Chapter 5 The gluttonous feast
Yanxi called the waiter over and asked, "Can I return two peanuts and change the drink?"
"I'm sorry, the peanuts are ready and will be here soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, a pot of peanuts and a pot of cucumbers came in.
"Why do you order so many cold dishes?" Hua Mo frowned, her eyelids stretched even deeper.
"There's nothing wrong with it, I'm just as good as this one, my uncle ordered it well." The uncle actually praised him.
"The cold dishes relieve the greasy, we can eat more." He made an excuse, then turned to continue to ask the waiter, "The vegetarian leg of lamb rice is not ready yet, right? Give me back a portion and replace it with..."
He didn't say a word about the drink, and a large bowl of rice was brought in.
"Why is the staple food served now?" Hua Mo asked suspiciously.
"Our back kitchen is very efficient, and the speed of serving food has always been among the top three in the imperial capital." The waiter boasted proudly.
"Then return a vegetarian abalone head office?" He directly started to start with hard dishes.
"Sorry, the vegetarian abalone is already cooking, and it will be ready in a minute." The waiter miscalculated his calculations again.
"Then which dish can I return?" He asked the waiter angrily.
"I'm sorry, our store promises that it won't take more than 10 minutes from the time the order is placed to the delivery, and now there are 3 minutes left, and we will finish the delivery as soon as possible." The waiter really said a lot.
"Why withdraw those, why don't you just order a drink?" Hua Mo hit him directly.
"Daughter-in-law, don't ask if you can listen to me about this matter." After responding to Hua Mo, he turned his attention to the waiter again, "Do you always have white water here?"
"I have some, I'll bring them here for you. I'm sorry, I was busy serving the food and forgot the water." The waiter tapped his head lightly and backed out.
Great, it seems that the problem has been solved, he leaned back in the chair beautifully, and said: "Children still drink water to be healthy, uncle, it's rare to come to the imperial capital, don't be too polite, eat more."
The uncle looked at the table full of dishes, and asked curiously, "Grandfather, why do you order so many of these? Are you always serving double servings?"
The uncle has a little northeast accent, and the word "double" is still pronounced four times, which sounds very friendly.
"Uncle, this is called Double Happiness. This is a popular way of ordering in the imperial capital. If we want to eat boiled mutton, we will all order it. Don't worry, eat slowly. If you can't finish it, you can take it away." The lie made up this time was so realistic that even I believed it.
"Grandpa's warm hospitality, I must eat more."
Although there are [-] servings of peanuts, it is estimated that one serving is a small dish, which is not much in a pot. The uncle ate it while chatting and chewing.
The same is true for cucumbers. It is estimated that one cucumber can make five servings. Pearl eats half by herself, and Huamo eats the other half.
"Don't just eat cold dishes, this lobster and king crab are the signature dishes, eat more." He was rambling, afraid that the most expensive dishes would be left behind.
The two vegetarian lobsters in front of me are really well done. There is a real lobster head in front of the plate, and there are pieces of mushroom meat neatly arranged in the back. It tastes as chewy as real shrimp.
The vegetarian king crab is also amazing. The mycelium is beaten into crab sticks and steamed in the crab claws. The feeling of melting in the mouth is completely comparable to the freshest and tenderest crab meat.
"Come, come, let's have a drink. Uncle is welcome to come to the capital often." He picked up the wine glass, which contained the [-] bottles of red wine.
Hua Mo and uncle clinked glasses with him, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"This wine is weak and bitter, uncle, you can drink the rest, I'm not used to it." The uncle still likes the straightforward liquor.
"Yanxi, tomorrow weekend, let's take uncle to go shopping." Hua Mo suggested.
"No problem, it's on me." He sold out the US stocks last night, and the cost of [-] became [-], and now he is full of confidence.
With the unremitting efforts of him and his uncle, there was nothing left except some rice.
"Waiter, pack." He arranged.
"Sir, the takeaway box is five yuan each." The waiter reminded.
"So expensive? No plastic bags? The free ones."
"Uh, well, let me look for it for you."
The waiter went out to find a plastic bag, Hua Mo looked a little displeased, and said, "If you can't finish eating, don't ask for it, what kind of plastic bag do you need, it's really embarrassing."
"Don't waste it, there is still so much food, I can eat two or three meals in my hometown, my uncle is fine." The uncle still spoke for him.
According to his request, the waiter packed the leftover rice into two plastic bags and asked, "Sir, do you want to pay now?"
"That's right." He confidently waited for 9999's offer.
"Hello, the total consumption is 11498 yuan."
"What the hell? Isn't it 9999?" He said in surprise.
"Why is it so expensive, Mo'er, it's too wasteful for you to pay uncle to eat so much money." Uncle was shocked when he heard that it was more than 1 yuan.
And the bill was obviously beyond Hua Mo's expectations, she stared at Yan Xi sharply, and asked, "Check the receipt carefully to see if there is a mistake in the calculation."
"Yes, take a closer look and see if you took it wrong. Didn't we finish the calculation before and get the full 9999? Why are you still taking it?" He asked the waiter in disbelief.
"Sir, it's like this. Our restaurant will charge a 15.00% service fee. Your meal costs 9999 yuan, plus the service fee is a total of 11498.85 yuan. We even wiped off the [-] cents for you." The waiter explained.
It’s embarrassing to mention [-] cents, why not [-] cents? Why didn’t you say there is a service charge when you ordered the food? If it explodes on the spot, who dares to come to your restaurant to eat.
His heart was surging, and he had to think of a solution quickly, so he knocked on the table angrily and said, "What service fee do you want? What service fee do you want? We sit here, what else do you serve besides serving food? Did you drink with me, or Feed me? Huh? I can warn you, if you dare to charge this service fee, I guarantee that your store will regret it forever!"
His so-called regret was that after he exploded, no customers dared to come to this store, but the waiter thought of another thing when he heard this sentence.
She sneaked aside and picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Brother Zhang, come quickly, I suspect that this table is a customer with a background, and they are questioning our service fee."
In less than half a minute, a man who looked like a foreman entered the private room. The waiter whispered a few words to him, but the whisper was not small, and Yanxi could hear clearly: "Brother Zhang, that's the man, dressed in ordinary clothes. , but the dishes are very generous, can’t it be the leader somewhere? He also said that if we charge a service fee, we will make our shop regret it for the rest of our lives.”
The foreman asked, "How much did they eat?"
"I ordered nearly 1 yuan of dishes."
"Okay, you go out." The foreman dismissed the waiter, bowed and said, "Hi, I am the manager of our store. Our waiter didn't explain clearly just now, and the service fee is not mandatory. , if you can become a member, you can enjoy all the services of this store for free."
"Okay, what should this member do?"
"You can become a member immediately by recharging [-] yuan."
