Chapter 456 Who is this person?
"8:30 in the morning is fine. I'll prepare whatever breakfast you want."
Yang Lin was silent for a moment, and finally compromised.
Although he was somewhat reluctant, Hu Yuan was the boss after all, so he chose to obey the arrangements.
"Just come according to your schedule tomorrow. I just need to use the kitchen and have someone cook a meal." Hu Yuan said lightly.
"You want to use my kitchen and have someone cook for you?"
Yang Lin's voice suddenly changed.
His own kitchen is like his territory, and he does not allow others to easily interfere, which makes him very resistant.
Before Hu Yuan could even open his mouth to respond, Yang Lin's voice, which had become noticeably stiff and defiant, came from the other end of the line: "Brother Hu, I can make whatever you want to eat. There's no need to ask anyone else for help!"
In Yang Lin's opinion, as the head chef of Wutong Restaurant, he is fully capable of meeting any of Hu Yuan's dining needs. He really doesn't understand why Hu Yuan insists on finding an outsider to cook in his kitchen.
Now Hu Yuan's arrangement made him feel that his ability was being questioned.
He paused and added, "Don't you believe in my craftsmanship?"
Hu Yuan did not show any anger on his face when he heard this answer which was filled with obvious resistance.
He picked up the purple clay cup on the desk, took a sip of tea, and then spoke slowly: "Xiao Yang, don't think too much."
"As for using your restaurant, it's mainly because the conditions are suitable. It's close to the city, with convenient transportation, so it's convenient for everyone to travel."
“The kitchen is fully equipped with all kinds of cooking tools.”
Yang Lin did not answer the phone, and only a slight breathing sound could be heard from the receiver.
Hu Yuan knew that this arrogant chef was trying hard to suppress his emotions at this moment.
After a brief pause, he continued, "Secondly, the chef we'll be inviting tomorrow will be making Chinese food, Chinese-style stir-fries. It's different from the French cuisine you're good at."
"Brother Hu, you don't know."
Yang Lin's tone softened a bit, and although he still had a hint of stubbornness in his voice, he was obviously not as tough as before.
"I've actually been researching innovative recipes that combine Chinese and French cuisine."
"I'm quite experienced with Chinese cuisine. I've tried to combine Cantonese techniques, Sichuan flavors, and French sauces."
Hu Yuan interrupted at the right moment, his voice tinged with laughter: "That's a good feeling."
"Then you can learn more from Master Su tomorrow. Maybe you can complete your own innovative recipe sooner."
The other end of the phone fell silent. After about two seconds, Yang Lin's voice sounded again, this time much calmer: "Since Brother Hu said so, then I have no objection."
Although he tried to make his tone sound calm, Hu Yuan could still hear a hint of reluctance in his words.
After all, it is always uncomfortable for a proud chef to watch others show off their skills on his own turf.
Yang Lin then asked, "Which Chinese chef is this?"
"You'll find out tomorrow."
Hu Yuan deliberately kept the topic a secret, but then his expression turned serious. He said solemnly, "I can only say that Chef Su's cooking skills are the best and most impeccable I've ever seen in my long career in the catering industry."
He recalled the delicious food made by Su Chen that he had eaten; the color, aroma and taste were all unforgettable.
He couldn't help but emphasize his tone: "Many people have offered high prices but failed to impress Master Su."
“Is it that powerful?!”
Yang Lin's voice suddenly rose eight octaves, and his inner shock could be clearly heard through the phone.
Who on earth is this Chinese chef and how could he receive such high praise?
Yang Lin has indeed been studying the fusion and innovation of Chinese and French cuisine recently, and is very familiar with several leading Chinese cuisine chefs in China.
He quickly screened through his mind the candidates who might meet the requirements: a master of state banquet level? Or an inheritor of intangible cultural heritage?
Anyone who is so highly praised by Hu Yuan must be a veteran Chinese chef, or even an internationally renowned figure.
Thinking of this, Yang Lin's attitude immediately changed significantly.
These veteran predecessors usually rarely cook themselves. Most of them work as consultants for major catering groups and have countless disciples.
If you really have the opportunity to observe the cooking process of such a senior up close, it will definitely be a valuable learning opportunity that cannot be bought with money.
"In that case."
Yang Lin took a deep breath and his voice became serious. "I will definitely clean up the restaurant and wait for Master Lin to come and give me guidance with the most sincere attitude."
At this moment, his heart was full of anticipation and respect for the unknown master, and his previous resistance had long since disappeared without a trace.
"Well, as long as you have the heart."
Hu Yuan was very satisfied with Yang Lin's change of attitude. He nodded slightly and said, "A batch of food will be delivered to Wutong tomorrow morning. Please help with it first."
"No problem!"
Yang Lin agreed very readily this time, and there was even a hint of impatience in his voice.
He has already begun to imagine in his mind what kind of highly respected and skilled master chef he will meet tomorrow. Maybe he can even get some valuable guidance from the other party, which will undoubtedly be a huge help to improve his cooking skills.
Thinking of this, he secretly made up his mind to seize this rare opportunity.
After hanging up the phone, Hu Yuan couldn't help but smile and shook his head.
The assistant standing nearby also had an expression of anticipation on his face and jokingly said, "If Chef Yang knew that Chef Su was several years younger than him, he would definitely not have such an attitude."
The assistant had followed Hu Yuan for a long time and knew Yang Lin's arrogance and the true situation of Boss Su.
"So I didn't say it."
Hu Yuan had a happy expression on his face. He knew people like Yang Lin too well.
"People like Xiao Yang do have real talent, but because of that, they tend to be stubborn. It's hard to convince them unless they actually see Boss Su's cooking skills."
As he said this, Hu Yuan couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The assistant half-jokingly said, "Aren't you afraid of giving Chef Yang a crushing blow?"
Hu Yuan stood up and said seriously, "If this is a complete failure, then I can only say that I was wrong."
If Yang Lin doesn't even have this ability to withstand pressure, then he is not worthy of his attention.
After Hu Yuan properly arranged the venue for Wutong Restaurant, he immediately picked up his phone and sent a detailed message to Hong Yucheng.
"Mr. Hong, I've already found a venue. The kitchen at Wutong Restaurant will be ready at 8:00 tomorrow morning. The address is xxx, xx Road. Also, I've already contacted Chef Yang of the restaurant. Don't worry, there won't be any problems."
