"Boss, what did that man who ate here earlier... huff huff... order?" A very young girl ran over quickly, then stood in front of Heath with her hands on her hips, panting as she asked.

"You mean?" Heath didn't quite understand. He had just entertained three more guests, all men, and he didn't know which guest the girl was referring to.

"It's that Mr. Lordan, who looks so melancholy, in such a bad mood, and always has a stern face!" The girl took a breath and looked at Heath with a mixture of nervousness and anticipation. Heath scratched his head. It was Mr. Lordan.

Heath looked at the girl in front of him. She looked to be about twenty years old. She had some freckles on her face and wore two braids. She looked like a country girl. When she spoke, a small tiger tooth would show, making her look a little mischievous and cute. She had bright eyes and white teeth and was quite pretty.

"Mr. Lordan ordered a bowl of pork intestine noodles." Heath nodded. It wasn't something that couldn't be said. When the President of the United States visited China, he ate at a street stall, and the owner didn't charge him. Instead, he made the President's meal into a "Presidential Set Meal." If Mr. Lordan were a celebrity, Heath might be able to make a "Celebrity Set Meal" as well.

But thinking about it this way, Heath felt that he could have made a championship meal back then, since Cynthia had eaten at Heath's restaurant several times.

“Pig intestines? That stuff…” The girl paused for a moment. Heath noticed that she subconsciously swallowed. Heath raised an eyebrow. It seemed that this girl probably knew Mr. Lordan.

"Can I order?" the girl asked expectantly. Heath shook his head, then nodded.

“I don’t have any ingredients here, but if you can provide them, I can still prepare them for you,” Heath explained, and the girl immediately pouted.

"My family only raises cattle and sheep, we don't actually have any pigs." The girl sighed. It seemed she really was a farm girl. No wonder she had a different air about her than city girls. Also, her skin was a bit darker, like a wheat color, and she was quite pretty.

Heath was also helpless. He went to the market in Pallet Town today and really didn't see any pig intestines for sale. He didn't know where Mr. Lordan got them from. Heath thought that if he could get them, he could make that dish.

Chapter 325 Scallion Sausage

“Pig intestines are delicious, but my family doesn’t raise pigs. Mr. Lordan knows the butcher at that pig farm, so he can get pig intestines every day.” The girl said with a conflicted look. Heath looked at the girl who naturally and familiarly put her hand on the counter and was a little speechless. What’s wrong with this girl? Why is she so familiar?

Before Heath could even say a word, the girl acted as if they were already very familiar with each other. If Heath didn't know better, he might have thought he knew her.

However, the girl's words also made Heath understand why Mr. Lordan was able to obtain pig intestines, and even the fresh kind of pig intestines.

"Indeed, the pork intestines taste really good, and I also know a way to cook them that tastes even better." Heath smiled. He had eaten that way of cooking pork intestines once before, and the taste was indeed amazing. Unfortunately, he had never been able to buy pork intestines. Heath wondered if he should find some time to go to a pig farm.

The world uses animal organs far too inefficiently, which Heath thinks is quite wasteful, as there are many ways to eat them.

"Pork intestines? You mean pig intestines?" The girl blinked, looking puzzled. Heath nodded; he still preferred to call them pork intestines.

"Wait a minute, boss." The girl suddenly jumped up, threw out a Tauros, and then rode the Tauros away, disappearing from Heath's sight at lightning speed. Heath waved his hand to fan away the dust, somewhat speechless. How could this girl have such a personality?

She was energetic and impulsive, not at all like a girl, but more like a boy. Heath felt that after getting to know this girl, he would unconsciously start to treat her like a brother.

Really, it doesn't feel out of place at all.

Heath waited for a while, but the girl didn't arrive. Instead, several other guests came. Heath greeted them with a smile. The local specialties of Pallet Town were delicious and tasted very good. Heath planned to buy some tonight and cook them for the guests tomorrow. That way, he would have completed his mission in Pallet Town.

Then, once it's almost time, we can set off for Dark Grey City.

Pallet Town is still too small. Everything here moves at a very slow pace. Heath is really not used to it. If this continues, Heath feels that he might become lazy too.

"Boss~" A familiar voice called out. Heath looked up at the Tauros that had kicked up a cloud of dust. He couldn't help but reach out and grab the window of the food cart. If the girl kept bringing more dust over, Heath would have no choice but to close the window and wait for the dust to settle before opening the door again.

Fortunately, this time the girl was sensible and put away the Kentauros early. Then she quickly ran over and happily handed a bag to Heath. Heath glanced at it and saw that it was indeed pig intestines, very fresh, probably prepared that morning.

Heath looked at the girl strangely. When he was entertaining the guests, Heath had casually asked if the people of Pallet Town liked to eat pig intestines. The girls shook their heads in surprise, but what they said made Heath understand some things.

"Pig intestines? Only the family living in the Flame Farm likes to eat that. The Lordan family next door also likes it quite a bit." That's what the diner said. Heath figured this girl was probably from the Flame family.

The names of people in the Pokémon world are really strange. There are names like "Flame," and I remember there were names like "Lan." I wonder if they can collect all five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

"Do you want some? Do you have any requests?" Heath asked the girl in front of him. The girl nodded immediately, but she didn't say what she wanted. Instead, she told Heath that she wanted him to make it the way he had just described. Heath immediately understood.

"You have quite the appetite. Just wait, since you provided the ingredients, I'll only charge you two dollars and fifty cents per skewer." Heath looked at the girl in front of him with admiration. She knew what kind of food she liked and that her requirement for the food was that it taste good. However, the fact that she was allergic to milk made Heath pause for a moment, because this girl was allergic to milk.

However, allergies in the world are incredibly diverse. Heath has even seen people allergic to sunlight, plastic, and most bizarrely, someone allergic to air, without knowing what component caused the allergy.

However, being allergic to anything is never a good thing, and Heath felt it was better for her not to have any allergies.

Under the curious gaze of the girl, Heath cleaned the large intestine and then put it into the braising pot to braise. Then she took out several scallions. Heath planned to make scallion intestines, which is a very special way of eating. The flavor of scallions and large intestines are mixed together, which can be said to be very selective. If it is an ordinary customer, he probably really can't accept this unique flavor. Only those who like to eat large intestines will like this special flavor.

It's very easy to prepare scallions. After cleaning them, remove any inedible or unpalatable parts. Then set the scallions aside. Finally, once the pork intestines are braised, stuff the intestines into the scallions, cut the scallions into sections, and then skewer them for grilling.

During the barbecue, Heath summoned Charizard. Charizard's muscles became even more prominent. Heath noticed that when Charizard appeared, the girls all had a shocked expression, probably because they had never seen such a strong Charizard before.

"Charmeleon, grill this up, and as for the heat..." Heath explained some requirements and details to Charmeleon, and then Charmeleon breathed out flames. Its control over flames is getting stronger and stronger, which is normal, since Charmeleon is a fire-type Pokémon.

As Heath turned the onion sausage, he sprinkled it with his specially formulated tree fruit chili powder, and a rich aroma instantly wafted up, making the girl swallow hard.

Once the skewers were grilled, the girl immediately bought six, breathed on them a few times, and stuffed them into her mouth, happily eating the scallion sausages.

You entertained Spark, and you received a large jug of premium milk.

Miltank's Premium Milk: The highest quality milk, extremely nutritious. Young Pokémon can benefit from it to improve their health, but it can also cause more severe allergic reactions.

Heath was stunned. He really hadn't expected that this girl named Spark would give him a bottle of milk after he had entertained her.

Chapter 326 Competitors?

It's strange that a girl who is allergic to milk would give herself a bottle of milk. But this was given by a cheat code. Perhaps it's because this girl named Spark's family owns a farm?

Anyway, that's what Heath thought. But Spark's appetite was really good. Heath grilled a total of thirty-six skewers of onion sausage, and the girl ate them all. Heath was stunned. What happened to the saying that girls have small appetites? How come this girl has such a big appetite?

"This is so delicious! Boss, your cooking is absolutely amazing!" Spark patted her bulging belly with satisfaction; she really couldn't eat any more.

Heath chuckled and accepted Spark's praise. After all, his culinary skills were indeed excellent, a point Heath himself readily acknowledged. His cooking skills had always been consistently good, which was not surprising. If he were to receive some rewards in the future, his skills might even improve further, and making dishes that glowed wouldn't be a strange thing at all.

Spark left happily. Although she paid a lot of money, Spark was very satisfied with her meal, and Heath was also very satisfied. Spark even gave her extra pig intestines, so Heath could try some herself. However, looking at Farfetch'd who was secretly watching her, Heath smiled and took a few sausages for her Pokémon.

"A green onion?" Farfetch'd exclaimed happily as it took the green onion sausage, but then its gaze turned downwards. Heath looked over in confusion and saw some of Heath's cooking utensils there, including iron pots and pans of various sizes. Farfetch'd took out its own green onion and poked one of the small pots with it.

The next second, the pot shook violently, and then a very pleasant but seemingly screaming sound came from inside. Heath opened the pot lid in confusion and saw Mimikyu huddled inside, trembling.

"Mimiq? How did you get in here?" Heath was a little confused. He remembered Mimiq hiding under his food cart before; it was a timid little creature, but now...

They've all holed up in their own pot?

Mimikyu made a strange noise that Heath couldn't understand. He could only go to the living room and drag Zoroar out of the room where he was playing a game. Before dragging him out, Heath glanced at him and saw that Zoroar was playing a classic game from this world, Souls of Pokémon, which was a very difficult game.

"Hmm... Mimikyu said that last night it was ripped off by something, and then it saw something terrifying." Although Zorua was reluctant, under the threat of Heath's salary, he obediently did the translation.

Heath stroked his chin. What could be so terrifying? It couldn't possibly be seeing Kayako-sensei crawling out of the house, could it? But there are quite a few ghost movies in this world, probably because of the existence of ghost Pokémon.

However, after asking many times, Hiss found no results. Mimikyu couldn't explain what the thing was, only that it scared Pokémon. Mimikyu had a feeling that it was being targeted by the Grim Reaper.

Heath asked several more times but didn't get any new clues. He could only let Mimikyu go with Zoroa to rest, while Heath had to continue waiting here to entertain the guests.

However, after Spark left, Heath's food truck became quiet. He waited for most of the day but didn't see any customers. Just as Heath was about to close up shop, he saw two children who looked like they were reading walk past him.

"Hurry up! We'll have to wait in line if we're any later!" a boy urged his companion anxiously. His companion was already jogging, but still couldn't keep up.

"I know! I heard everyone went to that restaurant to eat today, let's hurry over too!" His companion wasn't angry, but quickened his pace and ran past Heath's food cart in no time. Heath looked at the two children with a puzzled expression. What was going on?

"Heath, you've met your match." Miss Joy walked out with a smile, still holding her phone in her hand, as if she had just been looking at it.

“Miss Joey? What do you mean?” Heath didn’t quite understand, but after Miss Joey handed him the phone, Heath understood what had happened.

In the Kanto region, there are several very famous chain stores, one of which is a restaurant chain called "Miracle Dream Restaurant". It is quite well-known in the catering industry. However, this store usually only opens in big cities. There is no branch of this store in Viridian City. It is said that the closest store is in Phantom City. As for the reason why it is not open in Viridian City, it seems that the founder does not like the humid weather in Viridian City.

Giving up a branch in a city because of one person's willfulness can be described as extremely willful. However, things changed after a new successor emerged.

Miracle Dream Restaurant has decided to open a store in every town in the Kanto region, and today is the opening day of Miracle Dream Restaurant in Pallet Town.

Pallet Town, being so small, had never experienced anything like this before. So after the restaurant opened, many people came to see it out of curiosity. No wonder Miss Joey said that Heath had met his match.

"Actually, I'm quite curious too. Miss Joey, aren't you going to eat?" Heath asked Joey. That restaurant was quite famous. Heath often saw its name when checking recipes and looking at various food recommendations.

However, this restaurant is also known as a luxury gourmet restaurant, and Heath was really curious to see just how luxurious it could be.

“I’m not going. I have to stay until Ah Xiao comes to relieve me.” Miss Joey smiled and shook her head. Heath nodded. In that case, there was no other way.

Heath tidied up his tables and chairs, then drove the food truck toward the miraculous dream restaurant. Soon Heath found the restaurant, right in the middle of Pallet Town, where a large number of people had gathered, making it seem unlike Pallet Town.

Heath had never seen so many people gathered in Pallet Town before. Sometimes when walking around Pallet Town, you would find yourself all alone or with just a few passersby. It was rare to see more than ten people walking together, unless it was during school hours.

"Is this the aristocratic restaurant?" When Heath parked his car, he heard some passersby exclaiming in amazement. Heath's curiosity grew even stronger. He got off the food truck with Farfetch'd and his Pokémon along, just in case the little guys caused trouble in the food truck. Only Mimikyu was asleep, so Heath didn't disturb it.

Chapter 327 Stringent Requirements

Strangely, the newly opened restaurant did not have the bustling crowd that Heath had expected. Instead, many people gathered around the restaurant, as if they dared not approach this dream restaurant called Miracle. Heath was a little puzzled. Didn't these people go to eat?

Restaurants are primarily places to eat, right? It's unlikely this miraculous dream restaurant offers something else, is it? Or is it not open yet?

However, Heath soon found out the reason: there was a large sign at the entrance of the restaurant with a lot of text, or rather, a lot of dining requirements.

Heath glanced at the list and saw over twenty dining requests, which was quite outrageous.

1. Those who are inappropriately dressed will not be served.

This requirement is normal, as many restaurants have it. On the one hand, it's to maintain the restaurant's image, and on the other hand, if some customers are dressed too sloppily, it will affect their mood while eating. It's like going to a Japanese restaurant for a company dinner in my past life, only to find out that you have to take off your shoes. After taking off your shoes, you are met with a strong smell of foot odor. Being surrounded by this smell makes it torture, let alone eating, even working.

So dressing appropriately is good for yourself and good for others. Of course you can not care about your image at home, but you can't do it in public. Heath can understand that.

2. This restaurant operates on a membership system and only provides services to members. Please make a reservation three days in advance if you wish to dine here.

Well, this requirement can be considered reasonable to some extent. After all, many restaurants do have these so-called membership systems, also known as invitation systems. The advantage of this is that the dining environment in the restaurant can be guaranteed, and every dish may be carefully prepared by the chef. This is very important, since no one knows exactly how the chef cooks.

Someone like Heath is very serious about cooking. No matter what the customer orders, even if it's just a jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe), Heath will try his best to make it perfect.

"But how do I apply for this membership? And three days in advance? I don't think I need to apply today, right?" Heath stroked his chin. He didn't know the membership price for this restaurant, but luckily he could check it online.

3. The minimum spend for a single visit to this store is 12,000 Alliance Coins. Membership will be cancelled for those who do not spend enough.

Heath's lips twitched. Good heavens, a single transaction costs 12,000 Alliance Coins, and if you don't spend enough, your membership will be canceled. What kind of restaurant is this? If Heath didn't know better, he would have thought he was seeing a list pulled out by a highway robber.

Heath frowned; that condescending tone was really unpleasant.

4. This restaurant does not allow non-members to dine in. Each person is limited to five dishes per visit.

There were many more, but Heath found them all incredibly frustrating. The rules were extremely detailed. Heath concluded that this restaurant was indeed a luxury establishment, as membership required a pre-deposit of 200,000 Alliance Coins, and each single purchase had to be at least 12,000 Alliance Coins. Moreover, the restaurant's menu was available online.

None of the dishes cost less than four figures; the cheapest steamed egg custard cost a full 3,200 Alliance Coins. Moreover, according to their requirements, each customer can only order a maximum of five dishes each time they come to eat, and five dishes must be totaled 12,000. However, judging from these prices, it is not difficult to reach that amount. Of course, if you only order one dish, you will not have enough to cover your expenses and your membership will be canceled.

Heath saw the two little boys running towards him, who were holding a hundred-coin Union note in their hands. They blushed and put the money away.

Heath also saw someone come out of the restaurant with a satisfied expression. Then, the person glanced arrogantly at the people gathered around the restaurant but dared not go in, smiled, and then got into a luxury car and left.

Hmm, it gives off a rather superior vibe. Luckily, this is the world of Pokémon, otherwise Heath would have thought he'd traveled into the world of One Piece and seen the Celestial Dragons.

"As expected of a luxury restaurant." Heath smiled. This kind of restaurant posed no threat to Heath at all. Heath also seemed to suddenly understand why the original founder did not open shops in small towns like Pallet Town. After all, there were probably very few people in Pallet Town who could afford this kind of consumption.

It's unclear what the new heir is thinking, but for Heath, this is a good thing. The more demanding the restaurant's requirements are, the fewer customers it might steal from Heath, and the less impact it will have on Heath's business.

Heath left satisfied. He had lost interest in the restaurant's food, since he couldn't afford its high prices. For Heath, a little over a thousand dollars was enough to live on for a month. If he were to be more frugal and not care about nutrition or taste, a few hundred dollars wouldn't be out of the question.

"I wonder how long this shop can last." Heath yawned; he had no interest in this kind of shop.
