My name is Ryu, and I came from an impoverished village. And my dream is to become a chef. I want to become a chef it's because I want to make food that brings everyone joyful. But first I had to earn some money to start my restaurant, so I went to work at a restaurant and my job it's usually cleaning the floor nor washing dishes.
Whenever I was cleaning the floor nor washing the dishes, I will always so envious when I see the chef cooking. And that gets me more motivation to work hard. Every night I will pray for the god to let me open a restaurant that makes everybody happy. Whenever I have free time I will watch other people cooking, I have no idea why it makes me so exciting and cheerful. it's almost like I'm in heaven.
In next day, when I went to my workplace I starting to work and my manager in the kitchen yell that bastard didn't come to work today, and how supposed do I cook for our customers!! And my brain was like this is finally my chance, yes! So I went and begged can I help you cook as today? And my manager pleased me to assist her cook in the kitchen as for today.
When I revied the first order, I was so excited to cook my first ever dishes in my whole life, it's felt like my first kiss. My first dishes it's called Ramen Steak. But later I was like how do I cook this? and where's the recipe? So I asked my supervisor about Ramen Steak recipe. She replied go figure it out by yourself. And I was like Oh No!!! And I went back to my kitchen and trying to think how to make it.
This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
5 minutes later, I still yet to know how to cook these dishes and I know that I can't let our customer wait any longer, so I decided to start making the foods. The first ingredient that came in my mind is noodle, steak, and some vegetable. And the soup recipe is put some chicken stock, kombu (kelp), skipjack tuna flakes, dried babies sardines (niboshi) and lastly onion.
After preparing all the ingredients, I now starting to boil the noodle and on the side, and the other side is where I make the soup. After noodle, it's done steaming, I'll just need to wait the soup done stewing. Afterward, add some vegetable and steak into the soup. Subsequently, I take the soup pour into a bowl then I will carefully place the noodle into the soup.
After that, we have the Ramen Steak!! Tada!! When the waiters start to serve the customer with my first dishes ever, I was so excited and watch the customer's expression. It almost looks like I'm a stalker. When he ate the food, I saw his expression is filled with warmth and love. Moreover, I am so delighted that he likes my food. God thank you for giving me this chance, I wish this will never end.
Then suddenly something strange happened, I felt like I'm about to sleep due to lack of sleep last night, and all I remember it's that I fainted. Then when I wake up I was surrounded by a bunch of people. So I asked where am I? Who are you? Then I saw my surroundings and all I see is a bunch of store and market, one of the people said this is the Kingdom of Kuma.
