Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"Okay, then this week, I'll appoint you to be the head chef of Yuanyue Hotel, a subsidiary of Yuanyue Resort, to temporarily take over the post of head chef of Kojima who is on leave..." Dojima Gin said halfway, the office phone rang .

"Okay, you can ask Chef Li Yuan about the specific duties, and you will start working at four o'clock in the afternoon." Dojima Silver said and answered the phone first.

The other three chefs and Liu Maoxing also left the office first upon seeing this.

"Chef Li, what exactly is the job of Chef Kojima that Mr. Dojima mentioned?" Liu Maoxing asked curiously.

"Chef Kojima is usually in charge of ordering meals in rooms 1201 to 1220, that is, the guests in these 20 rooms. If the guests order food into the room, Chef Kojima's team will be in charge..." Li Yuan obviously There is a feeling of unfinished business.

"Twenty rooms? I can't be alone?" Liu Maoxing asked.

In case the people in these twenty rooms ordered meals together, he would be exhausted and couldn't finish it!

"Of course not. Chef Kojima also has a first-class chef, second-class, third-class chefs, and kitchen workers, a total of ten people, and the occupancy rate of the twenty rooms should be stable at 60 to 70%... In fact, chef Kojima asked for leave two days ago, and the first-class chef acted as an agent for his supervisor to order food for twenty rooms, and there was nothing wrong with it." Li Yuan said.

"Still idle?" Liu Maoxing's eyes lit up, and he decided to go to dinner first!

Anyway, it's still early at four o'clock in the afternoon...

"But mainly for these three months, it's Chef Kojima's turn to be the judge of the month-end professional title review..." Li Yuan said solemnly.

"Professional title evaluation at the end of the month?" Liu Maoxing felt the breath of "conspiracy".

"That's right, at the end of each month, the head chef can declare that his official chefs will be promoted to the second class, or the second class will be promoted to the first class. As for the prospective chefs, chefs or official chefs, they will be promoted to the head chef at the end of the year. Mr. Dojima is in charge of the review, and the promotion at the end of each month will be reviewed by three chefs, which will be rotated every three months..."

"Wait, that means this Friday will be the month-end review?" Liu Maoxing reacted.

"That's true...and among the three months, the first two months are the preliminary review, the third month is the final review of the cooks who passed the preliminary review, and this month is the final review!" Li Yuan emphasized the importance of this matter sex.

Liu Maoxing couldn't help but said helplessly: "Senior Dojima really 'trusts' me..."

"Actually, the chefs for the month-end review are selected from senior chefs, although they are rotated every three months, but I heard that you have the same 'God's Tongue' as the young lady of the Nakiri family? I think Mr. Dojima also let you replace Chef Kojima out of this kind of consideration." Li Yuan said.

But Liu Maoxing secretly felt that Dojima Gin's intention was not only that...

Among the cooks who applied for promotion this month, I am afraid that many of them will be related to Nakiri Ji?

Could it be that Dojima-senpai left it to himself because he didn't want to force them by himself? But if their culinary skills are really qualified, I won't forcibly lower their evaluation! Of course... if I find a suitable excuse, then I'll say nothing! Liu Maoxing muttered to himself.

At this moment, Liu Maoxing's stomach rumbled.

"By the way, Chef Li, which direction is the high-end VIP restaurant?" Liu Maoxing asked blushingly.

Li Yuan and the others just tried a lot of dishes, but Liu Maoxing was always hungry!

It was only past two o'clock, Liu Maoxing decided to go to the high-end VIP restaurant first, and then report to the kitchen on the 12th floor.

According to Li Yuan's guidance, Liu Maoxing came to the western restaurant among the three high-end VIP restaurants...

The three high-end VIP restaurants are respectively biased towards French cuisine, Chinese cuisine and Turkish cuisine, corresponding to the three major food evaluation agencies.

"Hi sir, is this one?" A waiter came up immediately.

"That's right, just help me find a secluded place." Liu Maoxing said.

"Sir, is this your first visit to our restaurant?" The waiter looked a little embarrassed.

As the name suggests, the high-end VIP restaurant only accepts senior members of Yuanyue, so the three restaurants are not big, and the waiter is sure that he has never met Liu Maoxing, so he obviously wants to verify his identity, but he can't say it directly.

Liu Maoxing also understood his hint, and said directly: "I am the chef Liu Maoxing who will be intern this week. You can ask the person in charge to consult with chef Dojima or chef Li Yuan, chef Henggou, or chef Tanaka."

The waiter was stunned for a long time when he heard the words, as if he hadn't thought that this boy, who looked only sixteen years old, would be the "chef"!

In the entire Yuanyue Resort, the chefs are already considered high-level, especially the senior chefs, who are already at the decision-making level, such as the two chefs Henggou and Li Yuan mentioned by Liu Maoxing...

"Okay, sir, you can order first!" The waiter first handed the menu to Liu Maoxing, and then another waiter next to him left as if to verify Liu Maoxing's identity.

However, seeing Liu Maoxing's words were well-founded, although they were surprised, they didn't really doubt whether it was true or not. After all, it only needed an internal phone call to verify things...

Liu Maoxing looked at the menu... To be precise, he counted the menu. Although the characteristics, advantages, etc. of the dishes were marked behind each dish, Liu Maoxing did not look carefully, but counted more than two hundred dishes , half of which is the main course.

In this high-end VIP self-service hall, the dishes are mainly Western-style, and naturally they are all in the form of a course-by-course set meal.

There are more than one hundred main courses, half fish and half meat. As for other appetizers, soup dishes, desserts, etc., there are much fewer, because after all, the main course is the highlight...

Liu Maoxing calculated in his mind, the situation of the other two VIP restaurants is still unclear, but on average, he can only eat in one restaurant for two days!

"What are your business hours?" Liu Maoxing asked the waiter.

"We are open 24 hours a day, but we don't serve breakfast. There are only these dishes on the menu for 24 hours..." the waiter replied.

"Well, let's do this! You tell the colleagues in the kitchen to help me prepare any 20 main courses, and then you help me write down these 20 main courses." Liu Maoxing smiled.

"Twenty courses...only the main course?" The waiter paused when he heard this.

"Of course, each dish should be as small as possible... As for the charge, you can report it to the head chef of Dojima!" Liu Maoxing said.

Not all chefs can eat for free! At most, there are only discounts...

For a moment, several waiters in the restaurant couldn't help but secretly looked at Liu Maoxing with weird eyes.

Of course, they are all very hidden, but although Liu Maoxing does not have super vision and super hearing, his hearing and eyesight are far beyond ordinary people, so he discovered it.

Probably because they have never seen such a person who "eats more and takes more money"!

A total of twenty main courses, no matter how small, it is enough for a dozen people, even considering that there is only a single main course, it is enough for seven or eight people...

Liu Maoxing also showed his potential as a "big eater" afterwards. This main course, which is equivalent to a full meal for seven or eight people, was swept away by him without any waste!

After looking at the time, it was already half past three, Liu Maoxing asked for a pen and paper again, wrote several copies of something unknown, folded them all, and got up satisfied.

"Go slowly, sir, welcome to visit next time."

"Well, by the way... are you still in class at seven or eight o'clock in the evening?" Liu Maoxing asked.

"Yes, sir, do you want to make an appointment?"

"Appointment is waived. I don't know the exact time when I will come down, but I will definitely come in the evening. You can help me choose 20 main dishes first, and they must be different from before... You should also know the kitchen Cooks, you don’t want to 'contract' the cooking they are good at!" Liu Maoxing patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Don't worry, sir, I will make arrangements... Even if you come after ten o'clock in the evening, and I am already off work, I will make arrangements and record them, and hand them over to others before get off work!"

"Well, for these other small notes, you help me hand them over to the chef with the name of the dish on them, and no one else is allowed to open them!" Liu Maoxing said and handed a large pile of folded notes to the waiter.

The names of the dishes were marked on the outside of each note, which were the main dishes that Liu Maoxing ate before.

That's right, Liu Maoxing decided to eat three meals a day here for the first two days, with twenty main dishes for each meal, so he could just taste them all in two days!

No breakfast? It doesn't matter! Just open for business, who stipulates that breakfast can't be full of fish and meat?

Considering that chefs also have shifts, if some chefs who are good at dishes take a break, their colleagues will do it for them. Although there will not be much difference, in order to achieve the maximum effect, Liu Maoxing still instructed.

As for other appetizers, soup dishes, etc., I can only look for another chance...

Liu Maoxing is quite satisfied with the cuisine of high-end VIP restaurants. Among the 20 main dishes, 13 are "super four-star", six are "super five-star", and one has already reached the tiger level!

And Liu Maoxing estimated that the quality of the dishes will definitely increase in the future.

The cooks in the kitchen are suspicious of Liu Maoxing wasting food and chewing peonies in order to eat more and occupy more. Although out of the dignity of the cook, he did not cut corners on the dishes, but he certainly did not. Come up with the best dishes!

The only "tiger-level" dish, probably because of Gin Dojima's face, he reluctantly served it...

But now they should all know that with Liu Maoxing's appetite, they won't think he is a waste, especially the note that Liu Maoxing entrusted to them later, I believe they will cheer up next time after reading it!

That's right, what was written on those notes was tasted with the "God's Tongue", the omissions in the dishes!

Some things that are too small to be improved are ignored. Other Liu Maoxing have recorded them. The reason why they are stacked is to prevent other people from seeing them. The chef may not look good, and he feels like he is being pointed at...

At this time, in the kitchen of the high-end VIP restaurant, almost every official chef in the class received a note, and some even had more than one note!

"I have a share too? What is this little guy going to do..." Thomas, the blond and blue-eyed foreign chef, muttered.

The cooks opened the note one after another, and after reading it for a while, they were all stunned...

They were also stunned by Liu Maoxing who was already in the elevator!

"Why do I feel like I've been fooled by Dojima-senpai again? He wouldn't have expected this a long time ago, let me be a free appraiser, right? Tsk tsk, this guy looks like his muscles are growing into his brain Yes, but he is a complete old fox..."
