Chapter 1245: Qin Yingyue who protects her shortcoming
The man with glasses retracted his hand in embarrassment and said with a smile:
"Of course, Mr. Shen, walk slowly."
Shen Shuyi turned her head and said to the waiter:
"Let's go in."
"Okay, please come with me."
Under the guidance of the waiter, the group of three entered the VIP box.
There are two in every store. Although they are not commonly used, they would rather be empty than open to the public.
"Can you call your manager?" Shen Shuyi asked.
"Okay, please wait a moment."
The waiter didn't ask why. The VIP guest made such a request and he just had to comply.
Soon, the restaurant manager came to the private room.
"Hello Mr. Shen, I am the manager of Guangdong Haihui. Welcome to our store."
Shen Shuyi smiled and nodded, then looked at Lin Yi and said:
"I have a chef here and I want him to cook some dishes. Is it okay to borrow your kitchen?"
"Of course, that's no problem."
As a manager, he knows very well what status these people with membership cards have in China.
Although this request is a bit excessive, there is no right to refuse.
"It's time for you to show off your skills." Shen Shuyi looked at Lin Yi and said.
"I'll go eat whatever you want now."
"Kung pao chicken, plain chicken, and baked lobster in soup, these three will come first. I'll order the rest of the side dishes from the menu."
"Okay, I'll go to the kitchen and take a look."
"good."
Under the leadership of the manager, Lin Yi went to the kitchen.
"Master Wang, please put down what you are doing first. I have something to tell you."
The visiting manager greeted them, and a middle-aged man in his forties put down what he was doing and walked over to Lin Yi and the other two.
The middle-aged man's name is Wang Jincai, and he is the chef of this restaurant.
"What's the matter?"
"This little brother was brought by a member of our store. He wants to borrow the kitchen to cook a few dishes. Let me say hello to you."
"Cooking? This is not a place to practice cooking."
If an ordinary person made such a request, Wang Jincai would directly scold him back.
But if the other party is a member of the store, it's different.
There are only a few people in Yanjing. If you have a membership card in the store, you definitely can't afford to offend him.
But the kitchen has been controlled by myself for a long time. Now that someone wants to cook, the rules are broken, so I can only refuse in disguise.
"I'm really not here to practice my skills. I heard from the customer that this guy's skills are pretty good, so I wanted him to show off his skills, so I brought him here."
"Even if the level is good, it's still home-cooked. It shouldn't be comparable to us. Why don't you go back and talk about it? I'll do the cooking. I'll definitely work hard and make sure they're satisfied."
The chef profession has its own rules and a strong sense of territoriality.
If they are not allowed by the chef, they are not willing to let others in.
"I really can't help it. The customers have already made such a request. Do I dare to refuse?" the manager said with a wry smile.
He also understood what Wang Jincai meant, but when things got here, there was nothing anyone could do.
Wang Jincai frowned and glanced at Lin Yi again.
"Okay, let him do it here."
"Then I'll leave it to you."
"OK."
After explaining the business, the manager turned and left.
Wang Jincai looked at Lin Yi and said:
"What kind of food do you want to cook? I'll ask someone to prepare the ingredients for you."
“Kung Pao Chicken, Blanched Chicken, and Baked Lobster in Soup.”
It has to be said that Shen Shuyi still pays great attention to health preservation. Although they are all meat dishes, they have very little fat content, which is suitable for eating when losing weight.
"Go over and prepare the materials." Wang Jincai said to the apprentice below.
But the mood was not very high, and he looked like he was waiting for a good show.
The people below were very quick with their hands and feet, and had all the required ingredients ready in just a few minutes.
Lin Yi rolled up his sleeves, started cooking, heated up the oil, and then sauteed the onions, garlic and dried chilies until fragrant.
"Wait a minute, how do you make this dish? Kung Pao chicken requires oil, don't you know?"
"That's the latest and most primitive way of making it without using any oil."
"What's the matter, do you still want something authentic?"
"This is the old flavor of Yanjing City. You guys open a restaurant in Yanjing and you don't even understand this?"
"No one has found fault with the Kung Pao Chicken I made so far," Wang Jincai said confidently.
The apprentices behind him were also laughing while cooking, as if they were mocking Lin Yi's ignorance.
The chef has won the bronze medal in the King of Kitchen Competition, why do you need guidance from a young man like him?
"That's because you haven't seen picky eaters."
At the same time, the onions, garlic and dried chili peppers in the pot had been sautéed until fragrant. Lin Yi put the chopped chicken breasts into the pot, and then everyone stir-fried. They also added diced cucumbers, carrots and peanuts and continued to stir-fry.
His skillful cooking techniques surprised everyone in the kitchen.
This is not like a newbie, his technique is quite proficient.
About half a minute passed, and Lin Yi started to adjust the soup. Finally, everything was cooked into the pot, and then the soup was reduced over high heat.
And at the end, I added a little bit of vinegar, and the dish was done.
Everyone in the kitchen looked at each other in amazement when they saw the Kung Pao Chicken prepared by Lin Yi.
Let’s not talk about how it tastes. Just looking at the appearance makes people very appetizing.
"Stop looking, you can take some chopsticks and try it." Lin Yi said to Wang Jincai.
"Then I won't be polite."
Wang Jincai took a bite with his chopsticks and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Sour, sweet, spicy and salty, the taste is well-defined, the muscles are firm but not burnt, and the heat is just right. It tastes really good."
"How does it compare to your cooking?"
"It is indeed more delicious than what I made. It is indeed the old taste of Yanjing." Wang Jincai looked at Lin Yi and said with an embarrassed smile:
"Young man, where did you learn this craft? I have been doing it for more than 20 years, and my level is not as good as yours."
"They are all self-taught. I can't say how high my level is. I just have some talent."
"If you are self-taught and can cook like this, then your level is very good."
Wang Jincai said with a smile: "Come on, come on, there are two other dishes. You can show them to us again and let me learn from them."
"Little things."
…
Lin Yi was cooking in the kitchen, and two women, Shen Shuyi and Qin Yingyue, started chatting in the box.
"You are serious, just ask him to make one. Why did you order three?" Qin Yingyue said.
"Aren't these your favorite dishes? It's just a good time for him to show off his skills."
"The main reason is that I have been selling fruit all afternoon, and I am exhausted."
"Thankfully you haven't been with him for so many years, otherwise he would have been spoiled by you." Shen Shuyi said:
"What's so tiring about cooking three dishes? Besides, he's your son. It's natural for him to cook a meal for his mother. He has to bear the tiredness."
