A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World (WN)

Chapter 1418: I Heard That Real Men Take On The Insanely Spicy Level

“How long do we have to wait? When can we finally eat our dinner?” Tony wasn’t hungry at first, but he grew hungry as he waited.

The line was moving slowly, but the speed was too slow. They’d been waiting for almost two hours, but they were nowhere near the front of the line.

If this was the Demon Islands, he wouldn’t need to line up. The restaurant owners would all welcome him in with open arms. This was the first time in his life he lined up for so long.

“I’ve counted. It might probably take another half an hour before it’s our turn. A pity we would only be left with half an hour to eat. I guess we wouldn’t be able to try the hot pot today. The new product would definitely be sold out already.” Vanessa craned her neck forward to look as she stood on her toes. She looked energetic, and didn’t seem to think that lining up was very tough. It was just a pity that she could not get to enjoy the hot pot and the new product.

Meanwhile, Abraham hung his head low as he nodded off. He was slowly moving forward with the line completely unconsciously.

“Half an hour…” Tony glared at the calm customers in the line. Even the temperamental demons were lining up obediently. He could not help but diss in his mind, I’ll see what’s so special about this restaurant that can make so many customers line up and wait willingly. Also, the crayfish. Hmph, how can there be crayfish better than those at Ayi Crayfish Restaurant?

Around half an hour later, they could finally see the front end of the line.

Yabemiya looked at Vanessa, as well as the demons behind her, and came out to greet them with a smile. She guided them to a table outside the restaurant, and said, “There are currently no tables available in the restaurant, and we have already stopped taking in new customers at the designated hot pot area, so please take a seat here. Take a look at the menu to see what you want to order.”

“Big Sister Miya, do you still have the new product launched today?” Vanessa asked excitedly the moment she took her seat.

“We’re already completely sold out for the 100 durian pizzas. If you want to try it, you can come over earlier tomorrow.” Yabemiya shook her head slightly.

“Then is there no more tofu pudding as well?”

“Yes, the tofu pudding is sold out as well.” Yabemiya nodded.

“Ah, it’s true that you can be late for anything, but you can never be late to eat at Mamy Restaurant!” Vanessa sighed. She felt as though she had missed out on a priceless treasure.

Tony joined tables with Vanessa. Although he still found it a little strange to dine outside the restaurant since the restaurant was so beautiful, there were quite a lot of open-air restaurants on the Demon Islands, so he did not think much about dining outside. Tony reached for the menu and flipped it open. His gaze fell on the pictures in the menu, and his eyes lit up immediately.

There was a picture of every dish, and the image was very realistic, as though it was captured by a photostone. Just the picture of the food alone was enough to work up an appetite.

What shocked him the most was the price of the dishes. He glanced through the prices, and the cheapest dish was the soybean milk, which cost 100 copper coins. The most expensive dish was the “Buddha jumps over the wall” at 10,000 copper coins!

“10,000 copper coins!” Tony’s eyes widened as he stared at the price in disbelief. The food in this restaurant was so expensive. He had never seen a menu like this in all his years on the Demon Islands.

“What a rip-off! I can already have a spicy crayfish at the Demon Islands with 100 copper coins, but here I can only get a bowl of soybean milk,” Tony grumbled under his breath. Actually, he was not short on money. As a highly paid gourmet, he had enough money to order everything on the menu, but he just felt his heart ache a little for his wallet.

His gaze landed on the braised crayfish, the bright red crayfish with huge pincers in the image, and his eyes lit up. Surprised, he said, “Isn’t this the same crayfish as the one in Ayi Restaurant?”

After that, he looked at the price.

“F*ck! (‵o′)凸”

Braised crayfish—1000 copper coins for one!

That’s a good 10 times more expensive!

Vanessa looked at Tony with a smile as she asked, “Mister, what do you think? Don’t you think the price Boss Mag set for the crayfish is super reasonable?”

“Reasonable? Heh. The crayfish on Carapace Island is 10 times cheaper.” Tony rolled his eyes.

“But this is Chaos City. It’s a landlocked place, so it’s super difficult to have fresh seafood here. You can probably only get fresh seafood here at Mamy Restaurant,” Vanessa said with a smile.

“Once the sea creatures leave the sea, they will die quickly, so it’s impossible to have completely fresh seafood at Chaos City. Selling a dead crayfish for 1,000 crayfish is a little too expensive in my opinion. After all, the crayfish at Ayi Crayfish Restaurant is only 100 copper coins, and it’s already the best.” Tony shook his head to show that he was not agreeable to what Vanessa said.

“That’s not necessarily the case. I’ve tried the freshest seafood, but I don’t think it tastes anywhere as good as Boss Mag’s braised crayfish. I think 1,000 copper coins are really worth it. Besides, I don’t think Boss Mag’s braised crayfish would be worse than the crayfish Teacher Tony recommended,” Vanessa insisted. After that, she looked at Yabemiya, and said, “Big Sister Miya, I’ll have a braised crayfish, and then a large insanely spicy grilled fish!”

“Then I’ll also have a taste of this crayfish.” Tony was a little indignant about it, so he also ordered one crayfish. He saw beer at the drinks section, and ordered a pint of cold beer to see if the beer in this restaurant could be on par with that of Ayi Crayfish Restaurant.

Abraham, who was thinking of what to get for dinner, suddenly sat up straight when he heard Vanessa’s order. He pulled a face, and told her, “Insanely spicy again! Let’s… let’s discuss this first. You just had the insanely spicy hot pot yesterday. We might not even be able to take the super spicy…”

“But the insanely spicy level is the best. Especially the feeling where your tongue gets all tangled up from the spiciness. Don’t you find it especially interesting?” Vanessa looked at Abraham innocently.

“It’s not interesting at all. All I feel is that my butt is no longer mine…” Abraham looked up into the sky, and he suddenly missed the Vanessa who was still undergoing treatment for her teeth. Middle-aged men like him should not be taking things that were insanely spicy.

“Insanely spicy?” Tony was rather curious about the flavor.

“Mister, have some later too. It’s a flavor that Boss Mag created. I heard that real men take on the insanely spicy level. Do you want to give it a shot?” Vanessa asked with a smile. She added, “Most people wouldn’t dare to try it.”

“Heheh. It’s just a little spicier. Easy,” Tony said relaxedly. What a joke. Could there be food in this world that he would actually be afraid of?

It doesn’t exist!
