Chapter 1974: Why Don’t We Order One To Try?
Sicarra stared at Mag. She was surprised that the boss of this restaurant was actually a handsome young man around the age of 30. Be it his temperament, figure, or skin, he looked more like a successful elite. If he hadn’t been wearing a chef’s suit, she wouldn’t have associated him with the greasy chefs.
Genevieve was also sizing Mag up. As an experienced chef who had worked in the breakfast industry for over 30 years, she had been hearing a lot about the customers praising Mamy Restaurant’s breakfast lately. She was already rather interested in this boss whose restaurant was already famous after only six months in operation.
At first, she had considered if she was suitable when she heard that this boss was single with a child. After all, she was also a widow with a child now.
However, after seeing Mag, she began to consider if Sicarra was more suitable instead.
She threw a side glance at Sicarra, and saw that she had an infatuated expression. She couldn’t help laughing. Gaga indeed wasn’t that important.
Amy went up, pointing to Sicarra, and said, “Father, that big sister said she was looking for her goose.”
Mag smilingly said to Sicarra, “Please come in. The roast goose is today’s new product. I think you will like it if you like to eat goose.”
This maiden was around 20 years old. She wore a long cotton dress, and had her long black hair tied up behind her. She looked very refreshed, but her eyes were red as if she had just cried.
I’m looking for a goose, not a roast goose! Moreover, I like goose. I don’t like to eat goose! Sicarra roared inwardly. However, after seeing the adorable Amy and Mag with a gentle smile, she swallowed her words, and weakly said a “thank you” before jogging into the restaurant with a blush.
“I’m not here to eat roast goose. I’m here to look for Gaga! Yes, that’s it!” Sicarra told herself that inwardly. She found a seat near the kitchen, and called her mother over.
Genevieve sat down, and praised, “This restaurant is really good. The boss has spent a lot of effort on decorations. No wonder so many people like it. Just with this environment alone, other restaurants cannot compare with it.”
As an experienced F&B person, she had her pride too.
However, her pride had disintegrated after she entered Mamy Restaurant.
Her breakfast shop focused on clean and cheap, letting her customers have a good and cost-effective meal.
Meanwhile, this restaurant exuded an exquisite and comfortable feeling as soon as one entered. All the decorations and furniture complemented one another. It was definitely unique among the restaurants on Aden Square.
Because they were on completely different levels, Genevieve accepted the psychological suggestion that there was no need for comparison easily. She changed her mindset to a customer’s, and started praising this restaurant.
“Mother, you’ve changed.” Sicarra looked at Genevieve judgingly. “You weren’t the type who would praise another restaurant.”
She had heard Genevieve diss all the restaurants that they had tried before. Her nitpicking skills were still unmatched today.
“I’m just an ordinary customer today,” Genevieve said calmly.
Sicarra pursed her lips to show that she didn’t believe her, but she didn’t pursue it, either.
“We’re not here to eat. We’re here to look for and save Gaga.” Sicarra lowered her voice, and looked at Genevieve with a serious expression. She pointed to the kitchen with one finger. “Gaga could be in there right now, waiting for us to save it. If we don’t act, it will really become a roast goose.”
Genevieve stared at Sicarra’s face, and hesitated before saying, “Why don’t we look at the menu, and find out about our situation first?”
“Alright.” Sicarra nodded unwillingly.
“This red braised pork looks quite good!”
“This steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers looks spicy. It’s not suitable for you, Mother.”
“I have heard of this tofu pudding before. A friend said that her skin looked 10 years younger after eating it.”
“I also have a friend who kept recommending me to try this. I have had a few pimples on my face lately. I wonder if it really works?”
“…”
Amy sat behind the counter with Ugly Duckling in her arms, and began lecturing it. “See, it’s so forgettable being a goose. It can’t even compare to a bowl of tofu pudding.”
Jessica worriedly said, “But they seem to be really looking for a goose.”
“I will be panicking if I lose my goose too,” Amy said.
Ugly Duckling turned around, and looked at Amy with a gleam in its eyes. Its owner indeed still loved it.
“What a precious thing. It will turn into a delicious roast goose after Father roasts it. Anyone will panic if they lose it,” Amy said seriously.
“(???)???” Ugly Duckling eyes instantly widened. Listen to that. Is she for real?
Sicarra and Genevieve studied the menu excitedly. It was such an exquisite menu, and every dish’s picture was in it, so the customers wouldn’t be confused by the strange names. Furthermore, every dish looked so delicious that it was hard for them to decide what to order.
“The roast goose looks not bad, either.” Genevieve found the roast goose under the roast duck category. She was a little shocked after seeing the 2000 copper coins price. “However, it’s just a little pricey.”
Sicarra looked at that bright red enticing roast goose, and gulped while being angry at herself for forgetting about Gaga after reading the menu. “My poor Gaga…”
Genevieve attempted to ask Sicarra, “Why don’t we order one to try?”
“No. That is too much!” Sicarra shook her head.
Genevieve continued, “Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. We have to find out how he cooks it so that we can study how to save Gaga.”
“Is it necessary?” Sicarra frowned with uncertainty.
“Of course. We will just watch him make it. If it’s Gaga, we will buy it back with money. This is also our chance too.”
“But…” Sicarra was still a little hesitant.
Miya came to their table, and smilingly asked, “Dear customers, what would you like to order?”
“One helping of red braised pork, one helping of sweet tofu pudding, and one helping of eggplant with garlic sauce.” Genevieve ordered what she wanted, and then stole a peek at Genevieve before ordering another dish. “Additionally, one roast goose.”
Sicarra’s expression changed, but she restrained herself in the end. Then, she ordered one helping of savory tofu pudding and one helping of stir-fried octopus tentacles.
This is to save Gaga, Sicarra told herself inwardly.
“Alright, please give us a moment.” Miya nodded with a smile.
Sicarra stared at the kitchen. That young boss seemed to be doing some preparation work. He was boiling soup or cooking stuff that needed to be cooked in advance.
After a while, the big sister in charge of ordering went in, and passed the orders to him.
Sicarra clenched her fists nervously. She hoped it wasn’t Gaga, yet she hoped it was Gaga at the same time.
Then, she saw the boss take out a goose that was already defeathered from the fridge at the side..
