Home Original Chicken responds to pre-made dishes

Recently, the fast food brand Lao Xiang Ji (Home Original Chicken) published an "Open Letter from Lao Xiang Ji to Consumers on Food Safety" on the Internet, publicly responding to whether the dishes are premade. The open letter stated that among the current Lao Xiang Ji meals, 70.6% are freshly cooked in the restaurant, 27.7% are semi-prepared, and 1.7% are reheated premade. The open letter also includes information such as restaurant supplier details, traceability files, and dish production processes. In addition, Lao Xiang Ji has decided to open two real-time monitoring live broadcast rooms, "Lao Xiang Ji Central Kitchen" and "Lao Xiang Ji Restaurant Kitchen", and welcomes consumers to "cloud monitor".

Previously, some consumers questioned Lao Xiang Ji because they were prejudiced against premade dishes, thinking that they contained a lot of additives, were high in oil and salt, and avoided them as much as possible. However, due to their stable taste and higher efficiency in serving, the catering industry is not completely opposed to premade dishes. According to the content of the open letter, Lao Xiang Ji restaurants make about 70% of their dishes on the spot, and the remaining 30% are semi-made dishes and reheated premade dishes, which also shows that the brand does not reject premade dishes themselves.

Lao Xiang Ji is a brand under Anhui Lao Xiang Ji Catering. It is a chain restaurant brand featuring Chinese fast food. It has more than 1,000 fast food restaurants across China. It started with raising native chickens and has realized a full industrial chain model from breeding to dining tables.

Chicken dishes are the signature of Lao Xiang Ji, among which chicken soup is the most representative. It uses Feixi old hens raised for 180 days and then stewed with Nongfu Spring water.
