Meanwhile, a couple was strolling along the street and discussing what to have for lunch.
“How about Jetroinian food?” the man suggested. “Since it's so hot, I don't feel like eating local cuisine. Why don't we have Jetroinian dishes instead?”
His girlfriend shook her head. “I don't enjoy foreign cuisine. But the hot weather has indeed killed my appetite; I don't feel like having anything.” “That won't do!” Furrowing his brows, the man added, “We still need to have lunch, especially since you barely had anything for breakfast. Why don't we find a restaurant? At the very least, you should grab a bite to eat. Or else, you might end up with stomach problems.”
“In that case, what should we have?”
With that, the couple was back to square one.
At that moment, the woman spotted a newly opened restaurant nearby.
There were congratulatory flower stands at the entrance, while a stove could be seen near the window. Even though she was a few meters away, she could hear the pot of water bubbling away.
“That looks to be a newly opened restaurant.” She proposed, “Shall we give it a try?”
Knitting his brows, the man remarked, “Maureen's Kitchen... Its decorations don't look impressive at all. Besides, who puts a pot in front of their restaurant on their opening day? Perhaps they're forced to resort to such tactics because they couldn't attract any customers on the first day with their terrible-tasting food.”
After a brief hesitation, the woman
replied, “It could be. Nevertheless, let's check it out.”
Just as she spoke, she ran toward the restaurant with the man in tow.
The moment she approached, she saw a young woman giving instructions to the person beside her. Even as a woman herself, she had to admit that the latter's beauty was ethereal.
“The water is almost ready. It's time to put the ravioli in. Also, is the sauce done yet?”
Judging from the tone of her voice, the beautiful woman's clearly the owner of the restaurant.
The woman whispered to her boyfriend, “Why is the restaurant owner so young? I have a feeling that you're right. Their dishes probably aren't very good.”
