A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World

Chapter 1482: What If It’s Gloria?

Everyone could not help but turn to look at Harris. He could have gotten an easy vote, but he gave this vote to Mag.

Harris looked at Scheer with a smile, and gave her a thumbs-up as he said, “You’re Ian’s granddaughter indeed. You could make a fair choice.”

“Grandpa once said that you were an impartial chef. He was right,” Scheer replied with a nod. She looked at Harris with respect.

“That’s basic respect for my opponent.” Harris smiled, and looked at Jeffree and Novan. “Please make your choice too.”

“Since that’s the case, let’s give the ox scalp a try. I didn’t know that other than to make leather armor with it, you can also eat ox skin.” Novan picked up a thin piece of ox scalp with his chopsticks. The ox scalp was full of colloid and was translucent, and there was also a layer of chili oil covering it. Novan put it into his mouth.

The fragrance and spiciness exploded in his mouth first. Novan started chewing the ox scalp. Its chewy texture made his eyes light up.

The ox scalp, which was supposed to be very tough, was extremely soft and chewy. He could easily bite into it, and the collagen gave it a slightly sticky texture. However, the gravy balanced out the sticky texture, and gave it a very good flavor.

It felt as though he had unknowingly fallen into a soft trap, and all of a sudden, he was pulled into the abyss of flavor.

Novan savored it carefully. He did not know that ox scalp could be so delicious. After swallowing it, the flavor still lingered in his mouth.

“Boss Mag is really admirable in both his creativity and culinary skills. To be able to make ox scalp into such a soft and chewy delicacy is not easy at all.” Novan put his chopsticks down and looked at Mag with great respect. After that, he slightly regretfully said, “However, at my age, I’d prefer something more refreshing and delectable, so between these two cold dishes, I would prefer Harris’s 18-year-old maiden’s dress. Therefore, I choose the 18-year-old maiden’s dress.”

“That’s of course.” Mag nodded.

A person’s taste and preference were very subjective. Some people would rather have a bowl of plain porridge with salted vegetables compared to seafood and delicacies.

Everyone looked at Jeffree. He was the only one left who had not tasted the food.

Jeffree looked at the red hot husband and wife lung slice and frowned. He had not seen such oily and flavorful food on his dining table for several years.

Just like what Novan said, at their age, they would prefer something refreshing and delectable, and Harris’s dish was right up his alley.

However, since he had already agreed to become the judge for today, it was not nice of him to make a decision before trying, so he picked a piece of ox heart.

The dark brown ox heart was sliced so thinly that he could see the fine lines on it. It glistened in the light because of the red chili oil, and that gave it a lot more color. In addition, that fragrant tinge of spicy smell that wafted over was not as pungent as he thought it would be.

Jeffree looked at it for a while before putting it into his mouth and chewing it.

The thin ox heart melted in his mouth, and he only needed to chew it softly for the tangy spiciness to explode in his mouth.

His dormant taste buds suddenly exploded as though someone poured hot oil on them. That strong sensation even made him feel as though he could not control his body.

Rip!

The sound of cloth ripping broke the silence. Three buttons from the tightly buttoned-up shirt popped out, and the inner shirt also tore.

Torn clothes!

Everyone was shocked when they saw that.

They did not expect President Jeffree, who was always solemn and strict, would actually have such a strong reaction when tasting this dish.

“This taste!” Jeffree was completely immersed in the fragrance of the tangy spiciness. He did not find the taste strange because it was an organ, and there wasn’t any greasiness, either. The fragrance of the tangy spiciness was brought out completely by the ox heart.

His taste buds, which had gotten used to plain food, seemed to be rejoicing with revenge.

He felt as though he could see his younger self.

He traveled far and wide, almost covering the entire Norland Continent.

Back then, he liked to eat and drink, and would always pull a cart full of goods with an aim to conquer every piece of land.

Time flew, and he was no longer able to ride on his horse as he continued to expand his business empire. However, his calm heart was once again burning with passion because of this taste.

The Moreton Family had stagnated for several years, and his expectation for Cyril was no longer for him to continue strengthening the family’s power. He was content enough if Cyril could guard whatever the Moreton Family had.

But right now, a crazy thought surfaced in his mind.

What if it was someone else?

What if it was Gloria?

With her tenacity and capabilities, could she set the Moreton Family back on sail, reach to even further places, and catch up with the Buffett Family once again?

He felt his heart thumping intensely as his hesitation became resolution.

After a very long time, Jeffree opened his eyes slowly. His forehead was covered with perspiration. He looked at Mag, and a smile appeared on his solemn face as he said, “At my age, I should have been past the stage where I would like this kind of dish. However, this dish was an exception. It touched me like never before, so I will choose the husband and wife lung slice.”

“Thanks.” Mag nodded gently. He was a little shocked that Jeffree would actually vote for him.

Now that he had another judge’s vote, Mag was currently leading with 2:1.

“Master Harris is still as good as before, and the 18-year-old maiden’s dress was very delightfully surprising, while Mr. Mag’s husband and wife lung slice was a unique delicacy using five different parts of an ox. That was an even more pleasant surprise. It was a difficult decision, but I chose the husband and wife lung slice.” Robert lifted his hand in Mag’s direction.

“Then I will not make further comments. Boss Mag’s husband and wife lung slice suits my taste. It would be better if there was some alcohol,” Michael said with a smile.

The final outcome of the husband and wife lung slice vs the 18-year-old maiden’s dress was 4:1!

“Boss won this round!” Yabemiya jumped elatedly.

The other ladies from the restaurant were also smiling. They were no longer as nervous, since the competition would have ended if they lost the second round.

“It seems like the husband and wife lung slice is way better than the other one in terms of taste.”

“It was just a cold dish, but Master Harris made it into art, while Boss Mag made it into a main dish. Although there was a clear winner, I think that the two are actually on par.”

Now that the overall score was 1:1, the duel had become more intense. Everyone was anticipating who would win the upcoming round!

The audience started to become a little excited and unsettled.

Just then, a soft voice said, “Er… Can I try these two dishes?”
