A Stay-at-home Dad's Restaurant In An Alternate World - Chapter 1229

Chapter 1229: Are You Still Coming Over Tonight?

This hot pot meal had changed the customers’ habitual thinking that they couldn’t be a part of the cooking process. It had also proved to the customers that their participation would also give them equally tasty food.

The innovative method of eating and the scrumptious experience that made people salivate had greatly raised the customers’ expectations for the hot pot.

But what made people feel horrible was that they could only watch and salivate as they had no chance of trying it tonight, because the designated hot pot area was still under renovation, and the actual opening date was still unknown.

“I feel Boss Mag has done that on purpose. This fellow is very bad.” Randy sighed. Although he was rather annoyed, he could do nothing about it.

“Boss Mag has an unbelievable creativity for cooking. It is a whole new method of eating. In order to let his customers accept and learn quickly, he did a demonstration himself. Isn’t this quality that an outstanding chef and restaurateur should possess?” Vanessa praised instead, and she looked at Mag, who went into the restaurant, with admiration.

“He already has a kid,” Abraham said carefully as he tried to guess her thoughts. It would also be an equally terrible affair if she fell in love with a chef.

“But, there are still so many good maidens lining up, hoping to be Little Boss’s stepmother.” There was a hint of envy in Randy’s voice.

“Oh, yes. That little elf is so adorable.” Vanessa couldn’t help but nod. She was overcome by Amy’s cuteness when she was eating earlier.

“Ahem. What do you want to eat today? It will be Uncle’s treat.” Abraham cleared his throat and changed the topic.

“I want to have eggplant with garlic sauce, which is that dish Derrick, the food critic, wrote about in the previous edition of ‘Vegetarianism’. I have been thinking about it for half a month, and even dreamt about it many times,” Vanessa said with anticipation in her eyes. She had left the palace because of this dish.

“That is indeed a scrumptious dish.” Abraham nodded. He was also fascinated with the delicious eggplant with garlic sauce that went so well with steamed rice for a period of time.

“‘Vegetarianism’!” Randy cocked his eyebrow. As a staunch supporter of the meatatarianism, he didn’t expect this young maiden to be bewitched by the vegetarian heretics. This would not do; he had to begin his mission of promoting meatatarianism right now.

“Miss Vansa, as a meatatarian, I am more inclined to recommend you the Mamy Restaurant’s meat dishes. Boss Mag’s roast beef kebab is known to be the best in the roast meat arena. His spicy grilled fish has subverted one’s imagination on the grilled fish. The fat but not greasy Peking duck, the sourish and spicy steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers, the beggar’s chicken that emerged from a mud casing… Meat dishes are rightfully the main characters in this restaurant and our lives,” Randy said with a sincere expression.

“Even though I think this fellow doesn’t always speak the truth, what he just said was true. In the Mamy Restaurant, the meat dishes are the real main characters.” Abraham nodded. He had gotten fatter after he arrived here. Thanks to the damn meat!

“But, I still want to try the eggplant with garlic sauce first,” Vanessa answered with a smile. “Of course, I am not going to miss out any of the restaurant’s delicacies, regardless if they are the meat dishes or vegetarian dishes.”

“This is a wise choice.” Abraham nodded. He liked Vanessa because her character resembled his. As long as the food was good, they wouldn’t care who made it or what ingredients were used to make it. They would simply eat it.

“But…” Randy still tried to say something.

“Has Mr. Randy tried the eggplant with garlic sauce before?” Vanessa asked.

“I did.” Randy nodded before awkwardly saying, “But, that was because the menu wrote ‘fish aroma’, I thought it was a meat dish[1]…”

“Was it nice?”

“It was delish.” Randy nodded with a complicated expression. Even though he hated to admit that, as a gourmand, he didn’t want to lie when it came to good food.

“Then, I will try all the dishes that Mr. Randy recommended earlier after I have the eggplant with garlic sauce,” Vanessa said with a smile as she was rather impressed with Randy’s honesty.

After Mag and the rest kept the stuff and went into the restaurant, they found Connie and Camilla staring at each other’s heads. They couldn’t help but ask with confusion, “What are you two doing?”

“We are thinking whose brain will be more delicious.” Connie raised her head and looked at Mag. “Isn’t the pig’s brain delicious?”

The restaurant descended into silence as everyone looked at Connie and Camilla with a complicated expression.

“In fact, your brains should be comparable to the pig’s brains.” Mag nodded.

The two of them heaved a sigh of relief at the same time.

It would be embarrassing if they lost to a pig.

“I have enough. Goodbye.” Camilla stood up and walked to the back kitchen.

“Goodbye. Big Sister Camilla.” Amy waved to Camilla before she suddenly recalled something, and asked, ” Are you still coming over tonight?”

“No, I am not.” Camilla blushed instantly and hastened her steps. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared within a black fog.

“Huh?” Everyone’s gazes landed onto Mag curiously. There was plenty of hidden information in Amy’s words.

“I am going to take a bath and change. Let’s get ready for business, everyone.” Mag walked to the stairs without giving anything away. It would only make things worse the more he tried to explain. The best solution was to simply walk away.

“Amy, did Camilla spend the night in the restaurant yesterday?” Miya’s gossipy soul began to burn with intensity.

Everyone began to look at Amy curiously.

“No.” Amy shook her head. It seemed like she got to keep this a secret for her father.

All of them weren’t convinced by Amy’s conflicting words, but it was going to be operation hours soon, so they didn’t continue to ask.

“Connie, send this helping of ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ to your master, and your job will be considered done today.” Mag came down from upstairs, wrapped up a helping of ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ in the kitchen, and passed it to Connie. “Learn from your master as much as you can.”

“Yes.” Connie took the ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ and nodded gravely. “I promise I will complete the mission.”

“And remember to use the door this time. Don’t keep scaling their walls.” Mag couldn’t help but remind Connie again.

Connie turned and said with resignation, “But, Master wants me to scale the walls. He said he wants to test how many levels I am able to access today.”

Mag raised his eyebrow slightly. It seemed like Connie’s master was not simple, either. He actually utilized Bastie Prison as a test field for his disciple. Since he was the deputy warden, Mag couldn’t comment much. “Alright, just follow your master’s instructions.”

Connie went out, fully suited up. Mag glanced at the clock which showed 5 o’clock, so he walked to the door and opened it wide. He smiled and said to the long line of customers, “Welcome to Mamy Restaurant.”
