They restocked their supplies as Leon kept cooking for them more plates to broaden their horizons...
Their favourite plate as of late was Gyoza which are savoury moon-shaped dumplings, made from a minced mixture of savoury fillings, pork mince, cabbage, green onion and mushroom as a common combination, but other fillings were used as well, wrapped up in a circular gyoza wrapper and crimped or pleated around the edges to make an iconic half-moon shape.
The next one and most voiced that made Leon feel scared about their reactions were the Takoyaki octopus b.a.l.l.s dumplings...
This delicacy is cooked using a special hot plate with rows of half-spherical moulds. Each of the moulds is filled with a savoury batter mixture before a bite-size piece of tako octopus meat is inserted into the middle.
Leon went beyond for their pallets and served them in lots of twenty, brushed with a sweet/savoury takoyaki sauce and topped with mayonnaise, aonori seaweed and katsuobushi bonito fish flakes.
The next one they tried was the Edamame...
These bright green, immature soy beans, harvested before the beans have hardened, are served in the pod after being blanched and lightly salted.
As well as boasting a naturally delicious and mellow umami flavour that works beautifully with light salt seasonings.
During this month, they also tasted yakisoba fried noodles...
A dish made by barbecuing or stir-frying a combination of noodles, sliced cabbage, pork, carrot and other vegetables, and a barbecue-style yakisoba sauce.
However, they didn"t forget to nug him about Chawanmushi steamed egg custard cups...
This steamed, savoury egg custard is made by pouring seasoned, beaten eggs into individual cups already filled with different meats and vegetables, including chicken, mushrooms, gingko nuts, kamaboko fish cakes, and carrots and then steaming the cups in a pot or steamer until they have solidified and become similar to pudding in texture.
Their whole world was turned upside down, especially Leyla"s as she loved the next one the most...
It was a cake...
One day, there was a war between the girls as Leon only prepared one, which almost cost him his life as they threatened him to throw him in the cold sea...
Of course, the guys never paid attention to his looks of help because they valued their lives...
Having been tortured for days, Leon laments the moment he pulled out the CAKE!!!
As they arrived on Ace"s birthplace and although he had bad memories from here, or close to none at all they could see that it was full of palm trees and cabanas, much like a tropical island.
They docked their ship in the sh.o.r.es of the island and noticed that even though it looked like a tropical island and had a few necessities, it was too quiet...
Leon : Was this place always like that???
Ace : I don"t know, i only remember the scenery and other things...
When he talked about other things, they all saw his face falling slightly and didn"t say anything to him except Leyla holding his hand even though her face was red...
But since none was willing to incur her wrath, they laughed silently in their minds...
Law : Shall we go sightseeing and look around for any info??
Law : We might learn something...
Without hesitation, everyone jumped off the bridge of the ship and left Leyla and Ace all alone as they vanished from there...
Ace : I wish to go somewhere...
Leyla : Sure...
Without even asking her to come with him, Ace looked at Leyla and she nodded her head as they also jumped off the ship going towards the edges of the island...
