The Other World Dining Hall

Tianjin rice

The third floor of the cat and building is also built to accommodate the shopkeeper's home.

Once upon a time... when my ancestors were alive, there were still other houses, but it was troublesome to go home after taking over the shop, so I left the shop as it was.

The bedroom for sleeping and the room that Aletta is staying in, which was in the storage.

Little kitchen, toilet for a try.I use the shower room at the store for the bath.

It is a place where you sleep overnight when it is troublesome to originally return, but it is not so much a problem for shopkeepers who do not have hobbies other than cooking.

And it starts on Sunday.It was the only holiday in a week when I didn't open a store.

The owner decided to clean the room after sending Aletta back for breakfast that Sunday.

I haven't cleaned or cleaned up for a while.

The room where Aletta was staying after her niece pointed it out was where her parents and her dorm room used to be.

I handed it over, so I had to prepare another room.

The shopkeeper chose a new bedroom for himself, a room his predecessors used instead of a study.

Old books that got yellow with sunburn, and then a young grandmother and two children... in other words, a few pictures of the owner's parents.

It felt like I was somehow making a mistake, and after my ancestors died, it was a storage room that kept things properly.

I cleaned up the dusty ones.

... that's how I found it while I was cleaning.

"... why is this happening?"

The owner leans his neck when he finds a can he doesn't remember buying.

Golden cans wrapped with paper labels in large cans.

Perhaps it is expensive, that is, it is not like buying at the store, it is a little too much to eat alone, and it is too little to serve at the store.

That's why I probably didn't buy it myself.

"Wow... crab?"

Look at the can label and see what it is.

It was a can of ingredients rarely used in the store.It is also quite luxurious.

If served, would you like something more expensive than cats?

"I'm sure... that's the one Leonheart's master gave me."

Think about those tips for a while.

I did get a lot from you about two years ago, whether it was at midway house or at the end of the year, and it was given to me because I was told it was a snack.

Afterwards, I thought about eating it and I probably forgot about it.

The more I looked at it with that in mind, the date of manufacture was two years ago.

"... you should eat it early."

The expiration date stated in the cans was approaching in the past two years.

Now, thinking about how to eat it best... the shopkeeper comes to a conclusion.

Next Saturday's payoff, huh?

The faces of the two people who work in the store are overwhelming.If the main ingredient of the menu is crab....

Tianjin rice, huh?

One of the specialty dishes of the restaurant that I once practiced opens my head and opens my mouth accidentally.

So I decided to pay next Saturday.

The next Saturday.

After the 9pm closing time, send out the last guest and clean up, it will be free time until you can cover it.

Saki and Aletta are having a little chat while the shopkeeper is making up for them.

"I'm sorry, you've been busy today."

Listening to the sound of the restaurant owner cooking in the background, I first interacted with the words.

In the last few months, I've been able to figure out a lot about Aletta.We have no respect for each other.

"You're boring me. It's been a really tough day."

I have worked in this different world cafeteria for the past few years.As always, I'm busy every Saturday.

There is still plenty of room in the morning immediately after opening the shop, but for a wide variety of customers who come at noon, mainly for tea and sweets.

As the evening draws closer, guests who have finished their day's work ask for food with alcohol and enjoy alcohol and rice at night.

Until the end of the day, when the guests come home with a whole pan of beef stew in their arms, the time to relax is about a break.

That's why the sense of emancipation after all this work is a precious time to mix accomplishment and tiredness and relax.

"I'm not so busy except for lunch on weekdays, but Saturdays feel really different."

"Oh, really?"

So Aletta shouted in surprise at the leaked words of Hayashi.

I know that Hedgets refers to a day other than the day when the Different World Restaurant does not do it, the day after Doyo and the holidays the following day.

There are lots of things in the dressing room that are exactly the same as the luggage Aletta rents.

I also know that people from other worlds work here.

However, even though I can say that I know Aletta, there are a few strangers, including the store owner.

I don't know exactly what happens to Hedgets... but Aletta doesn't know.

"Well, on weekdays, the number of people in the kitchen and the hall is different, and I don't cook so much... well, there's a lot of people coming at lunch."

"... is it better than Doyo's day?"

Aletta answered in surprise, recalling how the Different Worlds cafeteria was at lunch.

Wonderful... it'll be enough to fill all the shop chairs.

"Yeah, I'm with a local company salesman, so there's really a lot of lunch coming.

Could you please have a seat, and still wait a little bit?

I don't give lectures during the day of the week, but it's still tough. "

"Yes, it is."

It is truly amazing to hear from Hayashi, who is the same stranger as the store owner and usually lives in the "outside world".

I really know a lot of things and I think I envy what I'm seeing.

"... when I think about it, my uncle is really amazing.I've been on my own since Saturday. "

While I was talking about it, I talked to the store owner.

Recently, it has been left to Saki to handle simple things such as the bottom processing, but the store owner does all the finishing.

The trick is vivid... hurry up.

"Yeah, I really think the master is amazing."

Aletta knew that cooking was literally amateur.

You have to be an amazing person to be able to enjoy cooking more than just simmering, grilling or cutting.

That's why every meal is delicious...

"I wonder what happens today....."

"I'm using a Chinese pan, and you said you were expecting dinner because you found a crab can with expensive stuff in the morning.

So I wonder if it's a ball or something. "

Unexpectedly, Saki answered as she looked at the owner of the restaurant who was cooking with gashagasha and nose song to Aletta's murmur.

"Speaking of which... I don't really understand crabs or crabs."

"Ah, I don't know what crabs are... they have big scissors, are they sea creatures, like shrimp relatives in stores? Something like that.

So the cans are the ones that put food in metal cans and didn't rot. "

Speaking of which, since Aletta is from a different world, I will explain to you while recalling that she is not very familiar with this one.

Unfortunately, with a vague and suspicious explanation, I don't know if it is conveyed.

(It is difficult to explain because the way of thinking is completely different.)

It seems that Aletta has never seen the sea, and as far as I can tell, things are different.

Rather than going to school, it seems that there was no school for children like Aletta in the first place.

So it's quite difficult to try to explain something that isn't in her knowledge.

Because I am not familiar with so many things as Saki herself can teach.

"Really? Crab is the same sea creature as shrimp, and the sea turtle is a preserved food... thank you for telling me."

That's why I feel itchy when I say thank you while I'm groaning.

I don't know much about Saki herself in the first place.

From the various experiences I have eaten, I can teach recommended dishes to customers from different worlds, but there are many other things that are fuzzy when it comes to knowledge.

(I have to study.)

When you think about the importance of knowledge in this place, the store owner calls.

"I got it covered. Get in your seats."

The two interrupted the conversation and quickly arrived at their seats.

It spreads gently on a large white plate, white, red, green and black everywhere.

A yellow mountain with a mix of shades.That was today's payment.

"Is this... Omelette rice?"

From the appearance of the dish, Aletta comes up with a similar dish.

The one with the lizard face... according to Sarah, the other employer, a monster named Lizardman, is a favorite dish to eat.

From what we talked about earlier with Saki, it's probably a dish made with crab.

Somewhat similar, but a little different.

With that said, the owner holding the small pot sprinkles the sauce made in the pot as the final finish.

A slightly red, mellow sauce wraps yellow eggs.

The smell of fluffy and unusual dishes is drifting and my stomach feels cumbersome.

"It's Tianjin rice. It's been a long time, but it's delicious."

The owner says that he will miss the name of one of the popular dishes in the shop where he used to work a little.

"Oh, Tianjin rice... I haven't eaten much, so I look forward to it."

Hayashi also spilled a smile at the food in front of her.

Then there were the three of them.

"" "I'll take it." "

The three of us started eating together in a voice.

Aletta holds a large white ceramic spoon, not the usual silver spoon, and looks at the food in front of her.

(Looks like Omelette Rice after all)

I've been working here for years.I brought a variety of dishes to the guests, and I ate them as a cover.

From that experience, I think the food in front of me is rice with eggs.

However, the ketchup used to taste omelette was not so clear and the color was brighter red.

(I wonder what it tastes like)

After seeing Tianjin rice for now, Aletta sinks a spoon into a yellow egg.

Outside, soft eggs that are baked to a degree that does not completely solidify are torn apart by sinking a spoon, and eggs that do not completely solidify and cut are raised up.

I carry it to my mouth in a thick sauce... and eat it.

(Ah, there's a lot of stuff in here)

With that sip, Aletta noticed the difference between Omelette and Tenshinhan.

The eggs are mixed with all sorts of things.

A mushroom with a plump texture and a shaky vertical fine carved bamboo shoot.

The slippery onions give the eggs a strong flavor.

A sauce with a fairly softer flavor than the sauce normally used in cats and vegetables, showy flavors, a little pepper spiciness, and a sweet and sour flavor, goes well with light flavored eggs.

And....

(It's kind of sweet...?)

A soft, sweet meat flavor that exudes a refreshing presence in the egg.

Aletta had never eaten it.

Not meat, not fish, not shripe, of course.

It's so soft and delicious that every time you chew it, it's delicious and loosens up.

(Ah, I see...)

"Yeah... I feel like I haven't eaten crabs in a long time."

Hayashi, who was eating the same next door, leaked his thoughts.

"Me too. Yeah, I did good."

The owner also nodded satisfactorily while eating his own Tenshinhan.

While looking at the two of them, Aletta proceeded further with the spoon.
