Chapter 236 Applicants for chef
Xu Wanning and Lin An went to the department store. After ordering a batch of bowls and chopsticks, they also bought some other things for the restaurant.
They waited until lunch time before they rushed back to the restaurant.
Dongzi has come back, bringing with him three chefs and five waiters.
At this time, eight people stood in two teams and were listening to Dongzi's lecture.
"...As for whether you can stay, you still have to pass the assessment of the big boss. But don't worry, once you can stay, our salary will be very generous and the benefits will be very good..."
Xu Wanning looked at Dongzi's face It really looks like that.
Unknowingly, she stood in the line of chefs.
The chef who was originally standing at the very back couldn't help but look back when he felt there was someone behind him.
He frowned and reminded: "Little comrade, the waiter is on the right. This is the chef's team. You are standing in the wrong position."
Xu Wanning wanted to explain, but when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them alive.
She raised her lips and smiled, "What a coincidence or not, I'm here to apply for a job as a chef."
The chef who was talking to her continued to frown and let out a burst of laughter from his nose.
"Since ancient times, I have never heard of a woman being a chef. Take a look at the state-owned hotels and restaurants operating outside. Which one has a female chef? I think you are not very young, so you should go and apply for the job. "Waiter!"
"Look at your thin arms and legs, can you handle the cooking?"
The few chefs who applied for the job made Xu Wanning look down to nothing.
Indeed, most of the people who have been able to work in the kitchen are male chefs, because the workload of serving meals in restaurants is usually heavy and women have low physical strength, so they may not be able to do it.
Even in later generations, there are basically more male chefs than female chefs.
But what Xu Wanning hated most in her life was using gender to judge people's abilities.
She snorted coldly and raised her right hand high.
"Manager Su, when applying for a job as a chef, you can't just say a few words. Can't you let everyone cook a few of their own special dishes and let everyone taste them together? Only if the taste is good, this person Only then can you stay! If you don't taste good, it's useless no matter how much you say."
Dongzi, whose real name is Su Dong, heard Xu Wanning's words and just wanted to wipe the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief.
My sister-in-law is here to join in the fun. The restaurant hasn't officially opened yet, so we have to consume a lot of ingredients first.
But what my sister-in-law said makes sense. No matter how fancy your talk is, if your cooking skills are not up to par and the food you make is not delicious, then we cannot use you.
"We happen to have ready-made ingredients here. Let's go to the kitchen together with the four applicants, and each of them cook two of his own specialties." "
No problem, I'll make boiled pork slices and Dongpo pork. "
Then I'll make braised pork and sauced pig's trotters."
"I'm good at cooking fish, so I'll make boiled fish and pickled fish."
After saying that, the three male chefs looked at Xu Wanning.
Xu Wanning touched the tip of her nose and said, "Then I'll make Dongpo pork, sauced pig's trotters and boiled fish."
She actually chose one dish from each of the three Chu's.
Xu Wanning's choice earned the unanimous ridicule of the three chefs.
Are you a young man or a young woman with long hair and short knowledge? Do you really think that you can apply for a job as a chef just because you can cook a few dishes at home?
If she can apply for the job, their names will be written backwards!
But soon, these chefs stopped laughing.
Because they hadn't finished preparing one dish yet, Xu Wanning quickly finished the preparations for all three dishes.
Look at her action of slicing the fish, she is extremely professional.
"Why don't you hurry up and cook it? Don't wait until I've finished cooking all three dishes. If you haven't finished cooking one dish, that would be embarrassing!"
"How can I be surpassed by a little girl?"
"It's so fast. What's the use? The most important thing is that it tastes good!"
Xu Wanning didn't even bother to roll her eyes at them when they heard that these three people were busy making fun of themselves.
As a state banquet chef, she competed with them in cooking, which was completely a dimensionality reduction attack.
Half an hour later, Xu Wanning's three dishes were all ready.
She even fried a plate of shredded potatoes.
The potato shreds were cut into even thicknesses, and you could tell by your knife skills.
Of the three chefs, only one cooked both of his dishes.
It was the person who started talking to Xu Wanning.
After more than ten minutes, the other two dishes were also freshly baked.
Xu Wanning winked at Dongzi, and Dongzi quickly understood.
He looked at the five waiters who were still sitting there motionless, patted the table, and said in a slightly impatient tone: "Why are you still standing there? Go and serve the food!"
"You don't have any eyesight at all. If there are really diners, If you come to take care of our business, do you still have to let people serve the dishes themselves? "
These dishes are all big dishes, and the dishes are all heavy and hot.
Two of the smarter ones found dishcloths in the kitchen and put them on both ends of the plate, then took it out easily.
The other two carried them directly. Although their faces were grimacing in pain, they luckily brought all the plates to the table smoothly.
Only one person exclaimed as soon as his hand touched the plate, retracted his hand, put it to his mouth and blew.
"It's so hot. Is there anything that's not hot that I can bring?"
"All the plates have been brought out, and now only this one is left."
"Then can I wait a little longer? Wait until it cools down before I bring it to you?" "It's really too hot. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold it steady and drop the plate."
"Of course. When you become a waiter, just tell the customer, wait, I'll wait for your food. " Let it cool before serving it to you, otherwise it will burn my hands."
Xu Wanning said back.
The young girl looked at her angrily: "Who are you? You didn't even say anything to the boss. Do you need to show off?"
She gave Xu Wanning a hard look, turned her head, and looked at Dongzi pitifully.
"Brother Dong, in addition to serving dishes, there should be other jobs, right? For example, accounting and collecting money. I have studied for several years, and I am very good at math."
Dongzi felt that there were several glances. It seems that nothing has fallen on him.
Cuifen and his sister-in-law both looked at him with half-smiling eyes.
Dongzi immediately jumped three feet high.
"Who are you? You can't even pass the test as a waiter, but you want to be a cashier? Why don't you say you want to be the boss!"
The girl pinched the hem of her clothes with her hands and smiled shyly.
"I can't be the boss, but if Brother Dong is willing, I can be the wife of the boss."
Among the waiters who applied for the job, she was the prettiest, and she didn't believe that Brother Dong was not interested in her.
