The entire Uyuu restaurant has a typical Inazuma style of decoration.
On the right hand side of the entrance is an irregular bar counter, which looks a bit casual, but the raw materials pay more attention to the natural layering, giving people a sense of calm and simplicity.
After a long journey, it is also a good choice to have some snacks or desserts here in your spare time.
On the left is the tatami that is very common in Inazuma. As the leader of the Inazuma style, this kind of thing is very common in the private rooms and halls of restaurants.
Especially the Ukiyo-e style background wall, although the depiction is exaggerated, the visual impact will also give people a unique experience and make people's appetite open.
[A/N: Ukiyo-e style, meaning "pictures of the floating world," is a distinctive genre of Japanese woodblock prints and paintings, particularly popular during the Edo period (1603-1867). These prints often depicted scenes of everyday life, urban pleasures, and the transient nature of the world, reflecting the hedonistic lifestyle of the time. ]
"Welcome to the Uyuu Restaurant, if you want to order...ah, it's Kujou-sama."
The proprietress Okazaki Erika subconsciously greeted her when she heard the door of the store open.
After looking up, she realized that the person who came was an acquaintance.
"Thank you for your hard work. My friend and I just came here to have a simple meal."
The reason why this Uyuu restaurant business is so hot is all due to this person's cooking skills.
Her cooking skills can be said to be one of the best in Inazuma City.
"Please take a seat, both of you."
Okazaki Erika should be an acquaintance of Kujou Sara, but she was staring at Bai Luo the whole time.
Because in her impression, Kujou Sara came here either to ask her husband a question, or to have a meal with the big people in the family.
It is really rare to bring a man here alone.
So she subconsciously wanted to lead the two to the private room upstairs.
Because generally, couples who come here like to go to the private room on the second floor where they are not easily disturbed.
In this way, even if you do something you don't want others to know, it will be very convenient.
"No need to go to the second floor, we can just have a simple meal here."
Kujou Sara didn't see what Okazaki Erika meant, she just didn't want to occupy the resources of the store.
She pointed to the bar and walked over with Bai Luo.
"Hmm? Isn't this Lord Kujou?"
Inside the bar, a gray-haired old man was drinking by himself. After noticing Kujou Sara coming over, he took the initiative to greet her.
Judging from his slightly drunken look, he has already drunk a lot of wine.
"Senior Okazaki, it's better to drink less wine."
Being honored as a senior by Kujou Sara is enough to prove that Bai Luo's previous guess is correct.
This guy is either a former shogunate soldier or a veteran of the Tenryou Commission.
And looking at Kujou's slightly respectful expression, this guy's status is probably not low.
"With sake in hand, delicious food is always with you. How can I be worthy of this busy life without a glass?"
The old man named Okazaki Rikuto smiled freely, picked up the wine glass again, and drank a glass.
That is Inazuma's sake. If it was replaced with Snezhnaya Fire-Water... would he dare to drink like this?
"Who is this...?"
Soon, Okazaki Rikuto's eyes shifted to Bai Luo.
As mentioned before, this was also the first time he saw Kujou Sara come to the restaurant with a stranger of the opposite sex.
"Hello, boss, I am Sara's friend, my name is Bai Luo."
Without waiting for Kujou Sara to speak, Bai Luo began to greet the other party very familiarly.
"Friends?"
Okazaki Rikuto was stunned for a moment, and his eyes looking at the two of them became a little strange.
Because not many people dare to call Kujou Sara by name.
So far, the only ones who can call Sara so intimately are the General Raiden and Kujo Takayuki who adopted Kujo Sara.
Looking at Kujou Sara's reaction...she actually acquiesced to this young man named Bai Luo calling her that.
Okazaki Rikuto subconsciously looked at Okazaki Erika, who came to listen to gossip under the pretext of cleaning the table.
[What do you think? ]
As Okazaki Rikuto's wife, Okazaki Erika and her man have a perfect understanding.
So she received the other party's signal perfectly.
[I think there's something going on.]
With a blink, she sent such a signal.
"So what would you two like to eat? Almond tofu? Even if it's a Liyue dish, Erika is also very good at it."
From Bai Luo's name, Okazaki Rikuto could tell that he should be from Liyue.
He didn't want to drink the wine.
Because compared to watching the fun, that kind of sake with a very low alcohol content was already tasteless.
As expected, no matter which world it is, watching the fun is always the nature of human beings.
"Give me some tri-color dumplings."
Looking at Okazaki Rikuto, Kujou Sara said a little uncomfortably.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but there seems to be something wrong with Okazaki Senior in front of her.
But if she really wants to say what's wrong, she can't tell.
Is it an illusion?
"Three-color dango, right? Please wait a moment."
Tri-color dango can be said to be one of the special delicacies of Inazuma. When the general had not yet issued the Sakoku Decree, this snack was very popular among foreigners.
Its production method is very simple. Glutinous rice is kneaded into a dango shape with water and then steamed.
Then the colors of snapdragon and sakura blooms are used as embellishments, adding a lot of lively atmosphere to this monotonous and simple glutinous rice dango.
For snacks like this, they usually make them in advance.
If someone orders, just take it out and steam it and it can be served.
So it didn't take too long to wait. A plate of hot tri-color dango was brought to Bai Luo.
Bai Luo picked up a string and tried to take a bite.
Hmm... soft and glutinous but not sticky, but it has a chewy feeling.
It has a sweet but not greasy taste, but has a scent of sakura bloom.
When it is held in the mouth, the slippery taste reminds people of snapdragon at the first time.
It seemed as if the next moment this round dumpling would turn into a goldfish and swim in his mouth.
Bai Luo didn't like sweets, and saying that he wanted to eat was just an excuse.
But after really eating this thing, he actually liked it from the bottom of his heart.
"Would you like to try it?"
Bai Luo looked at the remaining two dumplings on the bamboo stick and gestured.
"Sorry, sweets can relax people physically and mentally. Once you eat them, it's easy to..."
"Fur loss?"
[A/N: Bai Luo really has the tendency to easily irritate people,even if subconsciously 😅]
Bai Luo subconsciously continued her words.
Speaking of which, there is indeed a saying that animals will lose hair if they eat too much sweets. Could it be that Tengu will also lose feathers because of this?
The answer to him was the murderous look of Kujou Sara.
At the same time, Okazaki Rikuto, who was eavesdropping on the side, also had a look of hatred for him.
How can you tease a girl like this?
"I will take care of the feathers carefully, and you don't need to worry about it. You just need to know that I don't like sweets."
Looking at the tri-color dumplings in Bai Luo's hand again, Kujou Sara's face was full of rejection.
But is Bai Luo the kind of person who would give up so easily?
Not really.
So...
"Oh, what a pity."
"If I don't like it, I don't like it, just like I don't like wearing colorful clothes. There's nothing to regret."
Kujou Sara thought that Bai Luo's pity meant that she didn't eat the tri-color dango.
"No, that's not what I meant."
After biting off another dango, Bai Luo said with a little regret: "You know, this is a snack that even the general loves very much. It's a pity for you not to try it, Sara."
