With a piece of fried crab meat stuffed in its mouth, the bird squinted and couldn't help but let out a sigh-like groan.

Although she might have to increase her exercise intensity for the next few days after this meal, she felt it was totally worth it!

The fourth dish was garlic crab.

Garlic, this magical seasoning, is loved by some and hated by others.

Sakaki belongs to the middle category: he's fine with eating it or not.

He grabbed a piece of crab joint meat, opened his mouth and took a bite, then subconsciously sucked it gently.

The garlicky crab juice and crab meat violently assaulted Sakaki's taste buds, as if one after another, large crabs were clamping a string of garlic cloves, fiercely charging into his mouth!

The slightly strong garlic flavor and the bland but extremely fresh crab meat make a very good combination. Sakagi couldn't stop eating after just one bite.

Especially as a joint, it has many recesses that can trap the sauce.

Whenever Sakaki wasn't paying attention, the hidden sauce would explode in his mouth, mixing with the crab meat, creating a unique and interesting flavor.

Not to mention Sakaki and Mato, even Beedrill couldn't resist this delicious taste.

It stood on a stool, chewing a crab stick stuck in one of its cone-shaped hands, its tail stinger twitching involuntarily as it ate.

After enjoying four delicious and visually appealing crab dishes, Sakagi felt a little regretful.

"If I had known this dish was really good, I should have brought all the Pokémon instead of just Beedrill. But it's not too late."

He messaged someone in Team Rocket, asking them to bring their Pokémon to the store.

Sakamoto still remembers that, in addition to the five ways of preparing crab, there was also a beef feast and stir-fried duck with scallions at noon.

After sending the text message, he picked up a silver spoon and reached into the crab shell to scoop out a small bowl of steamed egg custard.

This large bowl of steamed egg custard was served inside the shell of a giant crab. The golden custard was stained with dark yellow soy sauce and garnished with touches of tender green scallions, making it a delightful sight.

Sakagi scooped up a spoonful of the trembling steamed egg custard and put it in his mouth while it was still hot.

In this crab shell steamed egg custard, the delicate aroma of the large-clawed crab permeates the rich fragrance of the eggs, carrying the unique umami flavor of the crab, which can simulate the taste of crab roe, just like eating crab roe paste inside a crab shell.

The famous dish "mock crab" is made with eggs and can simulate the taste of crab by about 60-70%.

After eating a few bites of steamed egg custard, Sakaki turned around and grabbed a steamed crab stick.

He first dipped it in some sauce, then dipped it in the steamed egg custard and coated it with some egg, creating a new flavor.

Chapter 451 Fine Beef Feast and Stir-fried Duck with Scallions

This meal, prepared in five ways, took the two people and a bee almost an hour to finish. The two large clawed crabs were completely devoured, leaving only a table full of crab shells.

Even the steamed egg custard was almost completely eaten.

The real bird touched its belly, feeling both happy and distressed.

"I have no idea how many calories this meal contains!"

While Giovanni, Makoto, and Beedrill were eating, Natsume and Scyther returned to their small room in the restaurant for breakfast.

Scyther eats top-tier Bug-type Energy Cubes, accumulating Bug-type energy within its body.

With continued training and over time, Scyther is confident that he can break through to the Elite Four level within six months.

Summer Solstice meals are simple. Fresh milk from the most popular Milkcan brand in the league, a few slices of toast baked in a bread machine endorsed by Yulongdu, a fried Chansey egg from Chansey Ranch, where the Joy family is a major shareholder, and a fruit from a forest turtle—it's all done casually.

After the two of them and the bee had eaten their fill, Xia Zhi brought out room-temperature honey lemon tea to help cut through the greasiness.

At the same time, it can also help eliminate the taste of crab meat in the mouths of two people and a bee, so that they can enjoy the next dish without being affected.

This honey is not ordinary wild honey or royal jelly, but rather the sweet honey from the queen bee in the Sinnoh region.

On the black market, a 200ml bottle of Sweet Honey can cost as much as 500,000 yuan, making it an exorbitantly priced honey, and it is often available but unsold.

After all, to obtain sweetness, one must face a queen bee and a colony of three honeybees, which is much more difficult than catching a single honeybee.

In the Sinnoh League, only a very few beekeepers can gain the Queen Bee's approval and obtain honey through trade.

To complement the sweetness, the lemons chosen for Summer Solstice are premium varieties from the Sinnoh region, and they are quite expensive.

Upon smelling the sweet scent, the bee immediately showed an eager expression.

Sakaki took a sip of the summer solstice special honey lemon tea and praised it as well.

"It's queen bee honey! This honey can only be produced in the Sinnoh region. Chef Natsu has really got a lot of connections!"

Summer Solstice smiled silently.

Would he say that he obtained the honey from a queen bee colony by "using physical means"?

Sipping his lemon tea, Sakaki glanced at the menu hanging on the wall by Xia Zhi.

With a single glance, Beedrill, as if by telepathy, brought Giovanni a menu.

When Giovanni opened the menu, he found that in addition to common Pokémon that could be used in cooking, such as Krabby, Farfetch'd, and Tauros, there were also Pokémon like Arbok, Politoed, Ariados, Kakuna, Finch, Pidgeotto, Rattata, Sandshrew, and many others on the menu.

Sakaki was shocked at the time.

Just how many Pokémon has this person eaten?

That's a ruthless person!

He looked at the several-page menu in his hand and asked Xia Zhi.

"Boss, have you tried all the dishes on this menu yourself?"

Xia Zhi glanced at Sakaki and nodded slightly.

"What the customer said is ridiculous. As a chef, would I dare to serve customers dishes that I've never even tried? Besides, there are many dishes that sound delicious but are actually substandard that won't appear on my menu."

Sakaki immediately became interested.

"for example?"

"For example, Charmander."

Xia Zhi introduced it to Sakaki.

"Charmander's meat is too firm. Unless it's a Charmander that has just hatched from a Pokémon egg, its meat is tough and dry, and doesn't taste as good as chicken, so it's not suitable for eating."

"And then there's Bulbasaur. At first, I thought this half-plant, half-animal Bulbasaur would have a unique flavor that would give me a sense of freshness from nature, but it actually tasted like woody chicken, which left a deep impression on me."

"Squirtle can be used for soup, but it's too big and doesn't absorb flavor as easily as a regular turtle, so the taste is much worse. It's better to just eat turtle or soft-shelled turtle."

This means that Chef Natsu has eaten at all three of the top restaurants in the Kanto region!

Sakaki looked surprised upon hearing this.

He knew that many people in this world would secretly engage in sexual acts to satisfy their desire for control and their curiosity.

Besides, some elf meat is indeed quite good.

(Big Green Duck: When will the duck be able to stand up? QAQ)

But this was the first time he had ever seen an abnormal human who actually intended to eat all the elves!

I sensed a desire to reclaim it.

Having just finished eating, Sakaki wanted to exercise to help digest his food.

He wiped the smile off his face, and a faint aura of a Heavenly King began to emanate from his body, pressing down on Xia Zhi.

For a moment, it was as if the air in the entire restaurant had frozen, and the atmosphere immediately plummeted to freezing point.

A cold smile appeared on Sakaki's face, his gaze turning slightly cold as he spoke to Xia Zhi.

What if I absolutely must order it?

Behind Xia Zhi, the Scyther's eyes narrowed.

It casually tilted the two enormous scythes in its hands. The scythes, which had just easily sliced ​​open the giant crab, gleamed coldly under the light, and a chilling intent appeared on the predator's face.

Sensing the change in atmosphere, Beedrill also withdrew from its diner mode.

It stared intently at the Scyther, a bright, eerie blue light emanating from the stingers on its hands and tail. The potent venom was something even Elite Four level Pokémon couldn't withstand.

The two elves stared at each other, their eyes locked in a fierce confrontation, looking as if they were about to start a fight at any moment.

Despite being slightly outmatched in terms of momentum when facing Beedrill, a Champion-level monster, Scyther showed no signs of weakness.

"If the customer insists on ordering..."

Summer Solstice slowed down its voice.

A few drops of cold sweat trickled down the back of the bird. She reached out and gently gripped the Poké Ball hidden in her skirt, preparing for battle.

Xia Zhi shouted sharply, speaking with unwavering resolve.

“That’ll cost extra!”

True Bird: ...

Sakaki:......

The two looked at Xia Zhi in silence.

They almost came to blows, and this is what you're saying?

Beedrill and Scyther stumbled, nearly straining their backs, and were both dumbfounded.

Xia Zhi continued.

"Don't even mention Charmander, I can cook Dragonite dishes too, it's just that the taste isn't as refined as these well-established dishes. Besides, even the worst starter Pokémon are worth millions, and many people can't even get their hands on one. Even the richest person wouldn't be so extravagant as to eat starter Pokémon."

It's not that I'm reluctant to part with it, it's just that it's not worth it.

With that money, wouldn't it be better to eat a few more fragrant, juicy green onion ducks?

Scallions paired with scallion duck, the taste is absolutely amazing!

Thinking of this, Sakaki couldn't help but nod.

Pokémon like Krabby, Farfetch'd, and Tauros are relatively weak and cheap, so you can just eat them without worry.

If he really wanted to eat Charmander or Squirtle, he might as well use the food to reward his subordinates who had done a good job.

No one's spirit comes from the wind!

Just then, Sakaki's phone rang.

His spirit was sent.

Giovanni used this as an excuse to back down, and without saying anything more, he asked Mako to get the Poké Ball.

Xia Zhi left Sakaki to his own devices and returned to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Next, he will cook stir-fried duck with scallions and a beef feast, which is expected to take two and a half hours.

Xia Zhi caught a duck that had already been gutted and processed, and with a snap, chopped off its neck, head, and tail.

I put all the duck heads and necks in the refrigerator during the summer solstice. When I have three, I can braise them.

He chopped up the duck's butt, ground it into powder, and added it to the energy cubes he made, which enhanced the flavor of the energy cubes.

On the summer solstice, the first thing to do is to cut the tender ginger and the scallions that come with the scallion duck into sections and slices, and set them aside for preparation.

Then, the mantis swiftly cut the duck into bite-sized pieces, placed them on a plate, and marinated them with cooking wine.

Farfetch'd meat is succulent and tender. Most importantly, as an elf, its flesh is imbued with a special ability that only elves can master, making it far superior to even the finest ordinary ducks.

On the summer solstice, marinate the duck, which had been tragically chopped up, with cooking wine for an hour to allow it to fully absorb the flavor.

Putting the ducks aside, Xia Zhi began to prepare the Kentauro.

Compared to regular beef cattle, Tauros is, after all, a Pokémon; it just looks like a cow but doesn't have as much meat.

A whole Tauros only weighs around 90 kilograms, not to mention that the Tauros obtained on the summer solstice had already been skinned and bled.

Looking at the mostly-half-sized Tauros, and considering Giovanni's identity, Xia Zhi understood.

Could this Pokémon Market be owned by Giovanni?

Or at least have a certain number of shares.

So the market owner didn't give away over 100,000 yuan worth of meat because of his own reputation, but because Sakagi has a lot of influence!

Bah, profiteer!

Scyther watched as Tauros was lifted onto the large cutting board, its movements fluid and practiced, showing its familiarity with the task.
