After a break, everyone sat in the restaurant and chatted for a while, and the lively atmosphere made everyone smile.
Especially Su Jinrong, may not have felt for a long time, Su Ji can be such a lively atmosphere.
Looking at my daughter and son-in-law, whether it is the neighbors on the old street, the parents of the granddaughter’s kindergarten children, or the two boys who gave the table, they can all have a hot chat.
Su Jinrong really clearly felt that the return of the son-in-law brought a series of changes to the entire Su Ji.
The son-in-law brought Su Ji to life, and his daughter became more cheerful, and found his position in the restaurant again.
This feeling made Su Jinrong feel very good, pleased and happy.
During the chat, everyone also discussed how to place the twenty tables.
Roughly several proposals have been proposed.
The relatively modest and mediocre plan, placing the tables in order like this, anyway, the space in the restaurant is still sufficient, which can leave a lot of space between the tables and allow the guests to sit more spaciously.
There are more tricks. For example, Li Fei'er suggested that you can put the table in a circle, put some in the inner circle, and put some in the outer circle.
In this way, the overall appearance of the character "Hui" is formed.
To be bolder, Yang Zhiyi proposed that the table should be placed in a military formation, for example, it could be placed in a triangular and prism array with one at the door, so that the number of tables should be increased row by row.
In the end, Su Ruoxi decided on the arrangement.
"I decided to use the method of Xixi's mother, but I have to make some changes."
Su Ruoxi's change is that the upper and lower parts of the word "hui" are not placed on the table.
Then there was no siege in the middle, but a staggered placement to ensure the distance between each table.
As for the tables in the outer circle, they are all placed close to the wall, so that there is room for the entrance and the back kitchen.
Su Ruoxi smiled and said, "In this way, whether guests come in or serve food in the back kitchen, there will be a buffer space so that it will not appear too crowded."
After Su Ruoxi's narration, everyone gradually came up with a form of placement in their minds, which was about a "return", without the two "horizontal" appearances of the upper and lower outer circle.
After Feng Yifan thought about it, he agreed with his wife's arrangement, and then everyone got up and started to help set the table.
When the tables were placed in accordance with Su Ruoxi's design, and everyone looked at them as a whole again, they found that the two sides were placed close to the wall, and they really looked neat.
Especially the white space when entering the door and coming out of the kitchen makes the space of the whole restaurant not appear crowded.
After placing it like this, the restaurant really has a completely new feel.
The scattered square wooden tables, matched with the original wooden chairs, also complement each other very well. The overall look is really simple and elegant.
Chen Yaofei's grandfather first sighed: "Well, it's really good if it's put in this way."
Grandma Chen Yaofei went on to say: "There is a feeling that our domestic oriental beauty is combined with Western restaurants."
After being said by Chen Yaofei's grandmother, Feng Yifan took a closer look and found that it seemed to be really similar.
In some restaurants abroad, he did see a lot of restaurants, and this kind of small tables would be placed in random order. The distance between each table is not too far, but not too close.
There is really a little bit of the taste of a top private kitchen restaurant.
Of course, these tables and chairs with oriental beauty in Su Ji will have a unique oriental charm.
At this time, a guest outside the door saw that the layout of the restaurant was completed, and couldn't help but probe in and ask.
"Boss, when do you start business?"
Feng Yifan still adheres to his own rules. Since he is closed today, he will not open the door for business even if it is already open for business. Because he wants to greet the friends who helped today.
So Feng Yifan turned around, facing the probe outside the door, and even some guests who stepped into the restaurant to explain seriously.
"I'm really sorry, today is the day when Suji's internal table is changed, so we are closed today. If you want to taste Suji's dishes, you can come tomorrow.
Thank you all for coming here to support Su Ji, I hope you can understand. "
Feng Yifan's remarks were still understood by the guests in front of the door.
"Okay boss, it's okay if it can't be open today, we can come back tomorrow."
"Boss, the arrangement you have now is really beautiful."
"Yes, the current layout is very elegant, and the table is changed to a small one, which is also suitable for three or five friends to eat."
"Yes, I will call my friends to come together tomorrow, and the four of them are just fine."
"I want to bring my girlfriend, two people are also suitable."
...
After listening to everyone at the door, Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Thank you for your understanding, but please also remember that Su Ji does not make morning tea. It opens at 11 noon and ends at lunch at 2 pm. It is mainly fried rice and Yifu noodles. Order some small meals.
For dinner, we will have a variety of cooking dishes. The daily menu will be changed according to the ingredients of the day. If you want to have a meal, please come in the evening.
Su Ji's dinner starts at 5:30 in the afternoon and ends at 9 in the evening. "
Feng Yifan's announcement also made some newcomers outside the door a bit embarrassed.
Someone couldn't help asking: "Why is there a time limit for lunch and dinner?"
But there is no need for Feng Yifan to explain further, some other guests have already helped answer.
"Isn't it normal to have business hours?"
"Yes, many restaurants will have business hours and will not be open all day."
"You must not have come to Su Ji to eat. Su Ji has the rules of Su Ji, but the dishes made by others are definitely worth following those rules."
"That is, even if it comes at noon, the fried rice and various toppings of Yifu noodles are very delicious."
"Ah, I especially like Yifu noodles. The toppings are really great."
"I like fried rice. Fried rice with various ingredients is also very delicious. It can be used as a rice or a vegetable."
...
The crowd became more lively as they talked, and even a little bit of not wanting to disperse.
In the end, there were some more sober people in the crowd who said something.
"Okay, don't think about it at the door. People are not open today. No matter how much you talk at the door, you can't eat it. It's almost six o'clock. Let's find a place to eat."
Such remarks caused a lot of laughter in the crowd, and then the crowd gradually dispersed.
Of course, before dispersing, most people will still take a photo before they turn around and leave with satisfaction.
After watching the crowd at the door disperse, the sky outside has gradually started to night.
Feng Yifan turned around and said to the people in the restaurant: "Well, everyone, please wait a moment. I will go to the back kitchen and start making this meal for everyone. It's a half-family dinner, to celebrate the beginning of a new chapter in Su Ji."
Yang Zhiyi said unceremoniously after hearing this, "Chef Feng, then you are going to make us a batch of hard dishes today."
Feng Yifan smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, all of you here today are relatives and friends. I will definitely offer you all hard dishes."
Lin Ruifeng got up and planned to go to the kitchen to help with his master, but Feng Yifan refused.
"Ruifeng, you also sit down today. Today is the time for Master to cook, so you don't need to intervene, you just have to wait quietly with everyone."
Lin Ruifeng immediately asked: "Master, is it okay for you to be alone? Or let me help you with it."
Feng Yifan confidently said, "Please remove the'?'. When your master just came back, you were all alone busy. Don't think you guys will rely on you after a few days of studying."
Lin Ruifeng hurriedly waved his hand: "No, Master, I just think you are too busy alone."
Feng Yifan raised his hand to stop the apprentice: "Needless to say, wait with everyone. Master is alone today."
Lin Ruifeng had to sit down in the end and watched Master walk towards the back kitchen alone.
Seeing Feng Yifan really go to the back kitchen by himself, and the two young men who came to send off the table, he was a little worried and asked, "Is it really okay to leave Brother Feng alone?"
Yang Zhiyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Chef Feng has the ability to control the kitchen by one person. Just wait and eat. After you have eaten today, you will feel that other restaurant cooks will not work."
The two young men looked at each other and looked forward to everyone else present, confident in Feng Yifan.
The two young men were even more surprised, and at the same time looked forward to Feng Yifan's dishes.
Before entering the back kitchen, Feng Yifan had planned today's dishes in his mind. After entering the back kitchen, he quickly selected the ingredients to be used, and first took out the various soup bases prepared yesterday and heated them first.
Next, all kinds of fresh ingredients are processed, everything is very orderly, and every step is very precise.
According to the number of people outside, some appropriate adjustments were made to the amount of various dishes.
Of course, the way Feng Yifan's dishes are presented tonight is also different.
He didn't use the traditional Eastern pan head, but it was not exactly the Western one. It looked like he didn't want to be full.
Feng Yifan has carried out a kind of synthesis, making the dishes a little more fancy, and at the same time slightly reducing the size of one plate, but will prepare multiple plates to present.
In this way, it can be guaranteed that everyone can eat it, and the amount will not be much worse.
The most important point is that in this way, enough space can be left on the plate to fill.
Naturally, the choice of dishes still has to meet the different needs of everyone.
For example, Feng Yifan will prepare some meat dishes such as beef and mutton for the two young men who brought the table.
For Yang Zhiyi and Yang Zhigang, as well as the neighbors in the old street, some more delicate meat dishes will be prepared, and some fine processing of pork will be carried out.
For the elderly, Feng Yifan prepares more lighter dishes, especially some fresh seafood, with some chickens, ducks and geese, and some eggs.
As for his wife and Li Feier and their women, Feng Yifan also specially prepared some dishes suitable for women.
Finally, there are three little babies. Feng Yifan has specially prepared some sweet and sour dishes for them, and they are very nutritious.
The back kitchen is busy, and the people in the restaurant in front are also full of expectations.
After the three little girls woke up, they finished washing upstairs before being taken down by the two grandma and two mothers.
Seeing strangers, the three little girls were a little shy at first. However, as time went by, the three little girls became more courageous, and joined the two unfamiliar uncles to ask questions.
The two lads who gave the table looked at the three cute little girls. They were also a little restrained, especially when they were approached.
Fortunately, time did not wait long. About forty minutes after Feng Yifan entered the back kitchen, he walked out of the back kitchen for the first time.
Naturally, the three little girls immediately gave up the two unfamiliar uncles and ran to their father Feng together.
Feng Yifan hugged the three little girls, smiled and bowed to everyone and asked: "Everyone, are you ready to welcome your dinner?"
It was Yang Zhiyi who rushed and said, "I can't wait a long time ago, hurry up and serve food."
Li Feier patted her husband with a smile and said, "You know how to eat, why are you in a hurry?"
Feng Yifan didn't mind, and asked the three little girls to return to their positions first: "The three of you will also go to your seats and sit down, and then Dad will serve you dishes."
When the little girls heard this, they ran back obediently and sat down at a table.
Seeing that his daughter and children were all seated, Feng Yifan said: "Okay, everyone, please wait, the dishes will be here soon."
Feng Yifan turned back to the back kitchen, and quickly walked out of the back kitchen with a tray full of various covers.
Seeing that car and the covered plate everyone suddenly looked forward to it.
Feng Yifan was not in a hurry either, and first walked to the old people's table, where two tables were pieced together to sit.
Feng Yifan served four dishes.
When the lid of the plate was lifted, everyone was a little surprised and stretched their heads to look at them. They were shocked by the display of the eight dishes on the two tables.
The crystal meat dishes are arranged like a book, two plates are fried brightly without oil and finely cut. Finally, another plate of hibiscus fish fillets like hibiscus flowers is supported. Four plates are like four works of art.
Next, Feng Yifan gave the men four dishes on the table.
There are four other dishes, which are also two meat and two vegetarian dishes, but the taste here is obviously better and stronger, all of which are braised in soy sauce and braised sauce.
For example, a plate of braised sirloin was served, and the other dish was served with eel paste.
But when it comes to the plate, whether it is braised sirloin or eel paste, Feng Yifan uses a more unique way of placing the plate.
In particular, Feng Yifan divides the eel paste into several small portions, and then puts them on a large plate, so that when everyone eats, they can directly pick up a small portion and eat it by themselves.
The sound of continuous "noisy" sounds at the moment when the oil eel was poured into the oil is really new.
Finally, the four dishes of two mothers and three girls were even more fancy. They prepared bell shrimp **** for the children. They were hung one by one, which really looked like small bells.
I prepared a veggie stir-fry for the two mothers, with a small cup of soup, the color is very beautiful, and the ingredients used are also very nourishing.
After watching the first round of serving, almost everyone can't help but exclaim in their hearts: it's so beautiful.
And the three little girls won't hide in their hearts, they just shouted out: "So beautiful, Father Feng is the best."
