âYou can totally say that again!â Bernice said, nodding. âI think it will even make it into the top 5!â She was a little abashed with the embarrassing sound sheâd just made, but her companions were too immersed in the food to mind her.
She was a cook herself, but she had to admit she was completely impressed by this roujiamo. Now she found it worth the price.
She couldnât even figure out how to make bread this soft, chewy, and crunchy at the same time.
Why is he using streaky pork? she wondered.
And how did he make the meat so flavorful yet not greasy at all?
Itâs a genius idea to eat bread with meat!
What spices did he use?
These restaurateurs had so many questions on their minds.
Miles shook his head. âIt has a top 5 taste, no doubt, or even top 3,â he said, smiling. âBut the number of customers and their comments also matter in the competition. This place is not big enough. He needs to get more customers eating here if he wants to make it into the top 5.â
âMiles has a point here, but I think this food may set new records in many aspects,â Andrew said, putting down the empty bag slowly. âNo dish having over 1,000 comments has got five stars in all aspects for a long time, I think.â He smiled. âItâs been so long since I last ate something this good. Waitress, Iâd like another roujiamo, please.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI want another one too,â Bishop said to Yabemiya.
âSure. Please wait a sec,â the young waitress replied with a smile, eyes shining with joy and pride. Nobody can resist Magâs food, not even other cooks.
Amy gave a big smile. âI knew they would love it.â She pinched Ugly Ducklingâs cheeks, drawing it back before it fell off her laps.
Mag shook his head with a smile as he turned to glance at his counterparts. I never realized my food would bring about so much debate. Top 10 most delicious foods? Five stars in all aspects? Why do they care so much about this?
âItâs nearly impossible to score five stars in all aspects. Different folks like different foods,â said Bishop.
âYes. Customers are very difficult to satisfy these days,â Bernice said. âThey look for good dining experience, which I donât think they can get here, since humans, dwarves, and orcs have to eat together. He canât get five stars in this aspect.â
âMagâs roujiamo is indeed the best. Even Bernice is speaking highly of it,â a voice said.
âYou and she should try Magâs Yangzhou fried rice. Thatâs the best food Iâve ever had,â another voice said.
âThese restaurateurs are not so proud now, are they?â a third voice said.
Some customers were chatting in a low voice.
The six restaurateurs overheard them, but they could do nothing but listen quietly. An embarrassed look crept onto their faces.
âDo you like Fatherâs roujiamo, Mrs. Flower Apron?â Amy asked.
Smiling, Bernice nodded. âYes, itâs very tasty.â
âFatherâs rainbow fried rice is also very tasty. Iâm sure youâll like it too.â
By then, Yabemiya had walked out of the kitchen with two plates of Yangzhou fried rice. She put down one plate before Andrew and one before Bernice. âYour Yangzhou fried rice, please enjoy,â she said.
Berniceâs eyes widened. The pleasant smell of eggs and other ingredients mixed together and tickled her nose. Each rice grain had been perfectly coated by golden eggs.
She counted six different ingredients besides eggs and rice. Every ingredient had been chopped into the same size as the rice grain. It did look like a rainbow in a way.
So many different ingredients, yet it looked so harmonious. Talk about fineness!
âHis cutting skills must be really good if he can chop the shrimp so evenly,â Bernice said. She spooned some into her mouth, and chewed a few times. Despite herself, she then closed her eyes.
The spiciness of the eggs and the taste of other ingredients melded together, yet each flavor remained so distinct.
After she swallowed, she felt a warm current flowing all over her body, calming her down and soothing her.
A smile touched her lips. Roujiamo could make her blood pump, but she liked this fried rice better as it was nice and peaceful.
âGood food makes you happy,â Bernice said as she opened her eyes. She took another bite, and then anotherâ¦
