Chapter 1975: Your Roast Goose
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Sicarra was immediately stunned. “Why is it a goose that is already processed?”
“They have only one chef in this restaurant, but the number of customers is comparable to a big restaurant’s. He won’t be able to make dishes in time if the ingredients are not processed in advance,” Genevieve explained.
“But… how will I know if that is Gaga then?” Sicarra was starting to panic.
Genevieve pondered, and then said, “We have to taste it then.”
“Huh?” Sicarra glared at her.
“No… I was saying, look at that goose in the boss’s hands. It doesn’t look like Gaga at all,” Genevieve quickly explained.
“It indeed doesn’t look like Gaga. Gaga isn’t that big.” Sicarra stared at it before nodding. Then, she said with pursed lips, “However, where could Gaga go? Why couldn’t we find it anywhere?”
Genevieve patted the back of her hand, and consoled, “Don’t fret. I will ask my friends to help you look for it after we have our meal. They know a lot of people, and perhaps they can find it.”
“Erm.” Sicarra nodded. She finally was a little appeased.
Soon after, the dishes that they ordered were served.
The bright-colored red braised pork had a fantastic meaty aroma, while the stir-fried octopus’ tentacles had an umami aroma. However, the white and tender tofu pudding was what attracted their attention the most.
Women always had no resistance to things that could make them prettier.
Of course, they were rather doubtful about the rumors about the tofu pudding’s beautifying effects before they came to Mamy Restaurant. After all, it was mostly scammers’ lies when they said that one could rapidly improve their looks with food.
However, whether the tofu pudding had a beautifying effect or not, the tofu pudding in front of them still looked extremely enticing. The refres.h.i.+ng aroma of the soybeans greeted their noses.
“The sweet one looks great.” Genevieve turned the bowl around as she looked at the syrup that covered the tofu pudding. Be it the viscosity or color, it looked perfect.
“The savory one looks better. It won’t be too overwhelming.” On the other hand, Sicarra promoted her savory tofu pudding. “Besides, you can’t take too much sugar, either.”
“It’s fine to eat a little sometimes.” Genevieve couldn’t wait to scoop up the tofu pudding with her spoon. It was like steamed egg custard, only more elastic. The spoon left a white hole in the tofu pudding, and then the red syrup flew into it. The tofu pudding covered by syrup shook slightly in her spoon, delicate like a piece of art.
The delectable tofu pudding almost melted as soon as she put it in her mouth. The syrup was so thick and delightful, and it came together perfectly with the tofu pudding.
Genevieve opened her eyes, and praised the tofu pudding in front of her. “This taste. I can say that it’s one of the best desserts.”
As a person who had worked with breakfast pastry for decades, she still couldn’t imagine how the boss turned the soybeans into such an intricate and delicious food.
Hearing that, Sicarra, too, couldn’t wait to scoop up a spoonful of tofu pudding.
The soft white tofu pudding was covered in a layer of orange sauce and diced pickled vegetables. It wobbled in the spoon, looking very bouncy. After placing it in her mouth, it completely melted without even the need to chew. The sweet and fragrant tofu pudding combined perfectly with the pickled vegetables and sauce, making her eyes brighten instantly.
“It’s so delicious!” Sicarra suddenly felt as if she was enveloped by warmth. She felt much better after losing Gaga. She only wanted to enjoy this scrumptious food for the time being now, and enjoy this blissful and beautiful sensation.
Very soon, the tofu pudding ended in the mother-and-daughter pair’s bellies.
Putting down the spoon, Sicarra said, “Although I didn’t sense any change, I really want to have another bowl.”
“Then let’s have another bowl.” Genevieve nodded in agreement, and asked Miya, who happened to walk by, for another helping.
Miya smilingly replied, “I’m sorry, dear customers. The tofu pudding is limited to one per customer.”
“Oh, I see… Alright, thanks.” Genevieve nodded. As someone in the F&B business, she naturally wouldn’t make things difficult for the service staff for such a matter.
“Too bad, then we will come next time for it.” Sicarra was a little disappointed.
“Come, let’s try the other dishes now that we had the snacks before the meal.” Genevieve picked up the chopsticks, and fed herself a piece of red braised pork.
“Hmm… This red braised pork is fantastic too. Try it.” Genevieve put a piece of red braised pork in Sicarra’s bowl as she chewed on the fat but not greasy red braised pork.
“This meat is so fat.” Sicarra was slightly turned off by the fat and lean red braised pork, but looking at Genevieve, who had an amazed expression, she picked up and bit into the lean part after a brief moment of hesitation.
She bit softly into the meat, and the sweet and fragrant sauce seeped out from the meat. Even the lean meat was very tender and not dry. It melted in her mouth after being chewed gently.
“This meat… how can it be so delicious!” Sicarra’s mouth was slightly agape with disbelief. Even the usually dry lean meat became so delicious.
Genevieve had already picked up her second piece. She didn’t forget to remind Sicarra, “The way you eat it is soulless. You have to eat it together with the skin to experience its extreme scrumptiousness.”
“I can’t eat too much fatty meat…” Although Sicarra said that, she still popped a whole piece of red braised pork into her mouth.
The tender pork melted almost immediately in her mouth. The lean meat was chewy but not dry. The pork skin was soft and sticky. She could chew without any pressure.
She bit softly into the meat, and the sweet and fragrant sauce seeped out from the meat. At this moment, the beauty of the pork was brought out to the fullest.
As a child who grew up in a restaurant, Sicarra had inherited Genevieve’s taste completely. She was very picky about food.
However, right at that moment, she couldn’t find any faults with this red braised pork. Even someone who disliked fatty meat like her was immersed in the exquisite experience brought about by the fatty meat and pig’s skin.
Sicarra looked up at Mag in the kitchen, and marveled, “This boss… is so formidable.”
“Yes. If I can find a son-in-law like this, it’ll really pay to have a daughter.” Genevieve nodded.
“Mother!” Sicarra whined with a blush.
“Haha. I’m just saying it casually. This young man is really not bad.” Genevieve looked at Mag with a motherly smile, as if she had already prebooked a son-in-law.
“I can’t bother with you.” Sicarra lowered her head, and ate two mouthfuls of rice and another piece of red braised pork.
“Your roast goose. Please enjoy.” Right then, a voice suddenly appeared, and a huge plate floated out of the kitchen, and landed between the two of them.. One cut-apart-and-rea.s.sembled-together roast goose lay on the plate quietly with two dipping sauces.
