"Gulp." Luther's throat moved, and the Rou Jia Mo was swallowed. The meaty aroma filled his mouth, and after swallowing, it turned into a violent warm current that flowed through his blood. His blood was accelerating, and his whole spirit seemed to be rejuvenated with youthful vitality.
"Ah!" Luther couldn't help but let out a satisfied exclamation. The deliciousness was beyond compare, and he never expected it could bring such a special and comfortable enjoyment to his body. He had never eaten such delicious and special food in his life.
"Judging from your expression, it must be delicious, right?" Robert asked, looking at Luther, who was making exaggerated movements, as he picked up a piece of chicken. At first, Luther was very certain that the restaurant was cheating, but now he looked completely convinced. The contrast was quite comical.
"Mmm...uh-huh." Luther nodded, his mouth stuffed full of Rou Jia Mo, so delicious he couldn't stop eating.
"Then I'll try this Braised Chicken Rice to see what's so special about it." Robert put the chicken in his mouth, took a gentle bite, and the tender chicken and the thick chicken soup on the surface melted in his mouth. The extremely delicious chicken soup and the tender and refreshing chicken completely overturned his understanding of braised chicken.
Having been transferred from the City Lord's Mansion to the Food Association, Robert has an extremely high standard of appreciation for food. In his early years, he had eaten at all the restaurants, big and small, in Aden Square and was a regular customer of many of them.
"Although this chicken is Flaming Chicken, but it's a bit different from regular Flaming Chicken. The meat is firmer, but it's not overcooked or dry at all. The perfect heat control ensures the chicken is tender and flavorful. And the chicken soup is incredibly delicious. I've never tasted such delicious chicken soup before. It's rich but not greasy. It's absolutely top notch!" Robert's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but exclaim.
"You wouldn't believe it, this Braised Chicken Rice isn't just about the delicious chicken, the shiitake mushrooms added are incredibly precious. The chicken broth's unparalleled umami flavor comes primarily from these shiitake mushrooms, which sell for a hundred gold coins each outside. And in this bowl, Boss Mai has put in a full four!" Jimmy, who had spoken to them earlier and was at the same table, chimed in with a smile, demonstrating what he'd learned from Grandpa Karl that morning.
"Shiitake mushrooms?" Robert looked at the bowl with some curiosity, picked up a shiitake mushroom. It was a kind of mushroom he had never seen before. A special aroma wafted over, and the special flavor of the braised chicken came from this mushroom, a fragrant aroma that left a deep impression.
"A shiitake mushroom for 100 gold coins?" Robert put the shiitake mushroom in his mouth with a bit of skepticism. With a gentle bite, the chicken soup that had been absorbed burst out, and the ultimate umami flavor was perfectly interpreted in the fusion of the two aromas.
"This flavor surpasses a thousand kinds of seasonings. No other mushroom can taste so delicious. It deserves to be called the king of mushrooms!" Robert exclaimed. He had never heard of such a delicious flavor before, which shows how rare this shiitake mushroom is. It is a rare commodity and worth a hundred gold coins each!
Following Amy's example, Robert scooped a few spoonfuls of chicken broth onto the rice, then scooped up a spoonful of the golden red rice and put it in his mouth. With each chew, the delicious chicken broth and the sweet and delicious rice blended perfectly. He swallowed it in one gulp, and couldn't help but scoop up another spoonful and put it in his mouth. The taste was so delicious that he couldn't stop eating it!
"800 copper coins? Why does this price seem so low?" Robert thought to himself as he felt a warm current flowing through his stomach. All his doubts about the price had completely disappeared after tasting this delicious food. He even felt that it should be more expensive, since this was a shiitake mushroom that others said cost 100 gold coins each.
"So delicious! So tasty!" Luther put down the bag in his hand, still somewhat unsatisfied, his face flushed from the rush of blood, and couldn't help but exclaim.
Robert was too preoccupied to talk to him at this point, feeding himself mouthful after mouthful of Braised Chicken Rice, his face full of pleasure and enjoyment.
Luther didn't say much. He picked up the tofu pudding and took a bite. He was instantly captivated by the delicious tofu pudding. The sweet taste enveloped his whole body. This feeling was intoxicating. He had never thought that sugar could be so delicious.
"Give me another bowl of rice." Robert, who had unknowingly finished a bowl of rice, looked at the braised chicken that was still more than half full and said to Yabemia.
"Okay, one more bowl of rice." Yabemia nodded, the last half of which she said to Sally.
Sally glanced at Robert and Luther, nodding slightly to indicate that she had taken note, she didn't want to repeat the mistake she made that morning.
The two people who came with questions and wanted to expose the slip-selling fraud at Restaurant Mai Mi on the spot have completely forgotten their purpose and are so engrossed in the food that they can't extricate themselves.
"In that case, there shouldn't be any problem, right?" Mai Ge looked at Robert and Luther, who were enjoying themselves, and a smile appeared on his face. He felt strangely good about it.
Then his gaze fell on a girl in a black veil sitting alone in the corner. Whenever the restaurant opened, she would come early to queue up and then sit quietly in the corner eating a serving of tofu pudding and a serving of Yang Zhou Fried Rice. He couldn't help but be a little curious about what kind of person was behind that black veil.
Although the girl wears a veil that covers her entire head everyday, but it's clear that the colors and styles of her clothes are becoming fresher and brighter, which Mai Ge thinks is a good direction and change.
Gloria suddenly felt as if someone was watching her. She subconsciously looked up and her gaze passed through everyone in the restaurant, meeting Mai Ge's eyes through a black veil.
"Is he looking at me?" Gloria suddenly felt her heart race a little, and she felt inexplicably nervous, but she quickly dismissed the thought. "May be he just glanced this way casually. With so many guests, he certainly wouldn't look at someone who doesn't even dare to show the face."
Mai Ge looked away and continued cooking. He found many of the guests interesting, as he was seeing many different races for the first time, so he didn't pay them much attention.
"He probably wasn't looking at me." Gloria breathed a sigh of relief, but felt inexplicably disappointed, and continued to eat her tofu pudding with her head down.
"Wow, what a pretty big sister! Are you an elf or a flower fairy?" After finishing her meal, Amy, carrying the Ugly Duckling, wandered over to Lu Lu and Xi Xi's table and asked with shining eyes as she looked at Xi Xi.
