Chapter 482: Eating at a Secret Restaurant
That day, Meiya happily took her three children out to eat at a restaurant that Ah Hui mentioned. According to her, the food in this restaurant was quite good, and the location was very hidden and difficult to find.
"So, we haven't arrived yet?" Mingxu looked around in confusion. The houses here basically looked the same, and this place was on an uphill road, so walking on it was bound to be a bit tiring. Xiaoxin was obviously getting a bit impatient.
"It's not here yet? I'm almost tired and so hungry." Xiaoxin complained.
"Strange, according to the address Hui gave me, I remember it was nearby." Meiya looked around awkwardly, it seemed like she had been here once before...
"Mom, I think we've been here once before." Mingxu looked around and said speechlessly.
"Oh, mom is really infatuated." Xiaoxin looked exhausted.
"It's just carelessness." Mingxu rolled his eyes at him.
"It's all Hui's fault for not giving me the detailed address." Meiya directly pushed the responsibility and looked around, but she really couldn't find the so-called sign. According to Hui, the sign was very small. Could it be that it was really that small?
"Really? If you don't know, just ask." Shin-chan said as he looked at the house next to him, crawled over, and rang the doorbell.
"Ah? How can you ring the doorbell without permission?" Mei Ya was shocked when she saw this. This kid really does what he says.
"To be honest, it's a good idea to ask now." Mingxu spread his hands. This was the reason why he didn't stop Xiaoxin.
"I'm here. Who are you looking for?" Then the other party's voice came from the doorbell.
"Ah? Sorry to bother you, is there a shop nearby called..." Meiya said hurriedly, but as she was speaking she saw two children walking towards the opposite side and was stunned.
"what?"
"Ah, it's okay, it's okay. May I ask if you know a secret restaurant called something?" Meiya shook her head and continued asking.
"Mom, this way." At this time, Mingxu's voice came, and the other party just said: "It's just across the street." After that, he hung up, and his attitude became cold.
"Ah?" Meiya was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at where the two children were. Mingxu pointed to a small sign in the bushes nearby and said, "It's right here. It's really small."
"It's true." Meiya walked over and looked at the sign with a twitching mouth.
"Ding-ling~" the door opened. It must be that the person inside heard the noise outside and opened it to check.
"welcome."
"Grandpa, is the restaurant called Pig's Tail right here?" Shin-chan asked casually when he saw someone coming out.
"If you mean the pony's mane, this is it." The old man looked at them and smiled.
"Haha, can we bring the child in?" Meiya saw the owner of the house come out, folded up the stroller, picked up Xiaokui and asked.
"No problem, this place is like a family restaurant, please come in." He then made way to let them in.
"Thank you~" Mingxu and the others said politely and walked in. Mingxu helped Meiya bring the stroller in.
"Excuse me, do we need to take off our shoes here?"
"Yes, just think of it as visiting a friend's house." The old man nodded and said, "Please come this way." He put his five fingers together and pointed to the doorway on the side.
"Oh! Let's play rock, paper, scissors! Rock, scissors, paper! Grandpa will be the ghost! Count to twenty." When Shin-chan saw the other party's gesture, he immediately became interested. He played scissors to win, then opened the door of the room and ran in.
"..You don't have to care about it." Mingxu looked at the other party helplessly.
"...That's right." The old man said awkwardly.
"Xiao Xin, don't run around." Mingxu walked into the house and found that Xiao Xin had really hidden himself.
"The room is so beautiful and the furniture is so elegant." Meiya walked in and said with some surprise when she saw the layout inside.
"These are all furniture from the British Empire. I work in a trading company and bought them because I thought they looked nice," the old man introduced.
"Wow~" Meiya walked around and exclaimed at the flowers and plants planted in the yard: "The yard is so beautiful."
"I really enjoy taking care of the garden, and of course it would be even better if the guests are happy," the old man continued.
"Okay, kid, come out here!" At this time, the two heard Mingxu's voice and realized that the two children were missing.
"No way?" Seeing this, the old man hurriedly ran to the bedroom door. Just as he was about to open the door, he saw Mingxu pulling Xiaoxin out.
"Sorry to trouble you." Mingxu said embarrassedly when he saw the other party was stunned.
"It's okay. But you can't enter this room." The old man said seriously when he saw the two of them.
"Okay. Let's go prepare for dinner." Mingxu nodded and pulled Xiaoxin to the restaurant and sat down.
Meiya smiled awkwardly, Shin-chan is such a disgrace!
"Welcome." At this time another old lady came out and smiled when she saw them.
"Hello."
"This is the lunch menu." The other party handed them a menu.
"Okay, thank you." Meiya took the menu and started looking through it. As she looked, she asked, "Excuse me, are you the hostess here?"
"He's also the restaurant's chef." The old lady nodded.
“This restaurant is really beautiful.”
"Thank you for your compliment. It has always been my dream to open a small restaurant. Hahaha~" The other person covered his mouth and laughed.
"...I'll have Set A, Xiaoxin and Xiaoxu, are Set D okay for you?" Misae asked after looking at the menu.
"I can." Mingxu nodded.
"Ah, don't decide for me casually. What is set D?" Shin-chan asked with a puffed up face.
"Hamburger patties cooked in Norwegian Forest mushroom style." Mingxu read out while looking at the menu.
“Are these mushrooms really from there?”
"I think it's just a style, it doesn't necessarily come from there." Mingxu shook his head.
"Um, thinly sliced beef..."
"Sorry, package B is sold out." The old man said embarrassedly.
"What about Package C?"
"The ingredients for Set C have also run out."
"..Then that leaves Package A and Package D?"
"Meal D is actually gone too." The old man added, remembering something.
"...So only meal A is left." Mingxu said with a twitch of his mouth.
"Yes."
"What is Meal A?" asked Shin-chan in confusion.
"Parisian style seafood salad and black pepper steak style." The old man said casually.
"...Children can't eat pepper, it will be too spicy." Meiya said speechlessly.
"It's okay, we can make it non-spicy." The old man said calmly.
"Then give me three servings, two for children." Mingxu said casually.
"Okay." After saying that, the old man walked into the kitchen.
"It's a shame there's not even any children's meals." Meiya complained as she looked at the amount on the bill.
"It's okay, Mom, it's okay." Mingxu shrugged and picked up Xiaokui, almost touching the water cup on the table.
"How do you want it done?" A voice came from the kitchen.
"Forehead.."
"You do this again!"
"No, it's only the third time!"
"The third time is a lot! Go ask!"
"Okay." The old man came over and asked, and when he learned that they all wanted it medium-rare, he went back.
The soup was then served, and someone stood behind them and watched them eat.
"..It feels weird." Mingxu's mouth twitched. Do I have to stare at them?
"How does it taste?" Mei Ya was also very concerned, but when she turned around, she saw that face appear in front of her and was shocked.
"..."
“How does the soup taste?”
"It tastes very good..." Meiya said awkwardly.
"Emmm, it feels like a soup that has been cooked slowly and leisurely." Xiaoxin said, touching his chin.
"The heat is not yet enough." Mingxu added.
"..." Meiya and the old man were both embarrassed.
After drinking the soup, the other party brought some bread and the few of them ate it boredly.
"It's so slow." Xiaoxin said speechlessly.
"That's what I mean." Meiya agreed.
"Sorry for the long wait." At this time, the other party brought another dish, but his hand slipped and it was about to fall. Mingxu caught it quickly and prevented it from falling.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." Seeing this, the old man hurriedly apologized.
"It's okay, it's okay. I caught it." Mingxu waved his hand.
"Hey, why do I feel so tired eating this meal?" Mei Ya complained as she watched the other person walk into the kitchen.
"There's nothing I can do. He's an old man after all." Mingxu shook his head. It was too harsh. What if the other person fell down in front of you?
"Oh~" The three of them sighed. Xiaokui had fallen asleep on the sofa.
In the kitchen, the old lady looked at the other person and the steak in the pot: "You said you don't want pepper for two orders?"
"Yes, there are two children."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
"I said that!"
"You didn't say!"
"Okay, okay. It's going to burn." Mingxu reminded.
"Ah!!!" The other party hurriedly picked up the pot.
. . .
Finally, the steaks were served, and two of them were a little burnt. Mingxu and the others fell into silence as they looked at the steaks in front of them.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." The old man kept apologizing.
"By the way, I'll give you 20% off on this meal." The old man looked at them awkwardly and said.
"Well, let's leave it at that." The three of them looked at each other and shook their heads.
So, when Mingxu and the others finished eating and walked out, the other party still looked embarrassed. After giving them a discount, he sent them out.
"Mom, I was so tired after this meal." Mingxu said helplessly as he looked at the old man who came into the room.
"They gave us a good deal." Xiaoxin said casually.
"If it's not cheap, I'll sue them. What kind of secret restaurant is this?" Meiya complained.
"There's nothing we can do. There won't be a next time anyway." Mingxu shrugged, and the group set off on their way home.
