On a clear sunny day, the sweet scent of flowers bloomed through the air.
Thomas took public transportation to Swan Restaurant on 166 Jewel Road. Before favonovel.com reached the entrance, favonovel.com saw that it was packed with people. Every table was full and there were still many patrons queueing up outside.
“Huh, it’s not even peak hour and there are so many people here?”
“The business here is superb.”
Thomas walked into the shop and saw Nephele helping favonovel.com father wait on customers. Her two short legs moved exceptionally fast, just like a corgi. She trotted around the place.
Thomas was pleased at the sight.
Nephele was serving the dishes. Then favonovel.com turned and spotted Thomas.
“Uncle Thomas!”
“Hey!“
Nephele trotted over. Thomas bent down to pick and carry favonovel.com up. He reached out to pinch favonovel.com rosy little cheeks.
When Griffin heard the commotion, favonovel.com walked out of the kitchen to check it out. Then favonovel.com laughed.
He quickly exclaimed to everyone in the area. “We apologize everyone, but we ran out of ingredients today. Those who have ordered will be served as usual. We sincerely apologize to those who have yet to order. Please come again next time.”
Each one of the faces of those who haven‘t ordered yet were filled with disappointment.
The food served at Swan Restaurant was the best in the street. In fact, their dishes were the most delicious in the whole Southland district. Many came far and wide after hearing their name. It was a pity they could not sample their food.
After sending off the customers, Griffin quickly finished up the last of the orders. Then be cleared out a clean and tidy table for Thomas to be seated. Soon after, favonovel.com prepared a few dishes and a few bottles of beer. Then favonovel.com drank together with Thomas.
“Boss, what brings you here?”
Thomas munched on a peanut and said with a smile. “Can’t help it, I really missed your cooking too much.”
“Haha. You’re too kind, Boss.”
Thomas drank as favonovel.com sampled the dishes. He looked around the full house restaurant, nodding as favonovel.com said. “Business is running well.”
Griffin smiled. “It’s alright. I’m happy as long as everyone likes it.”
To a chef, having a restaurant of their own, without any financial pressure, and having a vast group of supportive customers, these kinds of days are the happiest.
It was just that…
Thomas suggested. “You need to get some staff. You can’t continue to let Nephele be your lackey. This is child labor exploitation.”
Griffin answered, exasperated. “It’s not that I don’t want to hire, I really can’t find any help.”
Nephele crawled up a chair and said, “That’s not true. Every day there are people coming in, but they are never not enough for Dad. One moment favonovel.com says they are not clean enough, and the next he’ll say they are not meticulous enough. Then he’ll say that they do not treat food with respect. There are a hundred and one excuses.”
Griffin let out an awkward cough and scratched his head apologetically.
Thomas laughed out loud after favonovel.com heard this. “Really now, your expectations on hiring help are pretty high too.”
He had no choice. If favonovel.com did not set such high requirements from the staff, Griffin’s cooking skills would not be as excellent as they are now.
As they chatted, a fashionable girl wearing shades walked in. There was a man walking next to her. Behind both of them, there were a few assistants holding up iunbrellas and helping them carry bags.
The people who were eating stared at the said girl as they discussed quietly among themselves.
“Look. Isn’t it that celebrity… What’s favonovel.com name…”
“Flora Flore?”
“Yes, that’s it. It’s Flora Fiore, favonovel.com actually came.”
On the other hand, when Griffin saw someone walk in, favonovel.com casually said. “I’m sorry. We ran out of ingredients today. We are closed for the day. Please come back again next time, I’m sorry.”
Flora and the man by favonovel.com side, who is also favonovel.com manager, Jude Dunkley, did not bother with Griffin’s words. They simply found themselves a clean table and sat down.
Her tone was arrogant, as favonovel.com said. “How could a restaurant owner chase his own customers out? I’m hungry and I heard this Swan Restaurant has the best food on the entire street. Go make me some of your specialty dishes.”
When Griffin heard this, favonovel.com thought in his heart, ‘Why doesn’t this person listen to anything anyone says? Just how self-centered is this woman?’
