Chapter 239 Xujiapu Restaurant
"The restaurant has not officially opened yet, and I don't know how the business is going, so I can only do it on a small scale first. When the business gets better later, I will organize it bit by bit."
"That's it . It's already very good."
The decoration style of Xu's shop is somewhat similar to that of Quanfu Building. In other words, most restaurants in Beijing today have this kind of decoration.
But compared to the decades of operation of Quanfulou, Xujia Shop is like a toddler learning to walk.
However, there will always be a day when you can grow up.
After a while, the three chefs and the fourth waiter also came over.
Xu Wanning glanced at it roughly.
Yes, everyone took a shower, washed their hair, and cut their nails.
The four little girls also tied up their braids, looking much leaner.
Xu Wanning gave Chef Zhang the list she had written at home, and also handed over several large unity sheets, a small notebook and a pen.
"Chef Zhang will go shopping today. Every time he buys something according to the list, he will record the price in this book. Is it okay, Chef Zhang?"
"No problem, no problem. I happen to be familiar with some vegetable vendors in the Chengdong Market. , maybe you can also buy the freshest vegetables at the best price. But Boss Xu, there is a small problem now. " " There are a lot of dishes on this list, and I
can't do
it alone. I can't bring it back. This..."
"Don't worry about this. There is a small cart parked outside. You can ride there."
Xu Wanning thought of this problem yesterday and told Lin An her thoughts. Later, Lin An and Dongzi worked together to modify Dongzi's car that was sold at the stall.
The car is not big, but it is enough for a day's hauling.
Xu Wanning arranged work for each of the four waiters, and then sat down to chat with Xu's mother and others.
"Our Aning looks more and more like a boss."
"Sorry, sorry, we're late."
As he was talking, a few more people came in from outside.
Xu Wanning looked at the door and saw her sister-in-law's entire family arriving.
Including Chen's father, Chen's mother, and several of Chen Ye's brothers and sisters-in-law.
"A Ning, it's true that you didn't even inform us of such an important matter. If your sister-in-law hadn't mentioned it, we wouldn't have known about it!"
Mother Chen complained, and then gave the thing in her hand to Xu Wanning.
"I wish you good luck with your business. Auntie has prepared a gift for you. I hope you like it."
"I like it, Auntie. Thank you. Thank you also to my brothers and sisters-in-law."
Chen Ye's second brother smiled and said, "It's enough to thank you verbally ." No! I have heard from my parents that An Ning’s cooking is delicious, but I have never had the chance to try it myself. I wonder if An Ning can reward me by cooking a meal for us? "Why
don’t you wait? When Xu Wanning opened her mouth, Chen's mother pinched her unlucky son.
"A Ning is the boss, how can there be any reason for the boss to cook for you personally? Besides, the business has just started today, and A Ning is so busy that he can't take care of you."
"It's okay, aunt, I originally planned to do it today. I'm going to cook for everyone myself. But I still have some trivial things to settle here. You guys should do it first. I'll make a big table of delicious food for lunch."
Originally, Xu Wanning didn't plan to officially open the business today, after all. Many things were not handled well.
For example, business licenses.
But things happened quickly. Not only the Xu family came, but also the Chen family. Xu Wanning felt like she was chasing a duck.
Chen Ye stepped forward to help.
"I'm sorry, Aning. I just said something to my parents casually. I didn't expect them to bring so many people here. My second brother is like that. He often makes trouble out of his mouth, but he doesn't have any ill intentions. Can you? Don't be angry."
"How could it be? My uncle and aunt came to cheer me up today. It's too late for me to be happy. How can I be angry?"
"That's fine."
Xu Wanning is really too busy. , so after saying a few words to Chen Ye, he went to the kitchen.
Chef Mao and Chef Yang have already written down all their specialties, and Xu Wanning is formulating the menu for Xu's shop.
There are more hard dishes, plus some stir-fry dishes. The price is not too cheap, but the quantity is definitely not small.
Xu Wanning looked at the prepared menu and felt that something was missing.
"The dishes currently on the menu can be made in other hotels and restaurants, and they are not the characteristics of our Xujia shop."
Lin An's voice came from behind.
"Are you back?"
"Well, the plaque has been returned. Dongzi and Brother are helping to put it on. Do you want to go out and take a look?"
"Okay, let's go take a look first." As for the menu, Don't worry, we'll finalize the menu after Chef Zhang comes back.
"Oh, I told you to go a little further to the right. You are too far to the left and it doesn't look good."
"Maoyan, go a little further to the right. The left and right sides are asymmetrical."
Under the command of the "mass", Finally the plaque was hung.
The background color of the plaque is the original color of boxwood, and the six characters "Xujiapuzi Restaurant" are written on it in gold font.
There are also carvings all around, which are particularly exquisite.
But compared to the plaque in later generations that was designed by someone special, it is still a bit crude.
But Xu Wanning felt that this piece looked better.
She prefers it.
When her restaurant opened, there were quite a few people who came to congratulate her, but most of them were old friends and acquaintances of the master and other grandpas, and they came to support her just for their sake.
There are really not many people who can be truly happy for her.
But this time it's different.
She has Lin An who helps her take care of everything, her family members who sincerely support her, and her trustworthy friends.
This is just a restaurant.
But it's not just a restaurant.
It carries Xu Wanning's ambition for the future and nostalgia for the past.
The second brother even made a big red flower tied with red silk and satin, and hung it on the plaque with the fourth brother.
"Red satin is so difficult to make, and I feel so happy."
"But I always feel like there is something missing."
"Come on, come on, the firecrackers are coming!"
Xu Maoning and three Xu Maoyings rode a The 28-bar bicycle came staggering over, and Xu Maoning's shouting could be heard from far away.
When he was approaching his destination, Xu Maoning jumped off the back seat of his bicycle and threw the firecrackers he had been holding in his arms on the ground.
"I really spent a lot of effort to get these firecrackers. Sister, you must let me have some firecrackers later. This is my brother's deep love and blessing for you."
"Okay, this is glorious and glorious. The arduous task will be left to you."
Xu Maoning doesn't smoke, so he couldn't find a handy ignition tool for a while.
In the end, Chef Yang took out a small box of matches from the kitchen.
