Infinite Cafetaria

Chapter 262 Bacon and Eggplant Stew

Although Malu cleared up the misunderstanding among Yunque and others through explanations, the four witches were still in no mood to go out for dinner.

 After completing the baptism and eliminating the sin points, he returned to the witch's house.

 And there was nothing going on on Malu's side. He didn't even need to report on his duties. All relevant details about this operation would be reported to the church by Li Wei himself.

Furthermore, Li Wei also promised Malu that once the church confirmed the death of Shrike, a large reward would be given in addition to the position of master.

 This is the benefit of having someone above you.

Seeing that there were still three hours left on the countdown on the traveler's bracelet, Malu didn't want to go back to the apartment to sleep so early, so he simply walked around the city for a while.

When he first looked down from the sky, Malu’s impression of this place was one of solemnity and neatness.

This feeling is even stronger when walking in the city now. There is almost no garbage on the ground. No matter where you go, it is spotless and everyone you meet is polite.

However, after walking around Malu for a while, I felt that it was a little too formal and lacked vitality.

As a result, he soon encountered a group of children about seven or eight years old, who followed him, chasing him, calling him Lord Knight, and asking for his autograph.

Ma Lu did not sign autographs for them, but he also grabbed a few children and put them on his shoulders and took them for a walk on the street for a while. He made them scream again and again, and kept touching the armor underneath them.

 Shouting words such as "Great, great!" "I will also be a knight in the future and protect everyone!"

In return for the test ride, they also told Malu some interesting information, including but not limited to cheap and high-quality restaurants in the city, interesting attractions, and even dark bars.

 The Church of Order does not allow believers to drink alcohol, because they believe that alcohol will make people lose their minds and become disordered, but even so, some people still cannot resist the wonderful taste of those golden liquids.

 So some people secretly brewed wine, and there were also small groups who drank together in different places from time to time.

Ma Lu was quite interested in the mobile black bar, but unfortunately he couldn't get in even if he could find a place in his outfit. The boss probably closed it before he even got to the door.

So in the end, he just picked two scenic spots to visit, and then found a restaurant to taste the local food, which could be regarded as finding some inspiration for his own restaurant.

It’s a pity that even the most famous restaurant in the city has a big gap between the dishes prepared by Lao Wang.

Especially because the church has explicitly banned the consumption of activated plants, the chefs here cannot use the special ingredients of this plane to entertain diners. It feels like they are tying their own hands, which is really regrettable.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Ma Lu returned to the apartment on the suspended train, ending his trip to another dimension.

 The first thing he did after coming back was to visit the Tabletop Farm.

The last time we held a BBQ party, Milu used up a lot of ingredients, causing the meat content in it to drop sharply to 2,800 kilograms. Fortunately, it did not affect subsequent breeding.

 There is also the bonus of the herding frog. Five days later, not only did all the previously used food grow back, but it also gained 600 kilograms more. The total weight of meat has reached 4,600 kilograms.

Furthermore, at the BBQ party, Malu mostly used ingredients such as Link the Hedgehog and the Self-destructing Jerboa that were not convenient for ordinary people to cook. He also took this opportunity to adjust the proportion of ingredients on the farm.

 Restore them to a healthy level.

In addition, with the increase in the number of black breast chickens on the farm, Malu can now harvest eggs, about 40 a day.

In addition, he also brought back 4 honey lizards last week. They have also begun to lay eggs. Milu has produced some honey lizard eggs.

 This kind of thing can be used instead of syrup. However, because the quantity was relatively small, he did not intend to sell it in restaurants, so he found a small box and put it in the refrigerator of the rental house, and put a little in it when drinking drinks or beer.

It tastes pretty good.

The activated plants he brought back before are also growing on the farm. Speaking of which, this is the first time that Malu has seen activated plants multiply.

Different from those animals on the farm, they do not need to mate, and some can even split into a new individual by themselves.

 Some will bloom, pollinate, fertilize, and finally bear fruit like ordinary plants.

 And their fruits do not need to take root and sprout as soon as they fall to the ground, they can grow on their own.

Ma Lu observed them for several days, but could not figure out where these activated plants got their nutrients.

  Anyway, they retain some of the characteristics of plants and can walk around like animals, which is very magical.

 At present, the number of activated plants on the farm is relatively small compared to the animals, and their total weight is less than 1,400 kilograms.

But fortunately, Malu has been exploring new areas recently, constantly collecting activated plants to enrich them, and he also has a lot of inventory on hand. In addition, the previous BBQ mainly consumed meat, so there is not much shortage of vegetables.

 In addition, Lao Wang was not idle during this period. In addition to cooking in the restaurant as usual, he also took time to make some bacon and ham. The ham will not be available for consumption for at least a month.

 But the bacon jerky is almost gone for a week.

So Malu also thought about what to make the restaurant’s signature dish this week.

 —Bacon meat and eggplant stew.

Using purple eggplant, a 5-star ingredient that never gets tired, as the main ingredient, and paired with Lao Wang’s secret bacon jerky, this dish’s gourmet index is as high as ★★★★★.

As the boss, Malu tasted a bowl first, served it with rice, and even licked the plate clean.

Purple eggplant itself is tender and soft, and absorbs juice very easily. Compared with fresh meat, bacon jerky has a better flavor. This flavor can penetrate into the eggplant along with the vegetable juice when it is cooked.

 The combination of the two is like golden wind and jade dew, they couldn’t be more perfect.

 The other meat dish Malu chooses is hunter’s chicken.

This dish is considered a specialty of Jumu. The first time Malu ate it, he felt quite amazed. It happened that the recipe given by Lao Wang also had a corresponding recipe, so he copied it.

The last dish is still soup, called healthy mushroom soup, using the mushrooms that were not used last week.

 It may take a little longer, but fortunately, when Malu is not going out, he will put some perishable ingredients into the collection bag, and use the latter's freshness preservation function to achieve a magical effect similar to time-stopping.

Hence, the Universe Infinite Canteen has not wasted any ingredients so far.

Ma Lu finished writing the menu and opened the restaurant on time. Soon, a group of familiar faces came in from outside.

Most of them are regular diners, and they know Malu's habit of changing the menu every week, so as soon as he serves new dishes, they rush over to try them out.
