"So, this is Sea Bream over Rice. It's luxurious to have the whole fish in it."
"We don't usually go this far. Normally, we just use fish fillets. It's easier without the hassle of removing the head and tail. Cooking the whole fish like this is just to make it look fancy, though."
"No, this is truly luxurious. And this aroma. May I indulge now?"
"Yes, please. It's hot, so please bareful."
With those words, the three begin to dig into the dish.
Initially, they tasted small portions, but soon they started eating larger amounts without reservation.
If they're satisfied with the taste, then it's a success.
"... Well, that was delicious. I didn't expect to be so satisfied with just rice."
"Indeed, it uses rice, but if it's done like this, it could even be a main dish at the restaurant. If you serve a side soup, it would be perfect."
"Ah, originally, you mix fish fillets with rice and cook them together. Then you use the bones and head to make the soup. It's really efficient."
"We don't cut corners on the cost of ingredients. Since we can't cut labor costs, the approach at the Spiderling’s Nest is to not waste any parts of the ingredients.”
"I understand. So, will you continue hiring orphans in the future?"
"Rather, it would be troublesome if the orphans were gone. They handle both the cooking and serving tasks quite well."
"... Is it also for their future?"
"Yes. In reality, among the cooking staff, there are orphans who need to leave next year when they come of age. If we lose them, the restaurant won't function, so we'll continue employing them. Of course, if they want to work in other establishments, we'll prioritize that."
"Allowing them to gain experience for the future through serving and cooking. Isn't it too big of an endeavor for an individual to undertake?"
"Well, it does feel that way."
"Alright. I can't just stop you at this point. I'll invest as well. I hope you and the staff at the restaurant will continue to work hard in the future."
"Yes. We'll do our best."
Yes, today's presentation was a success.
Since we have orphans working, we need to keep the Marquis's face, who runs the orphanage, in mind.
However, the Marquis can't get involved with something unknown.
Therefore, I decided to present the cooking in front of the Marquis, securing the investment.
We've got fish now, and it seems like the repertoire will expand in the future.
"... By the way, may I have more of this dish? Along with that clear broth soup?”
"Yes. Please help yourself with the prepared portions. We brought plenty of ingredients, so we can make a new one if necessary."
"I apologize. I can't resist this aroma."
... It seems like they were quite pleased.
In the background, the head chef of the Marquis's mansion was extracting cooking methods from Mr. Brad.
At this rate, the Marquis might secretly come to eat at the restaurant.
I might periodically share the restaurant's recipes with him as a thank-you for his investment.
