After three years of dormancy, the Gourmet Tyrant was born.

"..."

Hearing the praises coming and going, Hojo Kazuya became even more proud.

……

At this moment.

Inside the kitchen, they were unaware of what was happening in the front of house.

For Hojo Miyoko, there was no need to think about so many things.

The kitchen counter is her personal battlefield.

Faced with the increasing number of orders, Miyoko Hojo wiped the sweat from her forehead and continued to devote herself wholeheartedly to the task.

Hojo Miyoko: "Megumi, it seems like we don't have enough beef. We need to..."

Megumi Tadokoro: "It's all ready, Miyoko. Cut it into pieces according to size, it's all done!"

Miyoko Hojo: "Thank you, Ryoko. The side dish for Kung Pao Chicken, I need it in two minutes!"

Ryoko Sakaki: "Don't worry, give me a minute, I'll be done in a minute."

Miyoko Hojo: "Ikumi, steaming time..."

Mito Ikumi: "The calculations are very clear, so I don't need to worry about that. 890 Miyoko, continue with your next order!"

Miyoko Hojo: "Okay!"

Despite it being their first collaboration, Hojo Miyoko and the other women worked together remarkably well.

No wonder they achieved such good results in the fall selection competition.

Even when faced with an unfamiliar recipe, they were still able to cooperate so well after a brief familiarization process.

This gave Hojo Miyoko a great sense of peace, especially since she also had...

"Miyoko, give me two of your forms."

"It's not enough at all! I've cleared everything out here!"

"I can't let you steal the spotlight all by yourself!"

"Haha, looks like we can take another hundred tables!"

Lu Xuanyu said smugly.

Miyoko Hojo couldn't help but smile.

The greatest source of peace of mind for me is Lu Xuanyu, who is also a head chef.

It was as if, as long as he was there, any seemingly terrible difficulty could be resolved one by one.

Nowadays!

Miyoko Hojo had a premonition that this would be a pivotal day for the kitchen renovation at Hojo-ro!

159 Record-Breaking Sales! Miyoko's Heartfelt Thanks! [Please Subscribe!]

It's 11:30 p.m.

It's time for the kitchen to close for lunch.

There were still more than a dozen tables of customers inside the restaurant who had not finished their meals.

However, the result is already obvious.

"Phew, everyone, you've worked hard."

"Being the head chef of a restaurant is definitely not an easy job."

Lu Xuanyu took off his chef's uniform and spoke to the girls in the group.

After wiping the sweat from her face, Miyoko Hojo wore an excited smile.

He spends most of his time in the kitchen of Hojo-ro.

Of course she knew how today's order volume compared to usual.

This bet was undoubtedly a resounding victory for them.

Hojo Miyoko walked to the edge of the crowd and began to speak:

"Everyone!"

Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to it.

Miyoko Hojo bowed deeply at a 90-degree angle, a gesture she felt genuinely connected to the occasion.

"Thank you all for your help!"

"I'm not a very socially adept girl, and I don't know how to express my gratitude."

"If you ever need my help in the future, I will be there anytime, anywhere, and I will never refuse!"

"I...I'm really grateful!"

Miyoko Hojo's eyes were filled with tears, and she remained seated for a long time.

This time, the women didn't say much, content to appreciate Hojo Miyoko's gratitude.

"Young Master Lu! And all you genius chefs!"

"The sales figures are in!"

Hojo Kazuya led the three head chefs into the kitchen hall.

Judging from the expressions of the three chefs, you could tell that the result was sure to be a huge surprise to them.

"Mr. Hojo, how's today's sales compared to usual?"

Lu Xuanyu asked with concern.

He doesn't need specific numbers; they mean nothing to him.

Only by comparing the past with today can we most clearly illustrate the issue.

"Three times! It's three times!"

"Today's weekday sales are three times the highest weekday sales in the past year!"

"It has even surpassed the peak sales volume of the weekend, which is the highest this year... and even the highest single-day sales record since Hojo-ro opened!"

"This is amazing! I've never heard so many compliments before, nor have I ever seen such a bustling business!"

"Miyako, you did it! You really made Dad look at you in a new light!"

Hojo Kazuya's excitement was written all over his face.

This outcome was entirely within Lu Xuanyu's expectations.

"Yuuki, tell me the real feedback from the 100 tables of diners you collected."

As Lu Xuanyu spoke, Yoshino Yuuki immediately came to the front.

Holding a notebook in her hand, she began to speak:

"It would take a long time to read out the actual reviews from diners."

"The three head chefs and Manager Hojo can take a look at my notes later."

"In summary, out of 100 tables of diners, 96 tables gave positive reviews of the adjusted flavor."

"The other four tables did not order any dishes from the changed menu."

"However, I successfully recommended three of the tables to add the signature dish, braised lion's head meatballs."

"All three tables gave it rave reviews, and one table even packed two extra portions to take away before leaving."

"The detailed records and comments are all here, and I'm handing them over to you!"

Yoshino Yuuki was not handed over to Hojo Kazuya.

Instead, it was handed over directly to the head chef, Chef A.

Judging from the composition of the three-person team, it is obvious that Chef A is the leader.

Chef A awkwardly took the notebook and said sheepishly:

"I...I will definitely observe carefully when I go down."

Hojo Kazuya was also quite satisfied with the current outcome.

He stepped forward and continued presiding, saying:

"Chefs, the final result is obvious."

"As agreed, everyone should actively cooperate with any improvements Miyoko makes to the recipes in the future."

"Of course, her advice isn't always correct; good communication is key, and you should offer your own opinions."

"Instead of resisting the innovation of Chinese cuisine recipes as we are now."

"If everyone is willing to cooperate actively, the kitchen staff in our store will naturally become more and more harmonious."
