Upon hearing the sound, Huang Tao guessed that the person coming must be Xu Hao, who ca to apply for the assistant chef position.
Alright!
Assistant chef is online!
Let’s go et him!
He walked over and said with a smile, "Hello, I’m the owner of this store, my na is Huang Tao, and you must be Xu Hao?"
Xu Hao was a bit stunned, he didn’t expect the owner of this store to be such a young and handso guy.
And the kind of handso that leaves people speechless!
In front of such looks, Xu Hao, who prided himself on being suave and handso, had no choice but to admit defeat.
He collected himself, and politely replied, "Hello, Boss Huang, I’m Xu Hao, here to apply for the assistant chef position."
"Did you bring all your docunts?"
"Got them all..."
As they talked, he placed the shoulder bag that was slung diagonally over his shoulder on a table beside him, unzipped it, took out a pile of docunts, and handed them to Huang Tao, "These are my health certificate, ID card..."
"Okay... you can have a seat too..."
Huang Tao took the various docunts Xu Hao handed him, then sat down at a table, and gestured to the chair beside him, indicating Xu Hao should sit down.
After speaking, he started to carefully look through them.
Although he had so understanding of Xu Hao’s situation from the recruitnt platform.
But you have to look at docunts very carefully, can’t be careless~
Xu Hao is 22 years old this year, an outstanding student about to graduate from the city’s culinary school.
The energetic young man writes his youth with hard work and diligence, and explains youth with independence and persistence.
At school, his cooking skills are quite good, and his skills in slicing and carving are truly exceptional, earning high praise from the school leaders.
In last year’s city cooking skill competition, his skillful carving won unanimous praise from the expert committee of the city cooking association.
This resu, I can’t deny, is quite outstanding.
Although Xu Hao has no work experience, he is a bona fide excellent student from a culinary school, with this resu, becoming an assistant chef is more than sufficient.
eting application requirents!
Having looked at the resu, Huang Tao was satisfied with Xu Hao’s resu.
Of course~
Huang Tao was also curious, despite Xu Hao being in an internship phase right now, why would such a remarkable Xu Hao co to this small place to apply?
He couldn’t help but curiously ask, "Unless I’m mistaken, generally culinary schools would arrange internship hotels for upcoming graduates, right? For soone as excellent as you, there must be tons of hotels extending an olive branch inviting you for internships, right?"
"Yes, indeed there were, but I turned them down!"
Huang Tao asked curiously, "Oh... Why?"
"No reason, I just simply didn’t want to go."
"Then why did you co to apply here at my place?"
"To... be closer to soone." The corners of Xu Hao’s mouth couldn’t help but show a sweet curve.
To be closer to soone?
Huang Tao naturally wouldn’t be narcissistic enough to think Xu Hao ca because of him.
Seeing Xu Hao’s small expression of sweetness as he thought of soone, Huang Tao understood.
Alright!
That soone must be a girl.
She might even be a girlfriend!
Ah...
Being young is so good~
Huang Tao sighed slightly to himself and smiled handing back Xu Hao’s docunts, "I’m quite satisfied with your qualifications, now you can try out your skills in the kitchen first!"
"Alright!"
Xu Hao nodded and asked again, "Boss, what dish would you like to make?"
"Just make whatever you’re best at."
Xu Hao took a set of chef’s attire, put it on, and followed Huang Tao to the back kitchen.
In the brine pot, pig trotters were being prepared for the afternoon sale, a dish that had to be available every afternoon.
Xu Hao saw the pig trotters being prepared in the brine pot, just from slling that irresistible aroma, with his few years of culinary skill, this pot of brine was simply the pinnacle!
Wowowow~
Who would’ve thought, who would’ve thought, that such an ordinary small shop that he would normally pass by without a second glance was actually hiding such talent!
Huang Tao didn’t have a clue about Xu Hao’s thoughts, he pointed towards the ingredients, "All the ingredients are over here, pick whatever you like..."
"Sure!"
Xu Hao started choosing the ingredients he needed.
Honestly, the selection of ingredients was too simple, with not many varieties for him to pick from.
But luckily, the quality of these ingredients was quite good, and all very fresh.
After all, the taste of a dish is really related to the quality of the ingredients, good ingredients, and the taste of the dish would be elevated.
It was clear, the owner held high standards regarding the ingredients.
Not easy!
A conscientious rchant!
Initially thinking the ingredients in such a small restaurant would be subpar, he imdiately knew he was completely wrong.
Now, he gained a whole new understanding and a qualitative enhancent of goodwill towards this small restaurant.
Also, he had a bit more respect for the owner, Huang Tao.
Due to the limited ingredients, Xu Hao decided to stir-fry a simple homade dish.
Stir-fried pork slices with mushrooms!
Huang Tao watched as Xu Hao took out pork, mushrooms, and green onions, washed them cleanly, sliced the pork and mushrooms, and cut the green onions into sections. The pork slices were mixed with cornstarch, salt, cooking wine, and marinated evenly.
From Xu Hao’s knife skills, it was evident that his fundantals were indeed solid.
Very quickly.
A dish of aromatic, visually pleasing stir-fried pork slices with mushrooms was ready.
Xu Hao put it on a plate, handed it over to Huang Tao, and made a gesture of invitation, "Boss, please taste."
Huang Tao picked up chopsticks and tasted a bite.
The taste was good!
"The oyster sauce and cooking wine were used a bit too much, just a couple of drops before removing from heat would do, the pork was a bit overcooked, not tender enough, but overall the taste is good."
After tasting a bite, Huang Tao imdiately spotted so minor flaws in the stir-fried pork slices with mushrooms.
Wow~
It turns out soone can indeed pick out the flavors of various seasonings with just one bite, this must be the so-called golden tongue?!
Xu Hao’s eyes unintentionally widened upon hearing Huang Tao’s assessnt. Sowhat surprised, he asked, "Boss, can your tongue actually taste the flavors of seasonings?"
"Hmm?"
Seeing Xu Hao’s slightly surprised expression, Huang Tao also realized that his tongue might not be ordinary either!
Probably got spoiled by the system!
"Congratulations, you’re hired. You can start working tomorrow, usually at 5 AM."
"Alright, thank you, boss, for giving this opportunity."
Xu Hao readily agreed, thought for a mont, and then said, "However, boss, can I have a small request?"
"Let’s hear it!"
Huang Tao had a look of "if it’s within reason, I’ll agree" on his face.
"It’s just after business hours end, I’d like to use the kitchen to cook."
"If you want to practice cooking skills in the kitchen, that’s no problem!"
"It’s not for practicing cooking skills, I just simply want to cook a dish, and then..." Xu Hao hesitated to speak.
Huang Tao thought for a mont, then brightly teased, "Is it sothing you want to give soone to eat?"
Xu Hao didn’t deny it, his face donned a "boss, you can think of it that way" expression, "Boss, rest assured, I’ll pay for every use."
Huang Tao chuckled, "Go ahead, no need to pay."
"Huh..."
Xu Hao looked surprised, he didn’t expect the boss to be so accommodating.
He expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, boss. I’ll work hard. Since I don’t have anything else to do today, how about I stay in the shop to help out and get familiar with the environnt, is that okay with you?"
"Suit yourself... we’ll sign an employnt contract shortly."
With that said, Huang Tao went out for a while, heading to a nearby printing shop, returned with 4 copies of the employnt contract.
Together with Xu Hao and Ding Suqin, they all signed these employnt contracts.
Just upon signing.
A cold system prompt sounded in his mind.
