My Restaurant's Guests are All Abnormal

Chapter 563: Chapter 423: Pearl Milk Tea Ramen

Chen Ze didn’t notice Kakashi’s gaze, since he was currently focusing on Naruto and Lafra. For some reason, Lafra seemed a tiny bit surprised.

"How does it feel?" Chen Ze looked at Lafra and asked curiously.

"It’s quite good. Naruto truly is a child with exceptional talents. The wind element within him has become increasingly strong, and it even surprised me a little," Lafra said with a gentle smile. Chen Ze wasn’t sure if it was his own misperception, but he always felt like Lafra was acting like a mother right now. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Thinking of this, Chen Ze remembered what Lafra told him, that he could become a father now. So with that said, could he possibly hit a home run?

"Manager, what do we have to eat today?" Kakashi spoke up, feeling the need to intervene; otherwise, the whole restaurant reeked of the sour scent of romance.

"I want ramen! The father-in-law’s ramen!" Naruto immediately raised his hand, his face beaming with joy.

"In that case... it all depends on what you would like to eat, Kakashi. There’s ramen, braised noodles, and other dishes. Why don’t you take a look at the menu first?" Chen Ze glanced at Betty, who then hurried over and handed the menu she was holding to Kakashi.

"Hmm, thank you." Kakashi browsed the menu. According to what the Third Hokage and Naruto said, everything at this restaurant tasted very good, with the condition that you shouldn’t ask for any particularly strange flavors.

Like spicy flavors or others, as it couldn’t be guaranteed what taste Chen Ze’s cooking would result in. However, ordering from the menu was definitely a safe bet.

"Then I’ll have a serving of curry pork chop rice, and a cup of sake... Do you have sake?" Kakashi asked Chen Ze, his interest in drinking sake a spur-of-the-moment decision, but he hadn’t seen this drink listed on the menu. freёwebnoѵel.com

"As for sake, I actually don’t have any right now, I didn’t prepare any sake here. But there are other drinks, would you like to try something different?" Chen Ze looked at Kakashi and asked hesitantly.

"In that case..." Kakashi was unsure how to choose, because in reality, he wasn’t very fond of other drinks, and in his mind, sake was more to his taste.

"Leave this to me, dear," Lafra said, lifting her head and looking earnestly at Chen Ze.

Then Chen Ze remembered the cocktail that Lafra made last time, which was an excellent concoction from every perspective.

So Chen Ze promptly agreed to Lafra’s request, and Kakashi, for some reason, directly concurred. Chen Ze, however, wasn’t concerned and returned to the kitchen to continue preparing the food that needed to be made today.

As for Naruto, Chen Ze knew what to make for him. In fact, it wasn’t a difficult task, so Chen Ze cooked quite quickly.

However, while Chen Ze was cooking, he looked over at Lafra who was by his side.

Lafra had insisted on mixing drinks in Chen Ze’s kitchen, so he had specifically allocated an area for her. Lafra was focused, continuously mixing the drinks.

Chen Ze had a pretty good idea of what Lafra intended. Given Lafra’s current activities, it appeared she was planning to be a cocktail-mixing landlady in Chen Ze’s restaurant. He smiled to himself, as the idea seemed quite good indeed.

Chen Ze lowered his head, as he needed to focus on making the ramen that Naruto had requested.

For some reason, Naruto was particularly fond of eating ramen, even though Chen Ze originally felt that a transcendent level of curry pork cutlet rice was more suited for Naruto. But since Naruto had asked for ramen, Chen Ze wouldn’t make anything else.

"Well, let me think, if I just make a transcendent ramen for Kakashi, I always feel that it doesn’t seem quite right. So, should I make a curry ramen for Naruto as well..." Chen Ze pondered, holding a kitchen knife.

To be honest, Chen Ze had always thought that ramen should be made in the Japanese style. However, even though there are many different types of ramen in Japan, Chen Ze didn’t know how to make many of them, which caused him a lot of distress.

It wasn’t until Chen Ze suddenly remembered some quirky news he read before. It mentioned that Huaxia’s bubble tea had caused a huge sensation after reaching Japan, with countless Japanese girls becoming addicted to its taste. Even Japan’s largest Extreme Path Organization started selling bubble tea.

Originally, this news was relatively normal until Chen Ze discovered another problem. There was a creation called "bubble tea ramen," a dark cuisine that later emerged.

However, the Japanese restaurant that made it explained that there were quite a few customers ordering this ramen, and there were also many repeat customers. This made Chen Ze fall into deep thought, wondering whether there was something wrong on his part or if Japanese people had a unique taste.

As for bubble tea, Chen Ze had certainly tried it; he remembered a colleague from his office who would fix herself a cup of bubble tea every afternoon, which could be described as true love.

"Forget it, since there is such a thing as bubble tea ramen, then making curry ramen shouldn’t be too strange." Chen Ze consoled himself at that time, and now he started thinking about how to make curry ramen.

When it comes to curry, what comes to mind for many people is the cold... ahem, no, the thick color and consistency of curry.

Curry is delicious to eat, but it doesn’t seem very suitable for making ramen. If you asked a hundred people who have eaten Japanese-style ramen about the most distinctive feature of Japanese ramen, many would say the soup.

So, curry soup? Chen Ze felt that although it wasn’t inedible, the rich flavor of curry would make many side dishes lose their appeal, especially when added to ramen. The entire soup base would be dominated by the curry flavor, overshadowing everything else.

"Such a vexing issue..." Chen Ze touched his chin, a bit troubled.

"It seems my dear is in a bit of a pickle, hmm?" Chen Ze felt a refreshing fragrance behind him and turned his head to see Lafra smiling at him.

"Lafra, you... finished mixing?" Chen Ze was a little surprised; Lafra was indeed quick at preparing drinks.

"Yeah, I looked back and saw you looking all worried~" Lafra said, her playful smile making her look incredibly cute.

"I am worried, but I haven’t..." Chen Ze’s words trailed off as he caught sight of the bottles behind Lafra, so many of them...

Chen Ze suddenly realized he had come up with some solutions.
