The restaurant has a high ceiling, with countless coral trees growing from the sea standing tall and supporting the fishbone boat. On the left is a row of tables specifically for the siren tribe to dine. The tables are all in the water, and many siren with tails of different colors sit on the tables chatting and laughing, occasionally slapping the water with their tails, looking very comfortable.
The tables on the right are much more normal, with wooden floors that are raised significantly above the water level, making it convenient for non-swimmers to dine. Humans, dwarves, orcs, and elves dressed in mercenary uniforms sit at the tables, enjoying their meals to the fullest.
It's really interesting that the two sides are separated by the waterway in the middle.
Rather than calling this a land of mermaids, it's more accurate to describe it as a place where different races gather.
...
Perhaps it was because of the junior chef badge pinned to Xu Milu's chest that many people cast interested glances at her.
Several drunken mercenaries tried to approach and talk to them, but were stopped by the bows and arrows in the hands of an elf.
"Friend of the elves, it's a pleasure to meet you."
The beautiful female elf raised her glass to Xu Milu from afar, but her gaze lingered on the elven wooden brooch on Xu Milu's chest.
Xu Milu suddenly realized that the brooch was a gift from the elf Lola. It was made of elf wood and had special significance. No wonder the female elf, whom she did not know, would take the initiative to stop the trouble for her.
She called over the waiter behind the table, took out a white pearl, and said, "I'll pay for that elf lady's bill, and also bring her a dessert."
The siren waiter noted down her request and returned shortly after, smiling as he said:
"Thank you for your generosity, madam. Beautiful lady, what would you like to order? We have some very rare rock ginger that we just got today, as well as octopus noodles. The chef's recommended dishes are wasabi octopus noodles, rock ginger simmered in sake, seaweed volcanic mud egg tart, and lava-grilled pork belly. For drinks, I suggest you order the hot seaweed mud drink. It's very delicious when it's hot!"
Xu Milu nodded: "Then I'll take these for now, and bring me two servings of each."
The siren waiter looked at Ah Chou lying on the ground and suddenly realized: "Yes, ma'am, would you like me to prepare some tableware for your magical beast?"
At a seaside restaurant, it's common to dine with aquatic creatures; at the next table, a giant horned bull was chewing on a seaweed ball.
"No need, it's fine as long as it's with me."
As Xu Milu spoke, she bent down and picked up A Chou, and under the astonished gaze of the siren waiter, she carried A Chou onto the wooden floor with ease.
Hmm, she seems to have gotten quite a bit stronger.
...
...
Soon, dinner for the person and the tortoise was served, and the waiter thoughtfully prepared a flat plate for Ah Chou to eat on.
The seaweed volcanic mud egg tarts didn't look very appealing. The dark green seaweed mud was sticky and clung to the tarts, while the crust was made of light gray volcanic mud. The combination of green and gray was really not flattering.
If she hadn't been certain that this thing wasn't poisonous, Xu Milu really wouldn't have dared to take a bite.
With one bite, a strange and intense salty taste rushed into her throat. She subconsciously chewed a few times, and slowly, the salty and fishy taste disappeared, replaced by a faint minty aroma.
This dessert has a distinctly Mermaid City vibe.
Xu Milu nodded and began to taste the next dish.
The wasabi octopus noodles were served in a shallow wooden bowl. The translucent octopus noodles were soaked in a light green broth. When she picked them up with chopsticks, a strong and pungent aroma filled her nostrils.
It tastes like wasabi.
Xu Milu took a bite and was immediately amazed.
The octopus strips are very thin, each one the same thickness. The raw octopus retains its crisp texture to the maximum extent, making it easy to enjoy the sensation of chewing. The light green broth is similar to wasabi, and its just-right spiciness neutralizes the fishy smell of the raw octopus strips, cleverly enhancing the freshness.
One bite, and you get to eat takoyaki right in front of you—pure bliss!
