Good evening, this is Ren . I woke up from my nap at dinnertime without oversleeping . Although I only slept for a bit, I felt a lot more refreshed . Plus I’m hungry!
Let’s move to the dining hall then~ Ah, right let’s put the hood back on .
But when I arrived at the dining hall and looked around, it was full . Very full . Ah, but there was one vacant seat . It looks like Lily saved a seat for me . She was waving with a big smile on her face, how cute .
I walked up to Lily and gave a slight bow .
“Good evening, Lily . ”
“Good evening, Ren . ”
“Good evening!”

Eh, who?
“Ah, this child is Alisa . She also works here and her break time is the same as mine . So, I also invited her to join us…… . was it perhaps troublesome?”
“No, I’m fine with that . Especially since Lily invited her . ”
“Ah, yes . There won’t be any problems . She is a good child . ”
“Okay . ”
“Hey, what are you two whispering about?”
“No, we’re not talking about anything . ”
“That’s right, Alisa . ”
“Ehh—”
I suppose she seems like an obedient child? The girl had light black twin-tails . Her height was quite short and her chest was moderate . I guess she looked like the cute type? She also had a slow manner of speech and looked quite spirited .
“Anyways, should we start eating now?”
“Um, what are we having for today?”
“Ah-……”
This inn usually prepared about two or three types of dishes, and customers would choose and eat what they liked . Although, it was basically just different types of soups, and slightly different salads, and such .
“Since there’s been an increase of customers due to the recipes that you made, the stuff being made is…… . ”
“Ahh……”
So there was only that . What to say . That oil-drenched orc meat and…… . what was it called again? Well, never mind .
In any case, it was troublesome that there was only that . I ended up being forced to go to the restroom multiple times during the night because of that . I didn’t want to deal with that again .
“Um, is there anything else?”
“There is one other thing . That one was also made by Ren . ”
Huh? What would that be? It couldn’t possibly be the udon…… .
“So there’s something else? But I don’t remember making anything else?”
“But you did? Don’t you remember? It’s the Sausage in Between Bread?”
“Sausage in betw-…… . oh hotdogs . ”
“So it’s called a hot dog?”
“Yes . ”
Apparently, hot dogs didn’t exist in this world . There were sandwiches that had stuff like ham and such in between sliced bread . But the concept of just cutting open bread and stuffing things inside didn’t really exist . But with things like sandwiches in existence, you would think that someone would’ve also come up with something like that .
“I’ll go get it . ”
“I’ll go with you too!”
So they left to go get it and soon returned back . They also brought one for me . Thanks .
“This is good, but since it’s so simple to make, it seems several other places have also started making it . ”
“Since it’s just sandwiching things inside~ . ”
“Ah……but this isn’t actually it’s completed state . ”
“Eh!?”
“Really!?”
“Yes, it’s supposed to also have this and this . After adding these two sauces then it’s done . ”
I began explaining while taking out the mustard and ketchup from Storage .
I completed these two when I was in the village in the south .
Ketchup can basically be made using tomatoes and a few other seasonings, but for mustard, there are numerous other ingredients that made it more difficult to make .
Since there wasn’t any apple vinegar, I was thinking about using wine vinegar as a replacement, but my timing was bad . When I went to buy it, there wasn’t any vinegar left in stock .
As for the tumeric…… . I bought it from a peddler in the south village who was about to give up on selling it since he couldn’t find anyone who wanted to buy it .
Since I already knew that many spices and herbs were apparently treated as medicinal herbs, I had suggested to him that it would be better to visit stores and merchants who sold medicine .
“Like this……and we’re done . ”
“Ohh…… . ”
“So this is the true form…… . ”
They were overreacting a bit .
“Please enjoy it then?”
“I-In that case . ”
“Here I go . ”
I also started eating, nom nom . Yep, this combination of saltiness and umami was the best . Or, actually, there were other great tasting things too .
I looked over at the other two and they had an expression of bliss on their faces . The two of them were gushing from the taste . To be honest, that kind of expression probably isn’t really appropriate for a young girl in public .
“What is this……”
“Woah……”
In this world, there weren’t that many seasonings or sauces . So it couldn’t be helped that it was like this . Or perhaps it just didn’t exist in commoner cuisine, but it might exist in noble cuisine? Hmm, I would like to try eating it .
“Would you like some more?”
“Yes, please!”
“Me too!”
Hahaha, so you two really did want more .
For me, I was full after eating one and having some soup and salad . But those two ended up eating three times as much as me .
The gazes around me were also so painful that I hurriedly put away the ketchup and mustard . Some people looked like they wanted to steal it .
“Haaaaa…… . ”
“Fwaaaa…… . ”
The two of them were still entrenched in bliss, and sure enough, the surrounding people were trying to talk to me, so I quickly made my escape .
“Well then, I’ll be heading back to my room . ”
“Fwaa…… . . ”
“Good night…… . ”
“Ah, wait a minute……”
It looks like a person nearby called out to me, but I pretended not to notice . I’m sorry for the trouble . Bye-bye .
Afterward, I went to bed after taking a bath . I wonder if there will be an uproar tomorrow? I was very sleepy but I still couldn’t help worrying about it . Good night~
