Chapter 951 No Longer Have The Desire To Try The Next Restauran
“Your eggplant with garlic sauce and rice.”
Yabemiya walked over and placed the freshly cooked eggplant with garlic sauce and a bowl of rice in front of Derrick.
Many customers were looking at Derrick and the eggplant with garlic sauce in front of him.
However, Derrick’s attention was totally attracted by the eggplant with garlic sauce.The freshly cooked eggplant with garlic sauce was still piping hot, and a rich aroma tickled his nose.
That was a very special aroma. It resembled the fish aroma from the Green Fish Restaurant in Rodu, which was famous for their fish dishes. He liked the stir-fried lotus roots in that restaurant, and often went there to eat them; hence, he was familiar with that aroma.
But, it was not totally accurate to say that it was the aroma of cooked fish. It should be the aroma of fish cooked with other ingredients.
Furthermore, compared with that aroma from Green Fish Restaurant, this aroma was much more enticing. Even his sensitive nose couldn’t detect a hint of fishy smell. It only made one begin to salivate.
On the rectangular plate, there was a fish split in half, and a golden-red sauce was covering it. The glistening sauce seeped into the “flesh” perfectly.
However, when Derrick took a closer look, he discovered it wasn’t a fish on the plate, but an eggplant cut to look like a fish. Because it was skinned, carved, and deep-fried, it looked just like a real fish.
Derrick’s eyes lit up. He said in amazement and confusion, “What a unique method of cooking. There indeed isn’t any fish, so where does the fish aroma come from? Could fish broth be used in it? If fish broth was used, then it shouldn’t be categorized as vegetarian, right?”“It smells so good. It really looks like a fish, but it smells even nicer than real fish.”
“Is this really the taste of eggplant?”
“Quick, Bro. Taste it. I feel like ordering one for myself too.”
The three of them sitting together already began to salivate, and that young man already began to urge him.
“I shall have a taste since I have ordered it.” Derrick used his chopsticks to pick up a piece of eggplant after hesitating for a moment.
The eggplant was softer than he had imagined. The golden-red sauce had seeped into the eggplant perfectly, and not a tinge of the usual unappetizing white flesh could be seen. The thin layer of glistening oil made people salivate, and even Derrick began to swallow his excess saliva.
I really hope fish broth was not added during the cooking process, or else this would be my first zero star review, Derrick thought before putting the eggplant into his mouth.
“This taste!”
Derrick glowed instantly. The different tastes of sour, spicy, sweet, and savory exploded in his mouth at the same time. It was a sensation he had never had in his 20 years as a vegetarian. It inspired his usually calm taste buds as if a dormant volcano had suddenly exploded and its lava was giving his tongue the most intense rush.
Every taste was so distinct, and yet they intertwined with one another so harmoniously. It made him feel lost in the taste uncontrollably.
The soft eggplant seemed to melt in his mouth instantly. He swallowed it slowly after his mouth had experienced the mad rush of flavors. The exquisite taste lingered in his mouth.
“Unbelievable! Is this really eggplant? How can this food that nobody would ever like become so delicious?” Derrick was amazed at the taste that lingered in his mouth. What shocked him further was that there wasn’t any fish or fish-related item added into that dish. Even that sauce didn’t contain any fish broth.
However, it had been a pure vegetarian dish like this that managed to achieve a scrumptious taste that a meat dish had failed.
Just one bite?
Derrick had forgotten all about that phrase. He ate a mouthful of rice from the bowl. The rice tasted even more fragrant with the taste that lingered in his mouth.
One piece of eggplant with garlic sauce with a mouthful of rice. It was so scrumptious that he couldn’t stop!
How does such a delicious vegetarian dish exist in this world!?
This totally changed my view on vegetarian food. Vegetarian food is supposed to be calming. How can this be so irresistibly tempting!
Oh! It’s simply too delicious!
Derrick had an intense internal struggle with himself, which he finally gave in to in the end.
“Please give me another bowl of rice!” Derrick said to Yabemiya, placing his empty bowl down.
“Gulp.”
The sound of gulping could be heard in the restaurant.
“Boss Mag’s perverse. Did he really make eggplant into a delicacy too?”
“Looking at this bro’s behavior, it’s highly possible.”
“Mr Mag is indeed who he is. There really isn’t anything that Boss Mag cannot make into a delicacy! Miss Miya, please give me a serving of eggplant with garlic sauce too!”
The customers could no longer restrain themselves. Those customers who were still hesitating began to place their orders. Seeing it with their own eyes was more convincing than any marketing slogans.
“Sure, please wait a minute.”
Yabemiya took Derrick’s bowl with a smile, took down all the new orders at the same time, and skipped to the kitchen. As she had expected, once a customer tried it, the other customers quickly followed suit. It would receive rave reviews as usual.
Derrick quickly received his second bowl of rice, and continued eating the rest of the eggplant with garlic sauce. He polished up everything with the rice, including the very last bit of garlic.
“Delicious food is indeed the most satisfying,” Derrick said satedly as he put down his empty bowl. He hadn’t had such satisfaction in a long time.
I never expected to have such delicious vegetarian food in Chaos City. I guess I’ve been too narrow-minded. Derrick was laughing at himself in his heart as he remembered his original assumption.
He had never had such delicious vegetarian food before. The taste was beyond amazing; it was irresistible.
“Your sweet tofu pudding. Please enjoy it.” Yabemiya brought the sweet tofu pudding over, and placed it gently in front of Derrick.
“Thank you.” A happy Derrick smiled and nodded. Then, he began to appraise this tofu pudding that caused the inconclusive argument.
The reddish-gold thick thick syrup covered the tofu pudding. The soy bean fragrance mixed with the sweet aroma of the syrup began to tickle his nose.
Dessert? Seems good too. Derrick scooped up a spoonful of the tofu pudding. It looked a little like steamed egg. The notch was quickly covered by the syrup. The tofu pudding vibrated gently on the spoon, just like a piece of art.
The delectable tofu pudding melted almost as soon as he put it in his mouth. The syrup was so thick and delightful, and it came together perfectly with the tofu pudding.
The tofu pudding was sweet, but not too sweet. After he swallowed, the pleasant taste remained in his mouth. It made him continue to dig in.
The boss must be a genius, Derrick praised in his heart, and proceeded to enjoy the rush that the tofu pudding brought.
…
10 minutes later, Derrick paid and left Mamy Restaurant.
Five stars? There couldn’t be any other choice, right?
Derrick turned to look at Mamy Restaurant as he patted his tummy with a satisfied expression.
That’s all for this afternoon. I no longer have the desire to try the next restaurant.
