Lenka's Dish
10
Jean deftly divided each of the 4 dishes into several portions.
Because Lenka cooks in large quantities, enough for 11-12 people, suddenly Jean had an idea to enjoy the process with all her workers.
Yeah, when else could Jean get along with the Ola Voila people? So that they not only know how to work, but also enjoy what they have given for this restaurant with all their heart.
Some customers who happen to be enjoying dinner were part of tasting typical Thai Lenka-style processed even in small portions, free as a sample.
Not to forget Jean included a small paper for customers writing value, to find out the level of satisfaction over the dish.
"Inge, we're closing faster tonight. Please turn open writing into closed at the door."
"Bagas, Arif, Dani, please set up a table at the garden where we eat together."
"Chef Alice Morel and chef Benjamin Sinaga, please make us a special dinner dish with fresh soft drinks."
Tell Jean, to some of his employees.
"Is today so special madam, how rich is there a celebration ?" Ask Chef Alice Morel.
"Yes, today is special. Haven't we eaten together in a long time ?" Reply Jean.
Hmm. I haven't seen mistress Jean smile happily like this, Alice's inner being.
🌻🌻🌻
Jean, Helena, Sky, chef Alice Morel, chef Benjamin Sinaga and 15 other employees have eaten the special dishes available in front of them.
Tiiigg
The oven alarm sounds.
"Oh, I almost forgot something." Helena patted her forehead and ran small into the cooking room.
He took out the roasted duck thighs from the oven and arranged them on a plate with thin pieces of lemon around it and brought them to the table to be enjoyed together.
"Confit de canard ?" Said chef Alice and chef Benjamin at the same time with a glance.
"Yes, I hope his taste is as true as the real confit de canard." said Helena.
"Ah, we have long emptied this menu from the list, because only the chef Marie Blanc can process it with typical." Said Jean.
The sky is not silent. Of course he was cool to capture the moment of the impromptu party.
Even though he was hungry, Sky continued to take pictures and make video restos from every corner. Chef is busy cooking. Also Jean's interaction with the workers at the Ola Voila resto.
Do not forget to photograph some dishes in the form of food, drinks and dessert processed chef Alice and chef Benjamin.
Cheseeee.. !
Snap.. Snap.. Snap..
And they dissolve in togetherness
"Friends, I have news.." Cetus Jean suddenly after enjoying his dinner.
Silent.
Everyone was curious about what Jean was going to say.
"Ola Voila resto will close.."
Still quiet. The workers held their breaths, looking at each other.
"Yaaaah.mrs, how come?" like the choir the voices of his workers were complaining.
"Yes, Ola Voila resto will be closed from tomorrow." Jean continued again while waiting for the reaction of his workers.
"Yaaaah.mrs, how come?" like the choir the voices of his workers were complaining.
Sadness, disappointment and the smell of frustration enveloped their faces.
"Yesse.!" The happy workers.
"But on one condition." Strictly Jean again.
"What, cut your pay, ma'am?" Guess one of the employees .
"No, you must make criticism and suggestions for the progress of our resto. Collected as soon as possible yes, can be via chat, email or handwriting. It can be with or without a name. Ok ?"
"Ahsssiiiaappp, mistress !" Calls the workers together.
Jean smiled at the cohesiveness of her workers. May it continue like this, he hoped inwardly.
"Langit, Lenka, you can come with us too." Said Jean.
Wobble, Sky and Lenka just looked and smiled.
"We'll think about it later, Miss Jeanett. Maybe Lenka, 'cause if we both left, no one would take care of you."The sky slowly.
"Well then Sky, I understand." Reply Jean.
"Oh yes Lenka, although the restaurant closes you are also my third chef and some assistant chef stick to the resto 4 days ahead. We both process the dishes to update our menu list."

Jeanett Moon is grateful, meeting Lenka who has somehow made her return to being a positive-minded, optimistic and big-spirited person.
He had thought it was okay to shut down Ola Voila, giving severance to all his workers who, even in the last 3 months, had lost much of their income, would not make him poor.
Jean almost forgot, even though she closed her restaurant not because of bankruptcy, how the fate of the workers who hung her life in this restaurant, how is their family ?
Last night while accompanying Aimee in the hospital, Jean kept thinking about it.
Lenka's appearance seemed to remind him to be selfless.
Then he calculated on paper, the losses did exist, but still greater the profits he had gained so far.
Compared to the benefits that will not be obtained if without loyal workers, how much money will be spent to reward the loyalty of their workers?
Carefully, Jean made details of spending on workers' salaries, vacations, allowances, new uniforms and shoes and a 15% pay increase when they started to re-enter work. Funds for the replacement workers who will be responsible for maintaining the cleanliness of the restaurant and maintaining the garden, during the restaurant closed. Including renovation funds, adding a second-floor building for a meeting/special event room with a capacity of 150 people, expanding the cooking room and making changes so that the kitchen resto a little open so that anyone can see the food processing process, so the storage space that needs to be expanded a little and hmm. also replace some tools in his restaurant because Jean has an idea to display only objects that have been used since this business was just pioneered .
Jean also felt the need to add chefs and other workers. Soon he'll open a job.
Hm.. Suppose I start this business from 0 and need to spend capital. Jean was excited.

"Honey, you're a real surprise." Speak the sky while driving
"You mean, wasn't I just being quiet ?" Ask Helena.
"No. I mean, you deserve to be a chef. How can you process the cuisine was a la chef reliable when before you. arguably can not cook." Be careful Sky said that while smiling.
"I'm just learning the recipe and trying, baby. I don't even deserve the title of chef yet, because I cook just dabble, hihi."
"Try cooking is delicious, let alone seriusin." The sky again.
"I'll be serious sometime, I want to focus on completing my studies first." Typhoon Helena.
"Think about it, baby. I support you." Serious Sky Speech.
Not long after they arrived home, and did not forget Helena opened the food box she brought from the restaurant to pack Kasan.
"Come, sir. Dinner first." Bring along.
"Wow, eat good from the resto." Said Mr. Kasan impatiently wanted to taste.
"That's Lenka's, sir." The word proud sky.
"What is it ?" Reply Mr. Kasan almost in disbelief.
