Chapter 1419: The Darn Tastiness!
The warm and gentle lights brightened up the open-air dining area. It appeared as though there was a spellwork set up so that the chilly wind would be blocked out, making the place very warm and cozy.
Tony leaned into his chair relaxedly. It seemed that this place wasn’t unreasonably expensive.
Although there were customers of various races all around, there was no noise at all. Even when the demons and dwarves were chatting, their voices were very hushed and soft. Eating at a place like this would make one feel very relaxed.
This was not something one would find in other restaurants.
“Hello, this is the braised crayfish you ordered.” Not long later, Yabemiya came over with a tray, and placed the crayfishes in front of each of them.
“It smells so good!” Tony sat up straight and looked at the red crayfish served on the big black plate. His eyes opened wide. “Isn’t this spicy crayfish?”
The crayfish, which had a pair of large pincers, looked exactly like the one he had at Ayi Crayfish Restaurant. He almost couldn’t tell the difference between the two, be it in appearance or size.
Tony suppressed his shock and took a serious sniff. There was a slight difference in terms of the smell.
The garlic crayfish had the fragrance of garlic, and the spicy crayfish had a spicy tinge to it, while the thirteen-spice crayfish had a very rich smell. This so-called braised crayfish had a lighter smell. It did not seem as spicy as the spicy crayfish or as rich as the thirteen-spice crayfish.
However, the smell would make one even more curious about the taste hidden behind it.
That’s strange. Could the owner have gone to Carapace Island to get the ingredients? Or are there other places that produce such crayfishes? Tony had many questions inside. After living on the Demon Islands for so many years, he had never seen a crayfish that looked like this before he ate at Ayi Crayfish Restaurant. He didn’t think he would see it again after coming to Chaos City.
“Today’s crayfish still smells as good. I’m digging in,” Vanessa said with a smile. She picked up one pincer, pulled it out, peeled the shell off, and planted a large bite into the full and juicy pincer meat as she indulged in its taste.
It seems like the way you eat it is almost the same, Tony thought. He looked away from Vanessa and toward the crayfish in front of him, thinking, Heh, even though it looks almost the same, appearance isn’t that important. This crayfish is definitely not fresh. It can never be on par with the one made by Boss Hades.
Tony reached for the crayfish’s head with the mentality of just giving it a try before throwing out sarcastic remarks.
“This smell!” A rich scent wafted over, making Tony’s eyes open wider. It was an unexpected fragrance.
After that, he put the crayfish head to his mouth and sucked on it.
“Oh...
“This darn tastiness!
“How can this crayfish butter be so sweet and delicious!”
Tony was filled with shock. He looked at the crayfish’s head in disbelief. The crayfish butter melted in his mouth, and it did not have any fishy smell. It was fresh and sweet, with a tinge of spiciness. The fragrance of the entire dish was perfectly brought out in this mouthful of crayfish butter.
Fresh!
It was the most direct and best way the word was presented.
As a self-proclaimed best gourmet who knew about seafood, Tony knew very well that the crayfish was absolutely fresh when it was cooked. It was so fresh that it was still waving its pincers right before it was put into the pot.
Other than that, the taste of the dish also caught him by surprise.
It was different from the garlic flavor of the garlic crayfish and the fragrance of the spicy crayfish, and it was even more different from the rich layers of flavors of the thirteen-spice crayfish. This braised crayfish gave him a different feeling. The spices and the tastiness of the crayfish were trapped within the meat of the crayfish. Only when one broke open the hard shell could they enjoy the tastiness within.
It was a surprising taste.
How can this be so delicious? Even though there was a slight difference in its taste and cooking method, this actually is comparable to Boss Hades’s. It was a complete change of mindset that he had before.
After finishing the crayfish butter in the head, Tony pulled out one pincer, and took a bite from it.
The meat was springy, and had a distinct freshness that came from the sea, so Tony was even more certain that this crayfish could not get any fresher. It was not even an exaggeration to say that this crayfish was just fished out of the sea.
The fresh crayfish meat was soaked in the gravy, bringing out the freshness completely. It was completely different from its dry appearance. One bite into the meat was enough to send the gravy squirting around.
Love it.
Tony only had one thought left. That was to continue taking bite after bite to satisfy his indulgence.
After finishing the two pincers, he took a mouthful of the beer. That was simply... sick!
“Mister, how is it? Isn’t Boss Mag’s crayfish super good? Isn’t the crayfish super fresh?” Vanessa asked with a smile.
“This...” Tony blushed. Just a while ago, he had been refuting whatever Vanessa had said, but after trying this crayfish for himself, he was speechless.
“I admit that this crayfish is very good, and it’s unexpectedly fresh. It’s not too much at all to say that it was just fished out of the sea. I take back my words.” Tony nodded. As a gourmet, he had his own professional ethics, and he could not bring himself to say something he did not mean.
Vanessa continued, “Then what do you think about it in comparison to Ayi Crayfish Restaurant at Carapace Island? I’ve seen your essay, and I’m pretty interested in the three crayfish flavors. I would like to try it if there’s a chance.”
“This crayfish tastes completely different, but if I really had to compare, I guess I would base it on the price. For the same price, you can have 10 crayfishes of the same quality at Carapace Island.” Tony looked at Vanessa with a slightly awkward look, and said, “However, I would not really recommend you to go to Carapace Island. After all, it’s pretty chaotic on the Demon Islands, and Carapace Island is the real chaotic island. It’s not really a place a pretty young lady like you should go to.”
He was afraid that this young lady would join the mob to slaughter him.
Besides, Carapace Island was really very chaotic. If such a beautiful human lady went there, anything could happen.
“Yes, yes, yes, why should a young lady like you go to the Demon Islands? Is it that the tofu pudding isn’t good enough, or the spicy grilled fish isn’t spicy enough for you here?” Abraham concurred. He had enough stress on him when she came over to Chaos City. If she were to go all the way to the Demon Islands, the king would probably tear him apart.
“Really? I don’t think so. Before I came over to Chaos City, I also heard that it was very chaotic in Chaos City. But after coming over, I realized that this place is pretty good. Carapace Island might not be a bad place too,” Vanessa said innocently.
“Young Mistress, there’s no hot pot on Carapace Island,” Lola reminded her softly.
“Then I’m not going,” Vanessa blurted out without even thinking.
