To the residents of Chaos City, the Delicacy Conference was an annual gourmet feast. To the food and beverage industry, it was a promotional event and a chance for their own restaurants to rise.
More than 100,000 people, and those were people who had the ability to consume, could easily make a small restaurant or even a small stall popular.
Such things had happened from time to time at previous Gourmet Conferences.
And this had also become the driving force for all the businesses to participate in the Delicacy Conference.
The Food Association had screened the participating businesses for three months, and eliminated those customers whose hygiene and ingredients did not meet the standards. They wanted to protect the customers' interests to the greatest extent so that they could enjoy the Delicacy Conference.
The sky had just brightened, and the Aden Square's Delicacy Conference was already very lively.
The businesses were dragging all kinds of equipment and ingredients into the venue, cutting them and waiting. The bosses were loudly instructing their employees to arrange the things neatly, so that they could give the customers the best experience when the exhibition area opened.
"Boss, whose booth is that? It's such a good location and such a big venue. Why hasn't anyone come to set it up yet? "
"Didn't you see the big signboard? Mamy's. I heard that the president of the Food Association invited her personally, and even advertised her at all the entrances. I think … it's just that."
"Boss, are you jealous?"
"Meow, I am jealous …"
Mamy's booth was located at the biggest entrance of the venue. It would take in the largest number of people at the Delicacy Conference. The stage for the event was not far away, and it was said that there would be a few performances of varying sizes every day.
If they could rent this spot, many bosses would be willing to pay a high price.
However, as the face of the Delicacy Conference, this spot had always been designated by the Food Association. In the past few years, it had been Ducas Restaurant. Today, it was Mamy's, and Ducas Restaurant's stall was moved back by one spot.
To the food and beverage industry, this change was foreseeable.
Although Mamy's had only been open for half a year, dominating the Aden Square's Delicious Cuisine Rankings had become the norm. Moreover, she was a regular on all the major gourmet magazines. Many customers came just to have a taste.
A restaurant like this was unimaginable in Chaos City in the past.
Some of the businesses who were originally unconvinced all shut their mouths after going to Mamy's to try it. Some even became fans.
Although they were jealous, most of the merchants were convinced that the Food Association had placed Mamy's in the center position.
Moreover, there were quite a number of people who were close to this stall. They had already begun to place their hopes on being able to get some benefits from this big brother.
"No, I can't take this lying down. It's one thing to change our fixed position, but why should they occupy two stalls? Our Ducas Restaurant is one of the oldest restaurants in Chaos City. We have enjoyed a good reputation in Chaos City for so many years. Robert is not giving us any face at all! "Manager Alva gritted his teeth as he looked at the two empty stalls.
The employees who were cutting the ingredients looked at each other and didn't dare to speak.
Head Chef Beate stood beside the oven and carefully adjusted the angle and position of the oven.
"Beate, what are the chances that your new flavor of roast pig will be able to defeat him?" Alvar walked over to Beate's side, and asked in a hushed voice.
Beate looked at him and thought for a moment before saying, "Fifty percent."
"So low?" Alva's brows furrowed. Ever since Mamy's rose to prominence, Ducas Restaurant had fallen from its position as the top restaurant in Chaos City.
Initially, he had wanted to raise the price of Mamy's dishes because of how expensive they were. However, that led to the loss of regular customers, and many of them directly flocked to Mamy's.
Even though he had lowered the price of his dishes in a timely manner, and managed to retain some of his customers, Ducas Restaurant was no longer synonymous with a high-class restaurant in the eyes of his customers.
Instead, it was a choice for customers who couldn't line up at Mamy's, or it wasn't suitable for them to dine in an open venue like Mamy's. It was mostly because of the spacious venue.
This was very difficult for the proud Alva to accept. He wanted Ducas Restaurant to be the first choice for others, and not a substitute.
Thankfully, after Beate was defeated by Meg, he had focused on researching recipes, and finally came up with a brand new roast pig.
During this period of time, he had asked Beate to continue improving his new roast pig as he wanted to shock the world with a single brilliant feat.
Ducas Restaurant's stall and Mamy's stall were adjacent to each other, which was equivalent to competing on the same stage. He couldn't wait to avenge his humiliation.
"Head Chef Meg's culinary skills are superb. It's not easy to beat him." Beate glanced at the empty stall at the side, and a confident glow appeared in his eyes. "However, I have confidence in this roast pig."
"Alright, I believe you." Alva nodded, and didn't say anything else.
…
Meg woke up at 6am as usual. He made a single breakfast for Irina first, and then had breakfast with Mia and the rest after they arrived. He also told them about the work plan for the day.
Firis was in charge of cutting the ingredients, Yabemiya was in charge of receiving the customers and packing the food, and Shirley and Anna were in charge of collecting money.
Gina, Jane, and Angela were in charge of the octopus tentacles stall. Barbara hadn't returned yet, and Camilla and Elizabeth had applied for leave. However, there were still enough people at the moment.
Meg stood up and looked at everyone. "The number of customers we are serving today might be a few times more than usual. However, we only need to make four dishes today, and we don't need to serve or clear the table. Good luck!"
"Good luck!" the girls cheered with smiles on their faces.
"Then let's set off. We still need to set up the venue." Meg opened the door and loaded two carts with kitchen utensils and octopus tentacles that needed to be sold, as well as two standing billboards, before heading to the venue of the Gourmet Conference.
Meg didn't bring many kitchen utensils. He only brought a triple stove, three octopus meatball grilling utensils, and a portable cutting table. After setting them up, the venue was still spacious.
On the other side, Gina and the rest had already placed the octopus tentacles on the shelves. The L-shaped container facing the entrance was filled with octopus tentacles of different sizes. It looked very impactful.
"These octopus tentacles are huge. This octopus must be huge, right?" Jane said softly as she lifted a huge octopus tentacle that was close to 50 kilograms and placed it on the table with some difficulty.
"Jane, didn't you come from the beach? Have you never seen a live octopus before? "Yabemiya asked curiously as she helped Chen Lie.
"I've only seen palm-sized ones. I've never seen one that big." Jane shook her head and looked at the octopus tentacle that was almost as thick as her waist. She stuck out her tongue. "If I had seen one, I would definitely have been eaten by it."
