11、是为那些匆匆赶路,不愿在路上浪费时间的过客们设立的。为节省时间,柜台上设有多台计算机,以便减少付款时间。 饱(Filling):快餐要给人以“价廉物美”之感。这就是说, 一方面使人感到东西不少,另一方面又使人感到便宜。为此,可以在炸鸡上多洒些面包屑;或把面包卷做得厚些。此外,炸马铃薯片和生菜沙拉也很容易使人饱。 新鲜(Fresh):美国人很重视食品的新鲜豆子要碧绿,番茄要绯红,菠萝要金黄,草莓要鲜红,鱼肉要洁白;油炸的食品必须酥脆;生菜要鲜嫩,温度也须讲究。为了卫生起见,食品须很热,或者很冷,不冷不热的容易使顾客怀疑不新鲜。优良的冷冻和通风设备是不可缺少的。 油炸(Fried):美国人喜欢吃酥
12、脆的油炸食品,但都不愿在家里做,所以他们愿意到快餐店去饱餐一顿。同时,油炸的食品做起来快,也易于携带,还可以一边开车,一边用手拿着吃。,MODULE 3.1 BUSSINESS TOPIC,美国快餐业成功的8个F,家庭式:快餐店的食品必须符合美国家庭的要求:对孩子来说,食品不能做得太腻,而对家长来说,又不能太贵;洗手间必须清洁卫生;餐厅要明亮通风,餐桌要干净。食品一般由妇女烹饪为宜,因为这可以给人宛如家庭主妇烹饪的感觉。快餐店一般不供应酒类,也不另设酒吧间。 浪漫感(Fantasy):家庭式快餐店一方面要使人感到是家外之家,一方面又要使人感到在那里用餐是一种享受,甚至是一种冒险,一种刺激。 福
13、特主义(Fordism):所谓福特主义,包括精密分工,降低生产成本,节省生产时间,以及采用自动化设备代替手工操作。快餐业的老板在快餐制作方面,遵循美国汽车大王亨利福特流水作业的方法,大量使用年轻的非熟练工人,他们的活儿不固定,可以随时调换,从而使生产既快又省。 特许经营权(Franchising):通过出让特许经营权,那些快餐公司得以在全国推销他们的产品,统一规格,并迅速发展。,MODULE 3.1 BUSSINESS TOPIC,Reading: The Man behind McDonalds 麦当劳餐馆的幕后人,Text Structure Analysis,MODULE 3.1 BUS
