In this way, a week has passed, Xia Yan is completely accustomed to the operation of the 'Cat's Chinese House', and feels that it is no different from his main shop in real Tokyo, except that the guests are a little strange.

Of course, this is still based on Xia Yan's control of knowing the original setting.

Imagine that the new store manager is replaced by someone else, even if his cooking skills are much better than Xia Yan, he may have annoyed this existence at the beginning without knowing the personality of the Red Dragon Lady, and I am afraid that he will tremble in the days to come.

Compared with the original book, the frequency of Ms. Honglong's visit to the cat house and ordering food has changed from once a week to once a day.

this day.

It's still a 'pasta' dish.

Ms. Honglong took the napkin, wiped the oily gloss of her lips, and praised: "Compared with the pasta you served last time, this time I feel a more obvious 'integrity'!" ”

After she finished eating, she didn't plan to talk too much, and glanced at the swordsman and female treasure hunter who were also in the store, then stood up and dropped a warning:

"Remember, when the bell rings in the early hours of the morning...... It's Saturday! ”

Ms. Red Dragon was walking to the door of the store, and before she could push it open, the bell rang.

A round face, a big belly, a very kind face, and the clothes on his body look like an elderly guest of a certain big businessman, carrying a sack, turning his head to look around.

"The furniture, the decoration of the store, still hasn't changed at all!" The old guy looked nostalgic.

The lady glanced at the door and waited for him to close the door before pushing it open.

The old businessman didn't come alone, he was accompanied by a brown-haired boy from another world.

"Yo, Lord Thomas?"

In front of the bar, Ken Haochen Goro waved hello.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Mr. Tatsugoro."

A big businessman named Thomas Alfield sighed.

Xia Yan also recognized the new guest and raised his eyebrows.

This old man, in the other world outside the door, that piece of the Eastern Continent, is known as the 'Ancestor of Revival'.

The key is his Alfield Chamber of Commerce, which can be called the first chamber of commerce in the Eastern Continent.

Moreover, unlike the Chamber of Commerce behind the female treasure hunter Sarah Gerdor, Thomas and his Elfield Chamber of Commerce are more closely connected to the 'Cat House' itself!

To be precise, the most fundamental reason why the Alfield Chamber of Commerce was able to establish the status of the first chamber of commerce was that Thomas himself moved the cuisine of the "cat house" back to his own world, and restored it on the table in another world, so the "restoration work" was promoted by mistake, and on the other side of the door, it set off a food trend that has not abated so far.

"A new store manager? This is a contemptible welcome gift. ”

Thomas handed the bag to the little maid Aretta.

Then, he continued to look at the store that he had not seen for a long time, and found that on the small blackboard that used to say "Daily Menu", the line of Eastern Continent Lingua franca had been replaced with "Daily Store Manager's Recommended Dish".

Today's manager's recommended dishes——

'Red oil hot pot'.

"Hot pot? What is it? ”

Silius, a boy from another world, stood beside his grandfather, looking here and there, feeling new to everything.

"That's supposed to be it—"

Thomas Alfield is at the end of the door, recreating the "cat house" foodie, who must have a good culinary background and the nickname of "cooking inventor".

He had a keen sense of smell, and for the first time, he looked at Tatsugoro, an acquaintance.

On the bar in front of Jian Hao, there was a small stove with a bubbling red oil pot on it.

And around the stove, there are several plates, full of uncooked ingredients.

There are vegetables.

There are slices of meat.

At this time, 'Kenhao' Tatsugoro was holding chopsticks, holding a thin and delicate slice of meat, dipped in a pot of red oil, and after about ten seconds, he lifted it, dipped it in a strange seasoning, and put it into his mouth, and his face immediately burst into a red tide.

"Whew-" Swallowing, Tatsugoro let out a long sigh.

"Hey, does 'hot pot' mean this cooking method?"

Hearing a voice from the side, Tatsugoro raised his head and nodded to Thomas, "I've been eating this 'recommended dish' for a week, but I don't feel bored at all, every time I eat it, I feel fresh every time." ”

And in the bar.

Seeing the little maid Aretta, she struggled to bring in a sack.

Xia Yan asked her to open it and found that the bag contained some otherworldly ingredients, including potatoes, tomatoes, and green peppers.

Bite!

Suddenly, since he came to the 'Cat's China House', the system that has not heard from him has been popping up at this time:

[Mission—'March to another vast food field'! 】

[Contents: Try to use at least 1 'otherworldly ingredient' and incorporate it into a recipe you already know.] 】

[Reward: 3 skill points.] 】

One small task.

Xia Yan took it casually, immediately grabbed a big tomato from the sack, put it under the faucet and washed it, cut it with a kitchen blade, and ate a small petal raw.

"Uh, is it just the taste difference?"

The taste is sour, which is due to the water and soil, but the taste and other aspects are exactly what he knows about "tomatoes".

There was no significant difference between orange and Huainan, and orange and Huaibei.

He remembered that the reason why the previous generations of cat house managers had a close relationship with Thomas and the Alfield Chamber of Commerce was also because one side was buying ingredients and the other side was providing ingredients.

Successive generations of cat house managers have also used ingredients from other worlds to conduct culinary research, but their approach is biased towards seasoning and improvement, in other words, on the basis of understanding the terroir of another world, try to localize the recipes on the menu and the flavors.

That's it?

Xia Yan was a little disappointed.

I checked all the ingredients in the bag and found that they were all ordinary species, and there was no 'treasure level'.

He didn't believe it, even the halberd world could give birth to a 'treasure-level' flower, in this continent of sword and magic, in a sense, the rules and the world level were higher, and it was impossible to have no 'treasure-level'.

Even, there will be a 'magical' output.

For example, it's like Xia Yan once opened a silver treasure chest, and opened a small piece of ingredients-

'Squid feet with endless umami'.

Looking back on it now.

I'm afraid that only in this kind of sword and magic rules can it be possible to find out the source of such a 'squid foot' and explore what kind of magical creature this squid foot deity is.

Xia Yan clapped his hands and asked Aretta to move things to the warehouse, while he secretly thought:

"It seems that in every world, there are also levels of 'ingredients'!"

"Elfeld, it's also the first chamber of commerce in this land, the vast Eastern Continent, it is impossible not to have 'treasure-level' or even 'magic-grade' ingredients."

"And the fundamental reason why the past generations of store managers of the cat house are secretive about abnormal ingredients and dare not include them in the recipe is probably because they are ordinary people! Can't cook! ”

"I'm different......"
