Life is a Game

There are eight domestic participating restaurants and eight foreign participating restaurants. Since the restaurant on the top floor is in Beiping, Chef Arnold only wants to fight with Taifeng Building. The funding for the program is all because of him. He is the veritable sponsor of the program, and the competition system has become seven plus one.

The eight domestic restaurants are Top Floor Restaurant, Taifeng Building, Yonghe Ju, Babaozhai, Zhiweiju, Bazhen Restaurant, Chengji Restaurant and Huaiyanglou. Four of the eight restaurants are in Beiping, and the remaining four are The most famous restaurants are Bazhen Pavilion and Zhiweiju.

As a rare restaurant in China known for its white case, Zhiweiju's status is self-evident. Bazhen Restaurant used to be the number one restaurant in Guangdong Province, but due to the large number of restaurants in Guangdong Province, it has not been able to decide the real number one. Unlike Jubaolou, although it also specializes in Cantonese cuisine, it easily won the title of FJ's No. 1 restaurant because it is not in Guangdong Province.

Both Chen Ji Restaurant and Huaiyang Restaurant are old restaurants with some years of history, and they mainly serve Huaiyang cuisine. Pei Shenghua is now working in Huaiyang Building, and Huaiyang Building has hosted state banquets in the early years, so its strength should not be underestimated.

Such a comparison, it seems that Babaozhai, which has no reputation but no strength, is a bastard who bought it with money. Jiang Feng seriously suspected that Ling Guangzhao bought this entry list through the back door.

In fact, this list was indeed bought by him with money. Originally, the program group was interested in Wu's Restaurant. However, Wu Minqi's father and Grandpa Wu are not interested in participating in a reality show at all, and the Wu family restaurant has ruled the roost in Sichuan for so many years and does not need any publicity. Mr. Wu didn't want to make a fuss about his age. Anyway, Wu Minqi would not represent Wu's restaurant in the competition, so he simply refused.

Only then did Ling Guangzhao find an opportunity to spend a huge sum of money to buy a quota.

I don't know where Ling Guangzhao got the confidence to come to participate in this competition full of gods. Although Babaozhai's business is good, there is not a single chef who can fight. If you participate in a competition of this nature, if you are at the bottom and accompany you, you will lose ugly. Don't talk about publicity at that time, I'm afraid that Dabao's little reputation in these years will be exhausted all at once.

But this was Ling Guangzhao's business, and Jiang Feng didn't care much about it.

Jiang Feng took a little time to pay attention to the participating restaurants in China, but Jiang Feng only glanced at the eight participating restaurants abroad, and he didn't know any of them anyway.

In fact, I still know one of them, because the competition system is seven plus one, and a top-floor restaurant is mixed in on the Beiping side, and a Chinese restaurant is destined to be mixed in on the American side, and this Chinese restaurant is Peng Changping's restaurant.

ese Food Restaurant

It can be seen from Peng Changping's name of the restaurant, Jiang Feng, that he really doesn't know how to name it.

The start time of the competition was set on October 15th. On Monday, it was already October 11th when Jiang Feng got the entry list. It may be to maintain the freshness and mystery, and to prevent several restaurants from spying on each other's opponents or making insidious tricks, the program team only announced the competition process and participating restaurants, but did not announce the list of participating chefs.

But the list is actually not that difficult to guess. There are only one or two great chefs in each restaurant. Even if you guess with your eyes closed, you can guess one or two right. As long as you guess the most important ones, it doesn’t matter who they are. .

Although the competition method has changed to seven plus one, the specific competition system remains unchanged. As agreed before, each of the four chefs smoked a dish, and scored according to the sales volume of the week and the positive and negative reviews of customers.

Because it is a reality show, the program team sent people to sign a contract with Taifeng Building in advance to install cameras in Taifeng Building and the homes of several contestants, except for bedrooms and toilets. In addition to installing cameras, the program team will also send a photographer to each contestant to follow the shots at any time, which can be said to have cost a huge amount of money.

The installation of the camera caused a certain commotion in Taifeng Building. Even though they knew that the recording of the reality show had not started yet, everyone couldn't help but glance at the camera when they passed by. Sang Ming was still thinking about it in the back kitchen, wondering if he should spend a lot of money on a fashionable hairstyle, so that he would look better if he was photographed.

As a result, Sang Ming, who had been thinking about it for two days, didn't spend any money to perm his hair, but Master Wang and Qiu Fu spent huge sums of money to perm their unrecognizable hair. It can be seen that the middle-aged chef idol in Taifeng Building has a heavy burden.

Jiang Feng felt that if it wasn't for his own father, Comrade Jiang Jiankang, who really didn't have hair to perm, he might have done it too. When Jiang Feng was having lunch these two days, he kept seeing Jiang Jiankang holding up his cell phone with a black screen to take pictures. It seemed that he was taking pictures of his bald head.

What other people care about is whether their hair looks good or not, and their makeup skills are not good enough, which is related to idol baggage. The contestants like Jiang Feng were concerned about some more important things.

Choice of dishes.

The points method in the first stage is good reviews, bad reviews and sales. Good reviews are important, but the most important thing is sales. No matter how good the quality is, the points will definitely not be high. Under this competition system, Jiang Feng felt that Zhiweiju should be the most advantageous among the eight restaurants in China. Their main white case had the best sales volume of pastries, and the amount was definitely piled up.

Both quality and quantity are important, Jiang Feng can't serve many dishes, especially buff dishes.

But Jiang Feng is most famous for those buff dishes.

In order to prevent restaurants from cheating in price wars, the program team deliberately investigated the previous dishes and prices of major restaurants, and specially marked in the competition rules that new dishes are not allowed, and malicious price reductions are not allowed.

What seemed the easiest stage turned out to be the most difficult stage for Jiang Feng.

He doesn't have ten courses.

To be precise, he doesn't have ten dishes that can be piled up.

The recording officially started on the 15th, and the menu had to be reported before noon on the 13th at the latest. It was already 8:00 on the 13th, and Jiang Feng hadn't finalized the menu yet.

You know, it only took Sun Jikai ten minutes to finalize the menu.

Seeing that there were still four hours to go, Jiang Feng's menu currently only had the two dishes of Chickpea Curd and Eight Treasure Chestnut Pigeon.

Jiang Feng could only flip through the old menu of Taifeng Building, looking at the menu while babbling, like a dementia.

For this competition, he trained so hard in Yonghe Residence for so long, practicing Jiang's ginseng soup, but he didn't expect to lose in the first place.

"Old Sun, I really envy you. You can report the menu without even thinking about it." Jiang Feng put down his phone in despair, and made an envious voice to Sun Jikai.

Sun Jikai:?

I suspect you are scolding me.

"Fengfeng, can't you really make more servings of your shredded yam?" Wu Minqi still couldn't understand why Jiang Feng was unwilling to change these limited dishes into unlimited ones.

"No." Jiang Feng firmly refused, buff dishes must have the last persistence of buff.

"I added ground three delicacies and chili fried pork. I just saw that the sales of these two dishes were not bad before." Sun Maocai said after carefully studying the menu and sales.

Several people discussed it again and added crab stuffed with orange.

Crab Stuffed Oranges can only trigger the buff if sold together with Zhajiang Noodles, and sold alone can be regarded as an ordinary dish. Moreover, the crab-stuffed orange seasonal dish is now the time to eat crab-stuffed oranges, and the sales should be good.

After two hours of intense discussions, the four of them finally settled on Jiang Feng's recipe with difficulty.

Chickpea Curd, Eight Treasure Chestnut Pigeon, Ground Three Fresh, Stuffed Orange with Crab, Stir-Fried Pork with Chili, Stir-fried Shredded Potato, Scrambled Egg with Tomato, Salt and Pepper River Prawn, Minced Meat Eggplant and Pure Meat Wonton.

Even pure meat wontons were on the menu, so one could imagine how hard Jiang Feng's dishes were to find.

After submitting the menu before the deadline, Jiang Feng sighed deeply, thinking that if there were no accidents, he must be the one behind the Taifeng Building.

If you get chicken bean curd, eight-treasure chestnut pigeon, and pure meat chaos, these stable dishes are easy to handle. If you get a tomato scrambled egg or fried potato shreds, Taifenglou will probably say goodbye to qualifying.

The deadline at twelve o'clock, Jiang Feng reported the menu at eleven forty-seven, and at one o'clock the program team told everyone about the first week's competition dishes.

Sun Maocai: Baby food in soup.

Wu Minqi: Mapo tofu.

Sun Jikai: Stir-fried Beef River.

Jiang Feng: Stir-fried shredded potatoes.

Jiang Feng: ...

When the news was received, the four of them happened to be eating at the same table.

Jiang Feng gave Sun Jikai a positive look, and even enthusiastically poured Sun Jikai a glass of free boiled water.

"Come on, grandson, we're relying on you this week!"

Sun Jikai's fried beef is cheaper than Ji Xue's. During this period of time, he has improved his cooking skills. The quality of fried beef is actually comparable to Ji Xue's, and he is very popular among the diners of Taifeng Building.

The most important thing is that he is very fast.

Sun Jikai's Fried Niuhe was the No. 1 seller in Taifeng Building last month!

Sun Jikai:? ? ?
