"I think it can be okay with hand rolling noodles. We can perform hand -rolled noodles in front of the customer, alas, popping, the scene must be handsome ..."

Unexpectedly, Wang Gaoming's cold water did not dampen Ye Linsen's enthusiasm. It could be heard from his tone that he seemed to be even more excited.

"Can you roll dough?"

Li Yichen asked curiously.

"Uh... no..."

Ye Linsen said awkwardly.

"You can't roll the dough by hand. If you throw the flour at the customer's face, you'll get beaten."

Peng Cheng questioned: "Besides, you've been shaking noodles for a long time, aren't you tired?"

"I won't be tired..."

Ye Linsen said in surprise: "Isn't the chef Brother Yichen?"

Li Yichen: "!"

"Hahaha……"

Amid the laughter of the crowd, the plan to make noodles by hand also failed.

Although two plans in succession failed, everyone's consensus gradually moved closer to fast food.

"Everyone think more about what we can do..."

"We won't do anything..."

"Hahaha……"

In this way, everyone discussed for more than half an hour. Li Yichen felt that the time was ripe and he could now put forward his real ideas.

He was worried that if Ye Linsen and the four of them were allowed to continue discussing like this without any boundaries, it might lead to unpredictable consequences. You know, "Li's Restaurant" was like this, because Li Yichen's unintentional words were caught by Wang Gaoming. of.

By then, if the ratings of "Li's Restaurant" are good after it is broadcast, Wang Gaoming will probably extend what Ye Linsen and the others said today into a spin-off of "Li's Restaurant", "The King of Noodles", etc. It makes me shudder to think about it. .

Too simple...

These four people are still too naive...

If you haven't participated in Wang Gaoming's variety show, you won't really grow.

You can't talk nonsense.

"We only sell fried chicken. This is relatively simple and has a wide audience. Everyone likes to eat it."

Li Yichen said: "The process of making fried chicken should be the most industrial. There are standards for frying temperature, frying time, etc. Everyone can learn it, and after learning it, the taste of the fried chicken will not be the same." More, so everyone can take turns being the chef.”

"Fried chicken is fine, I agree, but as a chef, I still think you, Brother Yichen, are the most suitable."

"That's right, I'm a chef and I'm afraid of blowing up the kitchen."

"I can wash the dishes... it's easy to wash the dishes..."

The dishes had already been discussed. Li Yichen put forward his own idea at this time, which had the final say. The four of them all agreed with Li Yichen's proposal.

"What about this? Let's vote on it."

"Swish"

All five people raised their hands, and the fried chicken plan was unanimously approved.

Chapter 241 Plan ahead

It took Li Yichen and the five of them nearly two hours to unanimously make the decision to sell fried chicken, but after a while, they encountered another problem.

Because there are thousands of ways and flavors of fried chicken, and among the five, only Li Yichen can make a home version of ordinary fried chicken.

Li Yichen has made fried chicken many times according to recipes on the Internet. Although the taste is good, it is far from amazing. He thinks it is unrealistic to sell it in a store.

Because of the aura of "God of Cooking" on his head, Li Yichen has much higher requirements for himself. The fried chicken they want to sell must not have the ordinary taste made from the simple recipes on the Internet.

After thinking for a long time, Li Yichen thought of Qian Haokuang. He felt that although Qian Haokuang was a dessert chef, he should be able to help him.

"You guys discuss the division of labor first. I'll go out and call a friend. He may be able to help us and provide us with an exclusive fried chicken recipe."

After Li Yichen finished speaking, he walked out, went to the restroom of the restaurant, took out his mobile phone and called Qian Haokuang.

After exchanging a few words, Li Yichen directly told Qian Haokuang about "Li Restaurant" and confessed to Qian Haokuang the difficulties they were currently encountering.

"They sell fried chicken... I have a cousin named Qian Haoyang. He used to study cooking abroad with me, but he specializes in Western food. Now he is the Platinum Executive Chef of the Western Food Department of our Qingsi Hotel. Wait a moment. Two minutes, let me ask you."

Qian Haokuang was very enthusiastic about Li Yichen's request. The one-year endorsement contract between Qingsi Culinary Academy and Li Yichen was about to end. Zhengchou didn't know how to get closer to Li Yichen. Now it's rare for Li Yichen to be the first to deal with difficulties when he encounters them. One thought of himself: Qian Haokuang wanted to help Li Yichen get a secret recipe for fried chicken no matter what.

Li Yichen waited for less than 2 minutes before Qian Haokuang called back.

"Yi Chen, my cousin said he can teach you a secret recipe for fried chicken. This secret recipe was taught to him by a famous gourmet friend he met while studying abroad. You should be able to use it."

"Ah...thank you so much!"

Li Yichen solemnly expressed his gratitude to Qian Haokuang, and then the two agreed on a time to learn cooking. Qian Haokuang said that as long as Li Yichen notified him a week in advance, he would let his cousin free up a day to teach Li Yichen the recipes.

The problem was solved. When he walked out of the toilet, Li Yichen felt refreshed.

"We have a recipe, and the platinum executive chef of Qingsi Hotel has promised to spare a day to teach us how to cook."

Back in the private room, Li Yichen happily announced the good news to everyone.

"Wow, that's great!"

"Brother Yichen is really amazing."

"Platinum executive chef..."

Everyone also became happy. After all, if there were no professional chefs to teach them how to cook and provide them with some training, everyone would have no idea.

Qingsi Hotel has been ranked first among five-star hotels in Donghua Province all year round. In particular, their catering department is of Michelin standard. Even if many people don’t know Qingsi Hotel, they must have heard of it as one of the Four Stars of Xia Guo. The famous name of Qingsi Culinary Academy, one of the major culinary training colleges.

This title sounds very reassuring.

Wang Gaoming was also a little surprised that Li Yichen could find a Michelin-level chef to teach them how to cook so quickly.

He originally thought that he would call some gourmet friends tomorrow and ask them to help recommend chefs who could provide cooking training for their restaurants. Now that Li Yichen has solved this difficult problem, it has saved the program team a big thing. .

Li Yichen's circle of friends is indeed magical.

Wang Gaoming once saw with his own eyes that Dong Qiuping and Wang Muyao gave their personal numbers to Li Yichen.

He is indeed a born variety show host. With such super-high-quality connections, he naturally has some advantages over others when doing shows.

After settling the matter of cooking training, the five-person team at Li's restaurant continued to discuss the division of labor.

When discussing the menu just now, Li Yichen tentatively asked them if they wanted to take turns being chefs, but they obviously didn't have this intention, so Li Yichen didn't force it. Every aspect of the work in the restaurant is equally important, provided that they You can divide everyone's responsibilities well to avoid everyone wandering around like a bunch of headless flies when the restaurant is busy.

"Two people in the kitchen and three in the lobby?"

When Li Yichen went out to make a call, Chen Sihua and Wu Xiayong had already initially discussed the division of labor.

"Xia Yong worked in a restaurant and stayed in the kitchen to help. He was Brother Yichen's assistant cook."

After Chen Sihua finished talking about Wu Xiayong's division of labor, she pointed at herself and Ye Linsen.

"The two of us can take care of ordering and cashiering."

"They are also responsible for performing singing, dancing and rapping for customers in their free time."

Peng Cheng added with a smile.

"how about you?"

Li Yichen asked.

"I wash dishes, I wash dishes...it's called a smart dishwasher,"

Peng Cheng casually gave himself a nickname, making everyone laugh.

"Chen Sihua, Ye Linsen, you two are at the front desk and responsible for selling drinks. Qingsi Culinary Academy has a 'one-day class' project. You can spend a day learning to get a barista certificate and improve our restaurant. profit."

Li Yichen suggested that if you only sell fried chicken, the profit may not be very high.

After all, they are a variety show targeting a very large audience. The price of fried chicken must be within the average market price, not too high or too low.

They cannot set prices randomly just because they are only recording one season of "Lee's Restaurant", otherwise it will easily disrupt the fried chicken market and harm the restaurants that sell fried chicken.

They are doing programs, while others are doing life.

Li Yichen doesn't want to ruin other people's lives because of the show, which goes against his values.

Therefore, if Li's Restaurant is to make a certain profit without losing money, they must consider selling homemade drinks.

And if possible, when he wanted to learn fried chicken recipes from Qian Haokuang, he would ask them to recommend some simple dishes to add to the menu.

Even if you can't do it when you open it, you can add new dishes after the five-person team is almost in tune and everyone is familiar with their respective jobs.

Plan ahead.

Li Yichen feels that if people don't think carefully about all the problems that may be encountered when opening a restaurant, they will not have time to take care of these problems when the restaurant opens.

The five-person group in the restaurant chatted until late at night, and then ended their first meeting.

Before leaving, Wang Gaoming reminded the five people to participate in the "employee pre-job fire safety training", and the program team was preparing to apply for a fire safety license.

In this way, in order for "Li's Restaurant" to open smoothly, the program team led by Wang Gaoming is advancing the progress of various plans in an orderly manner.

Li Yichen, Chen Sihua, Wu Xiayong, Ye Linsen and Peng Cheng also made two separate appointments in the following week, continuing to share and discuss their newly learned knowledge of opening a restaurant and the ins and outs of the catering industry. There are too many ways.

Under Li Yichen's deliberate guidance, the other four people clearly realized that they must ensure the quality of service and increase the restaurant's turnover as much as possible on the premise that the program can be recorded smoothly, so everyone is under pressure. It's getting worse day by day.

Chapter 242 Rules in the Kitchen

mid March.

The program team once again gathered the five of them, Li Yichen, to go to the Qingsi Culinary Academy together.

Among them, Li Yichen, Wu Xiayong and Peng Cheng will learn how to make fried chicken from Chef Qian Haoyang, Qian Haokuang's cousin, while Chen Sihua and Ye Linsen will get their barista certificates and learn about drinks.

"Director Wang, long time no see."

"Yichen, we haven't seen each other for seven or eight months."

In the lobby of Qingsi Culinary Arts Academy, Qian Haokuang was specially waiting for the arrival of Li Yichen and his party.
