Chapter 193: Searching for the Roots (4) (2/2)
“……Does the saucier normally come ask about that?”
“Not normally, but it is a different story when the saucier is a fan of the guest There are also three beauties ……no, four beauties”
Lee Tae Hoon saw Ella’s glare and quickly changed his words Jo Minjun looked around at the others before nodding his head and responding
“Yes Please bring it for us Ah, also……would you be able to do me a favor?”
“What is it?”
“I want to take a look around your kitchen ……I’ve only seen Korean kitchens in movies I’ve never been inside of one”
“Mo too!”
Ella shot her hand up in the air as she shouted out Lisa started to scold her with an embarrassed expression
“No, Ella You’ll bother the chefs”
“……Okay”
Ella responded in a disappointed voice and lowered her hand She ht be a troublemaker sometimes, but she really listened to her
“No It is fine It is time for the chefs to take a break as well I’m sure they will enjoy it if such a cute little lady comes to visit”
Ella lifted her head back up after hearing that and looked toward Lisa with sparkling eyes In the end, Lisa shook her head as if she had no other choice
“Fine But you need to listen to Uncle Minjun, okay? Don’t let go of his hand”
“Okay! I will!”
Ella s on to Jo Minjun’s ar her uncomfortable expression
“Relax, she’s just a kid”
“……I don’t knohat you are talking about I ahtly for being relaxed”
At thatMinjun’s hand, turned around and stuck her tongue out toward Kaya Kaya started to glare, but Ella had already turned back around Lee Tae Hoon started to speak on their way to the kitchen
“It will be a bit different than your expectation”
It was easy to tell why he had said that as soon as they entered the kitchen Other than a few Korean clay pots, the kitchen was very modern You could not really tell whether it was a Korean restaurant or a Western restaurant There were tiles on the wall and floor, and he could see stainless kitchen appliances and refrigerator Lee Tae Hoon started to speak
“It doesn’t look as historic as you expected, does it?”
“I guess that was kind of what I was expecting An island made of wood, or a fire pit made of rocks and sand”
“It is natural The outside of the restaurant looks like the old tile houses”
Ella tapped on Minjun’s back while Lee Tae Hoon was speaking When Minjun looked down, Ella lifted up both of her arms and asked
“Lift me up I want to see it from up there”
Jo Minjun lifted Ella up Thankfully, she was not that heavy Ella saw the clay pot before letting out a gasp of admiration
“That looks like a turtle”
As she said that, an aged man approached them He reached out his hand Once Jo Minjun put Ella down and shook the man’s hand, the man started to speak
“You must be that famous Jo Minjun I heard a lot about you I hear you work at Rose Island?”
“Ah, yes”
“My naory Adams I am the head chef of this restaurant”
Jo Minjun looked shocked at that revelation How could he not? Gregory was Black Gregory started to s
“Why? Are you shocked that a Blackin a Korean restaurant and is the head chef at that?”
“No, well……yes To be honent with you, I am a bit shocked”
“I like that you are honest”
“The food has a very Korean feel to it Of course, there is a slight difference, but based on the ingredients used, you can’t even really call it a difference That is why I was even s more clearly when you look at it from the outside For exa Western cuisine”
“You’re right I didn’t think I’d be like this, but I must have my biases as well I’m sorry”
“No need to be sorry Who in this country is clear of any biases? Even I get uncoone to a restaurant if I go to eat sushi+ and see a White person cutting the fish”
Jo Minjun started to laugh As he picked Ella back up, Gregory started to speak
“Your daughter?”
“No, a colleague’s daughter”
“She’s the cutest kid I’ve seen all year”
“Thank you very hed as she answered The conversation was not that long Jo Minjun did not want to bother the back to their room, Ella put her chin on Minjun’s neck and started to speak in a sad voice
“I wish Minjun was He wanted to say so, but it was too heavy of a subject to just say so about it first Jo Minjun slowly patted Ella’s back before finally starting to speak
“Do you really want to see your dad?”
“……Yes Very much”
“Uncle can’t be your dad ……but I can love you as much as your dad So don’t be lonely Ella Me, and the others, we are all by your side And we all love you very ht?”
Ella did not respond Instead, she clenched on to Minjun’s neck even tighter
What was going on? She was still the saht child from earlier, but Ella ……felt really heavy at that moment
