Chapter 1035 - Isn"t This Cheating?

Fabian and Eugene had not recovered from the astonishment due to the fact that Mamy Restaurant dominated the six rankings, so when they saw the signboard and the two long lines at the door, they were even more shocked.

“Maybe?”

It was also the first time Fabian saw such a scene, so he was uncertain.

“Big Brother, do you think that ranking is real? Is this restaurant really so impressive to be first in everything in the world?” Eugene asked softly.

“I don’t know that, either, but it definitely wouldn’t dare to do this if it wasn’t capable.” Fabian shook his head with a serious expression.

This time, they put their family roast chicken recipe passed down through the generations and their dignity as chefs on the line to challenge Mag. If they lost, they would be at a loss for what to do since they had just gained a foothold in Chaos City.

“Don’t worry, we might not be able to defeat him in making other dishes, but if it’s roast chicken, we definitely have nothing to be afraid of. All these years, we have put in our all in doing only one thing, so no one can do it better than us,” Fabian said with a smile as he patted Eugene’s shoulder.

Eugene gained some confidence. Nodding, he said, “Yes! We definitely won’t lose to him. We are going to challenge him right now!”

“Let’s look for him after he’s done for the day. There are so many customers lining up right now, so he will definitely be busy. We should still have the basic courtesy,” Fabian said with a smile as he held Eugene, who was walking towards the entrance of Mamy Restaurant, back.

“Alright.” Eugene nodded.

…

The people lining up in front of Mamy Restaurant today were more than twice the usual number, making the entrance of Mamy Restaurant look very lively. Most of them came because of the rankings.

Among them were those who mistrusted the Delicious Cuisine Rankings—chowhounds who came specially with ill intentions to tarnish the reputation of the restaurant.

The regulars of Mamy Restaurant would naturally feel proud now that the restaurant had dominated the rankings, so they were all discussing this excitedly.

Meanwhile, those who had ill intentions and came to stir up trouble would definitely not give up such a chance where there were so many people. They started to say things like “Mamy Restaurant bought the ranks” and other sarcastic comments in an attempt to incite anger in the people.

At this time, the sweet and savory factions who would usually argue about which was better stood together on the same side, and used their well-trained rhetoric skills to give those who came looking for trouble a lash, displaying a scarily strong teamwork.

After that, Mag put the enlarged menu at the entrance of the restaurant again. Just a snack cost 200-300 copper coins, and the price of a serving of grilled fish cost a whopping 2500 copper coins. All of a sudden, the customers who came to watch the show all fled.

“This owner is so vicious. Just a snack would cost enough for five to six of our roast chickens. Isn’t he plainly trying to cheat the customers’ money?” Eugene criticized when he saw the menu.

“You can’t really say that. Look, those customers are still here after seeing the menu, and aren’t even shocked. They should be the regulars of this restaurant. This owner has to be pretty impressive in order to attract so many regulars,” Fabian said as he looked at the line that shortened by a third.

“There might be some picky customers and some who came with ill intentions today. Let’s just do the same as usual. There’s no need to cater to them specially. If something unhappy happens, settle it quickly and don’t let people use it against you or the restaurant,” Mag said with a smile to the rest who had just finished their lunch.

“Father, it’s alright. If anyone dares not to pay, I will beat them to death!” Amy said as she clenched her little fist.

“You’re a lady, you should speak in a more refined manner.” Mag stroked Amy’s head with a smile.

“Then how should I say it?” Amy was puzzled.

“Send them to heaven,” Mag replied with a smile.

“Alright.” Amy nodded. Although she had no idea what sending them to heaven had anything to do with beating them to death, since her father said so, she would say that for a change.

I hate deception the most. I can’t believe that even the Delicious Cuisine Rankings would forge their results. Even my favorite roast pig ended up in the fourth place! This Mamy Restaurant is just rubbish. How can red braised pork get the first place? What a joke! Don, who was standing in the line, stared at the signboard angrily. He did not argue with the others, and kept mum as he boiled with anger.

He would order a red braised pork later when he went in and try it for himself so he would have a reason to support his argument. He had to take revenge for the roast pig that he believed in for a decade!

No matter what others said, he would not believe that there could be a meat dish that tasted better than roast pig in this world.

There were several customers who came with similar motives. Usually, no one would give their all to argue with another person because of a ranking, but there were many who still could not accept it, and insisted on coming personally to judge for themselves.

“Welcome! Please come in!”

Just then, the doors of the restaurant opened up from the inside. The restaurant had officially started its operation.

“Give me a red braised pork,” Don told Yabemiya straight away without even flipping through the menu on the table.

“Alright, please wait for a while.” Yabemiya nodded. She could not help but take another glance at this angry customer, and wondered how many of these indignant customers would be here today.

“Give me a braised chicken soup,” Bolton also ordered straight away after sitting down. He could not accept the fact that the freshwater seafood soup from Sith Restaurant would be ranked below the braised chicken soup, so he also came to check if this chicken soup was worthy of the top place in the soup rankings.

“I’m sorry, Sir, we don’t have braised chicken soup here, only braised chicken and rice,” Miya said while shaking her head.

“No chicken soup? Then why would the first place of the soup rankings be the braised chicken soup from your restaurant? Isn’t this cheating?” Bolton said with a frown. He was even more certain that there was a problem with the rankings now.

“Bro, the braised chicken soup here is superb. It really deserves to be the top of the soup rankings. It’s just that Boss Mag doesn’t sell it a la carte,” Harrison, who was sitting opposite him, said with a smile.

Bolton flipped open the menu in front of him to take a look. Indeed, there was only braised chicken and rice on it, and not braised chicken soup. He also realized that he was a little too agitated just now. He closed the menu and told Yabemiya, “Then give me the braised chicken and rice.”

“Sure, please wait for a moment.” Miya nodded and left.

…

“Your red braised pork.” Miya very quickly served the red braised pork to Don.
