Chapter 310: Takeaway Business
Although the restaurant's promotions ended the next day, the restaurant's novel and delicious food kept diners coming.
When it's time for dinner, the restaurant welcomes customers. With the experience of yesterday's opening, the staff can handle it easily, while the cooks are busy cooking in an orderly manner.
Gu Xiaoyou went to inspect the restaurant several times in time for meals. The waiters and cooks ran the restaurant very well. Sure enough, the trial opening was the right decision.
A few days after it opened, no matter whether it was sunny or rainy, there were always people lining up in front of the restaurants on Anyang Street in Lutan.
Probably because they waited in line for too long, some people noticed the takeout poster in front of the door. Although they heard about the takeout promotion on the first day of opening, they were just trying to be lively and very few people actually ordered takeout.
The first is that they don’t know what takeout is, and the second is that they are worried that the delivered food will not be hot enough when it arrives at home. If something unexpected happens along the way, spilling the food is really not worth the loss.
Diners still maintain a wait-and-see attitude towards takeout.
The guys in the takeout team couldn't help but be a little anxious. In fact, apart from going to the minister's house to deliver food in the morning, they basically had nothing to do. The capital was almost destroyed by them.
The delivery boys are all wearing delivery clothes and waiting for business at the door of the restaurant. A group of people in yellow clothes are particularly conspicuous at the door.
Gu Xiaoyou tried to persuade her several times, but these guys still liked to stay at the door, for fear that someone would order takeout and they wouldn't be able to grab the order.
Unfortunately, after waiting for a few days, the delivery people were almost like pillars at the door of the restaurant, and there were not many orders left.
On this day, the leader of the team with serial number 1 and his team members were sitting at the door of the spicy restaurant and looking at the sky. Suddenly someone pointed at the takeout poster and asked: "Are you the person on the poster?"
The team leader blushed: "Yes, yes."
"So you are delivering food?" the man asked.
"Yes, you are..." the team leader asked without any hope. There have been many people talking to him these days, and usually there is no follow-up to this question.
"Hat-brim Alley, do you know?"
"I know, the Maoyan Hutong you mentioned is in the east of the city." The team leader drew a direction with his hand.
"Yes, that's right there. I want you to deliver spicy hotpot and cross-bridge rice noodles to the third house in Maoyan Hutong. There are two strings of chili peppers hanging at the door. The owner's surname is Wang." The guest said.
The team leader suddenly became energetic: "Okay, when do you want it to be delivered?"
The customer thought for a while and said, "I want to eat it in Shen Shichu. Can it be delivered?"
"No problem, the third store in Shen Shichu's Maoyan Hutong, surnamed Wang, has Malatang and Guoqiao rice noodles." The team leader quickly repeated the order: "Are you right?"
"Yes." The customer took out his wallet and asked, "How much is the delivery fee?"
"It's three miles from the restaurant to the east of the city, and the delivery fee is fifty cents." The team leader said without thinking. He now knew all the places in the capital.
He and his team members even asked each other about the delivery fees in various places. It can be said that they just talked about it.
The customer mentally estimated that it was really three miles away, and immediately paid happily.
The team leader smiled and collected the delivery fee, reported the order to the kitchen, and the customer paid for the meal and left.
Soon it was delivery time, and all the members of the group were rushing to deliver the order.
"I'm familiar with the land in the east of the city. I'll deliver it."
"You sound like you don't know anyone well. Shouldn't you take a day off today? It's better for me to go."
"You two, stop fighting. I'm older, brother. Give me the opportunity."
While the team members were arguing, the team leader took the meal from the kitchen, carefully put it into the food box, buttoned it in the wooden box, covered it with a quilt, got into the car, and drove away in the carriage.
.
Only when the team leader's car was gone did the team members react and secretly cursed the team leader as "a cunning old man."
At the beginning of Shen Shi, the team leader arrived at Maoyan Alley a stick of incense ahead of schedule.
Soon I found the house named Wang, and the person who opened the door was the customer who ordered the meal.
"You came on time." The guest praised.
"The purpose of the delivery team's service is to deliver meals on time so that you can eat hot meals." The team leader answered according to the words in the employee handbook written by Xiaoyou.
This was so well said that the guests smiled when they heard it.
"Then bring the food in."
"Yes, please wait a moment." The team leader responded, took out the food box from the wooden box, and followed the guests to the room.
The guest looked at the food box several times and saw that there was no trace of soup leaking out of the food box, so he became less worried.
I just don’t know if the food is still hot or not, and the guest is muttering in his mind, so he can just go to the kitchen to heat it up.
With this thought in mind, the customer put down his worries and took the delivery boy to the yard.
When we arrived at the restaurant, the team leader placed the food box on the dining table and took out the food.
His movements were quick and steady, and he quickly placed Malatang and Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles on the dining table. He put the bowls and dishes with the ingredients and said to the guests: "I'll pick up the small bowls tomorrow. You can leave the bowls at the door."
That’s it, I wish you a pleasant meal.”
"Okay, I need you to make a trip." The guest said, sending the team leader out the door, and couldn't wait to return to the house.
The food was ready to be heated, so the guest reached out to touch the bowl, and when he touched it, the bowl was actually hot.
The customer's eyes widened and he immediately picked up his chopsticks and took a bite. The temperature of the food was almost the same as that of the food freshly cooked in the store.
"Oh, this is really good." The customer ate the takeaway food with satisfaction.
The customer personally delivered the dishes back the next day, and ordered food for several days and requested delivery.
A curious diner asked: "You are already at the door of the restaurant, so you are queuing up to buy. Can you still eat the takeaway?"
"Of course you can eat it. The spicy hotpot and rice noodles I ordered yesterday were not only full of soup, but the food was also hot when it was delivered to my home," the customer replied.
"Really or not? Your home is very close to here, right?" the diner asked doubtfully.
"My home is three miles away from here." The guest didn't want to say more: "You will know after ordering takeout. If you don't want to tell me, I will go pay the delivery fee."
The diners queuing up at the door were hesitant. Some of the diners who didn't care about money were willing to try new things and joined in the fun after hearing what the diners had to say.
Some customers looked at the backs of the heads of people in front of them and decided to try takeout after looking at the poster.
Most of the customers still maintained a wait-and-see attitude and continued to queue up, but looked at the takeaways from time to time.
The next day, almost everyone who had ordered takeout came to the restaurant to order takeout in advance. Seeing this, the regular diners finally believed what the customers said and began to follow the trend and order takeout.
