After An Yilun also posted his article, it immediately sparked a heated discussion.
Some were curious, others skeptical.
Just yesterday, a well-known niconico UP host recommended this Chinese Restaurant, and today a famous ACG circle blogger, 'Mr. TAKI,' took the stage. From a conspiracy theory perspective, it all seemed very much like a publicity stunt.
'Mr. TAKI's' fan base was concentrated in the anime and game fields, with some literary fans, but they were not a major proportion.
In response to the voices of doubt, An Yilun replied in detail.
His blog did not involve any commercial interests, and he himself did not receive a cent of promotional funding.
So, An Yilun replied with confidence. At the end of his food blog post, he wrote, "Thanks to the restaurant for the hospitality. I think I might go there again in the near future. But, it has to be when I have some spare money on hand; after all, if I go alone, three dishes would cost nearly 10,000 yen. I need to work a few days at a part-time job just to have a good meal (laugh)."
After posting and replying to the blog, An Yilun stretched lazily.
Strangely enough, after drinking a few cups of green tea at that small shop, he was not the least bit tired, even late at night. He felt refreshed, as if he had slept soundly for a whole day.
"Eri, thank you for your pictures." He picked up his phone and sent an email.
"You're welcome. I saw your blog."
From the other end came the reply, "After seeing your blog, I suddenly wanted to tweet. I'll use the 'Bai Muying' account to post."
Tokyo, at the residence of the British diplomatic officer.
The bedroom light was on, and Sazuma Eri sat in front of the computer, deep in thought.
Compared to the high-end restaurants under the Far Moon brand, the Chinese cuisine at that shop won in its comforting taste.
Home-cooked dishes, in terms of appearance and presentation, certainly did not match up to high-end Western cuisine. Sazuma Eri had tasted many exquisite dishes, yet the dishes of Xia's Restaurant still had merit worth her praise.
She was not Tiqie Helinai, who always spoke about commoner cuisine. Whether it was Japanese food, French Western cuisine, or Chinese cuisine, as long as it was delicious, it was fine. At least in Eri's view, the Chinese cuisine in that shop deserved an evaluation of authenticity and deliciousness.
If An Yilun was merely an outsider, having only a superficial understanding of culinary matters, then Sazuma Eri was equivalent to being half a gourmet, carefully comparing when evaluating.
The restaurant's dishes were not the slightest bit inferior to those she had at high-end restaurants.
This meant that the head chef of the small shop had culinary skills comparable to those of high-end restaurant chefs.
The inferior aspects were the environment and service.
Under the lamp's light, Eri sat before her keyboard.
At home, Eri dressed casually. After removing her twin-tail hairbands, her golden long hair fell down, and she wore a sweatshirt with a junior high school emblem, green trousers, and a green long-sleeved top. She also put on her work-specific black-framed glasses.
As a semi-gourmet, Sazuma Eri held a "professional" consciousness.
Therefore, she pondered which angle to approach to write a food review article that gave an impressive sense of professionalism.
After thinking for a long time, Sazuma Eri's pale fingers began to dance on the keyboard.
"A life's menu: starters, soup, fish, meat, main course, salad, dessert, drink."
"A qualified IGO-certified chef ought to create their own life's menu!"
"But unfortunately, tonight I went to a Chinese restaurant, not a Western one. They had no starters. I sat there from noon to afternoon. Now that I think about it, it's incredible how patient I was!"
"So, what kept me sitting for so long?"
"Tea!"
Her fingers suddenly stopped, and Sazuma Eri savored the shop's jade-green tea, as if the faint fragrance lingered in her mouth.
"That exquisite green tea, which I cannot find even at Far Moon Resort." Eri took a deep breath, "I can definitely say it's either the tea leaves' quality that is astounding, or the tea-maker's skills are remarkable. In any case, those few cups of tea were worth spending an afternoon there. If possible, I would like to bring my laptop, sit in the shop during the day without ordering any food, just drinking tea while working. Such a pleasant life..."
Sazuma Eri's tweet was filled with praise for the tea, sparingly mentioning the main course.
'Bai Muying's' tweet, once posted, stirred up a heated discussion in the ACG circle again.
From the famous niconico singer Tianfeng to the game and animation expert 'Mr. TAKI', now it was by a renowned R-18 female illustrator.
It was truly blossoming in three directions.
It could be said that the fanbase of these three figures ranged from music to comics, covering nearly the entire AGG field, and after tonight, the otaku community might all learn about this Chinese Restaurant in Tokyo.
Toot toot.
Not long after the tweet was posted, Sazuma Eri received a questioning text message.
"What are you doing, golden retriever!"
Furious?
Eri's lips curled up, replying, "I was moved by the food in that restaurant, so I tweeted about my feelings. Do you have to intervene even in this?"
"Delete it immediately!" Tiqie Helinai's words were cold and sharp.
"Delete? No way!" Eri replied cheerfully, "I originally had no plan to visit that restaurant last night, but, oh Eriina-sama, your reaction was too strange, it piqued my curiosity instead. How could an ordinary commoner's restaurant get the prestigious Divine Tongue's attention and resentment... Today, after my visit, I think I have an answer."
"The chef of that shop is a student of your Far Moon, isn't he? Let me guess, is he at odds with you? One of the Ten Seats?"
This time Tiqie Helinai was silent for a long time, with no response.
"I've made up my mind!"
Eri laughed, "From now on, I'll be a loyal customer of that restaurant, at least twice a week!"
Tiqie Helinai seemed to have thrown her phone in anger, with no further messages.
...
Xia's Chinese Restaurant, blooming across the entire ACG circle, had attracted a large group of otaku, which was something Xia Yu could not have anticipated.
After saying goodbye to the guests and sending Morioka Makoto home, Xia Yu returned to the shop.
"System: The restaurant has received over 30 guests, with a 100% satisfaction rate. The 'Initial Bloom' task is now complete."
"You have obtained a recipe—'Sautéed Qingjiang Vegetable' (Blue)."
"Culinary skill level has been raised to lv10."
Level 10 culinary skill?
His steps halted at the door of the shop as Xia Yu delightedly summoned the character panel.
Sure enough!
At the top of the talent tree diagram, the 'Heart of Cooking' icon was gleaming, signifying that he could now allocate Talent Points to this high-level talent!
All at once, Xia Yu allocated the 4 saved Talent Points to the 'Heart of Cooking.'
"Heart of Cooking (4): Basic Heart of Cooking, the host gains basic emotional control over diners."
He couldn't resist snapping his fingers.
Basic Heart of Cooking.
He could hardly contain the impulse to see what heights his dishes could reach with this new talent.
"Host: Xia Yu.
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Comprehensive Physical Fitness: lv20 (strength, agility, explosiveness, nerve reflexes, etc.)
Comprehensive Culinary Skills: lv10 [One-star Chef]
..."
Upon reaching lv10, the system evaluation also progressed from [Novice Takeoff] to [One-star Chef].
This rating coincidentally matched the rating of the IGO international gourmet organization.
Up to this point, it could be said that Xia Yu has truly embarked on the path of a professional chef!
