Chapter 521 Australian goods

"Sir, your food is ready."

The waiter put the dishes in front of Feinan and whispered.

Looking at the dishes on the table, Feinan asked doubtfully, "Is the dish wrong? I didn't order this sirloin steak."

"It is so, sir."

The waiter smiled and explained: "Due to the mistakes of our catering department, the quality of the sirloin steak you ate yesterday was slightly poor."

"Because your check-in information is confidential, our catering department was unable to contact you, and we failed to apologize to you in time."

"It's our honor for you to choose our Dragon and Phoenix Hall again today regardless of past suspicions."

"So, Mr. Xue Ming, the head chef of our Dragon and Phoenix Hall, specially cooked a new sirloin steak, hoping to make up for the unpleasant experience caused to you."

After listening to the waiter's explanation, Feinan suddenly realized, and then nodded with a smile: "Thank you, you guys have a heart."

He didn't expect that the food and beverage department of this restaurant would be so good, because he didn't finish eating the steak yesterday, so he specially made a new one for him today.

No wonder people have been driving it for more than 100 years. Paying attention to user experience can really improve the favorability!

Xing Ran cut the steak into small pieces and put it in the center for Xiaobai and Huanhuan to eat with a fork. Feinan also picked up the chopsticks, picked up a section, and put it in his mouth.

After chewing it twice, Feinan looked calm, but after swallowing, he still put down his chopsticks.

Picking up the wine glass and taking a sip of the wine, he pushed the plate in front of Xiao Bai: "Eat more."

After the waiter backed away, he stood aside and watched, but he didn't notice that the round-faced chef also came to the restaurant.

"Which guest is it?"

He asked curiously.

When the waiter found out that it was him, he pointed in Feinan's direction.

"Yo! So tall?"

The round-faced chef was startled by Feinan's size, and then looked at his hand, only to find that he was not eating steak, but the bald boy next to him was eating a piece of steak with a fork, eating it deliciously.

"Why doesn't he eat?"

The round-faced chef was puzzled.

"How do I know? He only took one bite yesterday. Maybe people don't like steak?"

The waiter curled his lips and said, "Okay! I'll pay the compensation to others. It's their business whether to eat or not. What do you want to do?"

"That's not what it says."

Another voice appeared behind him. The waiter looked back and hurriedly said hello: "Master Xue, why are you here?"

Xue Ming folded his hands behind his back, looked in Feinan's direction, frowned slightly and said, "The compensation is all paid, if people don't appreciate it, isn't the compensation in vain?"

The round-faced chef asked in a low voice: "Isn't that kid delicious? Maybe he thinks it's too delicious, so he doesn't want to eat it, so he can save it for the kid?"

Xue Ming squinted at him: "Can you come here to eat, and save money?"

Seeing that he kept his mouth shut, Xue Ming said, "A qualified chef can tell the taste of a guest from the moment he orders it."

"If he didn't like steak, would he order three at once yesterday?"

"If he doesn't know how to eat steak, he will order filet for two children?"

"He stopped eating after only one bite, which shows that he is still not satisfied, and the steak did not meet his requirements."

"Then what should we do?"

The round-faced chef sighed and said, "We have done what we wanted, but he is still not satisfied, so what can we do?"

It's hard for him to say that Xue Ming made the steak, but Xue Ming also understands what he means.

"I'll go talk to him."

Xue Ming didn't say much, but just walked in Feinan's direction.

"Hello sir."

Xue Ming stepped forward and greeted Feinan politely.

Feinan found him through the map when he first came, but he didn't know what he wanted to do.

"Hello, what's the matter?"

Feinan wiped his mouth with a napkin.

"I'm the head chef of Dragon Phoenix Hall, my name is Xue Ming."

Xue Ming smiled and asked, "Are you satisfied with today's dishes?"

"good."

Feinan nodded: "The grouper is very fresh, and the shrimp is well cooked, very crisp."

He briefly commented that the seafood here is really good.

But a good evaluation is obviously not enough to satisfy Xue Ming.

Feinan didn't comment on the steak, so Xue Ming took the initiative to ask, "Yesterday's steak didn't satisfy you. How do you feel about today's steak?"

Feinan hesitated for a while, then nodded and said, "Fortunately, it's pretty good."

This perfunctory remark convinced Xue Ming that he was indeed not very satisfied with the steak.

"Sorry, I couldn't bring you a good dining experience."

Xue Ming bowed slightly to apologize, and then asked sincerely: "We hope to provide all guests with the highest quality meals. From your point of view, is there anything that can be improved in this sirloin steak? I hope you will be generous. Teach me."

After sizing him up, Feinan suddenly smiled and said, "Don't stand up and talk, please sit down!"

"thanks.."

Xue Ming thanked him and sat down.

"Bring me another glass, please."

Fei Nanchong greeted the waiter, and then said casually: "Actually, your dish is quite good, it's quite authentic, it's just that my mouth is a bit tricky."

"You are humble."

Xue Ming asked seriously: "What do you think is the problem?"

"Small problem, the beef is a bit off."

Feinan motioned for the waiter who had taken the glass to pour Xue Ming a glass of wine, and said casually, "Just replace the beef."

Xue Ming was taken aback, is the beef problem still a small problem?If there is a problem with the beef, does that mean there is a problem with the whole dish?

"Should you use Australian products?" Feinan looked at him and asked.

"expert."

Xue Ming nodded, and then asked: "But Australian products are also very good? The meat is very tender, very fat, and very fragrant."

"But it's too fat!"

Feinan picked up a piece of steak and explained: "I like to eat fatter steak, so I ordered sirloin, but I thought you used grass-fed beef here."

"But after I tasted it, I found out that you are using grain-fed cattle."

"Grain-fed beef has enough meat and a large amount of oil, so it will be more tender, but the meat flavor is not as strong as that of grass-fed beef."

"And its fat is not distributed like snowflakes like Wagyu, so the taste of the lean meat will be a little hard, so I don't like it too much."

Hearing Feinan's explanation, Xue Ming looked a little embarrassed, because Feinan did hit the point.

"This...is still a matter of cost."

Xue Ming explained: "Since the mad cow disease outbreak in Europe last year, a lot of beef has been destroyed, the supply of goods has decreased, and the import price of beef has become more and more expensive."

"Australia has the most imported beef on the market now, but the price has doubled compared to previous years."

"Grass-fed cattle have a long breeding cycle, and the price is more expensive. Restaurants get less, and they are all supplied to Huamao Pavilion. Dragon and Phoenix Hall uses grain-fed cattle."

After a pause, Xue Ming couldn't help but said with emotion: "No one has tasted it before. You really know how to eat it. I can't hide it from you."

"It doesn't matter, the price you charge is also the price of grain-fed cattle. It's not a scam, it's just that I'm not used to it."

Feinan smiled and comforted him, looking easy to talk to.

The reason why he talked so much with Xue Ming was because he wanted to use him to wander around the back kitchen to find a special place.

Otherwise, he would have to sneak in sneaking in with Xiao Bai in the middle of the night, which is simpler and more aboveboard.
