A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World

Chapter 859 - Woah!!!  



859 Woah!!!

The customers at the front of the line made their way into the restaurant with mixed emotions, but they didn’t immediately take their seats, as they were still rather hesitant about how to proceed.

“Those who wish to order stinky tofu can take a seat at one of the tables on the far left of the restaurant over there; the rest of you can sit wherever you like. Aside from today, stinky tofu will only be served during dinner service, and only 100 portions will be served each day, so it’s going to be a first come, first served arrangement,” Mag said with a smile.

The customers who had decided not to try the stinky tofu quickly took their seats, while the rest were still rather hesitant. Mag had given them quite a serious warning, but at the same time, his new dishes had never flopped before. If it really were both stinky and disgusting to eat, there was no way that he’d serve it in his restaurant.

“Hello, Miss Elizabeth,” Yabemiya greeted Elizabeth with a hint of surprise and elation on her face. Seeing as she was about to take a seat on the right side, she couldn’t help but urge in a quiet voice, “Stinky tofu is super delicious; I strongly recommend it.”

Elizabeth was rather taken aback upon hearing this, but after seeing the sincerity in Yabemiya’s eyes, she chose to sit on the far left side of the restaurant after some brief hesitation.

“There’s someone actually willing to try the dish?”

Elizabeth’s actions immediately attracted a lot of attention. Not only was she the first customer to have taken a seat on the far left, she was also an icy beauty.

Mag also cast a surprised glance at Elizabeth. Could she really handle such a foul odor? On top of that, she seemed to have changed her mind after Yabemiya had said something to her; were they that familiar with each other already?

Seeing as someone had led the way, many of the indecisive customers also made up their minds and sat on the far left.

Harrison sat down across from Elizabeth before giving her a polite and reserved smile. He was just a normal human being, but as a merchant, he had a sharp discerning eye, and he knew that despite this woman’s alluring beauty, she was not someone that he could mess with. She was the type of woman that would kill someone for doing anything that was even slightly over the line to her.

If it weren’t for the fact that there were no seats left on the far left side of the restaurant, he really wouldn’t want to sit here.

Sitting beside Elizabeth was Xixi, while Lulu sat across her.

“Hello,” Xixi greeted Elizabeth and Harrison with a smile as soon as she sat down. She then took a deep breath, and said, “Thank heavens we managed to get the last two seats. I can’t believe there are people who are actually hesitating about trying out Boss Mag’s new dish.”

“Hello to you too,” Harrison replied with a smile. As a regular customer of the restaurant, he was quite familiar with this couple, and their arrival at this table instantly made him feel a lot more relaxed.

“Hello,” Elizabeth also replied with a slight nod. Her gaze then lingered on Xixi and Lulu for a moment before she looked away. These two weren’t humans, but they weren’t elves, either, and she was struggling to identify them.

As a proud giant dragon, Elizabeth had never shared a table with humans before, but ever since she’d begun coming to Mamy Restaurant, she found herself regularly having to share tables with humans, elves, and even demons.

This restaurant seemed to have a mystical atmosphere that made all customers completely absorbed in the food they were eating, thereby forgetting all of their racial disparities and preconceived biases. In their eyes, only their food existed, and they didn’t care with whom they were sharing a table.

“I’ll get a sweet tofu pudding, a Yangzhou fried rice, and…” Elizabeth looked up at Yabemiya, and said, “A stinky tofu.”

All of the customers began to make their orders while Mag entered the kitchen and began cooking.

“Boss, should we go and taste Boss Mag’s new dish?” Kiel asked in an excited manner as he stood outside the restaurant.

“Isn’t it stinky? I hate stuff that stinks, so I’ll pass,” Mond replied with a shake of his head.

“Let’s look at the price first. The third group of our brethren is already on their way, and we have to prepare enough holy roujiamos for them. If we were to buy this new dish, it could mean that we wouldn’t have enough money to buy holy roujiamos,” Sargeras said with a cautious shake of his head.

At this moment, a customer beside them opened the menu, and said, “Stinky tofu is 300 copper coins per portion, just like roujiamo.”

“We’re buying holy roujiamos instead!” Sargeras immediately decided upon hearing that.

“I concur!” Kiel raised a hand with a serious look on his face.

Everyone else in the Burning Legion also nodded in agreement.

Most of the customers behind them in the line also decided against ordering this new dish. 300 copper coins wasn’t much, but if this stinky tofu really was abhorrently putrid and ruined their mood for the entire day, it would simply not be worth it.

Elizabeth’s Yangzhou fried rice and tofu pudding were brought to her first, but the stinky tofu was held back. Only after she’d finished both dishes did Yabemiya carefully carry a platter with a metal lid toward her.

All of the customers immediately turned their attention to the platter, craning their necks to see just what this stinky tofu looked like and whether it was actually as foul as Mag had made it sound.

However, the metal lid covered everything, making impossible for them to see the dish.

“Here’s your stinky tofu,” Yabemiya said with a smile as she set the platter down before Elizabeth, and then grabbed onto the handle of the lid.

Harrison drew back reflexively upon seeing this; he was feeling rather uneasy. He’d just had all this delicious food, and his happiness meter had spiked. If his mood were to be ruined by this dish, then that would be quite a travesty.

In contrast, Xixi drew closer to Elizabeth with a glowing expectant look in her eyes as she stared at the platter. She was a devout foodie who was determined to taste all the delicious cuisine across the entire continent even while running for her life. As long as the food tasted good, she didn’t care what it smelled like.

“I didn’t think there would really be people who want to eat stinky food in this world.”

“Indeed. I have great confidence in Boss Mag, but I just can’t imagine myself liking a stinky dish.”

“I’m a bit worried about whether the foul odor will spread to us and ruin our appetite after that lid is lifted.”

All of the customers were discussing quietly among themselves, and some of the customers who were still eating were growing rather concerned.

Elizabeth’s expression remained quite calm, and she seemed to be unconcerned, but there was an unmistakable hint of apprehension in her eyes. She looked up at Yabemiya, and thought to herself, She says it’s good, so it must be quite delicious, and it’s probably not going to smell all that bad.

Yabemiya gripped onto the handle of the lid, and then lifted it with a smile on her face.

An abhorrent odor immediately wafted through the air in all directions.

“Woah!!!”

Harrison sprang out of this chair and jumped back two meters, almost crashing into the table behind him as a result.

The bashful smile on Lulu’s face vanished, and he reared back reflexively, causing his chair to creak and groan as if it were about to fall apart.

Even the expectant Xixi immediately pinched her nose as her anticipation turned to shock and disgust.

“What?!”

Elizabeth’s calm facade completely shattered, and a wall of ice instantly rose up before her to cut her off from the table.
