Chapter 147 Roll up in the university cafeteria
"What did you just say? Wu Canteen is closed?"
Just after lunch time, when Hu Zhihai came over from the library to eat, he brought an explosive news.
The other people in the cafeteria were okay. They had no impression of Wu Canteen, and they closed their doors as soon as they closed. But as a student of Jiangzhou University, Jiang Yu still felt a little weird.
"Yeah, at first I thought I heard it wrong. When I came over at noon, I made a special detour to take a look. It was indeed closed, the door was locked, and there was a notice posted above."
The expression on Hu Zhihai's face was also a little sad. He said with some pity,
"Speaking of which, the various egg pancakes, shredded potato burritos, and Mexican chicken burritos made by Wushitang are quite delicious. I was thinking about when to try them again, but I was...
I haven’t had time to go yet, the canteen is gone..."
"Is this normal? There are seven cafeterias in the school. If our business is good, the business of other cafeterias will be bad. If no one goes there for a period of time, it will be strange that the cafeteria can still be open."
Lu Shuwu thought it was quite normal. He said while eating,
"To open such a big canteen, everything costs money. Rent, water and electricity bills, various food ingredients, and employee wages, etc., may not seem like much, but they add up to a lot of money.
.
So, regardless of how easy it is to make money in the school cafeteria, if no one comes to eat, losing money will be like throwing it into the water, and you won’t even see it soaking!”
"Well, the Fifth Canteen is a bit like us. The location is a bit remote. It is neither close to the student dormitories nor the teaching buildings. If there is no special food, students will not be willing to go there."
Jiang Yu nodded and said with a little hesitation,
"When Wu Canteen first opened, it focused on special snacks such as various sauce-flavored pancakes, hand pancakes, and pancakes and fruits. In fact, it attracted many students at the beginning.
It's a pity that there are too few changes. The sauce-flavored pancakes and hand pancakes are okay if you eat them occasionally, but they will be like that if you eat them too much.
The most important thing is that it was summer when we opened, and the weather was so hot. Those scones and pancakes were too dry and easy to get angry, so it was normal for students not to want to go there to eat them.
If Wu Canteen had made some changes at that time, it might have been able to reverse some of its decline, but unfortunately it didn't.
So it’s natural that it can’t hold on.”
"When I came all the way, I found that both the first cafeteria and the second cafeteria were quite nervous. They were probably worried about following in the footsteps of the fifth cafeteria."
Hu Zhihai saw that everyone was a little silent, and deliberately laughed to liven up the atmosphere. He said,
"The cafeteria has launched a meal-and-drink-for-dinner campaign. As long as you spend more than ten yuan on a meal, you will receive a cup of freshly squeezed juice.
The second cafeteria is even more exaggerated. They have organized a couple's set meal event. If two people go to eat, as long as one of them orders a meal, the other person can get a 20% discount on the meal, plus a huge drink!
Not to mention, when they did this, many students were indeed attracted to it."
"They have no choice. They taste better than food, and they can't compare with us, so they can only use their brains in these aspects...
To put it bluntly, this is a school after all, and there are always some students from poor families. In order to save some money, the taste of the food is not that important."
Lu Shuwu shook his head and said clearly,
"Besides, if those other canteens don't think of a solution quickly, we are too small. Otherwise, sooner or later, they will all be killed by us."
"How could it be that exaggerated?"
Jiang Yu couldn't help laughing. He stood up from his seat, took out a tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth, and continued,
"In any case, it is a good thing that the canteen is closed. At least most students can still benefit. At the very least, they can eat cheaper and more delicious canteen food in the future. Isn't this enough?
As for those cafeterias that stick to the rules and only want to make money from students, that's still better.
The sooner it closes, the better.”
After saying this, Jiang Yu turned around and planned to sit in the dining room box.
The cafeteria box was renovated from a storage room when Liu Xining and Xie Siqi came to school.
After Liu Xining and Xie Siqi left, the school did not send anyone to move the tables, sofas, etc. inside, and they just left them there. Jiang Yu had no idea what to do with them, so he simply left the box as it was.
Although the canteen no longer needs to receive other people, it is still quite suitable to use it during lunch breaks.
As soon as he turned around and took two steps, Lu Shuwu caught up with him, came over and asked:
"Hey, boss, tomorrow is New Year's Day, don't we plan to hold some activities in the cafeteria?"
Jiang Yu didn't stop, glanced at him, and asked, "What activities do you want to do?"
"Didn't I ask you this? You are the owner of the cafeteria."
Lu Shuwu said as he walked,
"Last Christmas, didn't you promise to do something for New Year's Day?"
"It's too troublesome to organize activities. We are a school cafeteria. How can we take care of so many people?"
Jiang Yu thought for a while and finally said,
"If you really want to do it, let's add a special dish, something different from usual, an internet celebrity dish?"
"What internet celebrity dish?"
Lu Shuwu actually didn't care much about what activities were being held. What he cared about most was whether there were any new dishes to eat.
Now when I heard that Jiang Yu was planning to launch an internet celebrity dish, I immediately became excited.
"Mutton skewers with pancakes? Add a large intestine wrapped with green onions?"
Jiang Yu thought for a while and then said,
"The weather is getting a bit cold now, so we can add a bowl of mutton soup. With this kind of meal, even if you don't eat rice, students with average appetites can almost be full."
"It sounds delicious."
When Lu Shuwu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. When he thought about the fragrant mutton skewers with a strong aroma of cumin and the grilled large intestines that were sizzling with oil, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, the saliva in his mouth almost flowed out.
Lu Shuwu quickly took a sip of saliva and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, let's sell this for dinner tomorrow!"
With that said, he turned around and planned to go back and tell others the good news.
When Jiang Yu saw that he was about to run away, he quickly stopped him and ordered:….
"Go back and tell Uncle Ma and Sister He that you can start kneading the dough and making pancakes in the afternoon. Prepare the scones early and prepare more to avoid not having enough to sell tomorrow."
"okay, I get it!"
Lu Shuwu responded and hurried back.
After Lu Shuwu left, Jiang Yu thought about it and took out his mobile phone to call Boss Zhao. He was going to add new dishes tomorrow, so the ingredients needed to be prepared in advance to avoid running out of ingredients and being in a hurry.
In addition, since you are going to have a barbecue, an oven and smokeless charcoal are definitely indispensable.
…
Just after lunch the next day, Jiang Yu didn't even have time to rest, so he took bamboo skewers and started skewering the mutton skewers.
Mutton kebab sandwich is actually not a new food. It is a snack in Jeju Prefecture, Ludong Province, which emerged in the mid-1990s.
At first, it was named after deep-fried mutton skewers sandwiched into dough cut inside.
In just a few years, due to its delicious taste and low price, this snack has spread all over the streets and alleys of Jeju Prefecture and has also spread to the surrounding areas of Jeju.
With the continuous improvement of technology, the biscuits are no longer limited to mutton skewers. Dozens of fried meats, eggs, vegetable skewers are added, and seasonings such as chili powder, cumin powder, peanuts, and sauce are added to give it a unique taste.
Unique.
Of course, when Jiang Yu makes this mutton kebab sandwich in the canteen, it is naturally impossible to prepare so many ingredients. The main ingredient is mutton kebabs, plus some pork belly, Xiang Gu, green peppers, leeks and other varieties, and it is basically the same.
.
The mutton skewers and pancakes are just fresh. It’s okay to eat them once or twice occasionally, but eat them more often.
Tired of it.
As for the other dish, fat sausage rolls with green onions, it is a special delicacy in Sichuan and Chongqing.
Combine fresh scallions and fatty intestines, and bake them at high temperatures on the barbecue rack to fully force out the fat. The resulting texture is charred on the outside and tender on the inside. The scallions neutralize the greasiness of the fatty intestines well, and are full of spicy flavor, which is very tempting.
appetite.
After Lu Shuwu skewered the ingredients for a while, he said happily:
"Boss, when the ingredients are ready, I'll make some for everyone to taste first. I can't help but drool right now!"
Hu Zhihai said with shining eyes:
"I want to eat fat sausage rolls with scallions, one in each hand, one bite on the left side, one bite on the right side, it's so delicious!"
"One bite on the left, one on the right..."
Jiang Yu glanced at Hu Zhihai and said with a speechless expression,
"Why don't you look in the mirror and see how fat you are?"
"..."
Hu Zhihai said angrily, "My parents don't dislike me, so you dislike me?"
Jiang Yu curled his lips, ignored him, and continued busy with what he was doing.
Six or seven people in the kitchen had nothing to do after lunch. Everyone gathered around to help skewer the skewers. They were busy until almost four o'clock in the afternoon. Just the mutton skewers alone took over a hundred kilograms of lamb.
In addition to the mutton skewers, there are also some pork belly, xianggu, green pepper, and fat sausage rolled with green onions, piled in large stainless steel pots, looking like a hill.
"That's almost it. That's it. If there are more, we won't be able to finish baking tonight."
Jiang Yu looked at the large basins on the operating table, clapped his hands and said,
"It's not too early now, so I won't stir up a few dishes tonight. With these barbecues, there won't be many people willing to eat rice. They are all students, so there are quite a lot of people who want to try something new."
"Yes, everyone, please do us a favor and transport some of these materials to the window first, and also send some scones over there."
Lu Shuwu greeted everyone and said with a smile,
"The mutton soup in the soup pot is almost ready. After the boss fixes the grill, we can wait to taste the delicious food!"
