Zhao Meng has worked at Qianlima for over ten years and has met many people.
The person who came today is one of his old customers.
After dealing with them for many years, Zhao Meng can somewhat guess if the dish ordered is for entertaining guests, for family, or for some celebratory event.
This old customer ordered a table of dishes today and also specially requested a bowl of seafood noodles.
Zhao Meng looked at the menu, specially asked the order-taker to confirm he hadn't mistaken the person, and then hurried over to the pastry section, temporarily borrowed a six-inch cake, and also asked Li Shuli to help make a beautiful fruit platter, which he personally delivered to the private room.
The old customer is celebrating a birthday today.
Otherwise, usually when coming to the restaurant, the staple would always be mackerel dumplings or seafood congee. This person does not like pasta except for dumplings.
As it turns out, Zhao Meng's guess was very accurate.
