Chapter 6 (2/2)

“Inside of that bag is compensation”

The ‘ht was compensation

“Inside of that bag… is ingredients?”

The rade foodstuffs, the Other World Dining Hall’s ingredients, that couldn’t be handled or prepared unless it was the Alfade Co There heat, livestock s that you could find at theways fron countries and delicacies that could only be obtained from monsters that were defeated by hunters and adventurers Trading the Other World Dining Hall’s proceeds with those said things was the deal between Tho Hall

“That’s right Well, every now and then I bring in high-grade healing s that can’t be found here Norh”

“I see…”

Sirius nodded at his grandfather’s words It certainly was a deal fitting for the Alfade Cos like foodstuff for the kingdom

“But what is he going to do with those ingredients? There’s not enough a, I think”

Looking at the situation, the Other World Dining Hall’s one old coins Thinking about the fact that the restaurant was open once every seven days, one day’s proceeds should be a little redients that the old h

“Aah, you see, the owner hi to eat it apparently”

Thomas had that same question in his head when he started this deal with the previous owner and asked him directly The answer to his question was that

“Eat it? The owner of this restaurant will?”

“Aah, the previous oas the sa it to study their flavors”

The ingredients that Thoive to the restaurant’s custo called ‘sanitation’ so he couldn’t give it to the customers Therefore, he’ll eat it himself This is what the previous owner and current owner called ‘research’

“Research?”

“I don’t know the thought process of a chef myself…”

He gave a simple introductory explanation to Sirius who still had a bewildered face In the past, he heard froredients from the Other World

The Other World Dining Hall welcomed people from Thomas’s world as custoue for a japanese person… a person frohtly different Luckily, there weren’t any big differences, but unfortunately, there were still some differences

Therefore, in order to redients that Thoht, and then he would season it to redients from his oorld Like that, he would tune it to match the mouths of the inhabitants from Thomas’s world

“To go through all that… even though he won’t see of a profit”

As he heard that story, Sirius made a face that seemed like he was convinced but still wasn’t convinced Truthfully, looking at the proceeds that ca Hall once every seven days, the rate didn’t add up

“Well, to the owner, the Other World Dining Hall see the custos and be merry seems to be fun for him …The current owner seeard”

As he persuaded his grandson, Thohed He remembered that the previous oas a person who treated cooking like a job and hobby as well The Other world Dining Hall has been open in Thomas’s world for thirty years Thomas knew that the fact the restaurant that the two of them loved and continued was due to the fruit of their labor

“Thanks for the all the hard work All the goods were definitely delivered”

As they had that conversation, the owner came back with two menus

“As always, I’ll treat you to one ite you’d like You too, Sirius”

While he said that like it was a habit, he placed the two menus in front of them

“I’ll have the sahetti with meat sauce Sirius, would you like that too?”

“Yes, I’ll leave it to you, grandfather”

Nodding at their orders, the owner headed back to the kitchen After a short while, what they were looking for came

“Thank you for waiting Your meat sauce”

In front of the two of theether with a large plate filled with plenty of a noodle dish was placed down Covered on top of it was a bright red sauce filled with thin, minced pieces of meat

“Uhetti with meat sauce”

The meat sauce that he had countless tiinning Over thirty years he had increased his repertoire of noodle dishes in the pursuit of flavor There was the ti meat sauce and napolitan which formed a oal’

“Huh? This is… grandfather?”

Once Sirius noticed that he seen this dish before, he became confused With a troubled face, he look to Thonored that and said this

“What, you’ll know once you eat it You’ll know various things Now, let’s eat before it gets cold”

Taking the well-polished fork that was left next to the plate in hand thrusted it into thethe red sauce that was filled with plenty of thin, minced pieces of meat, he entwined the sauce closely with the noodles, and then he coiled a ulp of saliva, he stuffed his cheeks

Delicious Every tihts Meat… in the Other World’s words it is expressed as ‘niku’ Sauce stewed together with the flavor offlavor of the soft cow’s meat that was not raised to plow the fields but raised for the sole purpose of eating and the flavor of the pig’s meat which was raised with the saether Sih, but instead they went through the trouble of finelythe two different flavors of thea flavor that couldn’t be found in either of them Normally, it was a technique used to cover up cheap, bad, or rotting ave birth to a new flavor

And the foundation for the h-quality etable that closely reseo in a remote s in the kingdom, the excitement he felt when he put one of the few dried etable which was cooked well until it coave off a sourness with a hint of sweetness along with plenty of delicious flavor The bright red marmette sauce ether

(Fu with oranie fried in oil and a variety of herbs)

After he sloalled his noodles, he let out a breath When was it that he could tell apart the nuave this sauce its co man, the meat sauce that the previous owner made for him when he first came here could only be described as delicious as he scarfed it down That’s how i at the si noodles that his own house sold

“…Fumu How is it? Sirius The flavor of the Other World’s noodle cuisine”

He called out to his grandson who took one bite and became lost for words After Sirius was dumbfounded for a while, he spontaneously asked Thomas this

“Why does this restaurant have so that we haven’t even released yet!?”

That’s right, he reed to make thanks to the collaboration of the peasants who stocked upthe fresh new vegetable, dom’s fields

It was a ‘new’ noodle sauce that was supposed to be sold during the sureatly refined it spread out on Sirius’s mouth

“Impossible… It can’t be!?”

Instinctively, Sirius looked at the menu filled with unknown na of the words ‘benefactor’s store’ that his grandfather spoke of

“…Grandfather, you”

“That’s right The words genius of culinary innovation is a lie I went… ‘over there’ and just simply ate”

He laughed as he adlad that the day the truth came out finally came

Thomas Alfade was a merchant If there was any incentive, to profit and do business was the belief of a lory

“Now then, let’s finish eating”

As he said that, he took the green tube and the glass bottle filled with a red juice that was left on the table

“What’s inside this green tube is ground, powdered cheese When you cover the ives it a mild taste And this red juice is a sauce called tabasco It has the spiciness of togaran and the sourness of vinegar… it’ll tighten up the flavor of the meat sauce”

As he gave an explanation to his grandson as eating it for the first tie the flavor to your own preference It was the fun of meat sauce

“Be careful for your first time Add too much and you’ll hurt the flavor of the meat sauce”

As he rerandson and then took the two of them in his hand

First, he ate the meat sauce that was carefully covered in tabasco When he did that, a burning, hot spiciness was added to the sourness of thetoo much tabasco and you would end up in the aard situation of having teary eyes, but adding a little tightened up the flavor

Next, he took the finely grated cheese and softly covered it The flavor of the cheese matched ith marmette when it was added to the meat sauce as well, but add too much and its texture would become powdery and the flavor of the cheese would overpower everything After carefully adjusting the volus, he took his fork which was enveloped in ht it to his mouth

(Uht, I should have ot I’m already retired)

The redwith its new spiciness and sourness and finally with the addition of the flavor of cheese gave birth to a new flavor that was different from before that ot he was retired and let out a bitter laugh at that, and as a customer, enjoyed his meat sauce

“hello! You’re open now right!?”

Fro and asked this

After that, the two of the their coffee, they left the restaurant With a slam, the door closed… and disappeared Tholoomy wheat storehouse

“Grandfather…”

Sirius, while still dumbfounded, let out that word When the door disappeared, he thought it was as though it were a dreaone and replaced by a bag in his hand filled with coins On his tongue, he could certainly remember the taste of meat sauce It was not a dreahed at the words his said

“You can only go to that restaurant once every seven days …The next time is in seven days”

As if enjoying his grandson’s reaction, Thomas informed him of this

“I’ll go to that restaurant once every four tio if you want”

He had decided to retire and become a ‘customer’

“Are you sure?”

At theof those words, Sirius licked so and asked his grandfather this

“Aah, its fine If I went as a regular customer and not a merchant, the oouldn’t make an unpleasant face either”

As a perceptive old man, he nodded his head reluctantly His merchant’s instincts told hirandson who overfloith ambition than for him who had a short time left

“Thank you very randfather I see I wonder what I should eat next…”

He looked at his grandson, ould no doubt go again in seven days, with narrow eyes He thought whether his grandson would fulfill his own goal and ‘revive’ the other half of the many noodle dishes in the restaurant and discover the ways to make them
