Chapter 825 Black and red top-notch scheming stepsister (12)
Chen Lu said "Eh": "Emerald Alley? I remember Xu Yin's restaurant was opened there. We went there last Christmas."
Xu Yin put down the pen, took off the mask and said: "Well, my restaurant also participated in the 'Hutong Food Festival' event, so I plan to go to the store to help at Christmas. I can't spend the holidays with you this year. After the exam, I will ask you
Go to my store to eat."
"Oh, restaurants are the busiest on Christmas and New Year's Day, so we can understand."
"How about we go and help too?"
"Yes, we can't do anything else, but we can distribute flyers on the streets."
Since we are going to have a big meal after the exam, shouldn’t we also put in some work?
Xu Yin couldn't resist them, so she nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll ask my dad to prepare more flyers. I'll bother you then."
"What's the trouble? I think it's quite meaningful."
"Then it's settled!"
In the blink of an eye, Christmas came, and Xu Yin took her three roommates to Jade Alley.
Food Festival Christmas, the festive atmosphere is very strong, Christmas decorations can be seen everywhere, the alleys are crowded, and many high-end restaurants have already experienced waiting tables.
Dad Xu's "Nostalgia Restaurant", which has a low-key appearance and an even more low-key name, is located at the end of the alley. It is not yet fully occupied.
However, as the flow of people increased, the tourists were all hungry when it was time to eat. After receiving the flyer distributed by Qian Mingyue and the others, they saw the signature dishes on the flyer, which seemed quite tempting, so they were in the mood to try it.
, came to Xu’s father’s restaurant.
When there are more diners, Father Xu, the head chef, is naturally very busy.
"Dad, let me help you."
Xu Yin put on an apron with the name of the store on it and went to the kitchen.
Father Xu was startled, "Why are you here? It's very hot here, go out and play."
"Dad, turn on all three woks, and I'll stir them for you. This will serve the food faster, so God won't have to wait too long."
"God?"
"Yes, the customer is God."
Father Xu couldn't help laughing, it was true.
He scooped up the dishes in the pot neatly and brought them to the waiter Xiao Wu, preparing to wash the pot and move on to the next dish.
Xu Yin reached out and took the pot in his hand.
Father Xu's eyes froze.
It was difficult for Xiao Wu to lift the heavy iron pot with one hand, and even if he managed to lift it, he couldn't move it.
But his daughter, a girl, could actually hold an iron pot with one hand, rinse it easily under the tap, and even do a few flipping movements after washing it.
Xu Yin put the dry iron pot on the stove: "Dad, what are you waiting for? I can move it!"
"..."
…
“The chicken pot at table 3 is here!”
“This is the stir-fried yellow beef from table 6!”
"This is the spicy bullfrog you ordered, and a salt and pepper shrimp dish will be coming soon!"
“The Mingzhou grilled fish at table 12 is good!”
"Bamboo shredded chicken soup at table 5! Your dishes are all here!"
Following Xiao Wu's loud shout, dishes with Nancheng characteristics were delivered from the back kitchen to the diners' tables.
Looking at the delicious, tasty and tasty dishes, the already hungry diners moved their fingers.
"Hmm! This grilled fish is so authentic! It's exactly the same as the one I had when I went to Mingzhou for a business trip five years ago."
"The bamboo shredded chicken soup is delicious! The soup is golden and clear. It looks like genuine hen soup, not chicken essence or chicken juice."
"Waiter, has your chef changed? I ordered spicy bullfrog last week, and it tasted a little different from today."
Xiao Wu's heart skipped a beat when he was stopped. He had just entered the kitchen and saw the boss's daughter stir-frying the bullfrog. Otherwise, the food wouldn't have been served so quickly. Could it have been spoiled?
He was about to redeem himself a few words, but he heard the customers praising while eating: "Today's dish is even more delicious! The bullfrog is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the heat is just right; the chili and garlic are put in just right, not too much."
It's spicy, and it masks the fishy smell of the bullfrog itself. It's not that the last chef's dish wasn't delicious, it's just because it's delicious that I ordered this dish again today. But compared to today's dish, it's still so bad.
A little bit. Your boss is very good at choosing chefs..."
Xiao Wu: "..."
I returned to the kitchen almost dizzy.
"Xiao Wu, why are you so dazed? Hurry up and pass the dishes!" The fat lady in charge of the cashier patted his shoulder, "The steamed cakes from table 10 and the steamed dumplings from table 7 can be served. Table 9
The grilled fish is almost ready, please make it quicker!”
"oh oh."
Xiao Wu suddenly came to his senses and hurried to the back kitchen. He first delivered the dim sum in the steamer to the diners in the order they ordered. Then back to the back kitchen, the boss and his daughter were in charge of grilling fish and cooking.
.
While Father Xu was cooking the grilled fish, he paid special attention to his daughter. He watched her complete two stir-fried dishes - one bullfrog and one yellow beef. When they came out of the pan, they tasted them with serving chopsticks and gave her a thumbs up.
: "You are better than your master! Haha! Yin Yin, Dad, don't worry that you won't be able to find a job in the future. At worst, you will take over Dad's small restaurant."
Now, Father Xu was really relieved. His daughter was not only very strong, but also knew how to cook, and she was also very good at cooking.
For example, it is also a spicy bullfrog dish, but my daughter made an improved version that is more unique and delicious.
The same goes for the yellow beef, which is tender and smooth, and the sharp pepper is spicy and enjoyable. It makes people have endless aftertaste, and the more they eat, the more they want to eat.
Xu Yin put the dishes on a plate and handed them to Xiao Wu. While washing the pot, she said, "Dad, I will come to the store to help you after the holiday."
"No need now, let's talk about it after you graduate."
Xu's father thinks that students should study hard. The current situation at home is decent. Although he has to pay back a lot of loans every month, the flow of money in the store is not bad. He can still work now, so how can he let his children worry about it.
"When dad gets old and can no longer work, this store will be handed over to you."
"I'll help you when the store is busy."
Father Xu is right. Her current main occupation is studying. She is almost halfway through her four years in college, and she has not yet accomplished anything in her studies. She is known as Yin, a dropout.
What's more, if she can get full grades this semester, she will apply for a second major at the beginning of next semester, which will leave her with not much spare time.
Fortunately, the restaurant is extremely busy, and only on a few important holidays. On weekdays and even on weekends, the flow of people on this street is not so crowded.
If business was as good as it is today, Father Xu would have hired a sous chef to help him.
With Xu Yin in charge of the second stove cooking, Father Xu's pressure has been reduced a lot.
Among the diners who come to the restaurant, the most ordered dish is Mingzhou grilled fish, a specialty of Xu’s father’s hometown. It combines three cooking techniques of pickling, roasting and stewing, which is quite time-consuming.
Especially when there are a lot of people, it’s easy for diners to complain when they can’t wait any longer, but today there was so much traffic in the store that even the tables were turned over, which still appeased all the diners – because the cooking was very smooth.
With Xu Yin's magical power, turning the pot is just like drizzle, and stir-frying over high heat will cook the vegetables quickly, with less water loss, and the fried vegetables will be more tender, with better texture and color.
