Chapter 172 High Price (300 Months)

"Lao Zhang, what's wrong with you? Why are you still crying?"

Hou Jin also wanted to pick up a steamed dumpling with his chopsticks, but he stopped there and asked in surprise.

The beautiful woman sitting next to him reacted quickly and immediately took out a piece of napkin and handed it to Lao Zhang.

"Thanks!"

Lao Zhang took the tissue, casually wiped the tears on his face, swallowed the steamed dumplings in his mouth, and apologized with a wry smile: "I'm sorry! I made you laugh."

Hou Jinbiao didn't want an apology. He frowned and asked, "Lao Zhang, what's going on? Does this dumpling... remind you of the taste of your dad's dumplings?"

What he asked was not very clear.

But everyone here understood it.

Lao Zhang pursed his lips and nodded, "Yeah, yes! When I was little, I always liked to run to my dad's kitchen, especially when he was making whole sheep feasts. I liked to stay in the kitchen, anywhere.

I don’t want to go. My dad made a whole lamb feast with more than a dozen dishes, maybe because I was too young at the time! Anyway, my favorite thing to eat is steamed lamb dumplings...

But also because I was too young at that time, I only remember that the steamed mutton dumplings were very fresh and delicious, but I don’t remember the specific taste.

But the steamed dumplings I just ate tasted a lot like the mutton steamed dumplings my dad made back then...really!"

Hou Jinbiao: "..."

The two beauties didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a moment of silence, Hou Jinbiao grinned and said, "Okay, then you can eat more!"

As he said that, Hou Jinbiao couldn't help but be curious, took a steamed dumpling, took a bite, tasted it, and nodded, "Well, not bad! It's quite fresh."

But his expression was obviously not as exaggerated as Lao Zhang just now.

With his wealth, he would have long been tired of eating all kinds of delicacies.

It’s impossible to be too surprised by a little bit of steamed mutton dumplings.

The atmosphere at the table quickly returned to what it was before. The two beauties were eating happily. They didn't use their chopsticks much for the haggis platter, but they both liked the hot steamed mutton dumplings and used their chopsticks frequently.

“Serve!”

Tongdao Xu's shout came from the kitchen again.

Cao Min trotted into the kitchen immediately, and not long after, she came out with a plate of plain mutton.

Compared to the haggis platter that was brought out first, the grade of plain mutton is a bit higher.

The difference can be seen from the exquisiteness of the presentation.

Each piece of mutton is cut very flat, and on a round white plate, the white-cut mutton is cut into a willow leaf shape and arranged in the shape of a flower.

In order to sell the whole sheep feast tonight, Tongdao Xu prepared all day today.

Each dish of the whole sheep feast has been processed into semi-finished products that can be served within a few minutes.

At this time, there was only one table of customers in his shop, namely Hou Jinbiao and others, so Comrade Xu served the dishes very quickly.

Every two or three minutes, he calls out "food is served."

After the white-cut mutton, there is the braised mutton, then the hot-boiled mutton, then the mutton and scorpion pot, hand-caught mutton, salt and pepper lamb chops, salt and pepper lamb trotters, mutton soup... and so on, one after another dishes with mutton as the main ingredient.

Like running water, it was served to Jinbiao's table.

During this period, he asked Xi Dongyang to notify Ge Lianghua to grill the mutton kebabs, and then serve them to Hou Jinbiao and others.

The twelve dishes before and after are all related to sheep.

It not only opened the eyes of Hou Jinbiao’s table of four people, but also opened the eyes of everyone in Xu Tongdao’s shop.

Whether it was Xi Dongyang, Ge Lianghua, Xu Tonglin, Huang Mei, Cao Min and Fang Fang, where had they seen such an all-sheep feast before?

Never heard of it, never mind that mutton can be cooked in so many ways.

During this period, two more tables of customers walked into the store and ordered barbecue and other dishes.

The eyes of the guests at these two tables were also frequently attracted by the dishes on Hou Jinbiao's table.

In fact, the dishes on their table looked much higher quality than the cold dishes and barbecue they ordered.

Everyone has curiosity.

A woman at one of the tables couldn't help but ask the waiter Cao Min in a low voice - what kind of dishes are on that table?

After hearing Cao Min's introduction, several people at the table were surprised.

Whole sheep feast?

Can such a small shop prepare such a high-end whole sheep feast?

They want to eat too.

Then he asked Cao Min the price of the whole sheep feast.

Cao Min really didn't know the price of a full set of whole sheep feast, after all, their store just launched the whole sheep feast tonight.

So she quickly went to the kitchen to ask Xu Tongdao.

"188!"

Comrade Xu said a price that shocked Cao Min.

"Is it so expensive? Boss, are you wrong?"

She seriously doubted that he said an extra "1", and also a little doubted whether she heard it wrong.

But Xu Tongdao told her, "That's right! That's the price. You can tell them that every dish in the whole sheep feast can be ordered a la carte, and it won't cost much to order a la carte."

Cao Min was speechless.

But Tongdao Xu is the boss. Since he said he would sell it at this price, she could only go out and tell the customers this.

When she went out, Xi Dongyang, who was standing next to Xu Tongdao, was also surprised and asked: "Is 188 too expensive?"

Comrade Xu was washing his hands with soap under the faucet.

After cooking so many mutton-related meat dishes in a row, his hands were stained with a lot of mutton fat.

Hearing Xi Dongyang ask the same question, Xu Tongdao smiled faintly, "Brother Xi! Have you ever heard of the principle that rare things are more valuable? Not every chef can cook a whole sheep feast, even in this county, except for us

There is probably no other restaurant that can make a whole lamb feast! Besides, mutton is expensive. A portion of mutton pot in an ordinary restaurant will cost 25 to 30 yuan. If you go to a star hotel, it will be even more expensive.

, and, didn’t you see that I prepared a whole day for this whole sheep feast? Why don’t we pay more for such a labor-intensive dish?

Besides, if such a labor-intensive whole-lamb banquet cannot be sold at a high price, then we might as well just sell mutton skewers and cold dishes! Why bother?"

Both Cao Min and Xi Dongyang felt that a whole-sheep banquet of 188 was too expensive.

But Tongdao Xu didn't think it was expensive at all.

He clearly remembered when he worked in the internal kitchen of the power company in this county in 2008. At that time, the kitchen was contracted to a private owner.

The quality is completely incomparable to that of a star hotel. The kitchen is only a small kitchen of about 20 square meters.

But one day, the boss received an order. He specially bought a batch of Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs from the place of origin, as well as several other rare ingredients.

Those dishes were cooked by him, Comrade Xu.

His monthly salary at that time was 4,000.

But for just that table of dishes and a few bottles of wine, the boss dared to charge more than 10,000 yuan.

At that time, everyone in their kitchen was shocked.

But the host of that table actually paid the bill.

From that time on, Tongdao Xu understood.

In the catering industry, as long as you can provide guests with special enjoyment, there is no problem if the price is doubled.

He had seen a lot of similar phenomena during his years as a caterer.

This is also one of the main reasons why he has been wanting to make a whole-sheep feast recently. He is confident that he can make a whole-sheep feast, but currently there may not be many in this county or even in the city that can make a whole-sheep feast.

Then the whole sheep feast he made is qualified to sell at a high price.
