Chapter 411 The Spark Restaurant: Reports And Projections

?

Theo wished everyone a Happy New Year as he left the studio after the meeting, that was because he would only see them after he came back from vacation.

To Ryoko, he only bade farewell as he would see her tomorrow at his house for the New Year Party that he would throw.

After wishing everyone a happy new year, Theo left the studio in his car and headed straight to his restaurant.

That night would be the last service of the restaurant of the years, as Theo would not open tomorrow.

Which made the night already special, but after the service, there would be a little party for everyone where Ayia and Shizuka would be able to enjoy a New Year's Party with everyone.

June and Aurora spent the whole day organizing the party, and when Theo arrived at the restaurant the two of them were already there.

"Good afternoon, Sarah! Looking forward to the holidays?" Theo smiled at the girl who worked as a greeter.

Sarah was mentioned before as a college student.

"Yes, boss! I'm gonna visit my family in the countryside." Sarah replied with enthusiasm.

Theo laughed and congratulated her before he headed to the kitchen.

Among all companies that Theo owned, the restaurant would receive the longest holidays.

The restaurant would be closed from December 31st until January 12th. This meant that employees would have a 13-day paid vacation.

That was because all the kitchen staff would travel with Theo to the Heart Islands, so there was no possibility of the restaurant opening until they came back.

Which was totally different from the other companies that Theo owned.

The other companies would only have 4 days max of holidays, but that was because they could operate without Theo and their respective Director Managers.

When Theo arrived in the kitchen, some people were already there waiting for their shift to start.

Theo greeted everyone with a smile before he entered the dressing room to change into his chef outfit.

When he left the dressing room wearing his black chef clothes, instead of staying with the others in the kitchen, he headed to June's office.

Just like all the other managers under him did that day, she would present the reports related to the restaurant.

KNOCK KNOCK

"Come in!" June's voice came from inside when Theo knocked on her door.

When he entered the room, he was greeted by the image of two women busy with their work.

They were putting together the last decorations for the party later.

"Oh, Aurora, you are here too!" Theo said as he gave her a doting smile.

"Big brother! I spent the day with June-onee-chan!" She giggled.

"How're the preparations for the party?" Theo asked as he took a seat beside them.

"Everything's ready, and the food you will take care of it, right?" June asked.

"Yeah, I squeeze the food preparations during the service. Ayia and Shizuka won't even suspect that we will be making food for a party in the middle of the service." Theo laughed.

Aurora giggled when she heard that.

"Okay, I presume you came here for the reports?" June asked suddenly.

"Yes, you told me to come here before the service to present the reports." Theo replied calmly.

"Okay, then. Let me start." She said as she gave Theo a stack of papers.

"These are the reports, but I will still explain them." She added.

Theo nodded as he received the papers.

"The restaurant opened on September 19th of 2020, which means that we have been open for over 3 months already. Since then, I observed a steady increase in the fame of the restaurant. Little by little, we were able to expand our clientele as our good food conquered the hearts of the people who visited us. At the moment we are one of the most famous restaurants in town. Even though we are not even close to the starred restaurants in town, among the non-starred restaurants in the city we became one of the best and most famous." June explained.

Theo nodded in understanding when he heard that, but Aurora's eyes shone when she heard that.

She hasn't told anyone yet, but she had sent an application to Aether Magazine to have one of their food critics come to evaluate the restaurant.

If a restaurant was able to be listed with a star in Aether Magazine, its fame and renown would register a large jump.

We just had to observe the two starred restaurants in Elffire City, their fame and renown were much bigger than The Spark Restaurant. They were the restaurants that June mentioned just now.

"In the last few weeks, we saw a huge increase in the search for reservations. That was after a renowned food critic in the town complimented our food in one of the city journals." She added.

"Our numbers during the first month were..." June then started to give a detailed report of the attendance during the last months.

She also reported the profits, the costs, the energy bills, and the costs with ingredients compared month to month.

Briefly, June detailed the whole operation of the restaurant with details while Theo listened to everything with attention, sometimes he even asked something to her, but he was mostly silent while she talked.

Even though June only took care of this 'tiny' business, she took her job very seriously, and that's why Theo was so satisfied with her job.

The restaurant did not register many oscillations during the three months that it was opened, which was much different when compared with the other companies that Theo owned. That was because the restaurant was the same since its opening, and Theo did not plan on changing anything.

The restaurant was his temple, and he would maintain the way it was as long as it was possible.

"...that's all for the past months' reports. Now I will give the overview of next year's operations." She declared.

"We have a long-term partnership with the supplier we currently buy our ingredients, so there will be no problem with that for next year." She started.

Theo already expected that as the supplier was the one that Ayia's grandfather recommended. After knowing Ayia for so long, he already knew that she was extremely rich, so the supplier they recommended was top-notch.

June passed to explain the restaurant operations for next year, "...the cast of employees will not change as well. The only important thing that will change is that we will only operate 5 days a week starting next year, just like you asked me to. All the reservations we did for January already respect the new rule." June explained.

Theo nodded in understanding, but Aurora was a little surprised as she didn't know about this change. She wanted to ask her brother why he was doing that, but she held back until June finished her report.

June talked for a while longer, until she finished reporting everything.

Theo looked at her and smiled, "Great work, June! I'm glad Sam recommended you to me." He did not measure the compliment he made to her.

He could see that she poured her heart into her job, and he was glad that she liked her job.

It was then that Aurora couldn't hold back anymore and asked...
