My Restaurant's Guests are All Abnormal

Chapter 543: Chapter 403 Blue Fatty!

Chen Ze felt a bit mentally exhausted, and though he was truly down with a cold, for some reason, Joichiro Yukihira seemed to have a big problem with him. This time, Yukihira pushed him to the brink, causing Chen Ze great suffering.

"Um... Boss, are you okay?" Betty looked at Chen Ze, a bit concerned.

Because right now, Chen Ze looked like someone who had been squeezed dry, as if the words "not a single drop left" were written all over his face.

"I’m fine, did you encounter any issues after you went back?" Chen Ze asked Betty.

Yesterday, Lafra planned to give Betty a new magic protection necklace, but she was so sleepy that she forgot, leaving Chen Ze somewhat speechless.

"Not at all, Boss, after I went back yesterday, everything was super good, and Lindsay also said there were no problems." Betty smiled happily, feeling good to be cared about.

"That’s good, go take a shower then. Meanwhile, I’ll make you a bowl of breakfast." Chen Ze checked his phone, which showed it was already past ten.

But for now, no other customers were coming in, which eased Chen Ze’s load quite a bit. If other customers had come in, they might have seen how miserably Yukihira had trained Chen Ze.

"Okay~" Betty nodded and then trotted upstairs.

Chen Ze watched Betty’s retreating figure, shook his head, and thought that this succubus would forget everything when food was mentioned. He even wondered if someday, if there was a chef surpassing him tempting Betty with gourmet food, whether she could resist the temptation.

"I’ll make Guoba Meat then. Speaking of which, this is a renowned dish from the Northeast, but I haven’t had it before, so let me check the recipe later." Chen Ze twisted his body, loosening up his somewhat stiff muscles, then stood up and began preparing to make the Guoba Meat.

"Let’s see... I have all these seasonings, but it seems I’m lacking something called Heilongjiang rice vinegar..." Chen Ze was a bit vexed.

The preparation method for Guoba Meat isn’t very complicated, but an authentic dish requires Heilongjiang’s rice vinegar, an important factor in determining the quality of the Guoba Meat.

The acidity of Heilongjiang rice vinegar is mild and facilitates coloring. When blended with white sugar, the sour and sweet proportions become even more perfect, making the Guoba Meat tastier. However, Chen Ze was missing this Heilongjiang rice vinegar in his stock.

If he used a different vinegar to make the Guoba Meat, it would either be too sour or lack a nuanced tartness. Although Chen Ze didn’t quite understand why acidity needed to have nuance, since the recipe said as much, he didn’t feel it was right to try a different method.

"Forget it, I might as well do it tomorrow since I probably won’t have time to buy Heilongjiang rice vinegar today." Chen Ze shook his head, certain that Sun Moon City didn’t have Heilongjiang rice vinegar.

Without it, he’d have to order online. While not very troublesome, it would still require waiting for the delivery. Even if he used JD.com’s same-city purchase, it wouldn’t arrive until tomorrow.

"Tsk, I can’t believe I’ve developed a bit of OCD now." Chen Ze took out beef. Since he couldn’t make authentic Guoba Meat at the moment, he decided to make a bowl of Crispy Beef Noodles for Betty’s breakfast.

"But now that I think about it, the soup recipes Yukihira taught me today, perhaps I could give them a try later?" Chen Ze thought while cutting the beef.

There are many soups in the world, but Chen Ze always felt that Huaxia’s soups monopolized half of the culinary excellence, with the rest of the world’s cuisines sharing the remaining half. In Huaxia, a pot of soup can truly be crafted into a work of art.

However, what disappointed Chen Ze was that although Yukihira had traveled to many places and learned many local specialties, he taught only a few to Chen Ze, and most were very famous soups from around the world.

Chen Ze was planning to make a Tom Yum this time and then taste this dish that had become synonymous with instant noodle flavor to see what it really tasted like.

"Manager Uncle~" a young boy’s voice came in.

"Nobita, is this the restaurant you said was really good?" another voice asked.

"Wow, is this the Anywhere Door from Doraemon?" a pleasant female voice remarked.

Chen Ze stuck his head out to take a peek, then saw Nobita proudly leading his friends inside, followed by a visibly exhausted Blue Fatty.

Previously, Blue Fatty had learned from the Time Management Bureau that this restaurant didn’t exist on any temporal node, so Doraemon had always been cautious about this restaurant. However, he couldn’t stand against Nobita’s insistence and had no choice but to follow along.

"Welcome to Dream Restaurant~ What would you like to have, kids?" Betty hurriedly changed her clothes and rushed down from the second floor.

"Betty sister, I still want to eat curry pork cutlet rice!" Nobita immediately decided on what he wanted to eat today.

"Wow, this big sister is super pretty~" Suneo and Takeshi Goda whispered to each other on the side, not noticing that Chen Ze gave them a glance.

As for Nobita, Chen Ze wasn’t too worried; the guy had learned his lesson last time and probably wouldn’t do anything foolish again, especially with Doraemon and Shizuka there to watch him.

But Suneo and Takeshi Goda... freёwebnovel.com

Their ability to cause trouble was in no way inferior to Nobita’s, but it still depended on whether they were the movie version of Suneo and Takeshi Goda.

As is known in the world of Doraemon, the characters from the movies are a rather unique category, where Takeshi Goda becomes particularly loyal and sometimes very reliable, not beating up Nobita without good reason.

Suneo, on the other hand, typically becomes more annoying and occasionally comes up with some really useful ideas.

Regarding Nobita and Shizuka, Chen Ze always felt that their main purpose was to show off, using the fame of children’s anime to lure in unsuspecting "victims." It was downright wicked.

However, Suneo and Takeshi Goda didn’t cause any strange issues and obediently sat down, which eased Chen Ze’s mind a bit. freewebnovёl.ƈom

"Then I’ll just have Dorayaki," Doraemon lay on the table, reasoning that since he was there, it would be a shame not to eat, especially since the Dorayaki here was super delicious.

"Nobita, do you have any dishes to recommend?" Takeshi Goda asked, looking at Nobita with an innocent expression.

"Takeshi Goda, I think Nobita will definitely only eat curry pork cutlet rice, but it seems Nobita is quite picky. How about we just order the curry pork cutlet rice too?" Suneo came up with a good idea, prompting Chen Ze to inwardly praise.

These two guys really knew how to order.
