Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Jessica tasted the tender cabbage, drank the delicious soup, and said sincerely, "Well, Elena, I have changed my mind. I agree with you now. My previous prejudice against Chinese food originated solely from My own ignorance. "

"This dish completely changed my view of Chinese food."

Elena also nodded slightly: "This dish also surprised me. I know that this dish may be found in many Chinese restaurants, but I am afraid that there are very few that can do it so well."

感谢 "Thank you Lucas, your explanations have added a lot to this cuisine, and my understanding of cuisine has also inspired me."

Jianuo smiled slightly: "In fact, I don't have a deep understanding of food. I just complete my work according to the manager's requirements and present the details of each dish to the customers."

Obviously, this is the significance of Lin Canrong's arrangement.

Except for a few gourmets who are extremely sensitive to taste, most ordinary people can hardly judge how much effort the chef has to achieve to reach this taste based on just the taste.

Most people have very scarce vocabulary for food, which is nothing but delicious, tender and so on.

At this time, explaining the details of each dish to customers is not only scientific knowledge, but also creating an environment and atmosphere for customers, and establishing a "compassion."

的 The cuisine of high-end restaurants is to improve the taste at all costs. If the details cannot be explained clearly, customers will not be impressed.

Obviously, Lin Canrong's careful preparation fully exerted its due effect at this moment.

Elena said: "Lucas, I want to talk to you about Chinese and Western food, can you?"

Jianuo considered it: "I'm afraid I don't have enough knowledge to answer this question. However, I can ask the manager to come over."

Elena: "Thanks if you don't disturb the manager's work!"

Jianuo left the private room, and after a while, returned with Lin Canrong.

Chen Linrong asked with a smile: "My surname is Lin, the manager of our restaurant. Are you satisfied with our meals and services?"

Although Lin Linrong is also learning English, after all, she is older and usually busy with work, so she has not been able to communicate with foreigners without any obstacles.

Therefore, it was only translated by Jano.

Fortunately, Jia Nuo had already done the simultaneous interpretation work. A guest translation at this level was a piece of cake.

Elena nodded: "I'm very satisfied! This is the most wonderful meal I've ever had. Whether it's Western or Chinese food, your grasp of excellence in details has impressed me."

"I am a food lover, I have had some confusion for a long time. I want to discuss with Manager Lin a little, I don't know if the manager can solve my confusion?"

Chen Linrong said modestly: "Don't dare to be confused, and would like to talk about my views."

Elena asked: "The food is now becoming more and more seasoned. Many foods can no longer taste the food itself. I don't know what Manager Lin thinks about it?"

Chen Linrong considered for a moment and replied, "This is indeed a trend in the development of world cuisine."

"I think there are two main reasons for this."

"First of all, competition is the reason. The food industry is very cruel. Even the best restaurants in the world must continue to develop new dishes, even provide a lot of fun things in the restaurant, work **** the environment, or else Seen as aggressive. After all, diners' attention can easily be drawn to other restaurants. "

"Second is due to the needs of diners. Under the deception and temptation of many catering brands, diners have too many choices, too strong contrasts, and too many stimuli, resulting in many diners losing their ability to appreciate some tastes, and the threshold of taste is constantly being Pull up. "

"When the entire catering industry is stimulating diners' taste buds with heavier flavors, it naturally forms a cycle. For diners, they do eat 'more delicious' things, but ... I think it doesn't Not in line with Chinese food philosophy. "

"Chinese food is particular about the taste, it must be light, one dish, one hundred dishes, one flavor makes it out, the tasteless makes it in, the food is indeterminate, and the taste is delicious ..."

"In simple terms, it means that each ingredient has its own unique taste. The combination of ingredients must take into account the fusion of different flavors, rather than forcibly change them by seasoning. Even the same meal, its taste should not always be It stays the same, but rather tailors the meal to his tastes according to the special needs of the diners. "

"So, our restaurant has been working hard to find the balance between the two. It is necessary to maintain the original taste of the ingredients, not to abuse the flavors and additives, to make the food nutritious and healthy, and at the same time to continuously improve the taste under this premise . "

"Like the boiled cabbage that two people ate today. There is a saying called 'Hundred dishes or cabbage flavor'. Although it is a very common ingredient, as long as it is cooked with heart, it can also completely go beyond those rare ingredients. "

Jianuo translated the meaning of Lin Canrong completely and accurately, which caused two guests to nod frequently.

Jessica listened with interest.

If it was before today, she would definitely scoff at these theories and could not hear it. I think this is a sophistry that the taste of Chinese food is not as good as that of modern Western food.

But after eating today's dishes, she can understand these philosophical concepts.

Because the "boiling water cabbage" dish is exactly in line with what Mr. Lin said, "the taste must be light", without adding any modern seasonings, it looks like clear soup and little water, but it contains the ultimate deliciousness in the light.

Elena nodded: "The manager Lin's words are very philosophical and very helpful to me, thank you! So how did manager Lin see the difference between Chinese and Western food? Are they good or bad?"

Lin Linrong smiled slightly: "Food is inherently very subjective, everyone has different tastes, and I don't think it is necessary to forcefully distinguish between high and low."

"Every kind of food is rooted in its cultural heritage. At present, although Western food is more accepted worldwide, this is mainly because the cultural heritage of Western food is more widely accepted."

"Many people have a taste for Chinese food, just judging whether it is delicious based on whether the taste is strong. This is obviously putting Chinese food in a wrong system to evaluate, and naturally it is impossible to draw correct conclusions."

"The deliciousness of Chinese food needs to be understood in a specific cultural context. It is not only an appetite, but also an expression of thought and philosophy."

"It's like a very common dish, Dongpo meat. If you don't know its historical background, then it's just an ordinary braised pork, but if you know the story of Su Dongpo, you know the background of the dish he invented, and even see The spring scenery of West Lake's ten scenery ... So the meaning of this dish is completely different. "

"If you have read Su Dongpo's poems, if you have read Su Shi's calligraphy, you will eat Dongpo meat; otherwise, it will be just a piece of ordinary braised pork."

"A lot of Westerners don't understand this, and they are accustomed to using Western standards to evaluate Chinese food. Of course, they will conclude that it is inferior to Western food, but this is obviously unfair."

"Back to your original question."

"I do n’t think modern western food is wrong in pursuing the ultimate taste by precisely controlling the amount of consumption. I also do n’t think Chinese food culture is wrong. Our restaurant does not exclude any style, but strives to understand every style. A meal while providing diners with their favorite and most suitable flavor. "

贾 Under Jano's translation, this long series of speeches by Lin Canrong was translated by Xindaya, concisely and competently, and not every word was translated just right.

Elena nodded frequently.

Finally, she said convincingly: "That's it! Manager Lim's understanding of catering is really deep, it's amazing!"

Jessica also said with emotion: "I will never be biased against Chinese food in the future. The original Chinese food was not good just because the Chinese food was not good enough."

Lin Linrong smiled: "Where, in the profound and profound food culture, I am just a student who is struggling."

Elena said: "Director Lin, in fact, I am a food blogger, can I write today's experience on my food blog? Your unique insights into the catering industry have provided me with a brand new Perspective. "

Chan Lin Chanrong smiled and nodded: "Of course."

Uh ...

I sent away two foreign friends, and Jia Nuo wiped the sweat on his forehead.

"Shop manager, these two don't look like ordinary people. Fortunately, you usually let me know these contents, otherwise you might be timid."

不过 "However, your last opinion on Chinese and Western restaurant culture is really very good. I can see that these two international friends have been conquered."

Chen Linrong was silent for a moment and said, "Actually, this is also my occasional enlightenment recently ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ It just happened to be used."

Jia Nuo said: "Sometimes I'm aware of this? The manager, you're too occasionally aware, is it too timely?"

Chen Linrong's expression was serious: "It may seem like a coincidence, but in fact ... it is also a necessity."

"I went to Mr. Pei before and wanted to open a branch, but Mr. Pei rejected it. So I have been thinking, for Mr. Pei, what is Mingyun's personal kitchen?"

后来 "I later understood that Mingyun Private Kitchen should be a unique restaurant. It is not about quantity, but quality, that is to provide the ultimate experience for diners."

"This extreme experience is inherently irreproducible. Therefore, President Pei emphasized that Mingyun Private Kitchen cannot open a branch, but also urgently needs to spend money to improve the details."

"I strive to find the shortcomings and strive to make everything perfect. Our restaurant does not treat foreign friends and talents equally, but treats all diners equally and provides the perfect dining experience."

"Today, although we only received two diners who were slightly picky in taste, the significance was significant because we withstood the test. We only regarded every day as the first day of opening and every diner as the first. A diner who values ​​the feedback of every diner, we can do our best. "

"Including reflections on the differences between Chinese and Western food, and reflections on the development of the modern catering industry, are also the feelings I got during the process of repeatedly pondering the deep meaning of Pei."

"I think that only by working hard to achieve this level can we meet President Pei's expectations for Mingyun personal chef!"
