As soon as Lee Hyun took off the veil, the customers rushed into the tent bar.
“It’s time to start business, right?”
“The bar is open, yeah?”
They asked the customers who were waiting in line to wait for 10 minutes. Since there was no news after waiting 15 minutes, the customers started to push their way in.
“Whoa!”
“It’s Seo-Seoyoon.”
Seoyoon was a celebrity that no one in Korea University did not know.
“Your order, please.”
The female students in charge of serving were running around in dresses.
“Customer, please order!”
“Are you not going to order?”
Even after being pressed to order food, the customers were only captivated by Seoyoon and were just staring.
The visual shock from the stunning beauty!
When the female students brought the menus to them and urged them to order, they were once again surprised by what they saw.
“Live Sea Eel, Wild Sea Bass, Steamed Crab, Roasted Eel, Seafood Black Bean Noodles… Is this a real menu? It says spicy stew will be added when Sea Bass is ordered…”
“Yes. Today’s menu is primarily centered on seafood. The main menu changes daily throughout the festival. However, items like fruit appetizers, Korean omelette rolls, and vegetable pancakes can be ordered at any time.”
[T/N: Korean omelette roll is basically the Korean equivalent of tamagoyaki, the Japanese rolled omelette.]
“For now, please give us 3 servings of Live Sea Eel.”
“3 servings of Live Sea Eel here!”
A burner and grill were quickly set on the customer’s table. Then, the live sea eels were cooked along with seasoning. Every time the eels squirmed, they mixed with the seasoning. Once they were cooked, the nutritious and perfect sea eels were eaten piece by piece.
If they were going to do a bar, Lee Hyun wanted to make profit and bring out the quality of the food.
“Even though it’s a festival bar, it can’t be done half-heartedly!”
It was food customers would pay money to eat.
It couldn’t be made artlessly. It was a job that could only be done if he took responsibility for ensuring taste and nutrition.
Since no one but Lee Hyun could carve the sushi off the sea bass, he was the busiest one.
He was slicing things on the cutting board so artistically!
The sea bass that had its meat deboned flickered its eyes, still alive. It was skillfully cut so as to avoid damaging the nerves.
Today, the wild sea bass, snow crabs, and sea eels were delivered from market merchants with whom he was normally acquainted with. The freshness of the ingredients was guaranteed, and he could obtain reliable wares at a bargain price.
“You were really a college student?”
“Anyway, advertise us to the students. I mean, tell them to buy products from the market.”
Thanks to their generosity, he could use quality ingredients. But since it was a school bar, the prices couldn’t be expensive.
In Royal Road, everyone could make money by hunting, so it didn’t matter much even if you ripped people off. However, asking students to pay expensive prices was a problem of conscience.
In the end, he reduced the servings moderately and adjusted the prices so they weren’t too high.
Nevertheless, the customers were satisfied.
“Here you go.”
“Please go and take their order at table 9.”
Seoyoon also went around taking orders in her dress.
The force of a Goddess gushed out, even when she was simply walking around!
There were many cases where customers spilled their food while staring blankly. It was a frequent occurrence for them to just stare at Seoyoon for several minutes as they drank their alcohol.
Every time Seoyoon walked by, she left behind a sweet lemon scent.
She only applied a light toner and some lotion for makeup. Nevertheless, she was still overwhelming with just a bare face, but today, she had especially sprayed on some perfume.
Seoyoon held out the menu for the customers.
“…”
She stood still and waited for their order.
She was embarrassed by the gazes of the customers surrounding her, but she endured.
“Please give us a fruit appetizer.”
“…”
Seoyoon lightly nodded and turned around.
Even customers who had a considerable amount of appetizers on their table were scrambling to make a new order. It was attributed to their greed to try to speak to Seoyoon once.
“The customers have been waiting for 30 minutes.”
“Chef, when will the steamed crab be ready?”
“It will be out shortly!”
Only Lee Hyun was being worked to the point of death. Because of the other students whose cooking speeds were so slow, he had to do 2 times, no 3 times the work.
On the first day of the festival, he couldn’t sightsee the fireworks or the student’s songs, and wasn’t even been able leave the bar at all.
On the next day, even more customers pressed in early on.
