Food Wars, my food not only glows!

　Alice Nakiri nodded emphatically, then jogged outside to modify the standee.

　At this moment, as time passed, more and more customers began to look around at the restaurant entrance. They were interested in the content on the standee, but also hesitated.

　There's no such thing as a free lunch. The more free something is, the more expensive it is. No one dares to try it if they're unsure whether it's real or not.

　"Young lady, is this place where you can have fish ingredients processed into fish dishes for free? Are any kinds of fish acceptable?"

　"That's right, as long as it's fish, we can process it into the dish you want! And the first three days are free, after which it will be charged."

　"Yes, yes, of course!"

　Upon seeing Alice Nakiri emerge, someone immediately approached to inquire. After receiving her affirmative answer, a joyful expression appeared on their face. They then walked towards Mil, a fishmonger who was selling fish not far from the shop entrance, and bought some fish.

　Alice Nakiri glanced at it a few times before returning to the kitchen. The old man was coming soon, and she had to hurry up and make pan-fried sea bass.

　Because it was her birthday and the first order from the new store opening, Alice Nakiri needed to make a strong impression, so she decided to give it her all.

　"Grandma, this is it, be careful."

　A simply dressed young woman helped an old woman into the restaurant. As soon as they stepped onto the stairs, they were stunned to see the restaurant packed with customers.

　What's going on? Did she come to the wrong place? How come there are so many people! I remember there wasn't a single customer inside just over ten minutes ago!

　But in this situation... it seems there's nowhere for them to sit. What should they do?

　The girl helped her grandmother up, and Sheng Shang looked anxious. In this situation, they couldn't get up, but it wouldn't do for them to just stand there either!

　"You're here! Please sit over there. It's reserved for you. The pan-fried sea bass will be served in about three minutes."

　Just as the girl was hesitating and her grandmother was about to offer words of comfort, Bai Yuan suddenly appeared in front of them, leading them with a smile to the pre-prepared location.

　He would never make such a basic mistake as leaving the birthday girl without a seat, so he had someone reserve a seat for her early on, just waiting for her to arrive.

　The restaurant's popularity surprised even him; it seems that the word "free" is an absolute weapon for attracting customers, no matter the country.

　With fish vendors right outside the door offering good quality fish at low prices, the restaurant quickly became a thriving success.

　"Thank you for your help."

　Upon hearing Bai Yuan's voice, the simple-looking girl immediately showed an expression of ecstatic joy. She then bowed deeply in his direction to express her heartfelt gratitude, and then helped her grandmother to sit down in the seat designated by Bai Yuan.

　Bai Yuan simply waved his hand and then went into the kitchen, where Alice Nakiri was busy in front of several pots.

　Although it looked a bit chaotic, no mistakes were made until the end.

　"We should hire a few more kitchen helpers. With Alice's current abilities, she can only manage a maximum of four pots at a time, which is still not enough..."

　Although the dark secret technique Silver Chopsticks Ten Pots had been taught back to Alice Nakiri, the child lacked talent and only learned the basics after two years of study.

　He could control four pots at the same time, even before he sought out Zhu Qi, the Flying Sage. Controlling five pots was a qualitative leap.

　"Master, you're back."

　Seeing Bai Yuan return, Alice Nakiri continued working and looked up to greet him.

　"You just do your thing and don't get distracted. The guest celebrating his birthday has arrived, and I'm going to cook longevity noodles for him now. You should hurry up too."

　"clear."

　After saying this, Bai Yuan looked at the dough that had risen on the cooking table not far away, and the boiling water in the pot.

　The most basic requirement for longevity noodles is that they must remain unbroken.

　Thinking of this, Bai Yuan raised his hand and tossed the dough into the air, while simultaneously sprinkling flour onto the cutting board. He then pulled it up and folded it in half, repeating this action three times.

　Longevity noodles are different from ordinary thin noodles. The noodles need to be long and thin so they don't break easily, and they need to be chewy and elastic. So three folds are enough.

　deal with

　The longevity noodles are dropped into boiling water, and the noodles are exactly ten meters long from beginning to end, symbolizing perfection and a long life.

　Put salt, MSG, light soy sauce, pepper, and chicken bouillon in a bowl, sprinkle with chopped green onions, and finally pour boiling hot noodle soup over it to bring out the aroma of the seasonings.

　Pour the cooked longevity noodles directly into the broth, allowing the noodles to absorb the flavors, and then place a poached egg on top.

　Thus, a bowl of longevity noodles filled with blessings was completed. Bai Yuan placed the dish on a plate and carried it to the old lady with one hand.

　At this moment, she was chatting with her granddaughter, her rough hands holding the girl's soft white hands. Despite the noise around them, they were not affected at all, and their faces were always smiling.

　"Hello, this noodle is a gift for the birthday celebrant. In my country, it is called longevity noodle, which means long life and a long life of a hundred years."

　Bai Yuan placed the noodles on the table and explained in fluent Danish that it was a perk offered by the shop. The old lady clearly understood him and smiled.

　"Thank you, you are such a good person."

　"The pan-fried sea bass should be almost done. I'll go get it. The noodles are still a bit hot since they just came out of the pan, so please be careful when you eat them."

　After giving a brief explanation, Bai Yuan turned and left without saying much more, while the girl and her grandmother turned their attention to the longevity noodles in front of them.

　"It looks really good. I heard that the longevity noodles in the East are only one strand, connected from beginning to end. I wonder if that's true. Grandma, please try it. The shop owner made it especially for you."

　The girl handed the chopsticks to her grandmother and couldn't help but swallow as she looked at the noodles in the bowl, because the aroma in the air was just too tempting!

　It's just a simple bowl of noodles with an egg on top, so why does it smell so delicious? It doesn't make sense!

　"My dear, you should eat too."

　"No, Grandma, the owner said that these noodles shouldn't be shared, otherwise our good fortune will be diminished."

　Hearing her grandmother's words, the girl's face flushed slightly, and she quickly looked away, then said in a muffled voice.

　"Having you by my side is the greatest blessing. Watching you eat makes me happy too. That's enough for me, and it's also my birthday wish. Let's split it in half, Grandma will give you half."

　As Grandma spoke lovingly, she placed her chopsticks into the longevity noodles, gently picked up a noodle, and then a dazzling golden light emerged from the gaps in the noodle, instantly filling the entire restaurant.

　All eyes were drawn at that moment.

　Chapter 41 The Sensation Caused by the Glowing Cuisine

　"A dish that glows?!"

　It's unclear who spoke first, but gasps of shock filled the room.

　"How is that possible? How could such a run-down little street shop produce such 'glowing' cuisine! Even five-star hotels rarely have this kind of food!"

　The man's voice was filled with shock. At the same time, the sound of chairs being moved around rang out. The customers who had been waiting for their food in their seats had all come to the girl's side with her grandmother.

　"And it's just a bowl of noodles that looks incredibly simple! To make such a dish shine is extremely difficult. Has the chef's culinary skills reached this level?!"

　There were many people at the scene, including some knowledgeable people who had eaten pork even if they had never seen a pig run. They understood the culinary skills displayed in this dish, so how could they not be terrified!

　A chef of this caliber is in Denmark!

　"I can't believe it, there really are glowing dishes in the world! Although it was only for a brief moment, I'm sure what I saw wasn't an illusion!"

　A group of people surrounded the longevity noodles, their faces filled with intense longing and greed, their mouths drooling profusely, and even their souls trembling!

　"Name your price! I'm willing to pay 1 crowns for this bowl of noodles!"

　"You think you can get this level of cuisine for 1 crowns?! That's a pipe dream! I'll give you 5 crowns! Just let me slurp up some noodles!"

　"I'll pay 2 crowns just to have a sip of soup. Then I can brag to others that I've eaten a dish that glows!"

　In an instant, the restaurant turned into a bidding site, with diners bidding one after another, all wanting to taste the legendary glowing dish.

　If they weren't worried about offending the chef and being barred from entering again, they would have already started snatching it!

　This is a dish that shines! In the market, a single serving would cost at least a million dollars; only a five-star chef could make it!

　"Alright, everyone, please disperse. This is longevity noodles that I specially prepared for the birthday celebrant. If you want to eat some, bring your birth certificates on your birthday, and I will make them for you then, free of charge."

　Looking at the diners gathered together, Bai Yuan, who had just come out of the kitchen, frowned. After thinking for a moment, he understood the reason and spoke up.

　Because of his exceptional culinary skills, everything he cooks shines, even a simple bowl of longevity noodles.

　This is the result of mastering all the basic skills, such as knife skills, heat control, and seasoning!

　"They can give it away for free on a birthday?"

　"The glowing dish was given away for free?! How terrifying! This is glowing food! Shouldn't we be extremely careful and cautious, making it possible to create even one out of dozens or hundreds of dishes? Could this be one of those too..."

　Watching Bai Yuan put a plate

　Pan-fried sea bass was served on the table of the young girl and the old lady. A man in a suit swallowed hard, his eyes filled with longing.

　He had never felt such a urge to devour like a wild beast! But given the current situation, he would probably be pulled away before he could even make a move.

　"Gudu, besides birthdays, are there any other ways to eat glowing food? Please, I'll make it no matter what!"

　A curvaceous woman with wavy hair, who looked to be no more than 18 years old, said this. She had a great figure and deliberately shook her head a couple of times as she spoke, as if hinting at something.

　As she spoke, she tried to reach out and grab Bai Yuan's arm, wanting to pull him into her arms, but he skillfully dodged her.

　"I don't usually make a move, but I was just in the mood today, so I made a bowl of birthday noodles for the old lady."

　However, you can have high hopes for the head chef; she's a master chef, and while I can't guarantee anything else, she'll definitely satisfy your taste buds.

　Looking at the young woman with a subtle expression, who seemed somewhat disappointed, Bai Yuan felt a little disgusted, and then spoke in a deep voice to everyone present.

　"A master chef? The head chef of this restaurant is a master chef! I can't believe it, there are fewer than one master chef in all of Denmark!"

　"If this person is already this amazing, then the head chef of this restaurant must be even more amazing! Maybe he can even make dishes that glow!"

　Some people made this guess, and the discussion became very lively, making the atmosphere at the scene cheerful for a moment. However, Bai Yuan frowned.

　"Alright, everyone go back to your seats and stop disturbing other people's meals."

　Bai Yuan reached out and slapped the table, trying to attract everyone's attention, but no one paid any attention to him.

　After learning that he wouldn't cook for them and wasn't the head chef of the restaurant, his value plummeted. Therefore, the customers completely ignored him, continuing their conversations and expressing their anticipation; some even wanted to buy the longevity noodles.

　"I'll say it again, everyone get back to your seats and stop disturbing other people's meals. If you don't want to stay here, get out! Since you've come to my restaurant, you have to abide by my rules."

　This restaurant has only one rule: if you want to eat here, you must listen to me, and you must absolutely obey my orders; otherwise, don't come back!

　Seeing the scene still chaotic, Bai Yuan directly raised his inner strength to his throat and let out a roar similar to a lion's roar. A terrifying aura emanated from his entire body, pressing down like a torrential downpour, making people feel a chill in their hearts.

　"It's just a meal, does it have to be so serious? Anyone who didn't know better would think it was some kind of auction. Don't they know the customer is always right...?"

　Swallowing hard, seemingly embarrassed and annoyed at being startled, a man in casual clothes muttered to himself. Just as he was about to return to his seat, he looked up and found Bai Yuan staring at him.

　"W-What are you doing?!"

　The man in casual clothes tried to appear calm as he said that Bai Yuan's aura was directed at everyone and didn't exert much pressure on any individual.

　But now, the other party seems to be angry and is putting all their pressure on him, which makes his face turn pale.

　"Get out of here right now! You're not welcome here. Don't force me to take action!"

　Bai Yuan looked at him coldly. Perhaps because he had been in this world for so long, he had almost forgotten what it felt like in the Dark Cuisine World.

　"You should feel fortunate to live in such a peaceful era, otherwise, let alone chop you up and feed you to the dogs, it would be impossible for you to walk out with all your parts intact."

　Bai Yuan bent down, his voice containing a hint of restraint. His muscles bulged, making his extremely loose clothes bulge, which made the man's thighs tremble.

　At that moment, he felt as if he were being stared at by a prehistoric behemoth; its black eyes seemed to turn blood red, and fangs protruded from its mouth...

　"Wow! Help! There's a monster!"

　Suddenly, the man in casual clothes screamed, a wet patch appearing on his trousers. He then scrambled out of the shop, shouting as he went. Passersby, seeing this, silently dialed the phone number of a nearby mental hospital.

　The security in mental hospitals these days is really bad; patients can escape so easily!

　"Alright, everyone, just eat normally. As long as you don't do anything too outrageous, I won't interfere. I was just maintaining order in the restaurant. The food will definitely satisfy you."

　After dealing with the young man in casual clothes, Bai Yuan turned to look at the group behind him, trying his best to show a kind and honest smile.

　At this moment, the guests who had been gathered together returned to their seats, sitting upright and looking straight ahead, which seemed somewhat comical.

　In an attempt to salvage his image, Bai Yuan only said a few simple words, but apart from the girl and the old lady who had just been helped, no one dared to look him in the eye.

　"Tsk."

　Sensing the atmosphere, Bai Yuan patted his neck and clicked his tongue lightly. Then, without looking back, he walked towards the kitchen. He needed to give Nakiri Alice some guidance to prevent these guests from gossiping.

　The solution to this negative feedback is simple: just make them willingly stay by offering absolutely delicious food.

　For people in this world, food can even be more important than life itself; they are willing to pay any price to enjoy the finest cuisine.

　This is somewhat similar to the world of "Cooking Master Boy," but unfortunately, this world doesn't seem to have a traditional dark cuisine world.

　Perhaps it exists, but he just hasn't found it yet.

　However, this is also one of the purposes of his travels: if there is a dark cuisine world in this world, then let him inherit it!
