章節 33: Cuisine from Another World
After Lumi finished singing, Eldric took a step forward to the center of the hall. He stood tall with a warm smile, gazing at the guests who were still enveloped in a joyful atmosphere. "Thank you all for your attention and companionship tonight. Music is a language that unites us, and I hope what you've heard and felt today will become a beautiful memory you'll take home with you."
The guests clapped once more, this time more gently, filled with appreciation and gratitude. Eldric continued in a calm but clear voice, "However, the magic of this evening has not ended. We have prepared dishes that we hope will bring you closer to the flavors of different worlds. Enjoy!"
The guests greeted this with enthusiasm, and the sound of light footsteps began to echo from the side of the hall. Several large doors slowly opened, and in came the chefs, followed by a line of waiters carrying the dishes. The aroma of food began to fill the air, tempting the guests, who had been mesmerized by the performance, now lured by the tantalizing scents.
From the kitchen's perspective, all of this had been carefully planned. One of the head chefs, Pierre, stood near the large kitchen table, ensuring that all the dishes came out perfectly. He looked into the hall with a mixture of pride and nervousness.
"This recipe... this is something we've never made before," Pierre thought, recalling the long discussion with Mr. Eldric about the dishes they would serve. Mr. Eldric, with his unique enthusiasm, had introduced a completely foreign concept of food.
Pierre watched as one of the waiters lifted a tray full of sushi. The white rice rolls wrapped in fresh fish and garnished with small pieces of seaweed were new to him, but he had to admit that the appearance and aroma of the sushi were captivating. "How can something so simple look so elegant?" he murmured quietly.
At another table, the pastry team was checking on the chocolate mousse. The small glasses filled with soft chocolate cream looked like masterpieces. The top layer was decorated with chocolate shavings and a light dusting of powdered sugar. Pierre felt slightly relieved to see that the mousse had turned out perfectly, considering how difficult it was to achieve the right consistency according to Mr. Eldric's instructions.
Then there were the mini quiches, small round pastries filled with a mixture of eggs, cheese, and various vegetables. This dish was closer to the local tradition, but the way Mr. Eldric had explained the use of spices and the presentation added a new touch that impressed Pierre.
"Mr. Eldric, with his recipes, has really brought a whole new world into this kitchen," Pierre thought, making sure the waiters carried the food carefully. As the dishes started to be served, Pierre couldn't help but feel curious. "Will the guests like these flavors they've never tasted before?"
In the hall, the guests began to try the dishes. Sushi became the main attraction; many guests looked at it with hesitation, but after tasting it, their eyes lit up. "This... it's so fresh and different! It tastes like the sea, but with a pleasant softness," one guest commented as they took a second piece.
On the other hand, the chocolate mousse stole the attention of those with a sweet tooth. The children immediately liked its soft texture and rich chocolate flavor. The adult guests praised how the dessert perfectly balanced the sweet and bitter tastes. "It's like a gentle embrace at the end of the night," commented an elderly woman with a smile.
Meanwhile, the mini quiches received a warm welcome from those who preferred light yet savory food. The melted cheese inside the crispy pastry shell brought a familiar warmth, but with a modern twist they had never experienced before.
Pierre observed all of this from the kitchen door. There was a great sense of relief as he saw the smiles on the guests' faces, heard their compliments, and realized that the night had been a tremendous success.
In the corner of the hall, Eldric sampled sushi with Myra, who laughed softly as she watched Lumi try to stuff too much mousse into her mouth. The atmosphere of the hall slowly transformed into casual conversation and light laughter, showing that the food had become a link that complemented the beauty of the music from earlier.
Pierre, who usually stayed hidden in the kitchen, felt proud that night. He turned to his colleagues and spoke with confidence, "We've made history tonight. This is not just food; it's a bridge between tradition and innovation. And I'm sure, this is just the beginning. With Mr. Eldric's recipes as our reference, let's create food innovations together."
The chefs smiled, feeling like part of something bigger than just cooking. They knew that tonight, they had helped their master bring the world into a new era, where flavors and creativity merged to create an unforgettable experience.
