Chapter 494 Jade Dew Frost(1/2)

It’s really thanks to “Zhang Dashao”!

Under his guidance, Ning Weimin got soup stock noodles and old noodles one after another, all of which were amazing.

For the catering industry, it is a guaranteed tool to make money.

This undoubtedly further strengthened Ning Weimin's sense of expectation for the other two promises of "Zhang Dashao".

I believe that the menu compiled by "Zhang Dashao" must also be outstanding, and the person who introduces him must also be extraordinary.

It has to be said that Ning Weimin's intuition is quite correct.

What does it mean to be an expert? That means you never make mistakes.

A few days later, when the weekend came again, the menu handed over by "Zhang Dashao" really lived up to his expectations.

It gave Ning Weimin a new perspective and received a big surprise.

When it comes to the highlights of this menu, or its unique advantages, there are three main points.

First of all, the menu of "Zhang Dashao" is not like Beihai Fangshan or Tingli Restaurant.

The restaurant has a nice name and specializes in luxurious dishes. It is a feast for the eyes with delicacies from the mountains and sea.

I am afraid that the banquet and the names of the dishes are not impressive and unlucky.

The old man’s menu is almost based on the ingredients’ real names.

Therefore, the taste and ingredients are basically distinguishable, and it looks quite plain.

However, there are many dishes that should be fresh.

This was all something Ning Weimin had never known before, and it looked quite fresh.

Secondly, the menu ordered by the old man is not static, but changes according to the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter.

At what time of the year, what should you eat, the combination of meat and vegetables, and the complementary meals.

This is not only good for people's appetite, but also good for people's health. It is quite scientific.

As for the production cost, the old man also made a distinction between high and low according to today's prices.

This gives customers one more choice, allowing them to be more frugal.

There is one last thing, and that is the word "whole".

This "complete" does not reflect the complete range of delicacies from mountains and seas, nor does it reflect the comprehensive range of various cooking techniques.

It is reflected in the complete program and categories of dishes.

The menu given by the old man is in addition to the dried fruits, fresh fruits, candied fruits, cold dishes, hot stir-fried dishes, large dishes, and pasta that are usually included in banquets.

Additional content related to tea drinks, tea food, hanging stove barbecue, fried goods, pastries, porridge, snacks, desserts, side dishes, and even special specialty foods has been added.

It can be said that the menu listed by the old man is the most comprehensive menu that Ning Weimin has ever seen in his life.

Although it is not a Manchu-Han banquet, in terms of the pomp that highlights the palace flavor and official seats, it is obviously better than the Manchu-Han banquet in ordinary people's concept.

For example, the summer banquet is in season.

I have to admit that even if I just look at this summer menu, I can already appreciate the advantages analyzed earlier.

Let me start by saying that this level is distinct.

From the names of the dishes, you can clearly see the changes and differences in the quality of the dishes at each level.

Moreover, among the three levels of banquets, only the lowest level of casual banquets can match the number of dishes and the program of Fangshan Restaurant and Tingli Restaurant.

The advantage of this is that, first, it makes it easier for customers to make choices based on their own needs.

Second, it also means that if you really want to sell the official seats, the price will at least double as the casual seats.

Even if the unit price of Ning Weimin's dishes is lower, the price of an official table can easily exceed that of Fangshan Restaurant and Tingli Restaurant.

What's more, there is an important difference between official seats and casual seats that needs no explanation.

It’s just that the portions of the dishes served at the official banquet are small, so one person can only try one bite. Otherwise, there will definitely be too many dishes to finish.

This means that, excluding rare ingredients, the cost of an official banquet is actually not much higher than that of a casual banquet.

This is very convenient for making huge profits, which is exactly what Ning Weimin wants.

In addition, judging from the content of the dishes, such a menu is quite attractive.

There are no auspicious dish names like "Phoenix wearing golden clothes", "Phoenix lying on its nest", "Songs and cranes prolonging the year", etc. Instead, you can intuitively see the ingredients and combinations of the dishes.

Originally, people had little appetite in summer because of the hot weather.
