A Stay-at-home Dad's Restaurant In An Alternate World - Chapter 408

Chapter 408: Eating Delicious Food is A Pleasure

“Miranda, that’s…” Gjerj looked at Miranda with a hint of urgency on his face, trying to formulate a reason to dissuade her from ordering the roujiamo and spicy grilled fish. If she were to eat those two dishes, she would probably go into early labor.

Mag looked at Miranda, and shook his head with a smile. “My apologies, but the roujiamo and spicy grilled fish aren’t very suitable for you at the moment as they’re too stimulating, so it may not be very good for the baby. However, you can try the tofu pudding if you’d like, and the braised chicken and rice and Yangzhou fried rice are still good options as well.”

“He’s right, Miranda, you should wait until birth before trying those two dishes.”

“Is that right?” Miranda was slightly disappointed, but she still nodded, and said, “Alright, then I’ll get a sweet tofu pudding and a savory tofu pudding.”

Gjerj turned to Mag with a grateful expression on his face.

“Sorry, but the tofu pudding is limited to one per person. The nutrition content in them is very high, and excessive consumption could lead to difficulties with digestion.” Madam shrugged in an apologetic manner. He wasn’t making up those rules. Even a normal person was advised to only have one tofu pudding per day, let alone a pregnant woman.

“Alright, then I’ll get a sweet tofu pudding, then a Yangzhou fried rice and a braised chicken and rice.” Miranda was still a little bit disappointed, but at the same time, she was happy to taste the Yangzhou fried rice and braised chicken and rice again.

“Sure.” Mag nodded.

“There’s so much good food! Can we really order whatever we want?” Jessica’s mouth gaped open in amazement upon hearing Amy’s description of all of the restaurant’s dishes.

Amy nodded before whispering the answer into Jessica’s ear. “Of course you can. Father says all of us can order whatever we want, and every dish is super delicious. Oh, by the way, a new dish is being released today, so you have to save some space in your stomach for that new dish at the end.”

“Alright, then I’ll eat whatever Amy eats. That way, I definitely won’t eat too much.” Jessica’s eyes lit up as she nodded.

“Jessica, don’t order that much.” Rebecca looked at the prices on the menu, and her eyes widened in shock. Even the cheapest dish on the menu cost 200 copper coins, and the most expensive spicy grilled fish cost up to 2,000 copper coins. Those prices were unimaginable to her.

“It’s alright, Jessica can order whatever she wants. This is a party, so the prices on the menus aren’t applicable,” Mag said with a smile.

Rebecca looked at Mag’s warm expression, then at Jessica’s expectant look, and hesitated momentarily before nodding with gratitude in her eyes. “Thank you.”

“I want a spicy grilled fish. I love fish, and the fish from Amy’s restaurant are all super big, so they must be super tasty.” Daphne’s eyes were glittering with anticipation.

Mag recorded everyone’s orders before entering the kitchen.

Miranda turned to Gjerj with a smile, and asked, “Honey, is it because you’re concerned for our child that you only bring back braised chicken and rice and Yangzhou fried rice for me every time?”

“I actually really wanted to taste those dishes with you as well, but Mag says they’re not suitable for pregnant women, so I didn’t dare to bring back any. I didn’t want to tell you about them, either, as that would only make you crave something that you can’t have. I lied to you, I’m sorry.” Gjerj gave Miranda a formal apology.

Miranda stroked Gjerj’s face with a warm smile, and replied, “What are you apologizing for, you dummy? For the sake of our child, I can resist any craving.”

Yabemiya brought out a platter of tofu puddings first. There were both sweet and savory puddings, and she placed them onto the tables according to the orders.

“Hmm! This sweet tofu pudding is so delicious! It melts in my mouth, and its flavor is amazing. Honey, why didn’t you tell me that there was such delicious food in Mag’s restaurant?” A blissful expression appeared on Miranda’s face after tasting her first spoonful of tofu pudding, but she then turned to Gjerj with a slightly displeased look.

“Mag says the tofu pudding is not available for takeaway, so…” Cold sweat began to bead on Gjerj’s forehead. Didn’t she just say that he had nothing to be sorry about?

“Then you could have accompanied me here to eat it.” Miranda harrumphed as she ate another spoonful of tofu pudding. Soon, her attention was focused entirely on the tofu pudding, and she didn’t have the time to blame Gjerj anymore.

“It’s as white as snow, and so soft and bouncy. What an amazing dish!” Jessica placed a spoonful of tofu pudding into her mouth, upon which her eyes immediately lit up.

She swallowed the mouthful of tofu pudding, and exclaimed, “Amy, your father is amazing!”

She had never tasted such delicious food before.

Rebecca ate her first spoonful of tofu pudding, and an incredulous expression also appeared on her face. She was surprised by the 200 copper coin price tag, but she had to admit that the dish was unbelievably tasty. It was the most delicious thing she had ever had aside from the braised chicken and rice.

Everyone was basking in the delicious flavor of the tofu pudding, while Yabemiya brought the next round of dishes, which included braised chicken and rice, Yang Zhou fried rice, and roujiamos.

“Miya, you go have a seat and enjoy your meal as well. Leave the rest to me.” Mag smiled as he took the platter of grilled fish from Miya’s hands.

“Alright, thank you, Boss.” Yabemiya smiled and nodded before taking a seat to enjoy her tofu pudding.

“Daphne, here’s your medium size mildly spicy grilled fish. It’s a little hot, so do be careful.” Mag smiled as he placed the grilled fish in front of Daphne.

The delicious spicy aroma coupled with the alluring scent of fish wafted through the air. The bright red juices were still bubbling from the effect of the lit alcohol stove under the platter, and the extravagant dish immediately captured everyone’s attention.

“That smells so good! I really want to have some!” Miranda immediately sat up, and gulped involuntarily at the sight of the grilled fish in front of Daphne.

However, right at that moment, her bulging stomach rumbled a little as if the little guy inside was trying to break out.

“Honey, can we order one as well? I only want a tiny little bite. Even our little baby is asking for some; she must really want to taste such a delicious dish too.” Miranda looked at Gjerj with a pitiable expression.

“No, Miranda. The fish is too spicy, and your stomach won’t be able to handle it.” Gjerj shook his head firmly.

“But… I really really want to eat it…” Miranda stared at Daphne as the latter sunk her chopsticks into the grilled fish.
