Chapter 292 Game World 20
Sabakaya lowered his head in frustration when he saw his wife burying her head in her food and ignoring him. The next second, a spoon suddenly appeared in front of him.
He looked up and saw his wife, Kichuu, handing him a spoon. "Try it."
A hint of surprise flashed in Sabakaya's eyes, and a bright smile appeared on his face as he quickly took the spoon.
Kichuu pushed the curry rice toward Sabakaya.
She had actually stopped being angry a long time ago. She knew that her husband was just a little oblivious, not that he didn't love her.
Sabakaya used to run a fishing ground, and even though the ground was frequently attacked by pirates, he persevered to support his family.
Later, she had the idea of opening a restaurant, and at her urging, Sabakaya closed the fish farm and switched roles with her.
Sabakaya stays at home looking after the two children, occasionally helping out at the restaurant and quietly supporting her work. The two have weathered many storms together and supported each other for so many years, and Kichuu knows better than anyone else what Sabakaya has done for this family.
Sabakaya grinned from ear to ear and scooped up a spoonful of curry rice.
Wow! Everything this restaurant makes is delicious.
"Honey, this curry rice is absolutely amazing! If our shop could make curry rice this delicious in the future, business would definitely boom," Sabakaya mumbled between bites.
Kichu deliberately glared at him: "What? Is my cooking so bad?"
Sabakaya quickly put down her spoon and surrendered with both hands. "Oh dear, don't misunderstand. Your cooking is absolutely unique and delicious. My children and I love it. What I was saying was that this restaurant's curry rice has a unique flavor. Wouldn't it be even better if we could learn from it and make our curry rice just as popular? In my heart, your cooking is irreplaceable; it's the best food in the world."
Seeing Sabakaya's tense and anxious expression, Kichuu couldn't help but chuckle. "You're smart to know what's good for you."
Sabakaya breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his wife had calmed down, and then picked up his spoon and continued eating his curry rice.
Seeing him eating with a spoon and still wanting more, Kichuu slapped his paw and said, "Didn't you already eat? Why are you still eating?"
Sabakaya was slapped on the shoulder and had to stop eating. Looking at the curry rice on the plate, he couldn't help but lick his lips, looking like he wanted more.
Kichu rolled his eyes at him. "Order another serving if you want more."
Sabakaya immediately beamed with joy.
In the kitchen, Lin Xiaoqian was extremely busy preparing so many dishes, but fortunately, Zhuang Damao assisted her, and everything proceeded smoothly.
The first dish to be prepared was sauerkraut fish. The moment it was brought out in a bowl the size of a basin, it attracted everyone's attention.
The tangy and spicy aroma is irresistible. In the milky white soup, tender white fish slices are faintly visible, sprinkled with bright red chili pepper pieces, emerald green cilantro and scallions. Just looking at it makes one's mouth water.
Yingda exclaimed in surprise, "It's fish slices! I thought it was a whole fish!"
Sabakaya swallowed hard, recalling the delicious taste of the pickled fish he had that afternoon, and chimed in from the next table, "Right? That's what I thought at first too."
Jichu rolled her eyes at him; he was such a chatterbox. But she was also drawn in by the aroma of the pickled fish.
But she had already eaten almost all of it, and her husband and children seemed to be full as well. If she ordered another serving of sauerkraut fish, they probably wouldn't be able to finish it, so she hesitated whether to order one to try as well.
Village Chief Lozel picked up his chopsticks first, "Let's eat together, I can't finish such a big bowl."
He also invited the Kichuu family, saying, "Kichuu, Sabakaya, you and your family come and eat with us."
Kichuu declined the village chief's offer, then turned to see Sabakaya staring unabashedly at the village chief's sauerkraut fish. He couldn't help but gently pinch his arm and whisper, "Look at you, so greedy. If you want some, we'll order some later. Don't just stand here staring at the village chief."
Sabakaya was pinched and winced in pain.
After greeting the others, Lozer picked up his chopsticks and took the first bite of a fish slice. He chewed it slowly, and soon a satisfied expression appeared on his wrinkled face. "Hmm, this fish tastes really good. The fish meat is so tender when it's freshly caught, and with the sourness of the pickled cabbage, it's simply perfect."
Yingda took a bite of the sauerkraut fish and nodded repeatedly: "Mmm... this sour taste... is so addictive. I think I could eat several more bowls of rice with this fish."
As for Amez and Numasino, they were already so engrossed in their food that they didn't even look up.
Before long, the braised fish chunks ordered by Yingda were served. The fish used was black carp with few bones, cut into neat small pieces. The fish was bright red and tempting, with a rich sauce evenly coating each piece of fish, and it also gave off a fragrant aroma.
"Wow, these fish pieces look delicious." Yingda's eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to pick up her chopsticks, grab a piece, and put it in her mouth to taste.
The fish is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a caramelized aroma from being pan-fried, and the inside is fully infused with flavor, a savory and fragrant taste that goes perfectly with rice.
Village Chief Lozel also picked up a piece, chewed it carefully, and nodded, saying, "This braised fish is indeed very good. It has few bones, making it easy to eat. The sauce is rich but not greasy, and it has a completely different flavor from sauerkraut fish."
He couldn't help but admire the chef who could make such delicious food. He also secretly wondered how many tourists would come to taste it if his village could make such dishes.
It's important to know that all the shops in the village were opened at His Highness Zelda's suggestion, in order to attract tourists and generate revenue for the village.
His Highness Zelda hasn't been to the village for a while. They can't just keep waiting for His Highness's guidance; they have to find their own way to develop the village's industries.
Village Chief Lozel thought the food at this restaurant was quite good, and he would have a good talk with Kichuu later.
Before long, the spicy grilled fish ordered by Yamesi was served. The grilled fish was placed on a special iron plate, still sizzling with heat. It was covered with side dishes such as potatoes, bean sprouts, and bean curd sheets, and sprinkled with peanuts, sesame seeds, and cilantro as garnish. It had a numbing and spicy aroma that was completely different from the sour and spicy flavors, constantly stimulating everyone's taste buds.
Ames swallowed the saliva that had been tingled by the spicy aroma and asked, "Is this the grilled fish I ordered?"
Shouldn't grilled fish be skewered on a fork and grilled over a fire? Why was it served in a hot pan like an iron plate, along with so many other dishes?
Jiang Shuang noticed his hesitation and explained, "Our restaurant offers many ways to cook grilled fish. This is one of the ones you ordered: spicy grilled fish. We grill the fish first, then pour on the stir-fried side dishes and sauce, and then heat it on the stove before serving. This allows the flavors of the various ingredients to blend together, making the taste more complex and layered."
