Tan Rou pushed Zhuang Liu to the restaurant she had chosen. It was also a good home-cooked restaurant that she had been looking for for a long time. She had been eating exotic food for a long time, so she would occasionally change her taste.
“This restaurant’s dishes are pretty good. Stir-fried beef, secret-made sea bass, and three fresh mushroom soup are all signature dishes. Here’s the menu, what else do you want to order?” Tan Rou handed the menu to Zhuang Liu.
Zhuang Liu glanced at the menu and then gave it to Tan Rou. “You can order. I’m fine with anything.”
“I’m treating you to a meal today, so you have to order.” Tan Rou insisted.
“Alright,” he said. Zhuang Liu took the menu and looked at it as if he was analyzing a report. “The stir-fried beef is spicy, the secret-made sea bass is delicious, and the three fresh mushrooms soup is hot. Why don’t we order stir-fry vegetables and a cold dish? ”
“I think that’s good fine. How about Osmanthus Water Chestnut?” Tan Rou asked.
“Osmanthus what?” Zhuang Liu’s eyes twitched. “This… It’s written horse hooves here. Isn’t there going to be a bloody smell?”
Tan Rou was stunned. “Huh? Why would it?”
“To tell you the truth, I haven’t eaten horse hooves yet, nor have I eaten horse meat.” Zhuang Liu quickly confessed.
Tan Rou was stunned for a moment and suddenly laughed. “My third young master Zhuang, it’s not actual horse hooves. The scientific name is water chestnut. Look at the menu. Isn’t it Osmanthus Water Chestnut?”
After listening to her, Zhuang Liu carefully searched the menu and found that the Osmanthus Water Chestnut was a dessert.
“I’ve never eaten such things. I’m sorry.” Zhuang Liu said, feeling embarrassed.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t think it through. I thought you would know.” Tan Rou apologized. “But, I’m not surprised. Third young master probably hasn’t seen such cheap dishes in the past.”
“It’s true that I have not seen them.” Zhuang Liu answered honestly.
“Third young master, you’d better have a good taste today.” Tan Rou ordered an ice-cold one.
While waiting for the dishes, Zhuang Liu crazily read up on plants to prevent Tan Rou from saying something he didn’t know.
“Hello, this is the stir-fried beef you ordered.” A good-looking waitress came in with the dishes. After she came in, her eyes followed Zhuang Liu without moving.
“There are still a few more dishes. Hurry up and serve them.” Tan Rou said so to chase them out quickly.
However, the waiter did not seem to hear her. “If you are not satisfied with the food, you must call me. The principle of our restaurant is to let our customers enjoy themselves.”
Tan Rou asked her to go out again. “I don’t need you to introduce your restaurant. I just need you to serve the dishes quickly.”
Hearing her words, the waiter did not want to stay any longer.
“Yes, Madam.”
Since the dishes were not yet served, the two of them decided to wait. Anyway, the weather was hot, and they were not afraid that the dishes would turn cold.
The next second, another beautiful waitress came in with another dish. “This is the three fresh mushroom soup you ordered. Please enjoy.”
“Just leave it here.”
However, the waiter still brought the dishes to Zhuang Liu. However, Zhuang Liu didn’t even look at her. His attention was only on Tan Rou.”
The third dish was served by a different waiter, which made Tan Rou very angry. “We ordered a total of five dishes. Are you going to serve them in five batches?”
“It’s not ready yet…” The waiter explained in an embarrassed voice.
“Then bring them in together.” Zhuang Liu looked displeased. “You’re doing so many extra things here and there. Are you still trying to run a business here?” He hated employees who dragged their feet the most. If they were from his company, he would have fired them already.
“I’m sorry!” The waiter trotted out after putting down the dishes.
On the last trip, the dishes were served.
Tan Rou knew clearly what was going on. These waiters simply wanted to look at Zhuang Liu because he was handsome. Can Zhuang Liu be someone you take turns to look at?
A good meal had been ruined. Fortunately, the dishes weren’t bad. Otherwise, she would have to talk to the boss. It was just that the desserts weren’t satisfying.
“This restaurant doesn’t seem to be good at making desserts.” After tasting the sweet-scented Osmanthus Water Chestnut, Tan Rou commented, “The fragrance is too strong and it destroys the natural fragrance of the water chestnut. Moreover, it has been cooked for too long, so the water chestnut is not crisp enough. The sweetness is moderate but there’s too many flaws. It’s hard to ignore them.”
It was Zhuang Liu’s first time eating it, so he didn’t know what the others tasted like. He thought it was okay, but if Xiao Rou said it was not good, then it was not.
“Yes, it’s indeed a little lacking.” Zhuang Liu commented.
“If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll cook for you. I guarantee it’ll taste better than this.”
Zhuang Liu’s heart was filled with sweetness. “Sure, I’ll eat whatever you make.”
