A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World (WN)
Chapter 1622: Roasting The Windows To The Pigs SoulChapter 1622: Roasting The Windows To The Pig’s Soul
The preview to the roasted pig’s eyes brought quite a lot of discussion to the customers lining up at Mamy Restaurant. They even started debating whether the pig’s eyes should be skewered and grilled, or just put on a thin net mesh.
However, despite all the discussion, the shocking name of the dish caused most of them to be unwilling to give the dish a try.
Of course, most people were interested in who would order this dish.
Whoever dared to be the first brave soul would definitely be the center of attention.
“Father, why aren’t we having roasted pig’s eyes for dinner?” Amy asked with bewilderment as she looked at the table full of food.
“Because we’re the only ones who want to eat it. If I put it on the table, it might affect the others’ appetite. So I’ll make one for you after we start our business, alright?” Mag said with a smile. Amy was probably the only one who would unconditionally believe that whatever he made was delicious and be interested in it.
“Alright.” Amy nodded happily. She stuck out two fingers, and said, “I want two.”
“Alright. Two.” Mag nodded with a smile, and put some red braised pork in her bowl.
“Thank you.” Amy took a bite off the meat and chewed happily. After that, she ate a big mouthful of rice, making her cheeks puff out adorably.
What a scene of a loving father and daughter. Angela watched enviously as she ate. Come to think of it, she had not eaten at the same table with so many people she knew in a very long time. It was a very strange feeling.

“Yes?” Irina asked with a smile as she looked up and into Angela’s eyes.
“N-nothing.” Angela’s face flushed. She lowered her head and quickly ate some rice. Even her ears had turned red.
“I heard the customers conversing outside. It seemed that they were a little afraid of pig’s eyes. I wonder if anyone would order it.” Miya was a little worried. Although she had unconditional trust in Mag, roasted pig’s eyes were really a little too gory for her. She wondered how many customers would dare to order and try it after seeing the dish’s name.
“Why don’t you give it a better name?” Irina put her spoon down, and suggested to Mag, “For example, bloody eyes, or devil’s gaze.”
“Are those names… any better?” Mag rolled his eyes. What kind of dish-naming appreciation was that?
“Exploding eyeballs?” Amy suggested as she raised her hands.
“Er…” Mag pondered.
“Roasted windows to the pig’s soul,” Anna suggested.
“That’s a gentle name.” Mag gave Anna a thumbs-up.
The first meal together with Angela ended in a warm atmosphere.
“Welcome to Mamy Restaurant.” Mag opened the door, and welcomed the customers with a smile.
Angela stood in a corner, and watched the customers enter the restaurant.
Although she had been a very part-time service staff member on Carapace Island for two days, she was still rather nervous and excited while standing here. This new job might not be a goal in her life, but it marked a good start at Chaos City.
“You don’t have to do anything today. Just get to know the restaurant’s operation from the employees’ point of view,” Mag said with a smile to Angela as he passed by on his way to the kitchen.
“Mm-hmm.” Angela nodded. She turned around, and went to stand behind the counter.
“Big Sister Angela, don’t be nervous. You’ll be even more nervous when you have to do it on your own,” Amy said with a smile with her head propped up on Ugly Duckling’s head.
“Mm-hmm…” Angela nodded. She found it hard to accept such encouragement.
“Let’s sit here.” Vanessa sat at the last table close to the kitchen. From the seat, they could see what was going on in the kitchen through the glass window.
“Aren’t there any private rooms?” Sean looked around. There was only this hall in the restaurant. Although there were wooden fences around to roughly separate the tables, they couldn’t block off all sights and sounds.
He felt a little uncomfortable dining with a group of completely unknown people including orcs and demons.
“There’s no need for private rooms in Mamy Restaurant. Everyone even shares the tables.” Vanessa shook her head with a smile. She picked up the menu on the table quickly, and flipped it open. Indeed, under the kebab, there was a new dish: roasted pig’s eyes—300 copper coins/skewer.
What a pity that there wasn’t a picture of the roasted pig’s eyes.
However, that might be a good thing too. If she had seen pig’s eyes staring back at her the moment she opened the menu, she would probably have lost all her appetite.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“This new dish is something to look forward to. I wonder which brave soul would step forward to give it a try,” Abraham said with a smile expectantly.
“I think that the brave soul is right in front of you.” Vanessa flipped the menu around and pushed it to Sean, who was sitting right in front of her. With a grin, she said, “Brother Sean, I’ll order a set of roasted pig’s eyes for you. You’ll have to try something different now that you’re in Chaos City.”
“I… I’m not keen to try that,” Sean said with a strange expression. Even he was unable to accept roasted pig’s eyes despite being able to hit the pig’s eyes with a bow and arrow.
“That won’t do. You just promised that you would listen to my requests today.” Vanessa shook her head with a pout. She reached her fair fingers out, and pointed at the roasted pig’s eyes on the menu as she said, “My request is very simple. It’s for you to have a skewer of roasted pig’s eyes.”
“I…” Sean opened his mouth. He felt as though he had fallen into this little kitten’s trap. To think she would actually use such a method to take revenge on him.
“I heard him. I can vouch for you.” Abraham raised his hand as he watched the show.
Sean looked at the expectant Vanessa and the smiling Abraham, and nodded helplessly as he said, “Alright.”
“Hehe. I knew it, my Brother Sean is the best,” Vanessa exclaimed with joy.
The other customers ordered their food subsequently. However, they seemed to have reached a consensus to avoid the roasted pig’s eyes. They were all waiting for that one brave soul to be the first one to give it a try.
Therefore, when Yabemiya came to Vanessa’s table, there were still no orders for roasted pig’s eyes.
“May I have your order?” Yabemiya asked with a smile.
“Big Sister Miya, we would like to have a set of roasted pig’s eyes,” Vanessa said quickly.
“Roasted pig’s eyes?” Yabemiya looked at Vanessa in shock.
The other customers also looked over curiously to see which brave soul ordered the roasted pig’s eyes and took the major step out of the culinary world.
