Capítulo 247: Mango crepe cake

"Filet mignon with a side order of onion rings. Less salt and more pepper, please."

The server keyed in the order in the iPad while kept asking follow up questions, "How would you like it to be cooked?"

"Medium well-done, thank you."

"I will have prime ribs with a side of garlic bone marrow. Medium rare for me, thank you."

The server repeated their order before he walked away briskly.

'Sorry, I forgot my phone was still in silent mode after a meeting. I just picked up Martin from the airport; we are having dinner now. I will be home before nine.'
