The more he understood, the more amazed he was. That was why Dominica decided to personally go to China to give this restaurant a rating.
It was an apology.
“It seems that we should indeed go there. Why is head chef Yuan Zhou so famous? he is even more famous than head chef Chu Xiao in China, but not famous outside, especially in France?” Sylphy asked curiously.
In truth, this curiosity also proved that Sylphy was not at a high enough level. Even Dominica had not reached the top of the pyramid of French cuisine. Augusta, Manfeld, and the others all knew.
Speaking of which, it also indirectly proved that Yuan Zhou’s reputation was indeed not prominent below the top.
“Then you should get ready. We’ll make a trip to China in the next two days to get this matter settled. Master chef Restaurant is such a famous restaurant. If it doesn’t have a Michelin star rating, I think our authority will be questioned.” Dominica felt that this was the best he could do to teach his nephew, so he began to give instructions.
“Alright, manager Dominica. I’ll arrange my schedule immediately.” Sylphy said immediately.
As it was a private matter that delayed the opening time of the restaurant, Yuan Zhou still made up for the time during lunch and dinner as usual.
That night’s dinner was directly extended to three hours. Many diners, who usually couldn’t get in line because of their slow movements, simply had tears in their eyes. They usually didn’t get any points, but today they got some. It was simply a profit.
Everyone was very excited for dinner. Many of them ordered a lot of dishes and ate to their hearts ‘content.
Sylphy was very efficient. Three days later, the uncle and nephew were already standing in Chengdu’s territory.
“Are we going there directly or should we inform the restaurant first?” Sylphy asked.
“I’ve already contacted the Chief Secretary of the China famous chef Alliance. We’ll explain our purpose first before considering anything else.” Dominica said after some thought.
......
This was certainly not the usual star evaluation process, but this time, the status of the head chef was different, so he still deserved this kind of courtesy and respect.
Sylphy nodded and motioned for the three people to arrange the vehicle to set the destination.
This time, other than Sylphy, the other three were all Tokyo.
The ability of the entourage was quite good. The car was arranged very quickly, and they went from the airport to the hotel to rest and dress up. In the afternoon, it was time to visit.
It was already past twoo’ clock when Dominica brought his men to the China famous chef Alliance.
The floor of the hall was so bright that it could reflect a person’s image. An exquisite and beautiful girl was standing at the front desk. When she saw Dominica and his group enter, she greeted them in fluent English.
“Hello, may I know why you’re here at the China famous chef Alliance? do you have an appointment?” The girl at the front desk said with a smile.
“Hello, my surname is Hill. I’ve called before to meet Secretary Xu.” Dominica said directly.
“Alright, please wait a moment.” The front desk girl lowered her head and clicked on the computer a few times. After confirming the appointment time and name on it, she picked up the phone next to her and made a call to explain the situation and received instructions before hanging up.
“Please follow me.” The front desk girl walked out from the curved table and led the way to Dominica and the others.
Dominica nodded slightly and followed behind them all the way to the elevator.
Under the management of Xu ban and the supervision of Yuan Zhou, the China chef’s Association was becoming more and more decent, like an Association of a great country.
Whether it was the layout or the division of departments, as well as the number of employees now, it was no longer the small number of people it used to have.
“Ding!”
The elevator door opened, and a long-haired beauty stood at the door, waiting for Dominica and the others. After greeting each other, she led them all the way to Xu ban’s office, knocked on the door, and led the group in.
“Hello, I’m Hill Dominica, the head of Asia’s food and beverage review headquarters in Michelin. I’m here today to ask Mr. Xu to introduce head chef Yuan of master chef Restaurant to me and tell me about the star evaluation this year.” Dominica was obviously a straightforward person, and he went straight to the point after a few small talk.
Xu ban had only heard that there were people from the Michelin company coming to visit. He really didn’t know that it was because of the star evaluation and that the president was involved.
If he had known, Xu ban would have definitely reported it to his President.
“Please wait a moment, I need to ask the Chairman’s opinion.” Xu ban said.
“Sure, no problem.” “Yes!” Dominica agreed readily.
Sylphy was quite mature when she was outside. At this time, she followed her uncle obediently, sitting and drinking tea whenever she saw him.
When Yuan Zhou received Xu ban’s call, the lunch had just ended. As he had asked for a leave of absence at noon yesterday, the lunch had just ended.
“Are you talking about the Asian director from Michelin?” Yuan Zhou asked curiously.
Although he didn’t think it was worth being proud of an organization that mainly rated France restaurants, because he didn’t think that Chinese dishes should be judged by foreigners, as the chairman of the China chefs ‘union branch, he should do his best to host the place since the manager had come in person.
“Yes, I am.” Xu ban replied.
“I have time now. Ask around. If you have time, you can come over now. If you don’t have time, we’ll meet again.” Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then said.
When Yuan Zhou finished brewing the tea and put it on the table, Dominica and the others followed Xu ban to the master chef Restaurant.
This time, only Dominica and Sylphy were there.
When he arrived at the door, he saw Yuan Zhou standing at the door with a straight posture.
“Hello, nice to meet you. Head chef Yuan, I’m Hill Dominica.” Dominica introduced himself without waiting for Xu ban’s introduction.
“Hello, I’m yuan Zhou.” Yuan Zhou had already become proficient in English and his daily communication was quite fluent.
By the time Yuan Zhou and Dominica had finished their small talk, they had already moved to the stone table in the backyard of the restaurant.
After Sylphy sat down, the drama in her heart never stopped. Master chef Restaurant was really too small in his eyes, which didn’t match Yuan Zhou’s identity at all.
At such a young age, it was inevitable for him to show a little pity on his face, but Dominica was obviously much calmer. Even if he was surprised, he did not show it on his face.
“Is there anything important for you to come to Rong city this time, supervisor Dominica?” Yuan Zhou asked after pouring a cup of tea for each of them.
“What a fragrant tea.” Dominica sighed in admiration before he tried to focus on business. “I’m here to give master chef Restaurant a star rating,”
It was basic professionalism not to indulge in drinking tea before doing proper business.
When Yuan Zhou heard that, he was stunned for a while. Did the supervisor have to be personally involved in the star rating evaluation now?
However, he still had to refuse.
Yuan Zhou said directly,”master chef Restaurant is just a restaurant for eating. I’m just a chef who cooks. There’s no need to give me a star rating.”
They only had one central idea, which was to reject Michelin stars.
