The Coffee Shop in a Different World Station

18 Cuisine of Strong Negotiators and Bridges (2/3)

"Yeah, here's how it goes first..."

Natl cuts the pato into small pieces with a knife, puts it on top of the fork and transports it to his mouth. That's the way I learned to eat before I came to The Swarm. Takumi, who had taken a serious look at the condition, had a rare and surprising look.

"I see, is that how you eat a pato"

"Yeah, yeah. But isn't this how you eat pato?

Natl, who doesn't know why Takumi is surprised, replied in questionable form.

It was roughly a pato eating way far from Takumi's common sense. But I guess this is “this world," or at least "normal" in a country with pato.

It was a total takumi accustomed to “this world” life, but it was a surprise to remind us for the first time in a long time that this was a different place from the world we once lived in.

"No, pasta that was eaten where I used to be - I was a little surprised because it was eaten differently from the dishes that were very similar to Pato's. I beg your pardon.

"Oh, shit. I just thought that I was the one who eats like this... sorry."

You got stuck with Takumi, and Natl bows his head, too. Takumi continued to ask questions while urging Natl to raise his head.

"Yes, what I just served and what I've eaten at the exposition venue, did it make any other difference?

"Yeah hey, I think the noodles were softer. Sure...... yes, it was soft enough to crush it with my tongue. Also, Takumi soothed the sauce in the frying pan, but when I received it at the exposition venue, Pato and the sauce were transported separately beside the table to finish it in front of me."

Natl answers with a hard reminder of the taste of pato fed at the exposition venue. Sabbath then also made up for the explanation.

"If I were to add one thing from me, I wonder if the red one had a separate sauce to soothe and a sauce to put on top. I wonder if the white ones had plenty of moistened cheese instead of sauce to put on."

The look on Takumi's face listening to the two of us was somehow serious. Unlike a gentle smile like when dealing with customers at the station and coffee shop, Natl felt like he was facing sincerely as a cook.

Somehow the air on the field strained - but Nyarch's energetic weather voice defeated it.

"Um, if you're so wrinkled between your eyebrows, the delicious rice won't even taste good. Eat it before it gets cold!

Nyarch that cleverly wraps around with a fork and proceeds to eat two different types of pato. The three of them, who saw them cheek happily as they soiled around their mouths, were nervous all at once, couscous and grin spilled.

"Right. Nyarch is right. Again, please, have it. Easy to eat."

Natl also honestly agreed with Takumi's words and once again got the fork and the knife.

The red sauce pato was intertwined with the fresh acidity of the tomatoes and the intense flavour of ketchup, resulting in an exquisite flavour.

On the other hand, the white sauce pato had a neat taste with the richness of eggs and cheese added to the taste of the bacon, with a crisp accent of black pepper that tightened the whole thing, and this one had a wonderful taste as well.

Both taste “Takumi Midori” and are very different from the pato I ate at the exposition venue.

The stiff boiled pato enjoyed the teeth, and as a nattle individual, I also found this one preferable to the soft pato I ate at the exposition venue.

"That's Lord Takumi, this one is very tasty here."

Sabbath, who finished eating first, tells Takumi his candid thoughts. Apparently, he had the same sentiment as Natl. Natl continues as well.

"It was really very delicious! Tell me how to make it again later."

"Yeah, I'd love to, too. Now, aside from that, how are you going to improve this..."

That's what Takumi says, put on an arm and think still.

“Pato," similar to the "pasta” Takumi knows, and the theme given this time… many elements are intertwined. It was clear that it could not be a glimmer.

Watch the three of you spit on Takumi, who keeps thinking. And after a period of silence, Takumi's mouth was opened.

"Yeah, I figured Mr. Natl would be the center of the idea here."

"Huh!? Is that me?

To Takumi's nomination, Natl raised a very strange voice of surprise. I feel so embarrassed, my face turning bright red.

"So you're saying that this theme will show 'Contribute to the friendship and development of the two countries', right? In doing so, I still think we should put the base in the dishes of this country. However, I am unfortunately not very familiar with the cuisine of this country. In that case, I think Natl, who is familiar with the food in this country, would be better placed to focus and think about it. Of course I will support you, too.

"Oh, my God, I can't believe I'm the center..."

Sabbath speaks in a slightly harsh tone to Natl who can't hide the upset

"Mr. Natl, that's not going to work. Don't you remember what Lord Sophia said when he sent Lord Natl over here in the first place? Didn't Lord Sophia make you turn to us with anticipation because he thought the power of Lord Natl was essential to move this thing forward?

To Sabbath's words, Natl remembered just before heading this way.

Before leaving, Sophia called me with the words' With the help of Mr. Takumi, come and hold on '.

I wasn't very conscious then, but Natl, having received words from Takumi and Sabbath, once again deplored the “weight” of the word. The pressure to do what if it fails hits me, and I can't contain the tremor in my legs.

At that time, Natl's back was accidentally slapped with a pong. turned around softly, Nyarch stared at Nico and this one.

"Natl will be fine. I want to eat Natl's delicious rice, too!

Know or not what's in Natl's heart, Nyarch, who, as usual, speaks in energetic weather conditions. Takumi and Sabbath also overlap words there.

"Right. I haven't had a chance to feed Mr. Natl's cooking before, and I'd love to. I was very proud of Sophia every time she came here, and you were actually looking forward to it."

"Dear Left, Lord Takumi's dishes are rare and delicious, but Lord Natl's dishes are also quite delicious."

Natl was the first to see his dishes expected and highly valued. I felt the courage come out of the three words.

"Wow, I get it. So, let me give it my best shot."

"Then make something quick!

Natl is terribly surprised again by Nyarch's words about his flavor.

But that tension is also a flash. It wasn't a sudden blur, and I couldn't stop laughing at the way Nyarch was hanging around with Takumi grabbing my back.

Natl declared this as he wiped the tears in his eyeballs.

"Then I'll make dinner for you today because it's a corner. Takumi, please tell me what ingredients you can use. Can Mr. Sabbath accompany you?

Absolutely, Sabbath responds. It was thus that the prototype of "Pato cuisine contributing to the friendship and development of both countries” by Natl and Takumi began.

―――――

Then a few days later, four people, Takumi, Nyarch, Natl and Roland, were surrounding the kitchen table in the kitchen of "Tsubame", which was closed.

Arranged on the table are three prototypes, all of which are "pato dishes that combine the traditional dishes of the region" made by Takumi and Natl with a variety of ideas.

Natl, who was responsible for cooking two of the prototypes, explains one at a time.

"At the far left, rinse with beef and aho (garlic) pato. It is sweetened and thickened by adding seboria (onions) that have been rinsed down with beef. In the middle is a pato based on stewed chicken and fudia (ingen beans) tomatoes, and in this stewed soup, the pato is added to let the flavor stain."

"So, a pato salad with Parta (avocado) on the far right plate. To the pato, which is boiled and then fevered through water, is added mayonnaise mixed with Parta, which is soothed with chopped seboria, peppino (cucumber) and sanaolia (carrot)."

Following Natl, Takumi also explains the prototype she was in charge of. Roland is listening to the two of us with a strange face.

Speaking of Nyarch on the other hand, he was rattling a tong for the batch with a look he couldn't wait to see.

"Okay, let's get him eating fast! Can we split it up now?

Yes, and Takumi tries to sign the OK, but in a flying mood Nyarch had already begun to split the pato dishes. When Natl raised his gaze, there was a takumi look that gave him a look like a man with his palms flat upwards.

Nyarch, who is happy to split all that up with no problem, quickly took it apart and handed out the prototype to everyone, said he would have it, he raised his energetic voice and started eating first.

"So shall we have it, too? I'll have it."

"Ah, ha, ha. God, thank you for gracing me with food for the day today. Please don't give us good food as we will try hard tomorrow"

Natl, prompted by Takumi, put his hands in front of his chest and offered his words of gratitude and prayer to God with a quick mouth.

Natl takes one of the small plates Nyarch handed out to me. The first thing I had was a pato salad made by Takumi.

The sourness of the mayonnaise is reduced by the luscious richness of Parta, with a flavorful finish. The shaky feel of the chopped vegetables placed inside and the coarsely ground black pepper on top are good accents.

Even the touch of Pato's teeth cooled with water was very pleasant with dust, and it drew a line from the Pato dishes he had eaten so far.

"This is delicious! It tastes simple, but it feels like I miss something! I like it!

Roland has spoken to Natl as he raises his plate. Apparently he liked the beef and aho pasta.

The stir-fried beef gave it a chunky feel, and Seboria's sledding, which well smoked the flavour of the soup taken from the beef bones, was well intertwined with the pato and doubled to the effect.

Roland raised his pity that if he emptied the small plates in no time, there would be no substitute.

"This one's delicious, too. It goes great with cheese."

Takumi was eating tomato pato with a bright red color. Tomato sauce with chicken and fudia flavors all over the corner was well stained in stewed and slightly softened pato, which also had an elegant finish.

Natl, who told Takumi it was delicious, tickles her mind a little.

But only for a moment that seemed so, Natl was drawn back to reality by the words Takumi continued to say.

"Just say if this is okay..."

"Um, normally... it is..."

Takumi and Natl interact briefly and shut up.

All three Pato dishes today had great flavors, but that's it when it comes to simply matching the dishes and ingredients of the area with Pato.

Among other things, the pato salad made by Takumi was a slightly different one, but it still could not be said to have the power to serve as the main one.

Between the two silent people, Roland comes in cracked.

"It's hard. I wish it was so delicious..."

"Of course, delicious is important. But this time the“ message ”will be stronger than usual, so delicious isn't enough."

Once again, Natl was also experiencing the difficulty of this challenge in the words of Takumi, who talks to Roland to teach him.

It's not just delicious, how to convey the message as a "symbol of friendship and development" … it's a very troubling challenge that the more we tackle, the more likely we are to enter the trail.

Heavy field air. Nyarch beats that even today.

"Huh, you're welcome! They were all so delicious! But..."

"And?

Natl asks Nyarch, worried that something had failed him. But the words continued from Nyarch were unexpected.

"Just because I try it every day, I'm tired of Pato! It's time for Arrows! Natl, I want you to make something!

The words made the three of them weak. Each prototype was in small quantities, so I may have gotten hungry instead, but it's a huge appetite nonetheless.

But I was repeating the prototype, so I'm pretty sure it was time to get tired of Pato cooking. Natl nods at Nyarch's suggestion, while seeking permission from the kitchen lord.

"Mr. Takumi, it's going to boil in your head if you keep it up, and you're sure you want to serve another dish? I remembered at Arrows that there was a dish in my hometown that was often eaten."

"Hmm, that's exciting. Please."

Natl, with Takumi's permission, gets to cook quickly. The ingredients are seboria and aho, pork, arrows, and some spices I used earlier.

As soon as Natl minces Sebolia and Aho, he minces the pork as if he wanted it with a knife. Then, after finishing the examination, he asked where the cookware was located in Takumi.

"Speaking of which, is this kitchen a good Paeja pan?

Takumi answers Natl's question with regret.

"Paeja pot? Oh, you mean that flat pot. Sorry, I didn't leave it here."

"Really...... Oh, then, can I borrow this frying pan? It makes me feel a little disobedient..."

That's how Natl chose a medium shallow frying pan. Takumi was slightly concerned about Natl's words, but still gives an OK sign that he won't make it a weird breeze.

When Natl thanked Takumi in a courtesy, he quickly proceeded to cook.

And less than half an hour later, the dish was ready.

"Please, have it. Hometown cuisine, it's Paeja. It's delicious, so peel it off and eat it. I'm a little disobedient, but when we all eat the pan together, it doubles its deliciousness."

A frying pan containing paeja is placed with Don in the center of a table with a plank of wood instead of a pan laying. Natl's expression seems to be filled with fun and confidence somewhere.

Whether the excess heat is baking the arrows, the frying pan sounds like chilli and delicious. And a fragrant good aroma containing spiciness was springing up from the frying pan.

"Nyarch will be the first to take it!

"The courtesy part looks super good! I'll have it soon!

As they compete ahead, they whisk the paeja still chilli in the frying pan with a large spoon for splitting, cheeks just can't wait.

Seeing the two smiles eating the still hot Paeja as HuffHuff, it was obvious that they were satisfied with its deliciousness.

Natl, horrified at how they fit their mouths, also takes his share of paeja from the frying pan. At that time, when his gaze was concerned and he raised his face, he caught sight of Takumi staring at the frying pan still as he thought about something.

"Ah, Takumi, I knew this kind of frying pan was not a good way to use it. So great?

Natl speaks to Takumi, worried that he had a crude phase.

But Takumi, who is arm-wrapped and completely thinking about it, didn't get back to me any time soon.

And after a while - suddenly Takumi raised her voice.

"This is it! I'm sure you'll be able to do" Pato dishes that show friendship and development "!

That said, Takumi grabs Natl's shoulder tightly. Surprised by Takumi's completely unusual attitude, Natl remained solidified without knowing what had happened to Takumi.

"Natl's in big trouble! I think I came up with something, but I'm so tired of molesting Natl!

That's what Nyarch says, he breaks in between Takumi and Natl, shows his teeth yih and intimidates Takumi.

So Takumi, who finally returned to me, gets excited, apologizes to Natl. And now calmly, I started explaining the menu I came up with from Paeja.

"That's funny! I'd like to try a prototype soon!

Takumi's explanation also raised Natl's "image of goal” for this assignment.

Natl can't be there or not, and he puts the take-up dish on the table and tries to get ready quickly.

But the move was to be controlled by Roland's slightly bitter voice.

"I'm sorry, I'm just so hungry already... And then it's time for me to go home, but I want to eat the prototype... if possible, I want it tomorrow..."

That's how Roland suppresses his totally creepy belly. The three of them laugh unexpectedly at words similar to that scream. It wasn't a laugh - the kitchen was full of Roland screams.
