The Coffee Shop in a Different World Station

"Phew, thank you for waiting. Well, Mr. Roland, I apologize for the inconvenience, but thank you."

Natl, who carried his luggage to the upstairs room, returned to the kitchen again.

Natl, dressed, is wrapped around his waist with a dark green work outfit with a large white cap and a white apron with cute frills.

It's the same style that I used to wear when I worked under Sophia.

Though a little surprised by its appearance reminiscent of traditional servant style, Roland returns his words to Natl.

"Nice to meet you! Well, what am I supposed to do with it?

"Eh, right...... then let's do the first thing to peel Castagna (chestnut)!

"That's the one in the box earlier! I'm carrying it to the pantry, so I'll get it!

"Oh, and then I'll go with you. We'll be working together tomorrow, so we need to remember where and what's left off, and hey."

"Oh well, so will that. Come here, please!

That said, Roland leads Natl to the pantry.

So much less, the two of them returned to the kitchen with their hands full of ingredients in a crate.

Natl takes a huffy breath when he puts a large box of ingredients on the kitchen table.

"Thank you. Then let's just skin this Castagna!

"Roger that. Do you think it's okay to peel the tannins?

"Yeah, a lot of it, so let's peel it a little thicker and peel every tannic skin. Ugh. Also, I want to keep it on the water when I peel it..."

"Then use this bowl. Your water is clean for cooking."

"It's water over here, isn't it? Okay, I'll borrow it."

Natl, who receives the bowl, pumps in the water quickly.

Roland also had another fishy and entertaining look at the way Natl was getting ready in what a fun way.

After completing the previous preparations, the two quickly get to the skin peeling of Castagna.

Castagna, placed in the center, was skinned one after the other by the two hands and placed in a bowl with water strained.

With a serious look on his face, Natl goes on to skin somewhere fun.

Meanwhile, Roland, who was similarly peeling on the other side of the table across, is sweating slightly on his forehead.

(Meh, it's so fast...)

Reason for the sweat on Roland's forehead, it was in the speed of Natl's peeling.

Throughout his days of training in "The Swallow," Roland also refers to his knife judging arm shimmering and improving.

Especially when it comes to peeling, there was even a place where I was proud to say that I could do better than my master, Takumi. (However, this is also a big part of the fact that Takumi doesn't really get peeled...)

But Natl's pace far exceeds that.

It was hard to believe by now that while Roland was peeling one, Natl had finished peeling two.

Even though there are differences in experience dealing with Castagna, they don't dress up when they make an extra big difference - pride as “the swordfish second," rushes Roland.

And that's when I tried to make it faster, the blade tip of the knife slipped through my ghost skin.

"Totally!!

"Yikes! So, are you okay?

To Roland's voice, Natl hurries to stop his hand.

Fortunately, the tip of the blade did not appear to have led to scratches or bleeding to the extent that Roland's left thumb was blurred.

"It's going to be okay. I'm sorry to surprise you."

"You don't have to rush. If you get hurt, it's hard. Now, let's take another breath."

"Ugh."

Roland responds with a slightly lower tone.

While reflecting on how mucky it has become, the yawning still seeps somewhere in my mind.

But if that leads to injury, it's important.

Roland, when he exhaled one by one, concentrated again on his work.

―――――

"Here, I'm done chopping vegetables -"

"Thank you. Then pack it in the champignon (mushroom) with the pork end meat you just slapped. I'll go help you when I'm done with this Aktori."

"Roger that. Yeah, can we start boiling broccoli too?

"Yes. Tomato cuts, please."

Natl and Roland cooking together for the first time today.

Although it was at first that Natl was bewildered by the unfamiliar kitchen or Roland was in a hurry with strange antagonism, the two of them eventually caught the pace and proceeded to cook well without words.

And the back door of the kitchen, which began to show a little calm, is conned.

Coming in through the door was Takumi, who completed the job of acting station manager.

"Good luck. How's it going?

"Oh, good luck. Wow! No, Mr. Natl's fast, and he's amazing!

"Oh no... I'm glad Mr. Roland read ahead and did a lot of things. Oh, please add your powdered cheese and spices."

While continuing his work, Natl checks the progress of Roland's work and gives instructions.

Though words are the ones that are humble, their appearance is full of confidence.

The odd appearance when I first came to this station building no longer made me feel fine dust.

(Looks like you were able to build up a very good training under Mr. Sophia)

To the way she grew up, Takumi smiled and nodded.

"Then I'll leave this one to you. Roland asks for Mr. Natl's support."

"Ugh! I'll take care of it!

"It will be done in about half an hour, so tell all of you so."

Takumi headed to the hall, nodding vigorously at the petty words returned from the two of them.

―――

In the 'swordfish' hall, where the lamp was lit, the station building members were crowded to surround the table covered with white cloth.

When the dishes made by Natl and Roland are lined up, Theo cheers quickly.

"Oops! This is another amazing treat!

"Really, it looks delicious. Wow! I've never had a soup with Castagna in it before."

It was Luna who followed Theo with a voice of joy.

Her eyes shimmer in a bunch of dishes that are a little out of the ordinary.

"That's Mr. Natl. You're just being worked out under that Mr. Sophia, and you're a great cook! Didn't the big rabbit get in the way?

"Shut up, little gizzard! Is that all Temehe's got?

Two boys interacting at their usual rate.

Natl rushes into a follow up when he sees the two of them squeezing their teeth out and squeezing each other.

"Yes, no, thanks to Mr. Roland I was able to cook smoothly even in the kitchen that I'm unfamiliar with. Thank you, Mr. Roland."

"Bruised. Look, you're doing a good job, aren't you?

"Well, that's what I'd like to see for today. Don't even pull your legs tomorrow!

As the two were squirming together again, Takumi, who had remained in the kitchen there, came wiping his hands.

As usual, Takumi beats the two of us.

"Yes, yes, it's around that we fight amicably, and get it while it's warm. Mr. Natl, please take your seats."

"Ah, ha, ha!

When Natl got to his seat, Nyarch stood up as if to replace it.

When Nyarch softly breathes, he smiles at Natl and then sprinkles the glass placed in front of him.

"Then Nyarch takes the head of the kanji! Natl, it's good to see you again! Well, then, kampa!

"" "" "" "Kanpayi" "" "" "

Everyone surrounding the table at Nyarch's signal put a glass on it and put his mouth on it.

White sparkling wine is poured into the adults' glasses and white ooba (grape) juice is divided by carbonated water for the children.

The cucumbers and the refreshing foam spread through the mouth.

A sip of a toast drink on each of them sparked applause from no one.

"Well, hurry up then..."

The first thing Theo reached for was chicken and Castagna soup, today's main dish.

From what I've seen, the chicken seems to be using the winged area.

Together are the slightly heavily chopped seboria (onions) and sanaoria (carrots), and castagna.

Clear seboria, bright orange sanaolia and yellow-stained castagna were all deliciously colored.

Theo first enjoys himself with his eyes, then spoons the soup and slowly tastes it rolling over his tongue.

A simple salty soup, but with a very nourishing taste

Then I try to insert a spoon into the chicken, and the dust comes off the bone easily.

This would not be the case if it had not been carefully simmered.

The chicken, which contains plenty of the deliciousness of the soup, can be broken into hollows in the mouth, and the taste spreads all over the mouth.

And surprisingly, it is Castagna.

The combination of Castagna, which has a dusty texture, and this soup, which has plenty of chicken flavor, was even better than I imagined.

The slightly salty taste of the soup adds to the rustic sweetness of Castagna, and the sweetness of Castagna adds depth to the soup.

Of course, Seboria and Hokuhoku sanaolia simmered in trout are also very wonderful delicious.

Theo nodded Yeah yeah as he broke his face when he flattened the soup in no time.

"Mmm, this tastes so sweet. It's delicious."

"Oh, thank you! Really, did it fit your mouth?

"Of course it is. The kindness of this soup, Mr. Natl's character seems to be showing up"

"Well..."

A usually unfamiliar nattle accidentally dyes her cheeks in the praise given by Theo.

Theo gets stuck with that honest and simple reaction, too.

It was Fidel sitting next to Theo who then cheered.

"The mushroom meat filling over here is amazing! Plenty of meat, plus the cheese on top as a trout, it's so good!

Theo puts a knife in a big championship meat pack and cheeks with a big mouth.

The champignons used in today's meat packing have been carried along with Castagna.

On the back of a large champignon with as much as a palm, this dish is filled with plenty of hiccups mixed with chopped seboria, with cheese on top and cooked carefully in the oven.

Accompanying it is a special sauce made with tomato ketchup and red wine in the gravy spilled over the plate when baking.

The rich flavour of tomato ketchup was complemented by the richness of gravy and the depth of red wine, which gave it an exquisite flavour.

Fidel tries to impress Natl while Nico.

But the word for it came back from somewhere else.

"Oh, that's the guy I made. What do you say, it tastes good!

"Shut up, I'm not talking to you! Even if you made it in the first place, the recipe belongs to Mr. Natl, right? Then doesn't that mean Mr. Natl's recipe was good? Right, Mr. Natl, right?

Natl, who was spoken to again, shook sideways as he sifted his neck in a panic.

"Oh no..., Mr. Roland did a handy job, so this is how it was made to taste good. Oh, my God, I just told him there was this..."

"Um, I wouldn't be that humble. You did make it delicious because Natl's recipe was good. No, you've learned."

Roland hastily followed up on Natl's appearance of being overly frightened.

Fidel on the other hand doesn't get through the usual conditions and what a bad looking look the bat makes.

I lowered my head with a bitter look on my face and wore the championship meat pack all over me.

"Than that, the broccoli over here is delicious too. Yikes. What's in this is the“ tuna ”that Takumi often uses to cook, right?

Then it was Luna who raised her voice.

She had broccoli salted boiled with plenty of white sauce on her cheeks.

Based on mayonnaise, the "tuna” is paired with chopped boiled eggs and finely flaked.

Luna was completely captivated by the rich flavour of white sauce and the overlapping flavour of "tuna" on a bright broccoli stained with dark greenery.

As Natl smiles and thanks Nico, Roland enters the conversation.

"Luna, actually, that“ tuna "is the one Mr. Natl's been making, isn't it?

"What! Mr. Natl can make“ Tuna ”too?

Turning to Natl as Luna opened her eyes in amazement at the answer returned by Roland.

Natl, stared at, nodded naggingly as she dyed her cheeks again.

"Actually, when I first came to this station building, Takumi fed me“ Tsuna ”. So, I couldn't forget about“ Tsuna "then, and I tried my best to make it. However, I didn't get a good bonito, so I'm using Atoon Young Fish."

"What an amazing thing to do with reproduction! Mr. Natl! Tell me a cup of food while you're here, too!

"Yeah, you can ask me anything you want"

Luna sparkles her eyes.

Its familiar gaze was to make Natl feel as if she had a sister.

Nyarch also enjoys Natl's cuisine with a full grin.

"They're all so delicious! Natl, your arms are dizzy!

"If you're gonna say that, you're flashing your arms up, right?

"That's right! Well, shouldn't you worry about the details?

Takumi laughs bitterly in her heart that her arms are broken when she's dizzy......

Regardless of the choice of words, however, Takumi was also of the same opinion as Nyarch.

It's been a long time since I've had Natl's dishes, but they're all so prosperous that I think I can add them to the 'swordfish' menu as they are.

And above all, I was impressed with the assembly of today's menu.

Natl himself explained that the main dish, chicken and castagna soup, was the taste of his hometown.

And the broccoli served with Champignon meat stuffing and tuna mayonnaise, two dishes on the side, are reminiscent of the dishes Natl served when he first came to this station building.

(I see, that's the thing......)

From the three dishes, Takumi, who combines the thoughts of Natl, sets aside his fork and knife and sends his gaze to Natl.

"I fully indulged in Mr. Natl's“ origin ”dish. They were all very delicious. Thank you very much."

…… Oh, thank you. Thank you!

It was a nattle with a full grin at the biggest praise from Takumi, which was put in its short words.
