"So...what is this place..." Lin Yi clutched his chest and watched Betty warily. He rembered what had just happened, but because he rembered, he felt that this restaurant was very abnormal.
After all, he had just witnessed the wooden door of this restaurant appear on a wall. This filled Lin Yi’s heart with fear, and in fact, if there had been any other choice just now, he wouldn’t have co here.
Lin Yi glanced at Betty’s wings, which looked very real, not fake at all. Then this person must truly be a demon, right? But probably only a demon would have thods like these.
"This is Dream Restaurant, respected guest. Would you like to eat sothing?" Betty said without noticing the direction of Lin Yi’s gaze, smiling at him.
"A restaurant? Sorry, I don’t eat out." Lin Yi shook his head then looked around, stretching out a foot to tap the floor next to him. Good, it was a solid floor, so there probably weren’t any traps.
"Our restaurant also has other beverages, fruits and such. Would you like to try so?" Betty was not discouraged but chose to press the advantage instead.
However, Betty’s tone was too hurried, which made Lin Yi slightly vigilant. The restaurants he had been to before, if you didn’t eat, then you just didn’t eat. The waiters wouldn’t say much more, but Betty was...
Although rare, there were places like that. But combined with the magical way this restaurant appeared, Lin Yi felt that if he didn’t agree to eat sothing, it might bring him so unnecessary trouble.
"Alright...then show the nu." Lin Yi was prepared to see all kinds of bizarre items. After all, demons usually eat souls, right?
Moreover, since she was a succubus, could it be the nu was to eat himself?
Lin Yi shivered at the thought. He was still a virgin, and he feared he couldn’t withstand the succubus’s assault.
"Guest, here is your nu." Betty handed the nu to Lin Yi, but he didn’t take it imdiately and slled it warily, making Betty’s hair stand on end. Could this person be a gentleman?
"Thank you..." After confirming there was nothing suspicious in sll or content, Lin Yi finally took the nu and then flipped through it. Good, there were all sorts of normal dishes, and Lin Yi even saw braised noodles, a dish he often made at ho.
Lin Yi licked his lips. Braised noodles, huh... He wondered how theirs tasted. He always felt that, aside from his own, nobody else’s braised noodles were up to par, even those from the shops.
"Then give a serving of the braised noodles, thanks." Lin Yi decided that, even if there were poison in the noodles, being able to taste his favorite food before dying seed like not too bad a deal.
"Manager, a bowl of braised noodles!" Betty shouted towards the kitchen.
"Right away," Chen Ze nodded, then rolled up his sleeves. Although he had put the braised noodles on the nu, this was the first ti anyone ordered them.
Lin Yi sneakily glanced at the kitchen and relaxed quite a bit, at least it seed to be a human cooking, not so demon with magma flowing through its head.
Chen Ze stood in the kitchen. He didn’t ntion the incident just now to Lin Yi, thinking it was just being helpful. Moreover, saving soone’s life also brought a sense of achievent, and Chen Ze quite liked this feeling of accomplishnt.
"Braised noodles, hmm... I need to prepare these ingredients," Chen Ze pulled out the Space Stone and took out the things he needed to make braised noodles.
A bowl of braised noodles can vary greatly depending on the location. For example, in Sun Moon City, one popular thod is to add a bit of braised tofu, though other braised ingredients can be added too. However, braised tofu remains the top choice.
Chen Ze lifted the lid of the braising pot that had not been used in a long ti, placed a piece of tofu inside, and filled it with water and braising spices, then began to cook the noodles.
The noodles required for braised noodles are slightly different from those for soupy noodles. First, you cannot use overly mushy noodles, as they would make the braised noodles disgusting, akin to slurping up snot. The best braised noodles must be firm, non-sticky, and easy to separate. Only such braised noodles can be deed delicious.
After the noodles were cooked, Chen Ze had already prepared the seasonings. Thanks to Quadruple Speed, he also took out the braised tofu. As soon as he did, he slled a rich braising aroma, which was quite intense but not pungent—an auspicious sign.
He scooped the noodles into a bowl, added the other items, and finally cut the braised tofu into small pieces before adding it in. A bowl of finely-rated braised noodles was freshly made.
Betty quickly served this bowl of braised noodles and set it in front of Lin Yi.
"It slls really nice," Lin Yi mused as he looked at the bowl of braised noodles.
The aroma was fragrant, although not as much as his own cooking, yet Lin Yi felt that among all the eateries he had visited around, this braised noodle was already top-notch.
After hesitating for a mont, Lin Yi still picked up his chopsticks. If he waited too long and the noodles cooled, it could affect the taste, but mostly, Lin Yi felt sowhat resigned.
Lin Yi skillfully mixed the noodles and then picked up a mouthful of braised noodles with his chopsticks and tasted them ticulously.
First ca a touch of saltiness, mild, followed by spiciness, accompanied by a rich aty and oily fragrance, which was quite satisfying.
"The taste is passable... The braised tofu is the best I’ve had, but the seasonings are not quite there," Lin Yi ate quickly and finished in no ti, then picked up the rice soup Betty had placed on the table and took a sip.
"So, do you have a better way to pair ingredients?" Chen Ze asked upon hearing Lin Yi’s comnt. His phone had lost internet connection, so he wasn’t able to continue looking up recipes and unexpectedly heard the custor’s critique.
"Actually... I do," Lin Yi hesitated for a mont, but still answered Chen Ze’s question.
"Then can you tell about this pairing, or perhaps make a bowl for to taste?" Chen Ze was curious. He also liked braised noodles, and it was with great effort that he figured out the recipe to feed his dad.
"Well... okay," Lin Yi nodded, then followed Chen Ze into the kitchen, told him what he needed, and then made a bowl of braised noodles in front of Chen Ze.
The flavor was not strong, at least not as fragrant as Chen Ze’s. Chen Ze didn’t dismiss it and instead took a bite with his chopsticks.
Chen Ze was stunned. If one were to go by the System’s rating, the taste of this bowl of braised noodles would certainly be deed perfect. Could it be that this custor was also a great chef from the Gourt World?
