My Restaurant's Guests are All Abnormal

Chapter 490: Chapter 350 The Treatment Method for Dragon Worms

Chen Ze licked his lips. How to describe the taste of the Dragon Worm? Extremely sweet and fragrant, perhaps a common trait among creatures composed of magic power. The flavor was remarkably satisfying, yet this also presented a rather troublesome issue—Chen Ze couldn’t quite shake the feeling of uncertainty.

Unlike Bill Beef, the taste of Dragon Worms was just too peculiar. Like stinky tofu that makes most people think of its overpowering stench, extraordinary ingredients like this posed a challenge in terms of preparation and cooking technique.

The pairing of ingredients, the selection of spices—all pose their own set of challenges. If not handled well, a potentially perfect dish could end up scoring merely fifty out of a hundred, a real test of a chef’s fundamental skills.

However, Chen Ze immediately thought of the almighty Baidu. While it was impossible to find ways to cook Dragon Worms there, by drawing parallels, Chen Ze felt that he might glean some inspiration from other insect-based dishes to help him deal with the Dragon Worms.

"Clear Cicada Pupae Soup..." Chen Ze looked at one bizarre dish after another, his mouth twitching at the sight. For the majority of girls, merely glancing at these dishes could cause discomfort.

"It might be worth a try," Chen Ze pondered for a moment. He thought it could be an interesting experiment, especially using them to make a soup, though he had no idea how it would taste.

But before Chen Ze could start experimenting with a pot of Clear Water Dragon Worm Soup, he heard the tinkling of wind chimes and decided to stop and wait to see what the customers needed.

"Welcome to the Dream Restaurant, Miss Alice and Mr. Jack~" Betty walked up with a beaming smile, then took Alice’s hand and found a place to sit down.

"Yo, little Betty, so full of energy today as well, I really admire you," Alice said with a laugh, taking a sip of her lemon water and nodding in satisfaction.

"Sister, you should know that Betty is a succubus. Remember, devils usually have quite an age on them, so in truth, Betty might actually be older than you," Jack rolled his eyes, impressed with his sister’s insistence on acting as the older sibling to everyone, just because she had been to Ghost Street once.

"You little brat, if I hadn’t saved you from that guy’s claws, you would’ve been gutted by now!" Alice glared at Jack and then twisted her wrist in annoyance.

Has he grown too bold because it’s been too long since she last chastised him? freewebnoveℓ.com

"Alice, Jack, what would you like to have today?" Chen Ze came out, sensing the situation might escalate into an all-out brawl if he didn’t intervene.

"I’ll deal with you later!" Alice rubbed her fists and then glanced over the menu.

Jack shook his head helplessly, his sister’s violence was probably why she was still unmarried.

"Boss, I’ll have the Iceberg Fresh Mountain again. Then, two glasses of Lai Mei, and if there’s fried chicken, I’d like some of that too," Jack quickly decided on his order.

"And what about Alice?" Chen Ze then looked at Alice, who had a look of ’I’m suffering from choice paralysis’ on her face.

"I... but always eating the same thing can get a bit tiresome, so, Mr. Manager, just give me a dish that you recommend," Alice decided, slamming her hand on the table so hard that the utensils jumped.

"Sure, please wait a moment," Chen Ze smiled and nodded, then returned to the kitchen to start preparing the dishes for Jack and Alice.

Chen Ze was quite fond of Jack and Alice, not only because they were regular customers, but also because he really appreciated the dining fees they brought with them.

The items with magical effects always filled Chen Ze with wonder, but currently, the most useful thing was probably the video recorder that helped immensely with reviewing and other purposes, its effectiveness undeniable.

"Jack’s fried chicken will just be the paper-wrapped fried chicken, and for Alice... paper-wrapped fried chicken with five orders of Goubuli buns, and then pair it with a slice of chocolate dream cake," Chen Ze thought for a while and quickly decided on what to make today.

First, Chen Ze took out an ice fish, then began to slice it for sashimi, the bones could be used for soup stock, which would last quite a while. Chen Ze was very satisfied with it.

After preparing Iceberg Fresh Mountain, Chen Ze let Betty take it out first. After all, sashimi is usually best eaten as soon as possible; leaving it out too long would make it less fresh.

"Then let’s start frying the chicken and meanwhile get ready to make the chocolate dream cake," Chen Ze was full of enthusiasm.

"I mean... sis, can you not always pick out my food?" Jack looked at Alice’s swiftly moving chopsticks, somewhat speechless.

If she wanted to eat that badly, couldn’t she just order her own portion? She always had to eat his, making Jack feel like his happiness from eating delicious food had significantly diminished.

"I’m just helping you share the burden," Alice had no thought of shame; it had always been this way since they were little. Besides, Jack had eaten her food plenty of times too.

"Sigh... Having a sister like you... I’m just so tired..." Jack covered his face in pain, full of regret.

"Betty, serve the dishes." Since most of the ingredients were prepared in advance, Chen Ze was very quick, and it wasn’t long before everything was ready.

And the chocolate dream cake had also turned out perfectly, something Chen Ze himself was very satisfied with.

"This cake... smells so good..." Alice sniffed, besides the aroma of fried chicken and Goubuli buns, there was the pleasant scent of the cake.

"I smell alcohol; I guess it’s like a Bailey’s sweet cake," Jack glanced at the chocolate dream cake and then continued to eat his fried chicken.

Although Jack liked sweets himself, he was too proud to compete with his own sister for food—it was beneath the dignity of a Magician!

"Ah, I can’t resist anymore!" Alice tore off a piece of the cake and shoved it into her mouth.

The exceptionally delicious flavor instantly conquered Alice, and she felt this slice of cake deserved to be ranked first among all the sweets she had ever eaten, even the mango mousse she had earlier couldn’t compare.

"So... so delicious..." Alice happily covered her cheeks, this slice of cake was simply a supreme delicacy.

"..." Jack swallowed his saliva, as Alice began eating the cake, the aroma in the air grew even richer.

"Little brother~" Hearing this voice, Jack dropped his head in agony.

Here she comes, here she comes, the evil woman has arrived!

"Do you want to eat it? Such a sweet and delicious cake—if you miss this village, you won’t find another shop like it," Alice’s voice sounded to Jack just like that of a devil from Hell.
