Chen Ze felt that his cooking skills were improving every day. If this continued, Chen Ze was confident that he could make a complete glowing dish.
"It's really … extremely delicious." Alyssa opened her eyes with satisfaction. Unknowingly, she and Betty had finished all the sashimi.
"How do you feel?" Chen Ze was very proud. This dish could be said to be a very successful dish, although Chen Ze had a bit of trickery.
After all, if Chen Ze had really made it with ordinary snapper, he definitely wouldn't have been able to make this level of Fierce Ice Fresh Snapper Mountain.
"Manager, how much do you intend to sell this dish for?" Alyssa took out a handkerchief from her bosom and wiped her lips.
Chen Ze was stunned. He really hadn't considered this question.
First of all, this was an excellent dish, and the price of its ingredients was destined to not be too low.
There were only ten ice sea fish a year. Chen Ze felt that this sashimi, which used one-tenth of the fish, should at least be sold at a high price.
"Alyssa, how much do you sell this ice sea fish for?" Chen Ze decided to ask the market price first before deciding how much to sell it for.
"Ice sea fish are usually auctioned. The last ice sea fish was sold for about 100,000 gold coins." Alyssa answered quickly. Her chamber of commerce had also participated in that auction.
"Then 10,000 gold coins per serving." Chen Ze nodded. A serving of Fierce Ice Fresh Snapper Mountain used one-tenth of the fish. Chen Ze felt that 100,000 gold coins was a very reasonable price.
"I think it's a very reasonable price. Then I'll …" Alyssa touched her space ring.
"Wait, Alyssa, you only ate less than half of it. Pay for this meal with 5,000 gold coins worth of ingredients." Chen Ze stopped Alyssa's action.
A certain succubus also ate a lot. If Chen Ze bought it at the original price, he would feel that he was treating Alyssa unfairly.
"Five thousand gold coins worth of ingredients?" Alyssa nodded. This was good.
"Yes, but it's best to cherish the ingredients." Chen Ze nodded. He still had a large number of ingredients from the Otherworld in his storage.
"Alright, then I'll visit again next time." Eliza gracefully bowed like a noble and then left.
Betty's face showed that she still hadn't had enough. She was still immersed in that delicious taste.
Chen Ze frowned as he took out his phone. He had just felt his phone vibrate.
As soon as he opened it, he saw three missed calls and two text messages from the same unknown number.
Chen Ze was a little confused. He did not remember what he had been doing recently. Why would someone come looking for him?
Chen Ze opened the text message and glanced at it. It was an introduction from a salesman. Chen Ze roughly looked at it and understood why this guy was looking for him.
As everyone knew, restaurants nowadays all had menus. Even small roadside shops would have a menu with the price of the food on it.
And with menus, a magical industry was born – dish name design companies or dish name designers.
Chen Ze felt that restaurants nowadays were getting more and more out of character. In the past, when Chen Ze went to eat, he saw a dish on the menu called "Crossing the River on a Reed". After ordering it, he found that it was a green vegetable floating in the soup.
At that time, Chen Ze had the urge to call and complain. Later, he encountered some popular restaurants, such as "Love Your Heartbeat Popcorn" and "Love Potato".
This caused Chen Ze to be confused. He really couldn't accept it.
Especially for some menus, the name of the dish could not be recognized at all. Moreover, the waiter would look at you with a caring gaze.
Chen Ze once ordered "This Hatred Will Never End". It was served with durian mixed with yogurt. After that, Chen Ze never went to that restaurant again.
Now, through some unknown means, Chen Ze was targeted by a dish name design company.
The salesman used sincere words to ask Chen Ze to go to their company's homepage to look at the designed dish names. He also briefly explained the importance of dish names.
Then Chen Ze replied, "No need, thank you." After that, he blocked the salesman's phone number.
"Store Manager, why do you suddenly want to look at the menu?" Betty took the menu strangely and handed it to Chen Ze.
Chen Ze put away the menu and then stuffed it into the WALL-E given to him by Tony.
"If there are customers in the future, you can call the WALL-E over and press this button." Chen Ze demonstrated to Betty and pressed the red button on the WALL-E.
Then, a light flashed and a fully virtual menu appeared in the air.
Betty tapped on the Buffy curiously. Then, a cup of Buffy appeared on the table in front of her.
Betty reached out her hand and passed through the cup of Buffy.
"This is the light and shadow model." Chen Ze explained. With this thing, it was also convenient for customers to order dishes.
"Okay. It feels very practical." Betty played with it happily.
"By the way, what did you write?" Chen Ze was a little curious and pointed at the Curry Pork Chop Rice.
"Oh, this. Because we don't have such terms in my hometown, I wrote the Thunderbolt Meat Cuisine." Betty appeared to be quite proud.
Chen Ze took a deep breath.
A Thunderbolt Meat Cuisine? Why don't you write the Absolute Ferocious Meat of the Empire? Or write the Absolute Delicacy of a Rising Star?
Chen Ze had an impulse to ridicule. It reminded him of the situation where there was a language barrier and there were often some special translations.
For example, the world-famous Sherlock Holmes. Some people said that he shouldn't be called Sherlock Holmes according to the transliteration. It was because the first translator was a Hokkien and was influenced by the dialect that it was translated into Sherlock Holmes.
Chen Ze didn't really believe this saying, but it could also be seen how important a translator was.
Once he thought of his Curry Pork Chop Rice being called a Thunderbolt Meat Cuisine, Chen Ze had an impulse to make Betty into a Thunderbolt Meat Cuisine.
"Can't you translate it more accurately?"
"Then … How about Yellow Thunderbolt Meat and Dark Yellow Vegetables?" Chen Ze took a deep breath. The name didn't sound appetizing at all.
Which customer would want to order a dish that sounded inexplicably disgusting?
Chen Ze suddenly felt that it would be better if he didn't have any dishes and set them as the chef's special recommendations.
"Hastur, is this the restaurant you mentioned?" An unfamiliar male voice sounded. Then, Chen Ze saw Hastur and a man walking in together.
Chen Ze raised his eyebrows. The man in front of him was about the same level as Hastur. Who was he?
"Long time no see, manager. This is Nyarlathotep." Hastur introduced his companion to Chen Ze.
Chen Ze's mouth twitched. Narako …
