Chen Ze didn’t notice Kakashi’s gaze, since he was currently focusing on Naruto and Lafra. For so reason, Lafra seed a tiny bit surprised.
"How does it feel?" Chen Ze looked at Lafra and asked curiously.
"It’s quite good. Naruto truly is a child with exceptional talents. The wind elent within him has beco increasingly strong, and it even surprised a little," Lafra said with a gentle smile. Chen Ze wasn’t sure if it was his own misperception, but he always felt like Lafra was acting like a mother right now.
Thinking of this, Chen Ze rembered what Lafra told him, that he could beco a father now. So with that said, could he possibly hit a ho run?
"Manager, what do we have to eat today?" Kakashi spoke up, feeling the need to intervene; otherwise, the whole restaurant reeked of the sour scent of romance.
"I want ran! The father-in-law’s ran!" Naruto imdiately raised his hand, his face beaming with joy.
"In that case... it all depends on what you would like to eat, Kakashi. There’s ran, braised noodles, and other dishes. Why don’t you take a look at the nu first?" Chen Ze glanced at Betty, who then hurried over and handed the nu she was holding to Kakashi.
"Hmm, thank you." Kakashi browsed the nu. According to what the Third Hokage and Naruto said, everything at this restaurant tasted very good, with the condition that you shouldn’t ask for any particularly strange flavors.
Like spicy flavors or others, as it couldn’t be guaranteed what taste Chen Ze’s cooking would result in. However, ordering from the nu was definitely a safe bet.
"Then I’ll have a serving of curry pork chop rice, and a cup of sake... Do you have sake?" Kakashi asked Chen Ze, his interest in drinking sake a spur-of-the-mont decision, but he hadn’t seen this drink listed on the nu.
"As for sake, I actually don’t have any right now, I didn’t prepare any sake here. But there are other drinks, would you like to try sothing different?" Chen Ze looked at Kakashi and asked hesitantly.
"In that case..." Kakashi was unsure how to choose, because in reality, he wasn’t very fond of other drinks, and in his mind, sake was more to his taste.
"Leave this to , dear," Lafra said, lifting her head and looking earnestly at Chen Ze.
Then Chen Ze rembered the cocktail that Lafra made last ti, which was an excellent concoction from every perspective.
So Chen Ze promptly agreed to Lafra’s request, and Kakashi, for so reason, directly concurred. Chen Ze, however, wasn’t concerned and returned to the kitchen to continue preparing the food that needed to be made today.
As for Naruto, Chen Ze knew what to make for him. In fact, it wasn’t a difficult task, so Chen Ze cooked quite quickly.
However, while Chen Ze was cooking, he looked over at Lafra who was by his side.
Lafra had insisted on mixing drinks in Chen Ze’s kitchen, so he had specifically allocated an area for her. Lafra was focused, continuously mixing the drinks.
Chen Ze had a pretty good idea of what Lafra intended. Given Lafra’s current activities, it appeared she was planning to be a cocktail-mixing landlady in Chen Ze’s restaurant. He smiled to himself, as the idea seed quite good indeed.
Chen Ze lowered his head, as he needed to focus on making the ran that Naruto had requested.
For so reason, Naruto was particularly fond of eating ran, even though Chen Ze originally felt that a transcendent level of curry pork cutlet rice was more suited for Naruto. But since Naruto had asked for ran, Chen Ze wouldn’t make anything else.
"Well, let think, if I just make a transcendent ran for Kakashi, I always feel that it doesn’t seem quite right. So, should I make a curry ran for Naruto as well..." Chen Ze pondered, holding a kitchen knife.
To be honest, Chen Ze had always thought that ran should be made in the Japanese style. However, even though there are many different types of ran in Japan, Chen Ze didn’t know how to make many of them, which caused him a lot of distress.
It wasn’t until Chen Ze suddenly rembered so quirky news he read before. It ntioned that Huaxia’s bubble tea had caused a huge sensation after reaching Japan, with countless Japanese girls becoming addicted to its taste. Even Japan’s largest Extre Path Organization started selling bubble tea.
Originally, this news was relatively normal until Chen Ze discovered another problem. There was a creation called "bubble tea ran," a dark cuisine that later erged.
However, the Japanese restaurant that made it explained that there were quite a few custors ordering this ran, and there were also many repeat custors. This made Chen Ze fall into deep thought, wondering whether there was sothing wrong on his part or if Japanese people had a unique taste.
As for bubble tea, Chen Ze had certainly tried it; he rembered a colleague from his office who would fix herself a cup of bubble tea every afternoon, which could be described as true love.
"Forget it, since there is such a thing as bubble tea ran, then making curry ran shouldn’t be too strange." Chen Ze consoled himself at that ti, and now he started thinking about how to make curry ran.
When it cos to curry, what cos to mind for many people is the cold... ahem, no, the thick color and consistency of curry.
Curry is delicious to eat, but it doesn’t seem very suitable for making ran. If you asked a hundred people who have eaten Japanese-style ran about the most distinctive feature of Japanese ran, many would say the soup.
So, curry soup? Chen Ze felt that although it wasn’t inedible, the rich flavor of curry would make many side dishes lose their appeal, especially when added to ran. The entire soup base would be dominated by the curry flavor, overshadowing everything else.
"Such a vexing issue..." Chen Ze touched his chin, a bit troubled.
"It seems my dear is in a bit of a pickle, hmm?" Chen Ze felt a refreshing fragrance behind him and turned his head to see Lafra smiling at him.
"Lafra, you... finished mixing?" Chen Ze was a little surprised; Lafra was indeed quick at preparing drinks.
"Yeah, I looked back and saw you looking all worried~" Lafra said, her playful smile making her look incredibly cute.
"I am worried, but I haven’t..." Chen Ze’s words trailed off as he caught sight of the bottles behind Lafra, so many of them...
Chen Ze suddenly realized he had co up with so solutions.
