According to authoritative sources in the catering industry, there are three major schools of Zhengzhou's emblem today: one is the collection and recording, the traditional production method; One is Xiaoji, a new fragrance type; The other is the "Fengyuan" series, which is also a kind that people like. Hutchison is the originator of Zhengzhou mutton Huimian Noodles. Speaking of mutton Huimian Noodles in Zhengzhou, of course, we must first talk about Hutchison. Hutchison's predecessor was Laoxiang Hotel, which opened in 1942. Because the boss is Hui and the chef is from Shaanxi, it was named "Shaanxi Beef and Mutton Cooking Hall". At first, I was mainly cooking and also engaged in making steamed buns. 1947, the store moved to Shunhe Road (near Erqi Square today), where chef Zhao Rongguang specializes in cooking, making steamed buns and Huimian Noodles. Later, Huimian Noodles became a best-selling variety and changed its name to "Shaanxi Beef and Mutton Huimian Noodles Pavilion". 1952, three bosses, fellow villager, Yilanxuan and Shunhelou, operated in partnership. Because it is a partnership system, people in the industry call it joint recording. If you are an old Zhengzhou, you can judge your "level" of eating glutinous rice noodles from the earliest price you remember. Li Baosheng of Zhengzhou Catering Company is a standard Huimian Noodles lover of mutton. When Hui noodle restaurant was still in the northwest corner of Erqi Tower, he often went there. He recalled: at first, it was 0.36 yuan plus 4 Liang food stamps for a bowl, and later it was 0.37 yuan, 0.39 yuan, 0.4 1 yuan ... At that time, no matter in the morning or evening, when passing by Erqi Tower, you could always see a group of people squatting or standing, holding white porcelain bowls and burying their heads in chewing ... At that time, Hutchison's Hui noodle restaurant had only two facades and fifteen or six tables. There is a figure that can fully reflect that Hutchison's business was booming at that time. Because most customers are "working" in the open air, the tableware is very old. Every month, Hutchison's Huimian Noodles Pavilion pulls back a truckload of tableware with Dongfeng Motor! Since then, Heji mutton Huimian Noodles has become a famous brand in Zhengzhou! Later, Hutchison Hui noodle restaurant opened a branch near the present natural commercial building, and it was still crowded. After 1980s, with the transformation of Zhengzhou, Heji Huimian Noodles Pavilion was demolished. "Mutton lovers in Hui noodles" protested to catering enterprises and relevant departments one after another. At that time, the newspaper also published an article "Where is the Hui noodles collection? The article calls for. So Zhengzhou Catering Company sent the masters of the original Hui noodle restaurant to Yipin Xiang Hotel near the intersection of Gong Ming Road and Jiefang Road, and re-launched the banner of collection. 199 1 year, Huimian Noodles Pavilion moved to the prime location of Renmin Road. Since the mid-1990s, Hutchison Huimian Noodles has started chain operation, and now there are 8 chain stores in Zhengzhou. Now the business of Huimian is booming, which can also be reflected by a number. People's Road Head Office alone consumes more than two tons of coriander a month! Only Xiaoji can compete with He Ji in Zhengzhou. Xiaoji's three fresh emblems can be described as a sword that suddenly rises! 1986, when Xiao Ji first opened in Huimian, he didn't even have a storefront, starting with a canvas tent, a low table, a bench and a pot of soup. With a flick of a finger, today's Xiaoji only pays profits and taxes to the country every year1100 million! Xiao Honghe, the founder of Xiao Ji Huimian Noodles, was once a chef of Zhengzhou State-owned Changchun Hotel. After retirement, he led his two sons to open the Huimian Noodles Pavilion. Instead of following the traditional mutton Huimian Noodles style, he found inspiration from his famous noodles, adding delicious and nutritious sea cucumber and squid to mutton Huimian Noodles, which is called Sanxian Huimian Noodles. Many people have the same memory. At that time, Xiao Ji Huimian Noodles Pavilion was opened in the triangle at the intersection of Renmin Road and Dongtaikang Road, and it was open all night. On a snowy night, three or two confidants gathered here, called a plate of shredded red bean paste and a plate of roast mutton, and a steaming bowl of three fresh Huimian Noodles was placed in front of everyone. Even if you have another bottle of the most common white wine, you can have unlimited pleasure! The original stall has now developed into Zhengzhou Xiaoji Noodle Co., Ltd., and the boss Xiao Cunxing is Xiao Honghe's eldest son. Xiao Cunxing personally took the helm of the head office in North Street of Zhengbian Road Warehouse, with his wife, brother and niece sitting in three direct branches. In addition, Xiao Cunxing also developed several branches in Zhengzhou in the form of franchise stores. 10 days ago, Huimian Town, Luxian County, Gongren Road, the western suburb of Zhengzhou, just opened. Just like several other branches in Xiaoji, customers are crowded and business is booming. When Xiao Ji started his business for the first time, his signboard was "Three Counties Xiaoji Huimian Noodles Pavilion". With his growing fame, the signboard was changed to "Huimian Noodles Pavilion in Three Counties of Xiaoji". Now, the signboard of his head office has been changed to "Huimian Noodles Food City in Three Counties of Xiaoji". Xiao Cunxing said that in the mid-1980s, when Xiao Ji opened it, the mutton Huimian Noodles restaurant in Zhengzhou was in its heyday. However, because the market has just been liberalized, investors have no confidence in long-term operation, and there are widespread problems such as small storefront and poor hygiene. When the business is good, quality is ignored, and when there are more customers, water is poured into the mutton soup ... When Xiaoji started her business, she put quality first in order to be famous. Today, the Shaw brothers have already tasted the sweetness of fame and have taken care of the Xiao Ji brand. Not long ago, a relative of Xiao Cunxing's hometown played the banner of Huimian Noodles in Zhengzhou. After many twists and turns, the negotiation failed, and Xiao Cunxing finally safeguarded Xiao Ji's trademark right through law. From the change of the "mountain" that thrives since childhood, we can see the development of Huimian Noodles in Zhengzhou. At the beginning of his business, Xiao Cunxing was both a boss and a "grocer", riding a broken bicycle with a basket in the back seat every day in the free market. Then I changed a tricycle. Then there will be a van, a van. Now he drives in and out in a red-flag car. After the development, Xiao Cunxing was enthusiastic about public welfare undertakings. A familiar calligrapher once wrote an inscription for him, "Self-improvement, kindness and morality". Deeply moved, Xiao Cunxing thought it was a wise saying and took it as the purpose of the development of his family business. In the mid-1990s, the Huimian Noodles Pavilion of HSBC Source opened in Qi Jing Road. When the operator makes a move, it looks quite imposing, with bright shops, luxurious decoration and rich varieties of side dishes. The unique feature of Huifeng Garden's Hui noodles is that nourishing Chinese herbal medicines are added to the soup. Since the opening of Huifeng Garden, almost every meal has been bursting. The smooth development of Huifeng Garden is a miracle, and its rise has inspired the confidence of mutton operators in Huimian. Interestingly, after that, dozens of Hui noodle restaurants named "Afengyuan" suddenly appeared in Zhengzhou. It is said that some of them are really delicious. At present, many Hui noodle restaurants have occupied a place in Zhengzhou's catering market.
