Chapter 1414: Are The Readers Nowadays So Terrifying?
“Alright, I’ll be sure to keep that in mind.” Tony nodded with a smile. He was rather amazed that this human maiden wasn’t afraid of him.
Chaos City was indeed very special. One could see all the different species everywhere. Everyone was getting along harmoniously. He didn’t receive any weird looks since he got here. Even the elves wouldn’t avoid him or show animosity when they saw him.
Lola threw a wary glance at Tony as she tried to get the princess to stand next to her, but the few lava demons who were standing in front of her seemed to be even more ferocious. So, after considering all the factors, she kept her silence.
However, Abraham, who was standing in the other line, wasn’t worried at all. He, too, loved the ambiance in Chaos City, and Mamy Restaurant’s ambiance was like the epitome of Chaos City. It was an ambiance that was further improved by the rules.
The people were gathered here because of the delicacies. They put aside their own prejudices, accepted one another, and interacted as equals.
Such an opportunity would never present itself in Rodu. Given Vanessa’s and his status, nobody would talk to them as equals.
He could see that Vanessa also enjoyed such a lifestyle. Hence, in the letter that he sent to the king yesterday, he promised he would send Vanessa back personally after she spent another month in Chaos City.
“Mister, you don’t look like you are from Chaos City? Where did you come from? Did you specially come here for Mamy Restaurant?” Vanessa asked Tony curiously. Her curiosity that was suppressed for years slowly emerged after she came to Chaos City.
And she was particularly interested in others’ stories, so she would always find an opportunity to chat with the other customers while lining up.
The stories and experiences that she heard from these people were usually very different from those she read from the books written by the literati. They might be ordinary or exciting, but they were always more realistic and full of life.
“I am To—” Tony arranged his clothes, but he choked on his words as soon as he spoke.
He loved to introduce himself and then watch the other party reveal expressions of shock, surprise, or being graced by fortune after hearing his name.
But he was a person who came here to avoid the attention now, so he couldn’t reveal his identity. Who knew how many of his fans were in the lines, and if they would be trying to kill him.
“To?” Vanessa looked at Tony with bewilderment.
“Yes. I am Tomas. I’ve just arrived at Chaos City from the Demon Islands. I’ve heard this restaurant is quite good, so I came to try it out. But I didn’t come especially for it,” Tony continued. Well, he had no choice but to come up with a name first. He didn’t forget to add, “There is only one restaurant in this world that I would specially make a trip to, but it isn’t in Chaos City. It’s on Carapace Island of the Demon Islands.”
“Are you talking about the Ayi Crayfish Restaurant on Carapace Island?” Vanessa asked smilingly.
“Oh?! How did you know about it?!”
Tony leaped a step back and glared at Vanessa. Had this maiden recognized him?
Vanessa smiled. “I read Master Tony’s article in ‘Eat The World’ magazine yesterday, and Ayi Crayfish Restaurant of Carapace Island was mentioned in it. The spicy crayfish, garlic crayfish, and thirteen-spice crayfish made me so hungry in the middle of the night. He wrote exactly what you said earlier, if there’s a restaurant that he would specially pack up and travel to, it would be that one on Carapace Island.”
“Oh, I see.” Tony heaved a breath of relief. So, this maiden had read the article that he wrote. He couldn’t help smiling smugly.
As a food reviewer, his favorite praises were none other than that his words made people hungry. Perhaps this felt the same to the chefs who created dishes that were praised.
“I’ve heard many people were on their way there. If it doesn’t taste good, they’re going to organize teams to go hack up Master Tony.” Vanessa nodded.
“Are the readers nowadays so ferocious?” Tony stared in a panic.
“Haha. Didn’t the magazine have readers’ comments highlight every week? There seemed to be many food critics who were hacked because they had recommended the lousy dishes. Furthermore, I’ve heard there was a food critic who went on a date with a female fan who turned out to be a drag queen. In the end… In the end, that food critic disappeared for a period of time, and when he reappeared, his style of writing became rather effeminate.” Vanessa nodded. She seemed to transform into an entirely different person when she talked about the gossip in the culinary circles.
“Terrifying.” Fear flashed across Tony’s face. Had writing food reviews become so dangerous now?
“However, I like the articles that Master Tony wrote about seafood. I think he’s really the food reviewer who knows seafood the best in this world. But I do not agree with him when he wrote about the restaurant that is worth packing up and traveling to. That has to be Mamy Restaurant,” Vanessa said with conviction.
“How could that be. Master Tony has to be right. How could there be other food in this world that tastes nicer than the crayfish from Ayi Crayfish Restaurant?” Tony wasn’t convinced. Although this maiden was his fan, he wouldn’t back off when it concerned his principles.
“Seems like you’re a fan of Master Tony too?” Vanessa looked at Tony with a hint of surprise before continuing, “I feel Master Tony is very good, but his greatest problem is that he’s very prejudiced against other dishes. Furthermore, he only stays on the Demon Islands and refuses to explore other places, so there are still some limitations in his outlook. If he could come to Mamy Restaurant to try Boss Mag’s cooking for himself, I believe he would take back his words.
“Moreover, Boss Mag has released the braised crayfish recently and it is amazing. I believe it wouldn’t lose out to the crayfish from Ayi Crayfish Restaurant.”
“Impossible. How could there be any prawns in this world that taste nicer than the crayfish from Ayi Crayfish Restaurant? That is already the pinnacle of prawn dishes, and a pinnacle that can’t be surpassed.” Tony waved his hand in disbelief as he simultaneously lamented in his heart, It’s most likely a swan song too.
“It seems like we’re not able to reach a consensus. Then, we will resume our discussion after we ate the crayfish,” Vanessa said after some pondering.
“Then we will try it. Master Tony’s judgement is never wrong. He is the person who knows seafood best in this world, after all.” Tony chuckled a little disdainfully. An inland city that couldn’t even get fresh seafood. How dare it say it could have scrumptious crayfish that was comparable to Ayi Crayfish Restaurant’s?
Although Boss Hades had run away, he would be the one to defend the honor of Ayi Crayfish Restaurant!
People who had never eaten fresh seafood by the sea were not qualified to make judgement like this.
