Daddy Fantasy World Restaurant

Chapter 580 What An Adorable Little Rabbit

“Today is the moon festival, a festival celebrated in my hometown. We have to eat mooncakes on this day, which entails reunion. You’re most likely going to be quite busy tonight, so I won’t keep you, but please take this box of mooncakes back with you.” Mag entered the kitchen and soon returned with a box of mooncakes that was bound by a string, which he handed over to Gloria.

“Thank you, I’ll be sure to enjoy it.” Gloria nodded earnestly as she accepted the mooncakes.

“Alright, I’ll see you next time, then.” Mag nodded with a smile.

“See you next time, Mr. Mag.” Gloria nodded at Mag before departing.

“Mooncakes... Reunion.” Within the horse-drawn carriage, Gloria stared at the box of mooncakes sitting on her lap with a thoughtful expression. A smile soon appeared on her face as she murmured to herself, “In that case, I’ll take them back with me and share them with everyone. Mickey really likes dessert foods.”

“Did you hear? Mamy Restaurant is going to hold a moon festival celebration tonight. It seems that a lot of people are planning on going.”

“What’s a moon festival?”

“I heard from Boss Mag that it’s a festival during which we engage in activities like flower-viewing and moon-viewing. There are also free mooncakes for everyone.”

“I don’t have much interest in flowers or the moon, but I do love Boss Mag’s cooking. Let’s go, then.”

Night fell, and hordes of people began to swarm toward Mamy Restaurant. The celebration was due to commence at 8 pm sharp, and many people had already gathered at the plot of empty land outside the restaurant.

The stage was only a temporary makeshift one, but it had a steel frame structure and appeared to be very stable and strong. Mobai and Lulu had spent an entire afternoon setting it up. There were wheels under it that ensured portability, and it could be split down the middle for easy storage when it wasn’t being used.

Furthermore, many large baskets of mooncakes had already been placed beside the stage. The mooncakes were wrapped in oil paper and stacked into pyramids, so no one could see what they looked like, but the fragrant aroma of the mooncakes was already wafting around the stage.

“It smells so good! Are those the mooncakes that Boss Mag had been talking about? It smells like some sort of dessert.”

“Looks like we were right to come here tonight. Boss Mag’s food never disappoints.”

“There are so many people today, though; we’d probably be lucky to get one mooncake per person.”

All of the customers looked at the large baskets with eyes glowing with anticipation. Curiosity toward the mooncakes was the main motivational factor that drew everyone to the moon festival celebration. There were many mooncakes in the baskets, but there were also just as many—if not more-people attending the celebration. Among them, there was no lack of people who had arrived with their entire families. There were children playing joyfully with each other around the stage, and the atmosphere was quite cheerful.

“Father, can I have a mooncake first?” In the restaurant, Amy looked up at Mag with anticipation in her eyes. The small round mooncakes were like miniature moons, and they held an irresistible allure to her.

There were a few baskets filled with mooncakes sitting on the table beside Mag, and there appeared to be even more mooncakes in the baskets than those beside the stage.

“Of course you can. There are eight types of mooncakes today. However, mooncakes are best eaten with everyone else, so you can only have one for now. You can have more when the celebration begins,” Mag replied with a smile.

There were crispy skin five kernel, meat floss, black sesame seed, and bacon mooncakes, snow skin sweet bean paste and osmanthus mooncakes, as well as mixed sugar skin egg yolk and crystal sugar mooncakes.

The crispy skin mooncakes that had been pulled fresh from the oven were emitting a heavenly aroma. Meanwhile, the translucent snow skin mooncakes seemed to be exuding wisps of coolness, making them appear as if they were pristine icy celestial maidens. The mixed sugar skin mooncakes emanated a faint yellow sheen, and one could almost see the filling within.

“I can only have one...” A conflicted look appeared on Amy’s little face. She looked at all of the mooncakes before her, and was struck by the feeling that all of them appeared to be very delicious. She wanted to pounce onto the table and take a bite of everything, but she could only choose one. That was quite vexing to her.

Sally and Yabemiya were busy placing the mooncakes onto the table so they could cool down, and amused smiles appeared on their faces as they overheard Amy and Mag’s conversation. One adorable mooncake after another was produced by Mag, and each and every one of them looked absolutely perfect. A captivating aroma was wafting throughout the restaurant and even their stomachs were growling involuntarily.

“You can only eat one now, but you’ll be able to taste all of the flavors soon, so don’t be too conflicted,” Mag reminded with a smile. As expected, all foodies had choice anxiety when it came to delicious cuisine.

“Alright, then I’ll choose this super pretty ice rabbit mooncake.” Amy pointed at a snow skin osmanthus mooncake. The golden osmanthus filling was enveloped by the translucent snow skin, making it appear as if it were a miniature moon encapsulated within a block of ice. There was also a jade rabbit imprinted on the surface of the mooncake, clearly the work of a mold. Every single detail of the rabbit was perfect, giving it a very life-like and vivid appearance.

“Wash your hands and take one,” Mag said with a smile. All of the snow skin mooncakes had been made at noon as in his past experience, it was best to refrigerate them for a few hours prior to consumption. That way, the texture would be better than if they were consumed at room temperature.

“Alright!” Amy rushed into the kitchen with her little stool and washed her hands. She then carefully picked up a snow skin osmanthus mooncake. Her fingertips were struck with a cool refreshing sensation, and the mooncake seemed to be a little bouncy.

“What an adorable little rabbit. I’ll have to you eat you now, though.” Amy looked at the mooncake in her hand with a joyful expression before taking a bite.

She bit through the cold mooncake skin, and the aroma of the osmanthus filling immediately wafted forth. The sweet filling coated her eager taste buds, while the soft snow skin presented a cool and refreshing texture.

Amy’s eyes completely lit up as she chewed quickly with bulging cheeks, just like a rabbit. She nodded, and said, “Oh! This tastes so good! It’s cool like ice cream, but it doesn’t melt in my mouth, and the filling tastes like flowers—fragrant and sweet. This is super delicious! You’re the best, Father!”

“Slow down; chew carefully before you swallow.” Mag offered words of caution, but he was unable to hold back his pleased smile. Nothing made him happier than praise from Amy. He turned to Sally and Yabemiya with a smile, and said, “Aisha, Miya, you two can have a mooncake each as well. You’ll be performing and handing out mooncakes soon, so you’ll definitely get hungry.”

“Father, can we really perform ‘Summer is Here’ today? But we don’t have little foldable fans.” Amy’s mouth was still stuffed full of mooncake as she turned to Mag.

Sally and Yabemiya were also slightly concerned.
