Chapter 359 - Born in the Wrong Generation



Chapter 359: Born in the Wrong Generation

The tofu pudding slid down his tongue, and its delectable flavor instantly combined with the savory juices.

The fresh sides went great with tofu pudding. After he swallowed, the faint fragrance lingered in his mouth long after the mouthful of tofu pudding was already gone.

“What is this stuff made from? How can it be so delicious? There’s no way that ordinary soybean could produce such delicious food! It really is amazing!” Tonis stared at the tofu pudding in his bowl with wide eyes. The flavor was simply unbelievably delicious.

He couldn’t help but feed himself another spoonful, followed by another… He was completely unable to stop.

He’d been planning to defame and denounce the dish, but forgot all of that. He was completely captivated by the delicious flavor of the tofu pudding; it had been a very long time since he had basked purely in the enjoyment of eating. It was a very special and nostalgic feeling, and he felt like he was back in that past in his younger days.

Amy held in Ugly Duckling in her arms, and she looked at the two feasting old men as she murmured, “The two old fatsos say no, but their bodies are quite honest.”

Meaningful smiles also appeared on the faces of the customers upon hearing that. They had thought that the two of them would try to criticize the dish, but they had already been conquered by the bowls of tofu pudding.

“Let them experience the pain of only being able to eat one tofu pudding. Boss Mag’s restaurant is perfect, but if there’s one thing that I want to give them a negative review on, it’s the regulation that restricts each person to only one tofu pudding.” Harrison panted as he continued to feast on his spicy grilled fish. At the same time, he was appraising Warren and Tonis with an amused expression.

Warren put down his spoon just as Yabemiya was walking past, and he said, “Phew, that was delicious. Get me another sweet tofu pudding.”

“I also want a savory tofu pudding. No, I want two!” Tonis chimed in.

Warren turned to Tonis with an earnest expression, and suggested, “Tonis, I feel like you should try the sweet tofu pudding. The sweet syrup perfectly complements the delectable taste of the pudding itself. If you add a savory flavor to it, the effect won’t be as good.”

“President, I feel like you should try the savory tofu pudding before you say that. There are pickled vegetables and dried shrimp in it, which perfectly complements the flavor of the tofu pudding. The pudding itself is already a little sweet; I struggle to imagine what it would taste like if syrup were to be added.” Tonis shook his head in disagreement.

Yabemiya looked at the two debating fatso, and said, “Sorry, but each customer is only allowed one bowl of tofu pudding.”

“What?”

Both of them turned to Yabemiya in unison, and their voices also spiked a few octaves.

“Why is there a restriction? It’s not like we’re not going to pay. I’ll just get one bowl of savory tofu pudding, then.” Tonis furrowed his brows as he looked at Yabemiya. If it weren’t for the fact that they had ordered one of everything, he felt like he could eat 10 bowls of this tofu pudding with ease!

“There is demand from the customers, and your restaurant makes tofu pudding, so why won’t you sell it to us?” Warren was also quite confused.

Yabemiya stood up straight, and adopted a serious expression as she said, “That is a rule of our restaurant. It’s written quite clearly on the menu, so we hope you can understand.”

In contrast with how uneasy she had been, she was slowly becoming more and more confident. The rule had been established by Mag, so there had to be a reason behind it.

Warren took a glance at the menu, only to find that there really was such a rule inscribed upon it. A thought suddenly occurred to him then. If Mag were to combine those two into one dish, wouldn’t it be able to make it into the top 30 as well?

Tonis was about to say something again, but Warren held up a hand to stop him. He looked at Yabemiya with a smile, and said, “Alright, then please bring the rest of the dishes.”

“Sure, please wait a moment.” Yabemiya nodded before turning toward the kitchen.

“President, we should have kept persisting.” Tonis was a little indignant.

“What? Keep insisting so we can show everyone how much we love this food, even to the extent that we’re even willing to beg for it?” Warren looked at Tonis with a stern expression.

Tonis’ expression abruptly changed upon hearing that. He was suddenly reminded of what they had come to the restaurant to do, and realized that he had been completely thrown off track just by that bowl of delicious tofu pudding.

Even though he knew that there was no way this restaurant could make it back onto the rankings board, he still couldn’t help but compare the tofu pudding to the other dishes on the rankings. Even if it couldn’t claim the top spot, it would at least make it into the top five. Such delicious food was simply irresistible.

Warren was waiting expressionlessly for the next dishes to arrive. No one knew what he was thinking.

“Mag’s rules really are set in stone; he’s not even making any exceptions for the president of the Catering Association.”

“I hope they can find it in their hearts to put Mamy Restaurant back onto their rankings board tomorrow. Otherwise, their hearts must be pitch-black.”

“I’m not very optimistic about that. After all, they took the restaurant off the rankings today without any prior investigation.”

All of the customers smiled upon seeing that. Watching the president of the Catering Association falling prey to the rules of the restaurant struck them with a sense of satisfaction.

Soon, the Yangzhou fried rice, roujiamo, and braised chicken and rice were ready. The two of them were completely immersed in the dishes, and their faces were glowing with joy as they ate.

“Burp…”

Warren burped with a content expression as he put down the bowl in his hand; he had completely licked it clean. He looked at the spotless bowl for a moment before pushing it toward the center of the table with a slightly awkward expression.

It had been many years since he had last felt this way. He had thought that after visiting so many restaurants in the Aden Square, there was nothing in this world that he hadn’t tasted.

However, as one dish was brought out after another, he was treated to flavors that he had never tasted before. All of the dishes were new experiences to him, and he couldn’t help but look forward to the next dish.

It was difficult for him to believe that all those incredibly delicious dishes were made by the same chef. The owner really was a genius.

If this was 20 years ago, I’d place all this restaurant’s dishes in the top five of the rankings board without any hesitation. Warren looked at Mag as he prepared dishes in the kitchen, and heaved a forlorn sigh. He was a genius, one that could completely transform the gastronomic industry in the entire Aden Square. It was just a pity that he was born in the wrong generation.

Tonis also put down the bowl in his hands, and an expectant look appeared on his face as he said, “That was so delicious. I’m really looking forward to the spicy grilled fish now.”
