The waiter was explaining to him when a plump middle-aged man came over, "What is the matter, honored guest? Is there a problem?"
"No problem, I was just curious as to how your establishment doesn't even have a menu," Chen Nuo said.
"What is this 'menu'?" The man glanced at the waiter.
"It seems to be a list of dishes. This honored guest was asking why our restaurant doesn't have a menu. I couldn't answer that, so now that you're here, Shopkeeper, I'll go to the kitchen," the waiter said and dashed off with the order slip.
Shopkeeper turned and offered Chen Nuo and Jin Zha an apologetic smile, "I am truly sorry, honored guests. You aren't locals, are you? Around here it's not common to have one, so we don't really provide a menu, oh, a list of dishes."
Chen Nuo frowned, "This has nothing to do with whether I'm local or not. How can you run a restaurant without a menu? It makes ordering so troublesome."
