Chapter 168 Choose a name that makes people feel that they cannot afford it.(1/2)

I am a chef in the university cafeteria Chapter 168: Choose a name that makes people feel that they cannot afford it.

"By the way, Boss Xiao Jiang, I heard someone said that your private room on the second floor has been renovated. Do you have a plan for when it will open?"

After Liu Shurong and Jiang Yu chatted for a while, the topic suddenly turned to the box.

Jiang Yu was startled, and then he remembered that Liu Shurong's husband sponsored the renovation of the second floor of the Seventh Canteen free of charge.

The logistics department has already used this money to renovate the second floor, and will naturally notify the other party afterwards. This is a sign of respect for the sponsor.

It's not surprising that Liu Shurong knew this.

Speaking of which, Jiang Yu and Liu Shurong have been in contact for so long, and the two million yuan sponsorship has never been mentioned in their conversations.

Probably in Liu Shurong's view, 2 million is just a small amount of money and not worth mentioning at all.

This is the real rich home.

Completely different from those nouveau riche who buy a luxury car and have to take pictures and show it off to their friends. They are not only rich, but also have a lot of background.

Thinking about this, Jiang Yu thought for a while and then replied:

"The renovation of the second floor was completed a few days ago. I haven't decided when it will open yet. It may take some time."

Liu Shurong pursed her lips and smiled: "You haven't thought about menu pricing, right?"

"Well, I really didn't think about it."

Jiang Yu nodded honestly and said with a smile,

"Since I learned cooking, I have only worked in canteens and have never been exposed to this type of work. I really didn't know where to start."

"I have been exposed to many high-end private kitchens in Qiantang. Your second floor can be positioned according to the specifications of a private kitchen."

When Liu Shurong talked about these things, she completely lost the weakness and helplessness she had as Lele's mother. Instead, she exuded the aura of a strong woman. She went on to say,

"I have tasted the food cooked by many famous chefs. Compared with them, your cooking skills are not inferior to them.

Most of the per capita consumption of those private restaurants starts at 200 yuan, and your standard on the second floor cannot be lower than theirs."

Jiang Yu was shocked by what Liu Shurong said:

Per capita consumption starts at 200 yuan?

Doesn’t this mean that a banquet for ten people would cost at least two thousand yuan?

This, this, this, this is too expensive, right?

It's not that Jiang Yu doesn't know that some top private restaurants are indeed prohibitively expensive, but not only do they have a quiet environment, but each dish is unique and beautifully presented, just like a work of art.

But it's different here. Although there are private rooms on the second floor, the student canteen is downstairs. It's as noisy as a vegetable market, and the environment is by no means good.

As for the food…

To be honest, his plating is a weak point, and he will definitely not be able to achieve the plating effect of those top private restaurants.

Moreover, his level of cooking skills is not enough to support his own creation of dishes. Being able to make traditional dishes according to the recipes given by the system is already very good.

After all, Jiang Yu is still a student who has not left campus, and is still somewhat resistant to such high consumption.

After all, half a year ago, he was still washing dishes in a restaurant for a salary of more than 100 yuan a day. If you ask him to price the per capita consumption at 200 yuan, it is really difficult for him to accept it for a while.

Although, others are spending money and he is making money.

Although he can make money, he also hopes to make it with peace of mind.

Jiang Yu hesitated, "Is the price too high?"

"It's really not high. The food you cook is worth the price."

Liu Shurong turned around and looked at the environment in the cafeteria, and said with a smile,

"If the private room was not on the second floor of the student cafeteria, but on the edge of the small lake next to Taoyuan Hall, and the environment was more private, the per capita consumption would be 2000, not to mention 200, and there would be a lot of people coming."

Jiang Yu can understand this.

After all, many celebrities, celebrities or political and business leaders are also food lovers, and they often go to some high-end restaurants to eat.

One of the biggest advantages of private restaurants is that they are secretive and can protect the privacy of these big shots.

Because private restaurants themselves are not well-known to the public, their consumer groups are limited to high-end people, and ordinary people may not even be able to find them.

But in Jiang Yu's heart, he was actually unwilling to make the private room on the second floor so highbrow.

Isn’t it just to make delicious dishes so that more people can taste them?

If you can only serve a small group of people, then the point of cooking is lost.

The two chatted for a while, and Liu Shurong talked a lot about private restaurants. Jiang Yu listened carefully and felt that he benefited a lot.

Of course, there are some things that he can agree with, and there are some things that he doesn't intend to adopt.

For example, in some private restaurants, one serving is only enough for one or two bites, which is known as the portioned meal system...

What is this for?

Isn’t the point of Chinese cuisine that a group of people happily sit in a circle around the table, eating big chunks of meat and drinking wine?

This is the fireworks!

The scene of a harmonious family gathering together happily is the most important part of Chinese catering culture.

If you are worried about being unhygienic, it’s not like you can’t use the public expressway, so you have to make so few dishes...

If you invite others to dinner, they will think you can’t afford it!

Therefore, Jiang Yu does not agree with this so-called internationalization. Chinese catering is a matter for Chinese people and has nothing to do with foreigners.

What he cooks is traditional Chinese cuisine, and of course he must continue the tradition of Chinese cuisine, which is big bowls of vegetables and large pieces of meat.

You like to eat it or not, but if you don’t eat it, there are people who are willing to eat it!

The two chatted for a while, and Liu Shurong finally said:

"Boss Xiao Jiang, I will stay here with Lele for a few more days. In a few days, I may have to go back to Qiantang. I can't stay here with him all the time.

Of course, I will find someone to take care of Lele before I go back. This is not a problem.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The only thing I am worried about is his eating, so I can only trouble you in this regard."

Liu Shurong had already mentioned this matter before. Jiang Yu nodded and said nothing.

"You can probably guess that the reason why Lele was able to come to the High School Affiliated to Jiangda University as a student must have been helped by someone."

Liu Shurong smiled and continued,

"So, before I go back, I want to set up a banquet at your place and invite those people over for a meal to thank them.

I just don’t know if Boss Xiao Jiang is willing to open the private rooms on the second floor in advance?”

Jiang Yu was slightly surprised when he heard this.

He could roughly guess that inviting people to dinner was just one of the reasons why Liu Shurong did this.

The greater possibility is that she plans to use this method to help Jiang Yu officially launch the private rooms on the second floor of the canteen.

She even wanted to use her consumption level for this meal to help make a relatively accurate positioning for the second floor of the cafeteria.

It's hard for Jiang Yu to refuse this kind of thing. After all, this is mutual help and both sides can benefit.

In this case, Jiang Yu was no longer polite and asked:

"When will Aunt Liu plan to treat us?"

"I'll probably stay here for a few more days, and I'll have to wait for Lele's nanny to come over before I go back to Qiantang."

Liu Shurong thought for a while and then said,

"Today is February 11th, tentatively four days later. After all, I have to make appointments with those people. What do you think?"

Jiang Yu thought about it, in four days, the school would have officially opened for several days. By then, the school gate would be strengthened again, and the cafeteria on the first floor would not be as busy as it is today.

The canteen is on the right track, and the private rooms on the second floor can indeed be opened to the public. Otherwise, wouldn't all the money spent on renovation and renovation be in vain?

"Okay, Aunt Liu can just tell me one day in advance. The second floor is not open yet, and the ingredients have to be purchased temporarily."

"Okay, let's just say this first. If the time for the treat is determined, I will inform you as soon as possible."

Liu Shurong nodded and said with a smile,

"Then I won't disturb Boss Xiao Jiang. You go about your business first. Lele and I will go back to the clubhouse first."

With that said, she took Lele's hand and turned around and walked out of the door of Qi Canteen.

After sending Liu Shurong and her son away, Jiang Yu returned to the kitchen.

The lunch business hours have ended, and a group of people are gathering around the operating table, eating and chatting.

Seeing Jiang Yu coming, Ma Guoqiang said with a smile:

"Boss Xiao Jiang, we saw that you were busy outside, so we didn't wait for you to eat together.

Hurry up and serve the rice, this dish is almost cold!"

"okay!"
