A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World
Chapter 1986 - Are We Allowed To Do So?Chapter 1986: Are We Allowed To Do So?
The orphanage was built for the children wandering on the streets by Luna’s foundation in the north of the city. It was a huge two-story building for over 500 children. The walls encircled a big 500 square meters yard, and there were play facilities built in the yard. 10-odd staff members were in charge of the children’s daily life.
Luna had told Mag about this before. Resolving the problem of the children’s survival was the most important thing that came before letting the children attend school.
Meanwhile, the foundation also provided certain help to those children whose parents were still around. The city lord’s castle provided them with cheap rental housing that was vacant, and let them stay almost free of charge. The city lord’s castle was also solving the adults’ employment issues enthusiastically, so they could at least survive.
“Thank you.” Mag gave the coachman who helped him offload the kitchenware two silver coins. The extra silver coin was the tip.
“Thank you.” The coachman kept the silver coins with surprise, and quickly expressed his gratitude. He couldn’t even earn that much money in a day usually, so he helped to carry things into the orphanage before leaving.
“Amy, you are here!” A small figure ran over. It was Jessica.
“Mm-hmm. I brought Father along to make a nice barbecue for all of us.” Amy nodded.
“Hello, Uncle Mag,” Jessica greeted Mag.
“Did my little friend Jessica and Amy arrange to play here today?” Mag said with a smile.
Jessica nodded. “Yes. I haven’t seen my buddies for quite some time too.”
“Big Sister Annie.” Jessica went forward to hug Annie. After playing together for a whole day, they had already become good friends.
All the children who were playing in the yard stopped, and looked at Mag and the rest standing at the door timidly. Their eyes held surprise and envy when they saw Amy and Annie.
“Is it Amy? I haven’t seen her for a long time.”
“Yes. Her little dress is so pretty, and she looks prettier too.”
“I remember that uncle. He’s Amy’s dad. He brought us very delicious food previously.”
“Is he bringing delicious food for us again?”
The children chatted softly among themselves. Their gazes landed on the shiny metal grills and the big crate at the side. Many children who had eaten Mag’s braised chicken before already couldn’t help salivating.
Mag saw two staff members walking towards them, and smilingly said, “Little Amy, go and play with children first. I’ll go talk to the staff.”
“Alrighty.” Amy nodded obediently, held Annie’s hand, and walked towards the children.
“Hello, may I ask who you are?” a staff member who came up asked Mag warily, sizing up the grills and the big crate next to him.
“Hello. I am Mamy Restaurant’s boss, Mag. I hope to cook some food for the children today,” Mag replied with a smile.
“Our children are provided with three meals a day, and they already had their lunch. Thank you for your kindness, but this is against the orphanage’s rules. Please return.” The middle-aged female staff member rejected Mag firmly, leaving no room for negotiation.
Mag wasn’t annoyed when he heard that. This meant that the orphanage’s rules and regulations were firmly enforced, and the staff members were very conscientious.
“Mamy Restaurant? The Mamy Restaurant on Aden Square?” The young staff member looked at Mag with shock.
“Yes.” Mag nodded.
The young staff member whispered in the middle-aged staff member’s ear before smilingly saying to Mag, “Please wait a moment. I’ll get the director over. We can’t decide on this matter.”
“Alright.” Mag nodded, and watched that young staff member strode away.
The middle-aged staff member looked at Amy and Annie, who were playing together with the children, with a smile on her face. She turned to say to Mag, “Are they your children?”
“Yes. Both of them.” Mag smilingly nodded.
“What kind children,” the staff member praised sincerely.
Judging from Mag and the two children’s clothing and temperament, it was obvious that they were wealthy people. Although there were often kind-hearted people visiting the children recently, those rich people’s children had an obvious difference and a barrier with the orphanage’s children. It was difficult for them to play together.
Mag watched Amy playing with the children with a smile. Who could have thought that she was once one of them. He would never let that happen again.
Right then, a lean middle-aged man strode over to Mag, and excitedly said, “Hello, Mr. Mag. I am the orphanage’s director, Aneurin. Teacher Luna always mentions you to me.”
Mag looked at Aneurin with a smile. “Hello, Director. I brought my children here today to make some snacks and play with the children. I wonder if we are allowed to do so?”
Aneurin nodded with a smile. “Of course. You are the foundation’s important investor. You have contributed greatly to the cause that allows the children to live here, and the children would definitely love to try the culinary skills of Chaos City’s top chef.”
“You are too kind. I just did a little something within my abilities.” Mag quickly shook his head. It seemed that Luna had been praising him to people outside.
That middle-aged staff member looked at Mag differently after she heard Aneurin’s words.
Aneurin went to the center of the yard, and loudly laughingly said, “Children, this is Mr. Mag. He’s a very formidable chef, and he’s going to cook for us. Are you guys happy?”
“Really?!”
“Happy!”
“I’ve eaten this uncle’s food before. It’s super delicious!”
The children immediately nodded happily. Some of them, who had eaten Mag’s dishes before, were even more excited.
“You guys play first. I will call all of you over when it’s done,” Mag said as he opened up the two grills and set up the ice cream machine, also smiling.
The middle-aged staff member brought a few female staff members over, and said to Mag, “Let us help too. Feel free to tell us what you need.”
“The ingredients are already prepared in advance, but I will need help to distribute the food later,” Mag said.
“Alright.” The staff members retracted their hands that reached for the ingredients.
Mag lit the charcoal up for the grills. Considering the fact that the children had just eaten not long ago, he took 30 minutes to light up the fire before opening the ingredient’s crate. He took out two sets of mutton kebabs and beef kebabs, and began to grill them skillfully.
Over 100 kebabs filled his hands. Mag flipped them up and down and scattered out, creating amazing curves over the grill with sparks flying around.
“Wow!”
“That’s so awesome!”
The children and staff members watched him in a daze. Such superb skills were just like a dazzling performance.
The beef kebabs and the mutton kebabs began to sizzle as they were grilled, and their aroma began to spread. After brushing on the sauce, everyone present made a gulping sound..
