Chapter 705 Pastry Chef Who Likes Chestnuts(1/2)

Feng Yifan tasted the snacks handed to him by two girls, and he had to say that the taste of the snacks was indeed very good.

"Well, these two Montbrowns are doing well."

Shi Tao heard this and asked curiously: "Uncle Yifan, do you think these two cakes are called Montbron? Why do they call them that?"

Feng Yifan smiled and explained: "Monbrown refers to a cake made of chestnut mud. There is a mountain in the European Alps called "Peak Blanc". The earliest cake was made based on the shape of Pleak Blanc. In autumn, Pleak Blanc will turn brown because of the withering trees on the peaks.

The chestnuts just happened to be harvested in autumn, and the chestnut mud is also brown, and it looks like Bailang, so it is named after it."

All of them listened very seriously, including Shi Jiahui and Yang Zhiyi.

Shi Tao praised: "Uncle Yifan, you know so much."

Feng Yifan waved his hand: "This is actually nothing. I have made desserts abroad, so it is natural to understand the various origins of these desserts."

Feng Ruoruo raised the small spoon again and asked his father to eat it together.

Feng Yifan said to his daughter: "Dad doesn't want to eat it, you can eat it with Xixi."

The two little girls started eating by themselves.

Soon, four of the same cakes were sent.

Feng Yifan did not eat, but distributed his own to the two little girls.

Others tried the cake.

After tasting it, Yang Zhiyi said, "Well, this taste is really special, with a faint chestnut fragrance, and it is really delicious with the butter and chocolate crispy skin below."

Feng Yifan asked Shi Jiahui: "Sister Sister, is this cake recipe left by Luo Yu?"

Shi Jiahui replied: "Yes, it was Luo Yu who stayed by him. I heard that Luo Yu has been studying this kind of Montbrown. In addition, in her and Chen Xi's store, similar Montbrown is also the best-selling one."

Feng Yifan nodded: "It seems that Luo Yu is really of a good level."

Shi Jiahui asked curiously: "How do you say this?"

Feng Yifan explained seriously: "Because, under normal circumstances, Montbrown does not have such a strong chestnut fragrance, because after chestnuts are made into chestnut mud, the fragrance will evaporate a lot, so after making Montbrown, the chestnut fragrance will be lighter.

But the chestnut aroma in the hotel restaurant is very strong and tastes even more fragrant.”

Feng Ruoruo also said to his father: "Yes, yes, dad, this cake is so delicious."

Yang Xiaoxi continued, "Well, it smells so good, it's like eating chestnuts."

Yang Zhiyi finished his meal and praised: "I didn't expect that the dim sum in this restaurant is so delicious. It seems that you can come here to have a dim sum next time."

Shi Jiahui smiled and said, "When Luo Yu was here, someone did come here to have a snack."

At this time, Feng Yifan did not speak, and he fell into deep thought.

But before thinking for long, my daughter pulled his thoughts back with her little hands.

"Dad, we've all finished eating. Xixi and I are sleepy. We have to go upstairs to take a nap."

Feng Yifan came back to his senses and smiled and said, "Okay, then let's go upstairs."

After that, the group prepared to leave the restaurant.

When they learned that they were leaving, chef Yu Quan still walked out of the kitchen and gave Feng Yifan a special look.

At the entrance of the restaurant, Feng Yifan asked the little girls to leave with everyone first, and he stayed to chat with Yu Quan for a while.

"Is the last Montbrown the recipe you bought?"

Yu Quan nodded and said, "Yes, Luo Yu was originally a dessert chef in the restaurant, but later she chose to leave. When she left, the hotel manager bought her a few dessert recipes after asking the headquarters."

Feng Yifan asked again: "Then how much do you know about Luo Yu and Chen Xi?"

Yu Quan was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding why Feng Yifan cared about those two people so much?

However, he hesitated a little, he still told Feng Yifan truthfully.

"I know Luo Yu quite well. When she came to the hotel restaurant to take charge of desserts, I was already the chef of the restaurant. At the beginning, she was a pretty ordinary girl, and she was not very lively. She didn't talk much to other colleagues, and she didn't go out with others when she was resting.

But she has a strong learning ability and strong hands-on ability. She always follows the dessert masters at that time to do various studies. She is really obsessed with dessert making.”

According to Yu Quan, Luo Yu was not very outstanding in the hotel restaurant at the time.

But Yu Quan still saw that Luo Yu was a very arduous person.

So later Luo Yu challenged the dessert master and surpassed the dessert master in one fell swoop. Yu Quan was not much surprised. He felt that everything was the result of Luo Yu's efforts.

Yu Quan talked about Luo Yu's departure, but it was a bit incredible: "To be honest, I didn't expect that Luo Yu would choose to leave. I think the restaurant gave her good enough treatment, and she could get more opportunities in the restaurant to show herself on a larger stage."

Yu Quan said nothing wrong. After all, they are a multinational hotel chain, and the headquarters hotel is a veritable four-star hotel, and they also have a one-star restaurant as a guarantee.

So if Luo Yu stays in the restaurant, he should have the opportunity to go abroad next.

If you can be selected by the headquarters hotel and go there to study, it will definitely be a big improvement in Luo Yu's dessert production.

But Luo Yu finally chose to leave.

Feng Yifan could guess some of the reasons behind this.

Speaking of which, the reason may have something to do with him, Feng Yifan.

At the beginning, Feng Yifan had just gone abroad and failed the test in his aunt's catering group. He was unwilling to return to China, so he went around to find a job.

It just so happened that this international hotel chain restaurant was recruiting workers, so Feng Yifan naturally chose to apply for the job in order to make a living.

When he entered the hotel restaurant, Feng Yifan was not favored by anyone at first.

At that time, his foreign language skills were not good, and because he had always studied traditional Chinese food, he didn't know much about Western food. He could only do odd jobs in the kitchen.

However, in just a few months, Feng Yifan learned a lot of things in Western cuisine with his unyielding courage to learn by himself.

And a few months later, a competition in the restaurant kitchen stood out.

Later, the restaurant received a notice from the hotel that in order to complete the four-star evaluation, the hotel planned to replace the kitchen staff and hired a chef from a two-star restaurant to be the chef with a high salary.

However, out of pity, the hotel gave the hotel kitchen a chance. They need to be qualified for the star rating. If they can get nominations, the kitchen kitchen chef can be retained.

The chef did want to seize that opportunity at that time, but unfortunately he couldn't bear the huge pressure and eventually failed.

After the chef voluntarily withdrew, Feng Yifan took on the role of the chef in the kitchen in order not to lose his job.

Moreover, during the star rating nomination stage, he successfully got the hotel and restaurant nomination.

After another half a year, Feng Yifan successfully won one star in the restaurant.

This incident can be said to be a miracle inside the hotel.

After obtaining one star, Feng Yifan realized his shortcomings, so he resolutely chose to leave the hotel restaurant and sold the one-star menu to the hotel through a high price.

The hotel party suffered a loss at that time because they signed an ordinary employment contract with Feng Yifan.

So there is no way to force Feng Yifan to keep him when he is about to resign.

Therefore, the hotel party could only endure the pain and let Feng Yifan leave the hotel and buy the menu cooking recipe that Feng Yifan received at a high price.

Later, the hotel discussed this matter and revised a contract.

That contract is used by the hotel headquarters for all employees who go to the headquarters for training.

It can be said that it was a binding contract.

The hotel provides a variety of training, allowing employees who have been selected from all over the world to train at the hotel headquarters to receive very sophisticated and professional training to help them achieve higher improvements.

But at the same time, after training, employees need to stay in the hotel for at least five years.

Feng Yifan guessed that it should be because of this contract that Luo Yu refused to go to the headquarters for training.

Because she met Chen Xi at that time, the two of them should have already thought of being together at that time, so the two people in love naturally did not want to separate, and they would have been separated for five years.

Feng Yifan asked Yu Quan again: "Have you seen that Chen Xi? His dim sum is really good?"

Yu Quan hesitated for a moment and said, "I have seen Chen Xi mastered the well-known dim sum master in China, "Zhu Chengqiang". He was indeed very accomplished in Chinese dim sum. At that time, he finally made a traditional Suzhou-Hangzhou dim sum "Lizi Xiang Cake", which was a draw with Luo Yu."

Feng Yifan couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

According to Shi Jiahui, the dessert shop opened by Chen Xi and Luo Yu mainly focuses on chestnut snacks.

These two people, one makes Chinese chestnut cakes, and the other uses chestnuts to make Montbrown, which really feels like a natural couple.

Feng Yifan had a rough understanding and said goodbye to Yu Quan.

Yu Quan couldn't help but ask some questions in the end.

Feng Yifan also gave advice and encouraged Yu Quan to try to break out of his menu.

Yu Quan was still very satisfied with the communication with Feng Yifan.

After all, it is a very exciting thing for every chef in the hotel restaurant to see the founder of the one-star package on their menu.

Yu Quan not only met people, but also asked a lot of questions and felt that he was very lucky.

Feng Yifan took the elevator and went upstairs to return to the room.

Unexpectedly, neither of the two girls were sleeping and were waiting for Feng Yifan to come back.

"Dad, you're back."

"Dad Feng is back."
