Starting from winning the food competition

Chapter 139 Here Comes
"Master Lin, can I still choose the five-star set menu when I come over tomorrow?"

At 4:40 p.m., Lin Beiyang was resting.

Just as he was about to cook dinner for the two of them at night, a message came in.

Looking at the content of the message, he couldn't help but smile.

Originally, it was enough to prepare two extra sets. Who would have thought that some people would choose to come to taste tomorrow when both set meals were reserved. To be honest, it was very surprising.

After thinking about it in a blink of an eye, it is understandable.

After thinking about it, he replied: "Someone has already sent a message in advance saying that they will come to taste the five-star set meal at around 11:[-] noon tomorrow. If you choose to come over at noon tomorrow, it may be sold out, and you can only choose the two-star set meal by then. .”

The message was sent out, but there was no response for a long time.

Lin Beiyang went to prepare dinner first.

"Xiao Nan, it's time to eat."

"Here we come, brother."

During the meal, Lin Beiyang had time to check if there was any reply.

I saw this person reply: "Master Lin, we still hope to eat the five-star set meal. I don't know if there will be time and opportunity in the future. If so, we will come again."

It seems that they still want to choose five stars instead of two stars.

Immediately replied: "Of course, there will still be five-star packages later, just come over when the time comes, you can come around 11 o'clock, I can't guarantee if you come late."

"Okay, then we'll come over the day after tomorrow."

After replying to the message, Lin Beiyang handed the phone to Lin Nanyun after a glance and nothing else.

"Xiao Nan, let's take a look. It seems that the five-star package is still very popular. The decision to launch it together is no problem."

Hearing this, Lin Nanyun took the phone over and took a closer look, and found that it was exactly as Lin Beiyang said, and some guests were willing to taste the five-star set meal.

After reading it, she smiled again and said, "Brother, it seems to be the case. If this is the case, then should we increase the number of packages?"

Seeing that the re-launch of the five-star set meal has such an effect, Lin Nanyun suggested whether to increase the number of five-star set meals cooked every day.

Hearing this proposal, Lin Beiyang thought for a while, then shook his head.

"Forget it, let's not increase the number of five-star meals cooked every day."

Lin Beiyang rejected Lin Nanyun's proposal.

To be honest, as far as the current situation is concerned, there is actually no problem in adding a five-star set meal that needs to be cooked every day.

After all, judging from the current situation, there will be no problems after the increase.

It can also bring a lot of passenger flow to the restaurant, which is obvious.

But Lin Beiyang refused after careful consideration.

Then he explained: "Xiao Nan, I know what you are thinking. There is nothing wrong with increasing the number of five-star packages in restaurants. After all, judging from the current situation, five-star packages are very popular. It can bring a lot of popularity to the restaurant, and at the same time, there is no need to worry about the situation that it will not be sold. Generally speaking, there will be no problem in launching it.”

"However, our hotel is currently focusing on two-star packages. Five-star packages are not included in the main range. They can be launched together with two-star packages, but there is no need to grab the limelight of two-star packages, and there is no need to occupy more weight in terms of quantity. , in short, as far as the current situation is concerned, the number of two-star packages must be the main one, and the number of five-star packages can be changed according to some circumstances."

"It's not too late to increase the number of five-star set menus when the business in the restaurant is better and the popularity is higher."

The two-star set meal has just been launched, the price is lower, and the taste is better than that of other ordinary restaurants.

For this ordinary person, such a taste and price are just within the acceptable range, and it is actually the best choice.

Even if the five-star set meal tastes better, it is nothing more than a shock to most people.

Can't believe there are such delicious dishes.

But in terms of price, it is even more difficult to be accepted. Now it seems that many people like the five-star package, but it is only short-lived.

The situation will be different later, so it is better to set more two-star packages, and relatively fewer five-star packages, there is no problem.

You can make adjustments according to the actual situation later.

Anyway, don't be too anxious right now.

Hearing Lin Beiyang's plan for the number of two packages, Lin Nanyun nodded.

"Brother, it's because my thinking is too simple. I only think about the current situation and forget about the overall situation later. Just like what you said, two copies may be launched now, four copies will be launched, and there will be a lot of customers. Willing to pay the bill and choose the five-star package for tasting.”

"As time goes by, more people will choose two-star packages for tasting, so the number of people who taste five-star packages will drop sharply. If there are too many packages launched, it is very likely that there will be unsold packages. Condition."

"Although the two of us can eat by ourselves, it will definitely have some impact on the restaurant if the number of times increases, so plan it according to the current situation."

"Okay, so be it."

In the evening, the remaining set meals were still sold out very quickly.

When the two-star package was launched for the first time yesterday, there were a total of 20 copies, and they were all sold out before 6 pm.

A total of 18 copies were launched today, and they were just sold out at 7:[-] pm.

The speed is slower than last night.

It stands to reason that fewer set meals should be faster, but because Liu Feng brought six people over to taste yesterday, there will be more choices in the number of set meals, and the consumption will be faster.

There is no such thing as a big client today.

At most, 4 people come to eat together.

And when I came to eat, it was slower than yesterday, so the overall sales of the set meals today were slower.

It can also be seen that the number of packages needs to be reduced.

When it is first launched, it will be very fresh to the guests.

Naturally, more people are willing to come and taste it to see what kind of taste it is.

Over time, customers who want to taste the taste of the two-star set menu have basically tasted it.

I already know what kind of taste it is in my heart, and it will take at least a few days or a period of time before I want to taste it next time.

In this way, when you come to the back, you may need to rely on new customers to maintain the sales of the package.

However, compared to old customers, the acceptance of new customers will be lower.

Then the reduction in the number of packages has become a matter of course.

For Lin Beiyang, the restaurant's reputation is not big enough now.

Although many people have been invited to help promote it, or let them mention a word or two to their friends.

Let them know there is such a restaurant here.

Even so, it is impossible to have a steady flow of customers every day.

It's one thing that they'll help with a recommendation, it's another thing that the guest is willing to accept the tasting.

Another possibility is that they will be more active when helping to recommend in the early stage, because he has never tasted such a set meal.

Would love to share it with others.

But as time goes by, you may not pay special attention to promotion.

Then the number of recommended people will also show a downward trend, which is obvious.

This has happened to Liu Qingfeng, the head chef of the previous restaurant and other chefs.

For example, at the very beginning, they will be very active in helping to make recommendations.

However, with the recent period of time, the communication has gradually decreased, and their recommendations will also decrease.

For example, those who have a good relationship subconsciously reduce their recommendations, let alone other guests.

At most, I will help to recommend two or three days.

They also have other more important things to be busy with. When they are busy, they basically forget about the things they want to help promote.

Especially the longer the time, the greater the possibility of forgetting.

Therefore, it is still necessary to rely on the promotion of the dishes themselves to make the restaurant itself more and more famous.

At that time, even if you don't need to promote it yourself, more people will know about the hotel's situation.

That would certainly be much better than the current situation.

Time soon came to noon the next day.

According to the arrangement, there are 12 two-star packages and 5 five-star packages today, totaling 17 packages.

Among them, 5 five-star packages have already been reserved by 5 people according to yesterday's situation.

If there is no accident, they should come to the restaurant for dinner earlier today.

As for the two-star package, there is currently no reservation.

It is not so much that there is no appointment, it is not because Lin Beiyang does not accept appointments, so this situation did not happen.

In fact, someone asked yesterday if we could make an appointment for a two-star package today.

Because they may come late, I am worried that there will be no remaining packages to choose after they come.

In this regard, Lin Beiyang can only answer that they should come to the restaurant to eat earlier, and there is no way to make an appointment.

At 10:58, the first guest of the hotel arrived.

In fact, there were three of these guests.

These three people were the family of three who had dinner in the restaurant yesterday.

They chose the two-star set meal yesterday. After tasting the taste of the two-star set meal, they felt that the taste was very good, and they wanted to continue to taste the five-star set meal.

It is also because of the reminders of these three people that Lin Beiyang started to launch the five-star package later.

It was also at this time that the two packages were launched together.

Nothing like this has happened before.

And they came here for the five-star package today.

Seeing that there were still 2 minutes left, Lin Beiyang still didn't let them come in early.

You still have to wait until 11 o'clock sharp before you can enter the hotel.

Just 1 minute later, two more guests came to the door of the hotel.

Seeing that there was no opening time yet, one of them asked, "Master Lin, isn't it opening time yet? I think it's already 11 o'clock."

Hearing this, Lin Beiyang took out his mobile phone and looked at it, smiled and said, "I'm sorry, anyway, the business hours inside will be strictly in accordance with the time. The current time is 10:59, and there is still a long time before the official opening at 11 o'clock." For 1 minute, I have no choice but to trouble a few people to wait at the door, and I will naturally open the door to welcome you in 1 minute."

Hearing that they couldn't accommodate for a minute, the five people didn't have any ideas.

In fact, they also know the rules of Lin Beiyang Hotel, so there is no problem with it.

If it is possible to enter in advance, then there will definitely be more guests rushing over after 10 o'clock.

In this way, many customers will worry that if they come late, there will be no remaining set meals to taste.

It will also gradually advance the time of coming to eat.

In this way, everyone will scramble to advance the time, which will definitely have a huge impact on the normal operation of the restaurant.

In order to avoid such things from happening, 11 o'clock is 11 o'clock, even if it is 1 minute, it will not be advanced strictly according to the opening time.

"Okay, Master Lin, let's wait outside for a minute."

It was said to be 1 minute, and the time came to 20 o'clock on time after more than 11 seconds, and the sound of reminding the door to open also sounded in the restaurant.

In order to be able to open the door accurately, there is a clock in the restaurant, which can accurately inform the opening time.

Regardless of whether there are guests or not, the sound of the clock anyway means that it is time to open for business.

"Okay, please let the five of you enter the restaurant."

After hearing this voice, five people entered the hotel at one time.

After they entered the restaurant, Lin Beiyang said to Lin Nanyun, "Xiao Nan, go and entertain these two guests, and I will entertain the three of them."

"Okay bro."

Then Lin Beiyang began to entertain the family of three.

According to the order in which they arrived at the hotel, the three of them arrived one minute earlier than the other two.

Although it was only 1 minute, they came to the restaurant a little earlier than the other two, so according to the order of cooking, they must have priority over the other two.

So Lin Beiyang is responsible for receiving the three of them,
Lin Nanyun was in charge of receiving the other two.

"" The three of you are going to taste the five-star set meal today, right? "

Lin Beiyang asked with a smile.

The middle-aged man nodded: "Master Lin, we came here specially for the five-star set meal today. There are three of us in total. Please cook it as soon as possible. They all want to taste what kind of taste and magic power the five-star set meal has?"

Hearing this, Lin Beiyang nodded slightly.

"Okay, then I will trouble you three to wait patiently for a while, and I will cook three five-star set meals for the three of you. The price of each set is 188 yuan."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man understood what it meant.

Then paid for 3 five-star packages.

Then, Lin Beiyang gave him the number 1, 2, 3, and pick-up plates.

"Okay, this is your order board, please wait a moment."

"Good."

On Lin Nanyun's side, these two people are being received.

He also asked directly: "Both of you, you are also here today for the five-star set meal. There is no problem with that. It just so happens that there are still two five-star set meals left in the hotel."

Hearing this sentence, the two of them were still a little surprised.

They originally thought that these three people should come for the two-star package.

But I never expected to choose the five-star package like myself.

And the number of five-star packages is not too many, exactly two.

Looks like they came just in time.

However, what they don't know is that there should actually be 5 five-star packages today, but the publicity is two.

Because three of the set meals have been reserved for the family of three.

Just say I don't know.

For others, naturally they don't know what the actual situation is like.

"Yes, we came here today just for the five-star set menu, please cook two."

"sure no problem."

Then after they paid two sets of 188 yuan, they got the No. 4 and No. 5 pick-up plates.

It seems that you need to wait for a while.
