Zuoting and Right Courtyard is a well-known chain catering enterprise in Shanghai, founded in 2015, it has now become a hegemon of Shanghai beef hot pot, and radiates to Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Beijing, Tianjin and other regions, and by May 2018, the number of directly operated stores has exceeded 50, and the development momentum is very rapid. The location strategy of the left and right courtyards is similar to that of Niu Yan, which is located in a shopping mall with high foot flow and is equipped with a distinctive dining environment. The business of the Hangzhou branch is very hot during meal time, and it is common to queue up for meals.

As a large-scale beef hot pot chain enterprise, Zuoting and Right Court have a considerable right to speak in the beef supply chain. The official will purchase calves, breeding, processing, distribution, store sales of several steps to integrate, the pursuit of standardization of the process. The left court and the right court and the relevant government departments of Guanqi County, Guizhou Province cooperated to build a breeding base, the calves to 3~4 years old, then transported to the Huzhou slaughtering base in East China, the cattle are slaughtered and decomposed and then transported to various branches in Hangzhou through the logistics cold chain. Some of the beef is sent to the processing base to be processed into beef balls and other products. Officially, there are 2 batches of beef arriving at the store every day, but in fact there is only a batch of meat around 9 a.m. every day, so the lunch market is a relatively safe choice.

The meat cutters in the left and right courtyards have received standardized training and their performance is remarkable. The meat slices are basically the same, and the adhesion is not much, which is within the acceptable range.

Zuo Tingyou, who is not from Chaoshan, gives a lot of freedom in the choice of the bottom of the pot. Tomato beef brisket and mandarin duck pot, special beef brisket and mandarin duck pot, and fresh beef offal mandarin duck pot meet the needs of more diners. Officially, the Mandarin Duck Pot was exclusively developed by the head chef and suited to everyone's tastes, but we recommend that diners who pursue traditional flavors choose the original soup pot with beef bones, and drink a bowl of beef bone soup before shabu-shabu, which is very appetizing. It should be pointed out that the left and right courtyards may have added more monosodium glutamate to the original soup pot of beef bones, although it has the effect of improving the taste, but it has also caused many diners to be thirsty after meals.

The left and right courtyards are located in the shopping mall, and the interior decoration is full of Chaoshan decorations, which even Chaoshan people will find interesting when they see it for the first time. The waiter has a decent attitude, but sometimes he doesn't know how to be flexible. For example, at Raffles City, even if there are spare private rooms in the store, the waiter will lead a group of about 10 diners to the lobby to eat, which gives the diners a poor experience. At meal time, due to the hot business in the store, the waiters often do not take care of the needs of diners.
