Chapter 89 Random Dishes
After the merchants had eaten and drunk their fill, Ma Mazi found Ji Zhisui and asked, "Young lady, how are the sausages being prepared?"
They are leaving the day after tomorrow, and he is very anxious, fearing that the time is too tight and the sausages won't be ready in time.
"Don't worry, everything can be done today and you can come and pick it up tomorrow." Ji Zhisui promised.
We can finish making the sausages today. Fortunately, there are more people working in the restaurant now, and Grandma Zhao and the others are very skillful.
"That's good, that's good." Now that the matter they were most concerned about had been settled, Ma Mazi and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In the afternoon, many customers came to the restaurant and asked why there was no braised food today.
The braised food launched yesterday was very popular. It was fragrant and delicious, and it was unforgettable. Because the raw material was pig offal, it also attracted some curious diners. They all wanted to know what the braised food tasted like. Baiwei Restaurant has become famous among diners in Qizhou County again.
Unfortunately, the kitchen is busy making sausages today and there is no time to prepare braised food.
Upon hearing the news, many diners were dejected, and the customers who came to see the novelty were also disappointed.
Ji Zhisui couldn't bear to see his diners showing such expressions. Although there was no braised food today, there was clay pot rice!
Judging from the reactions of the Pei family and other diners, clay pot rice will definitely be popular in the market.
What's more, this clay pot rice is a Cantonese dish, which perfectly suits the taste of Qizhou people.
Perhaps, she could learn a business model from later generations and randomly launch a dish every few days, so as to retain customers while maintaining freshness. Anyway, her mind is filled with delicacies from various cuisines.
Although the Baiwei Restaurant can now earn a stable income of one or two taels of silver every day, which seems very good to outsiders, this is far from Ji Zhisui's goal.
Her most basic purpose in opening this restaurant was to support her family, but her ambitions went far beyond that.
One tael a day, only thirty taels a month, and a maximum of one hundred taels a year. With this money alone, it would take her a long time to realize her wish of getting rich.
What she wants to do is to promote Baiwei Restaurant. Not only do people in Qizhou think of Baiwei Restaurant when they mention eating, she also wants outsiders to think of Baiwei Restaurant when they mention Qizhou County.
Her customers are far more than just people from Qizhou. If you want to achieve this effect, current restaurants will definitely not be able to meet this requirement.
Although there are some rare dishes on the menu, it is still too monotonous. After a long time, people may no longer feel fresh about the restaurant.
So she wanted to create a restaurant with unique characteristics that could always bring freshness to customers.
Ji Zhisui came to the counter and said, "Dear guests, the braised food was a random dish yesterday. Today, our restaurant's dish is clay pot rice, which tastes just as good as the braised food. Anyone interested can try it!"
"Young lady, what do you mean by random dishes? Are you guys not going to sell braised food in your restaurant anymore?"
"Yeah, I didn't even have enough yesterday. Why don't you guys do it anymore?"
"Random dishes are what our restaurant serves. We have an irregular dish every day. It could be braised food or something else. What you can eat depends entirely on what ingredients our restaurant has today." Ji Zhisui patiently explained to everyone.
After hearing this, everyone began to whisper.
No one had ever experienced this kind of business method, and they were all very curious. Someone asked Duoh: "Miss, when will the braised food be available?"
"I'm not sure about that either. Today's clay pot rice is also delicious. You can try it."
Pei Yian looked at the person who was talking in front of him. Although he was not tall, he seemed to be glowing and became the focus of the crowd.
The more he got along with Sui Niang, the more attracted he became and he couldn't help but get closer to her.
This was the first time Pei Yian had heard of such a method. He had to say that the business method Sui Niang mentioned was really great.
Random dishes are mysterious and uncertain, and it is precisely this characteristic that not only attracts diners for a long time, but also makes them feel fresh about the restaurant every day.
This allows Baiwei Restaurant to immediately differentiate itself from other restaurants, and even imitating them becomes very difficult.
After listening to Ji Zhisui's explanation, some people who originally wanted to try braised food also became interested in the food called clay pot rice.
Many people ordered clay pot rice, but some were still hesitant. After all, they had never heard of this food, didn't know what it tasted like, and were not very brave to try it.
However, when the clay pot rice was served and people were eating it happily, some people couldn't help but order one too.
When Li Laoqi heard that this restaurant could make pig offal into a delicacy, he was very disdainful and even thought that this restaurant was just putting on a show. He had never heard of anyone being able to make pig offal into a delicacy.
He hated being deceived the most, especially when it came to food. If it wasn't tasty, it wasn't tasty. How could this restaurant lie?
Today he was planning to come here to test the truth. If it was fake, he would definitely reveal the true identity of the restaurant in front of everyone.
Who knew that the dishes were not fixed every day?
He thought that if this was true, then the braised food made from pig offal was just a gimmick. This restaurant didn't just make good food, but also resorted to these messy methods.
Li Laoqi ordered a clay pot rice and wanted to find fault with it, but when the clay pot rice appeared in front of him, he stopped wanting to criticize it.
He couldn't find any fault with this clay pot rice in terms of appearance and aroma, and was even dazzled by the fragrance!
The clay pot rice at Baiwei Restaurant is so delicious, what does the braised food taste like?
He was very curious and felt sorry. Why didn't he come to try the braised food yesterday?
I wonder what random dishes they will have tomorrow?
No, he must come to this Baiwei Restaurant whenever he has time.
He really couldn't say enough about such a delicious dish.
He even waved to the shopkeeper and wanted to order another bowl, but was told that each table was limited to one portion of clay pot rice and today's portion had been sold out.
He felt a little sorry and could only concentrate on eating the clay pot rice.
"Seventh Brother! We are friends, right?" Li Laoqi looked up when he heard the voice and saw Zhang Laosan, who he was not very familiar with. He nodded. A friend of a friend is also a friend.
Zhang Laosan was not polite and sat down directly. "Seventh Brother, does this clay pot rice taste good?"
"Of course!"
"Then can you give me some?" Zhang Laosan looked at the person expectantly. He was a loyal customer of Baiwei Restaurant. He was just a little late today, and the random dish clay pot rice was sold out.
