From the beginning of the broadcast to the present, the Japanese drama "Tokyo Grand Hotel" has maintained a high score of 8.8, which is definitely a drama worth chasing.
Starring Takuya Kimura, Kyoka Suzuki and many other powerful actors, it can be called a bustling lineup. It tells the story of Natsuki Ohana (Takuya Kimura), who was expelled from the World of Michelin chefs, and Ryuko Hayami, who dreams of getting a Michelin star, who opens a restaurant together. In the process of running the restaurant together, they face difficulties together, support each other, and work towards a common goal. Their entrepreneurial stories tell us that if we have dreams, we will boldly chase, overcome difficulties, and honest trust among team members is precious.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >01 chase after dreams</h1>
Ryuko Hayami has been running a restaurant for decades, but she has a dream in her heart that she wants to get a Michelin star. At the age of 50, Ryuko Hayami closed her own restaurant and went to a Michelin restaurant in Paris to apply for a chef. Unfortunately, she lost the bid. Hayami Ryuko is very confident, her cooking is perfect, why are you not satisfied?
It was also at this time that she encountered the tail flower summer tree that had fallen into hiding in Tibet and was homeless. Natsuki Oehana, a former chef at a Michelin restaurant, had an allergy incident when she received the head of state of affairs. In order not to be caught, Oshina began to hide around.
In order to persuade Hayami Ryuko, Natsuki made her a yellow braised long-tailed shrimp. After Takami Ryuko ate it, she cried on the street. She knew that her cooking skills were too far from Michelin's cooking. So she almost wanted to give up that dream. However, Ryuko Hayami has a tongue that is different from ordinary people, and she can taste the methods and ingredients of each dish. This also surprised the tailflower summer tree.
Natsuki Oshihana was ignited by Takako Hayami's enthusiasm, so the two of them hit it off and wanted to open a three-star Michelin restaurant in Tokyo.
This is a goal that both of them share. But in order to achieve the goal, it takes a lot of money. Ryuko Hayami not only emptied her savings but also mortgaged the house her mother had left for her as start-up capital for opening a restaurant.
In order to prepare the restaurant recipe, Natsuki Ohana can stay until late at night, just wanting to make a dish that suits her own satisfaction. In search of fresh ingredients, they are willing to personally run to the pastoral vegetable field. It was only then that Ryuko realized that it was not that there was no talent, but that there was not enough love.
Later, Ryuko Hayami won the Michelin star with her last dish. It also shows that dreams still have to be had, and persistent efforts will be realized.
Dreams are for realization, and should not be only in the heart. When we love something enough, we are willing to pay more for it. As long as we insist on believing, the dream will certainly be realized. Dreams belong to those who hold out long enough.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" >02 To face difficulties, only to overcome</h1>
The road to realizing your dreams is always full of thorns. Hayami Ryuko and Otoshi Natsuki are no exception.
Opening a restaurant requires people, let alone a Michelin restaurant, and it is difficult to do without a perfect team. Natsuki Oda and Ryuko Hayami began to look around for someone. At that time, those colleagues, Oehana Natsuki began to put down her body to invite. He first thought of Kyono.
Kyono, who now works at a Michelin restaurant in Japan, looked down on Natsuki Ohana's approach to allergies and declined the invitation. However, he was persuaded by Takako Hayami and paid a large amount of liquidated damages for Kyono.
Although Kyono didn't like Natsuki Ogana, he was touched by Takako Hayami's sincerity and joined the team. They also find Aizawa.
When everyone saw that Natsuki Ohana knew how to respect the opinions of others and think about others, those former colleagues joined the team of tokyo hotel together.
The restaurant opened for business, but it was reported because of an allergy to Natsuki Ohana, which was a disgrace to the chef community. The restaurant was in crisis at one point. Not a single table of guests came a day, the funds ran out immediately, everyone was helpless, and everyone was sad to see the red-hot restaurant fall step by step.
In order to keep the restaurant alive, they put down the Michelin high above and went to the food festival to make fast food at the assembly line.
At the food festival, it is sought after by more and more people. As long as you make food with your heart, it will always be loved by people. Their diners lined up in a long line. Although tired, everyone's face was full of triumphant smiles.
Their restaurants are also beginning to be accepted, with more and more reserved locations and more repeat customers every day.
After surviving the most difficult times, everything is moving in a good direction.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >03The perfect team is the catalyst for the realization of dreams</h1>
The two things that impressed me the most during the drama were that Kyono said that we were the most perfect team. The second is a person who goes undercover in a restaurant to take revenge, and eventually becomes the core of the team.
In the team, there are two chefs, Natsuki Oehana and Ryuko Hayami, as well as the assistants of Aizawa and Shohei, the pastry chef Moe, the sommelier Kusumi Kana, the restaurant manager Kyono, and the new generation that has grown up such as Serita. Each of them is partly responsible, collaborating with each other, supporting each other, communicating openly, and all the focus is on the cuisine. This made Kyono sigh: This is the most perfect team.
Before becoming the most perfect team, sommelier Kusumi Kusana went undercover to the hotel with the aim of revenge.
In the allergy incident of that year, it was she who recommended her father to the restaurant where Ohana Natsuki was the chef, and unfortunately an accident occurred, and her father was dismissed. She couldn't face her father, and blamed herself so much that she couldn't forgive herself. For three years she had been looking for the tailflower summer tree. However, when she came into contact with Oehana Natsuki, she was touched by his love of food and his honest attitude. In the end, she chose to forgive Natsuki Obiki and reconcile with herself.
In this way, Jingdong Hotel has formed the strongest team. Their goal is to pick up three Michelin stars. After the team's efforts, they went through many tests and finally got three stars.
Here I say, the meaning of the representative of the Michelin star.
A Michelin-starred restaurant is a delicious dish that happens to be nearby. Two Michelin stars are excellent dishes that are worth a taste even if you walk a little more. Three Michelin stars are an excellent dish worth a special trip to eat. For caterers, getting a Michelin star is a dream and a supreme honor.
At no time can we ignore the power of a team. One person can go fast, and a group of people can go far. Everyone does their best to contribute to the team, then this team is the perfect team.
Everyone has had dreams, some people have worked hard to dream, and some people have hidden their dreams in their hearts. Dreams are made to be realized, and as long as we have enough enthusiasm and enough persistence, we will get closer and closer to our dreams. In the process of chasing dreams, we will see another self.
