

Obviously, this sentence played a certain role, and the male manager became timid, "Miss, this is not good. Our Shangdu steak has always been sought after by the media and has received rave reviews."

It seems that the editor-in-chief Zhou Shuying has a lot of influence.

"What's wrong, this lady is the food consultant handpicked by the editor-in-chief Zhou Shuying, if I say you are not good, you are not good."

After a long time, it turned out that this girl is a food critic, no wonder she is so particular about food.

Upon hearing this, the male manager began to soften, and stepped aside to chat with a more senior executive beside him for a while.

After the chat, the male manager came over with his head down, and said to Nie Shihan with a forced smile: "We do have a steak chef here, but we don't know if he is willing to come over, so I can only call you." Ask on the phone."

Xia Jian was also taken aback, what kind of steak master is this?

"Is this master very powerful?"

However, Nie Shihan was in high spirits. Such an embarrassing master means that the steak he cooks must be top-notch, and he might be able to taste the steak he likes.

A look of pride flashed in the manager's eyes, and he suddenly spoke a little louder: "Of course, he is our super steak master, who specializes in serving top VIP customers, and is a well-known figure in the Chinese steak industry."

It turns out that in addition to elementary, intermediate, and advanced, there is also a special level.

"Okay, I'll wait here, you must call him over." Nie Shihansi jumped for joy and said excitedly.

The manager walked to the side, picked up the phone at the front desk, and dialed out. After a while, she heard her voice timidly begging.

"Jack, there is a female guest here who wants to eat your steak, can you come over?"

Xia Jian's ears were very sharp, and he heard the person on the other end of the phone yell like scolding: "You old wood, do you know what I'm doing, don't bother me."
