Feng Yifan returned to the restaurant from the kindergarten, and it happened that the matching tables and chairs, tablecloths, decorations, tablecloths and tableware ordered by the restaurant had been delivered.

Shi Jiahui and Catherine are taking people to conduct an inventory to make sure that the batch of items ordered is not missing.

After Feng Yifan entered the door, he saw Catherine and they were counting, and the men seemed to be doing nothing.

He immediately clapped his hands and called the men together and said, "Okay, men, our ladies are taking an inventory. Let's do it together. First assemble these tables and chairs, and then put them all out. See how it should be placed."

When the men heard Feng Yifan's words, they rolled up their sleeves and started to work.

The first is to unpack all the tables and chairs, and then everyone divides the work and starts to install the tables and chairs.

There are 22 sets of tables and chairs in total.

After the inventory was completed, Feng Yifan greeted everyone to prepare for display.

At this time, Shi Jiahui said, "You want to put up the tables and chairs, do you want to call Ruoxi? How do you say that she is also the boss, don't you ask for the advice of the boss?"

Feng Yifan listened and said with a smile, "I, the boss, is here, so I need to ask the boss?"

Luo Yu immediately said, "Of course, you are the chef and you are responsible for the quality of the dishes, but the layout of the restaurant must be approved by the proprietress."

Feng Yifan was a little helpless: "Is my boss so miserable?"

This sentence made everyone laugh immediately.

While laughing, everyone said in unison: "Of course you have to listen to the boss."

No way, Feng Yifan had to call home, and then everyone waited for Su Ruoxi to come.

When Su Ruoxi called Feng Yifan to make him remember to send her daughter a snack, she was already taking a nap, so she rushed to her with her mother-in-law Lu Cuiling when she received the call.

Stepping into the restaurant, under the leadership of Catherine and Luo Yu, everyone except Shi Jiahui immediately greeted the proprietress respectfully.

"Welcome to the boss."

Su Ruoxi was taken aback first, then looked at everyone a little strangely, and finally set her eyes on her husband's face and asked, "What's the situation?"

Feng Yifan also looked helpless: "I don't know, anyway, now my boss can't say anything. Everyone unanimously requested that the restaurant layout should be up to you, the boss."

Su Ruoxi is a bit strange: "But, the western restaurant is rented by Ma Xiaolong, and didn't it mean that Catherine and the others should run it? Why am I now the boss?"

Ma Xiaolong said immediately: "The rent is not much. Besides, some of our subsequent decorations were not designed by the boss, you must help yourself? So, you must be the boss. We will definitely follow your arrangements and instructions."

Catherine also said: "Yes, Hans and Tom and I are just in charge of the back kitchen. The owner of the restaurant has the final say."

Su Ruoxi listened and smiled and looked at her husband: "Is that true?"

Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Well, it should be like this, but the lady boss remembers to pay them a salary."

Su Ruoxi suddenly exclaimed: "Oh, none of us have signed an employment contract."

Shi Jiahui smiled and said, "Do we still need to sign any employment contract?"

Su Ruoxi smiled and said, "Yes, or I won't pay by that time."

Lu Cuiling gave another plan: "Don't sign any employment contracts. Just divide the restaurant into as many shares as each person owns a part of the shares. At the end of the year, you should share the annual profit according to the number of shares. Up?"

Feng Yifan and Su Ruoxi think that their mother's idea is good, but it is also good for everyone to ask for their opinions.

But before the two could speak, Catherine, Hans, and Tom had agreed.

Chen Xu and Luo Yu also agreed.

Luo Yu also smiled and said: "We are here mainly to study, but in the end we can get a share for nothing. This is what we made."

Feng Yifan said: "Since everyone agrees, then we will go back to find a professional person to help divide the western restaurant's shares, so that everyone will get a share and get a dividend at the end of the year."

Su Ruoxi said: "Not only the western restaurant, but also Su Ji."

Feng Yifan looked at his wife and said, "Su Ji? Su Ji belongs to your family."

Su Ruoxi asked earnestly, "Then you think, let everyone go to Su Ji to cook, how much do you plan to give everyone a month?"

Feng Yifan also got serious: "As much money as you want, but Su Ji certainly can't be divided into shares."

Shi Jiahui smiled and said, "It's okay. As for Su Ji, we definitely can't ask for shares. After all, Su Ji is also Ruoxi's family restaurant, which is considered an ancestral property. It's been passed down for hundreds of years, but you can't just split it up casually."

Others also agreed, and said that with shares in the western restaurant, Su Ji's wages can be less.

Feng Yifan went on to say very seriously: "Well, since I invited everyone to come over, then Su Ji’s wages, we will follow the standard, first compare the back kitchen of Fu Jinglou, and then as Su Ji’s reputation improves, we will The restaurant standards corresponding to the photos are settled."

Shi Jiahui heard this and said, "Yifan, if you are like this, you will have to invest a lot of money in the early stage."

Feng Yifan was very confident and asked the elder sister: "Could it be that everyone does not believe in my strength?"

Such a sentence made everyone feel a little bit of awe in an instant.

What Feng Yifan said has shown that he has the confidence to turn Su Ji into a top restaurant, which can make Su Ji profitable in a short time and can afford everyone's high wages.

Since the bosses are so confident, naturally everyone has no objections.

Next, under the design of the proprietress Su Ruoxi, everyone quickly placed 22 tables.

According to Su Ruoxi's arrangement, a foothold was set aside where the restaurant enters the door, so that people can feel a sense of openness when they come in.

From the perspective, you can directly see the open back kitchen from the door.

The part of the dining table near the door, the dining table against the wall is neatly placed in a row into the dining room, completely surrounding the back kitchen on three sides.

The remaining part is arranged at the front end of the kitchen counter.

In addition, the square dining tables are not placed in alignment, but placed at an oblique angle, so as to maximize the use of the interior space of the dining room.

Although there are no large tables in the entire restaurant, if there are more guests coming together, two or even three tables can be spliced ​​together so that the seats can be expanded.

Under Su Ruoxi's command, Feng Yifan led the men and quickly arranged all the tables and chairs as required.

Shi Jiahui and Catherine have also counted other things.

Catherine said: "Chef, everything is ready, we just wait for your order to open."

Feng Yifan smiled and asked, "Are you all ready? What about the ingredients?"

This sentence caught Catherine for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "Oh, I forgot all the ingredients, we still need to purchase a lot of ingredients."

Feng Yifan took out the list that had been made in advance.

"On top of this, I have already purchased the foreign ingredients and some domestic special ingredients in advance. The rest of the more common vegetables will be divided into several waves these days. Go to several markets in Huaicheng to take a look. I bought everything."

Lu Cuiling looked at it and said, "Is it really possible to purchase all of these things in the Huaicheng market? Or I will ask Qingsong to help, and look for help from other places to transfer some."

Feng Yifan said: "Mom who doesn't use it, most of these are more common ingredients. They can definitely be bought in the local market. Letting them buy is also a kind of exercise for them."

Seeing that everyone had agreed, Lu Cuiling didn't say anything more.

After everything was assigned, Catherine suddenly offered some suggestions.

"Chef, I think the first appetizer of your Hexian set meal should be changed. You should not use the same appetizer as the other set meal."

Feng Yifan listened to Catherine and asked, "Oh? So, do you have your own ideas?"

Catherine then brought out a dish she had prepared.

On the white plate, there are very small crystal clear shrimp dumplings.

Feng Yifan was a little surprised when he saw this.

"Catherine did you make this?"

Catherine said: "I discussed this with Chen Xu and Luo Yu. It is in the form of Chinese traditional shrimp dumplings, with fresh river prawns on the bread, and some caviar. We also follow your appetizer for the seasoning. The dishes are seasoned with savory and slightly spicy flavors.

And Chen Xu also added a special flavor to it, so we would like to invite the chef to taste it. "

Feng Yifan smiled at Catherine, then looked at Chen Xu and Luo Yu again.

Under everyone's expectant gaze, he picked up a small shrimp dumpling.

The skin of the small dumplings is very thin, showing a translucent state, and you can clearly see the rich fillings inside.

After taking a closer look, Feng Yifan opened his mouth and ate the shrimp dumplings.

I started to chew in my mouth. The shrimps were slightly flicked and paired with delicious caviar. It was really delicious. In addition to the salty and spicy flavors, there was also a slightly sour flavor, which just neutralized the two flavors. .

Such a small shrimp dumpling really meets the requirements of an appetizer.

After Feng Yifan finished eating, he said seriously: "Well, yes, replace the previous appetizer with this dish and put it in the Hexian set meal."

With such permission, Catherine, Chen Xu, and Luo Yu were suddenly excited.

Feng Yifan went on to say: "Unexpectedly, you actually developed such a new dish in such a few days."

Chen Xu immediately said, "Chef, we were actually inspired by your appetizer."

Luo Yu also said: "Yes, your appetizer is French shortbread. We will discuss whether we can use another Chinese dim sum as an appetizer?"

Catherine continued: "Chen Xu and Luo Yu approached me and put forward their suggestions. I think they can really try. Then we made a lot of Chinese noodles, steamed buns, dumplings, and even siu mai. In the end, we I've confirmed this small shrimp dumpling."

Feng Yifan smiled and said, "It seems that Chen Xu should have done this, right?"

Chen Xu said: "No, I am responsible for the skin, the sous chef for the seasoning, and Luo Yu did the final shaping."

Catherine nodded: "Yes, the three of us did it together."

Feng Yifan said: "So, we need to brainstorm. I hope that there will be more cooperation between you in the future, so that we can make more good dishes."

Everyone also absorbed this, and they all began to think about their dishes.

Lu Cuiling took a closer look at the shrimp dumplings on the plate, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh, this little dumpling is too delicate. I really admire your craftsmanship for being able to make such small and exquisite dumplings. ."

Luo Yu immediately said, "Aunt Lu, please try it."

When Lu Cuiling picked one up, Luo Yu gave the rest to everyone.

After everyone tasted it, they were all amazed by the taste of these little dumplings.

The dumplings are not big, the same as the previous ham roll shortbread, but just the size of a bite.

But the filling is full of rich flavor.

The first is naturally the salty and freshness of the shrimp and fish roe, and then the slightly spicyness of the sharp pepper rings mixed in it, and the blending of them neutralizes the taste of the two flavors, and it is a very fresh and sour taste.

After tasting it carefully, Ma Xiaolong couldn't help but ask: "Is this last sourness vinegar?"

Chen Xu nodded and said, "Yes, it's vinegar."

Lin Ruifeng was a little strange: "But how did you make this vinegar into dumplings? The key is the taste of this vinegar, which seems to be very special."

Chen Xu smiled and said: "We actually used the skin jelly. The boiled pig skin jelly was added with Zhenjiang rice vinegar. After a little cooking, it was frozen into a skin jelly in the refrigerator and then mixed into the filling. The small dumplings steamed in this way will have this vinegar aroma when they are inside."

Su Ruoxi was a little surprised when she heard it: "It's really a shame that you can figure it out. This idea is so amazing."

Feng Yifan smiled and said: "I'll give you a suggestion. I think you should steam the dumplings first, and decorate them with caviar when you put them on the plate. This way, the caviar will not lose its flavor."

Hearing this suggestion, Luo Yu immediately said: "Yes, I said that before. Look, it turns out that the chef agreed with me."

Feng Yifan continued: "Change the shape of the dumplings, leaving an opening on the top for the caviar to be put on the plate at the end."

Under Feng Yifan's suggestion, Chen Xu, Luo Yu and Catherine also tried quickly.

The work of making the skin is Chen Xulai, and Catherine is responsible for the seasoning of the fillings, and finally Luo Yu kneads and shapes.

Feng Yifan gave some pointers. When making the dumplings, the dumplings left an opening on the back, so that when they were put in a steamer and steamed, they looked like small dumplings with blooming backs.

After waiting for it to cool down, put the caviar in the opening on the back of the dumpling when placing the plate.

It just held the caviar, making the small dumplings distinct black and white, which also added a touch of ink and wash.

After reading it, Su Ruoxi said, "Well, it's great. Like the other appetizer, it also has two colors, one is red and orange, and this one is black and white."

In this way, an innovative dish is considered complete and officially put into the menu of a western restaurant.
