Starting from winning the food competition

Chapter 71 Reservation
Lin Beiyang is willing to accept the guests' opinions or ideas.

Whether it's good advice, bad advice, or advice in general, it's a good idea to listen first.

If the suggestion is good, you can agree to it and use it in the restaurant.

If the suggestion is not very good, you can also tactfully refuse it from the side. If someone is willing to make a suggestion, at least it means that you are satisfied with the majority of the hotel.

They were relatively satisfied with the hotel, and if they really had a good suggestion, they could naturally adopt it.

"That's it. You see, I'm a loyal customer of the restaurant now, and I can confirm that I will come for dinner tomorrow. Boss, it's no problem if you want to specify the number of set meals for tomorrow. It's just that you can enable a reservation function."

"For example, there will still be a total of [-] sets of packages tomorrow. If I order two sets, then you only need to sell thirteen sets. Going out, since it is an appointment, then pay the deposit in advance, this cannot be breached and refunded, and it can also guarantee the rights and interests of the hotel."

Hearing this, Lin Beiyang smiled.

In fact, he probably guessed the possible suggestion just now, which is to open the appointment function.

For example, in five-star hotels or high-end restaurants, there will be ways to make reservations.

Anyway, it is to make an appointment one to three days in advance. After the appointment is successful, you can go to eat within the reserved time.

Basically there will be.

In fact, Lin Beiyang has also considered it before, because the restaurant sells according to the set meal, so whether it is also possible to open reservations, make reservations a few days in advance, and then just come over for dinner at that time.

After thinking about it carefully, I gave up on this idea.

The first reason that made him give up was fear of trouble.

Like reservations are made in advance.

His is a set meal system, and he must prepare it in advance after making an appointment. If he does not come temporarily, it will cause waste.

As for the non-refundable deposit that can be charged, I also thought of this.

It's just that if someone really has something to do and can't come, the reservation money cannot be refunded.

It doesn't matter if you meet someone who is reasonable. If you meet someone who is unreasonable, it will easily cause conflicts and troubles, which is not a good thing.

Generally speaking, there must be more disadvantages, especially for a different hotel like Lin Beiyang, there may be more situations than expected.

The second reason for not wanting to do it.

It is also a question of whether the number of reservations should or should not be counted in the total.

If it is not counted in the total, once the guests do not come, then this set meal will inevitably be wasted.

If it is included in the total number, it is not known when the guests will arrive.

For example, if you make an appointment between 12:1 noon and [-]:[-] pm, if you encounter a traffic jam, you will definitely arrive later. At this time, you will face a choice, whether to wait or not to wait.

As for the third question.

That is, it is easy to have time conflicts between guests who have made an appointment and guests who have not made an appointment.

At the time just now, the customers who make an appointment are at 12:12, in case the business in the store is very good at [-]:[-], there are already many customers who are queuing up to make orders.

Then, should we wait until the orders of these customers are finished before continuing to make orders, or do we intersperse them in the middle, or prepare them in advance.

This is again a new question.

You can't let the customers who make an appointment wait, but jumping in the line is not very fair to other customers who come to the store to taste.

For example, the number of packages sold every day is not very large, so there are very few conflicts.

But as the business gets better and better, and the reputation gets bigger and bigger, there will be a lot of guests coming to eat, and this will definitely happen by then.

is something to be expected.

After comprehensive consideration, Lin Beiyang simply did not open the appointment service.

After all, he is the only chef here, and he is the only one who can make such dishes. As for other chefs, it can be said that it is very difficult.

Since there is only one chef in the restaurant, it is destined that the number of dishes that can be cooked each time will not be particularly large. It can be said that there are many restrictions.

For example, there are many chefs in restaurants that people can make reservations, and they can be assigned to cook.

Don't worry about this problem.

Shaking his head and laughing: "Sorry, actually I have considered this appointment, but I am not going to make an appointment. After all, I am only a small restaurant here, and there is no other chef besides me, so I still suggest that you can come early tomorrow. come over."

Lin Beiyang finally chose to refuse, and did not say to give them a green light.

As for why they were not given a chance, the reason is very simple. They are still unwilling to set this precedent, otherwise the same thing may happen in the future.

In order to avoid it, it is necessary to deny such a situation from the beginning.

"That's it." Hearing that Lin Beiyang refused again, the man didn't continue.

Still looking a little disappointed.

Tomorrow is a good day, and it must be worrying about not being able to achieve the desired result.

If you come late, or the business is good at noon, it is very likely that there will be no set meals at night.

Wouldn't it be a waste of a trip.

This is not the most important thing. If you miss other restaurants, it is easy to turn a happy time into an unhappy time.

This is the scene I don't want to see the most.

But the two also knew that if they could, they wouldn't be rejected consecutively, and it seemed that they really didn't have a reserved chance.

Maybe the two of them didn't expect that even things like making an appointment would be rejected.

In other restaurants, if a guest wants to come to eat, they will be very welcome no matter what, how could they choose to refuse.

The seemingly unremarkable Beiyang Hotel happened to be it.

After hesitating for a moment, the man finally nodded and said: "Okay, since you have nothing to do here, boss, then we won't force it. Anyway, I live in a nearby community, and it won't take more than 15 minutes to walk here. Depart at half past one, and arrive at the hotel at about 5:5, I hope there will be a remaining number of packages by then."

Lin Beiyang smiled slightly and said, "It should be fine then, anyway, come here earlier."

He thought for a moment.

There are only two set meals that have been reserved for tomorrow, that is, the couple. As for other regular customers, they probably won't come.

So at noon, when there are no old customers, there are basically about five to eight sets, which means that after noon, there may still be five set meals left in the evening.

If they come early, they shouldn't have any problems.

This is also the reason why Lin Beiyang did not give them a guarantee, which is full of too many unknowns.

Then the two left the hotel again.
