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

Chapter 357: I’ll… Get One of Everything

“Where’s the young mistress?”

In the city lord’s castle, there was a room with pink decor and pink furniture. Michael was standing in the room, and he was looking at the pile of pillows that had been stuffed under the blankets with a slightly angry expression.

A maid stood beside him with a slightly fearful expression, and explained, “The young mistress… she said she wasn’t feeling well, so she went to bed, and then… Well, as you can see, Master, we don’t know where she is, either.”

The young mistress was always sneaking out like this, and the city lord never pinned the blame on them in the end, but it was difficult to remain calm in the face of his fury.

“Perhaps the young mistress went out to eat something again. She should be back soon,” another maid chimed in. She shared a closer bond with the young mistress, so she knew that Vivian had snuck out for some food. However, what she didn’t expect was that the city lord would suddenly return home earlier; he wanted to have a meal with his daughter and wife, thus leading to the current situation.

“You can go downstairs. I’ll wait for her here.” The rage on Michael’s face receded as he dismissed the two maids. There was a hint of resignation in his eyes. He knew what kind of personality his daughter had. She refused to listen even to him, so how were two maids supposed to keep her in check?

“Yes.” The two maids immediately scurried downstairs as if they had been absolved of a cardinal sin, closing the door behind them as they left.

She must be craving some foods again. She’s had too much medicine over the years, and there are too many things that she’s not allowed to eat… Whom can I go to to cure her? Michael sighed as he sat alone in the room. The wrinkles at the corners of his eyes appeared especially pronounced in that moment. The powerful lord of Chaos City appeared slightly frail and exhausted.

…

Boss is such a good person. Yabemiya stared at Mag’s departing figure, and warmth flowed through her heart. With Mag standing beside her, she never had to worry about any doubts directed toward her half-dragon bloodline. He was like an umbrella that shielded her from the rain.

Sally took a glance at Yabemiya before making her way to the kitchen with the dishes in her hands. That was also the reason why she was gradually falling in love with this place. She didn’t have to worry about any politics or anyone stabbing her in the back. All she had to do was focus on her daily tasks.

“So he’s just going to leave us hanging like this?” Tonis looked on as Mag entered the kitchen. He had thought that they would take higher priority, and that Mag would organize them seats at the very least. However, that was not the case, and they were being asked to line up like normal customers.

“Just imagine yourself as a customer. Perhaps we’ll really be able to taste something different today.” Warren was quite calm and collected in contrast. He was observing the customers around him, and he could see the blissful expressions on their faces as they enjoyed their meals. Those expressions didn’t lie.

Back when he’d gone to dine at restaurants with Lorry, the latter had taught him how to determine whether a customer was truly enjoying their meal from their facial expressions. That was an important skill in their line of work as only food that could bring enjoyment to customers was truly delicious food.

As such, he was slightly surprised by the expressions on the faces of the restaurant’s customers. Never in any restaurant had he seen all customers so immersed in their food that blissful expressions were appearing involuntarily on their faces.

Everyone was enjoying the delicious food that they were expecting; that much was apparent from their facial expressions. Warren had thought that it was impossible to see something like this in a restaurant, but it was taking place right before his eyes.

Soon, their eyes fell on Schonard, who was eating an absurdly large fish. From the section of the skeleton that had been revealed, they could tell just how large a fish it must have been initially. However, that fish was close to being completely devoured by that young man.

What was even more curious was that as he ate, white smoke was rising from his head. All of his clothes appeared to have been drenched with water, and his lips were so swollen and red that they appeared a little purple. Despite that, his chopsticks simply refused to rest, and he panted heavily as he ate. He was also completely immersed in his own world with his grilled fish.

“What fish is that young man eating?” Warren turned to Yabemiya with a curious expression. He had never seen fish cooked that way, and it was also the first time he was seeing a dish that was still being heated even after being served onto the table.

Furthermore, that dish wasn’t one of the five Mamy Restaurant dishes on the rankings board, so it was most likely a new dish.

“That’s the spicy grilled fish; he picked the insanely spicy level,” Yabemiya explained. Her demeanor had cooled significantly after discovering that they were the president and vice president of the Catering Association. She was furious that their restaurant had been removed from the rankings.

“Heh, insanely spicy level? How spicy is it? It doesn’t look all that spicy to me.” Tonis pursed his lips with disdain.

“I’m not sure exactly how spicy it is myself. You’ll know when you taste it, though,” Yabemiya said with a smile.

“Alright, then I’ll get an insanely spicy fish.” Tonis felt like he was being looked down on by Yabemiya, and immediately tried to prove a point.

“The spicy grilled fish has small, medium, and large sizes. Which size would you like?” Yabemiya asked.

Tonis hesitated momentarily before replying, “I’ll get a medium size.”

“Alright, we’ll bring on the food once you two get seated.” Yabemiya nodded. If it were another customer, she would remind them that the insanely spicy level was not something an ordinary person could handle. However, she didn’t feel like extending that courtesy to such a despicable man.

“Tonis, when did you start eating spicy food?” Warren chuckled.

“I’m not actually a fan of spicy food, but I feel like this restaurant is merely trying to pull the wool over our eyes. What’s this about insanely spicy? I reckon it’s all a ruse.” Tonis gave an unconcerned smile.

“That might not be the case.” Warren shook his head as he looked at Schonard. However, seeing as that young man was still unwilling to put down his chopsticks despite how spicy his fish was, it had to be quite a delicious dish.

After waiting for a long time, Warren and Tonis finally managed to get seats. They were seated next to a big minotaur demon, and Tonis wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He was feeling immense pressure just from sitting next to the demon. Thankfully, the latter was immersed in a bowl of soft white tofu pudding, and didn’t even take a glance at Tonis.

“Tonis, what do you want to eat aside from the grilled fish?” Warren opened the menu. He’d already known the prices in advance, so he wasn’t too surprised by what he saw.

Tonis hesitated momentarily before a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he replied, “I want… one of everything.”
