Chapter 954
Alola, Melemele Island, Ena Restaurant!
This restaurant is owned by Mao's family, and today she warmly invited everyone to her home to taste the new dishes she has carefully developed.
It has been a while since they came to the Alola region, and Xiaozhi and Latias have visited Mao's restaurant many times. The dishes here are unique and memorable. Just in time for dinner, Xiaozhi gladly accepted Mao's invitation and brought Latias with him.
Latias was full of curiosity about the new dishes, and couldn't wait to get into the kitchen and asked to help. Pikachu and the others played with Liliae and their Pokémon.
Mamane rubbed her stomach, her face full of anticipation: "I'm really looking forward to it. I wonder what kind of delicious food will be served this time?"
Just then, Mao came out of the kitchen and said to everyone with a smile: "Everyone, thank you for coming here today. It will take some time before the dishes are served. Please wait patiently for a while!"
Mamane held her stomach, which had already started to growl non-stop: "I didn't even have lunch, and now I'm so hungry..."
Tian Zhuzhu jumped onto the table carefully with a glass of water. Xiaozhi quickly reached out to take it and said with a smile: "Thank you, Tian Zhuzhu!"
Lilia, who was sitting next to Xiaozhi, shrank back slightly when Tian Zhuzhu approached, but still tried to praise: "You...you are really amazing for being able to help the store."
Hearing the compliment, Tian Zhuzhu seemed very happy, and the fruity fragrance emanating from her body became stronger. At this moment, the Owl in Xiaozhi's backpack was attracted by the fruity fragrance, and immediately woke up, flapping its wings excitedly and swooping over.
Seeing this, Tian Zhuzhu mercilessly rotated the leaves above his head, trying to knock it away. However, after Xiaozhi's careful training, the strength of the Owl has been improved in all aspects. It flexibly turned around and dodged easily, then flapped its wings and landed on Xiaozhi's shoulder.
Seeing that his attack failed, Tian Zhuzhu seemed a little angry and turned and ran into the kitchen. At this time, a mellow and rich aroma came from the kitchen, which made people salivate. This should be the new dish that Mao was making.
Just smelling this aroma, everyone seemed to be able to imagine how delicious this new dish is. The already hungry people became more and more excited and looked towards the direction of the kitchen.
However, just as the dish was about to be brought out of the kitchen, Mao's excited voice suddenly came: "Latias, please."
Before the words fell, a dazzling electric light flashed in the kitchen, and this sudden scene really scared everyone.
Mao took the lead in holding the stew pot and walked out of the kitchen. Her whole body was like being struck by lightning and became charred. "Clang clang, I'm ready for the Phantom Alola Cream Stew!"
From the appearance and smell, this "Phantom Alola Cream Stew" seems to be quite delicious, and everyone can't help but want to try it. However, when they put the stew into their mouths, they unexpectedly felt a strong electric current running around in their mouths, which brought a paralyzing effect.
"This stew is actually leaking electricity?!"
At the same time, when Xiaozhi and others were tasting the leaking stew, Latias also brought a large plate of Pokémon food mixed with various tree fruits from the kitchen for Pikachu and others.
Unlike the stew just now, these Pokémon foods did not add anything strange, and Pikachu and the others ate them with relish and were very satisfied.
Faced with such a small electric current, Xiaozhi was naturally not afraid with his strong physical fitness. After all, his conductivity had already reached its peak in the previous stage.
If Xiaozhi guessed correctly, this stew should have been added with the weak current released by Latias.
However, Liliae and several others could not withstand such an electric shock. Their expressions were distorted and they fell headfirst on the table.
Kachi was stronger and first raised his head and asked, "What exactly is this dish?"
Mao didn't seem to notice the abnormality of his companions, but looked proud, not to mention that Mamane had already started to eat voraciously, obviously hungry.
"Isn't the sudden sizzling feeling addictive? This wonderful taste is the unique feature of our Fantasy Alola Cream Stew!" Obviously, Mao has firmly believed that her new dish has been a success.
"It's not just a sizzle, it's a crackle..." Liliae also raised her head with difficulty, her whole body trembling with numbness, "It feels like being hit by 100,000 volts." Her voice was a little trembling, and it was obvious that she was frightened by the electric shock just now."Could it be?" Kachi finally guessed what happened. He widened his eyes and looked at the stew in front of him in disbelief.
Obviously Latias had noticed the abnormality. He scratched his head awkwardly and explained with a hint of apology: "It's not as exaggerated as 100,000 volts. At most, it's just the amount of electromagnetic waves."
"It seems a bit too exciting to end with electromagnetic waves..." Mao finally discovered this abnormality under the telepathic reminder of Latias.
As time went by, Liliae, Kachi and others gradually recovered from the paralysis, but except for Mamane, everyone else kept a distance from this dish.
"By the way, what is the Phantom Alola Cream Stew?" Liliae looked at the golden electric light flashing in the stew and asked curiously.
Just when Mao was about to reply, the owner and chef of this Eina restaurant, Mao's father, came back with a basket of vegetables. As soon as he entered the door, he saw everyone sitting around the dining table.
As a well-mannered young lady, Lillie stood up quickly and said with a smile: "Hello, uncle, we are here to bother you!"
Sui Lian and Mao are best friends who grew up together. She is very familiar with Mao's family, so she was not restrained, but curiously asked: "Mao's father, what is the Fantasy Alola Cream Stew?"
Mao's father was stunned for a moment, then smiled and replied: "Why do you suddenly ask this? Speaking of this dish, a long time ago, whenever there was a temple fair or festival, people would make this dish! It has a rich and unique taste, which makes people linger."
"Unfortunately, as time goes by, this tradition has gradually been forgotten, and now few people know the existence of this dish."
Obviously this is a very meaningful dish, but it has gradually been lost due to the changes of the times. Lillie and the others even heard the name of this dish for the first time.
"In that case, Mao, how did you make this cream stew?" Lillie was the first to react and asked.
Mao took out a handwritten recipe with a smile, "This is the recipe for Alola Cream Stew, a gift from my brother."
It turned out that her brother went on a trip to learn cooking, and accidentally got the recipe of the long-lost Alola Cream from an old document during the trip, so he copied it down and gave it to Mao.
"According to the recipe, in order to successfully make Alola Cream Stew, golden nectar is definitely needed. It is said that this is a very important ingredient that can make the dish have a sizzling taste." Mao explained the key problem of this dish at the moment.
However, now is not the honey-producing season, and this golden nectar is very difficult to get.
So after thinking about it, Mao thought of asking Latias to inject electromagnetic waves into the stew, but this was too exciting, and Liliae and the others didn't dare to enjoy it at all.
"I was planning to make this dish and make it the signature dish of our Ena Restaurant..." Mao was immediately discouraged, his face full of disappointment, today's attempt was considered a failure.
Just then, Xiaozhi stood up and patted Mao's shoulder with a smile, "Don't be discouraged, although the golden nectar is not produced in season, it cannot be said that there is no golden nectar at all, there are always exceptions!"
Rotom also flew over at this time and showed the searched information to everyone, "The Flower Dance Bird of the Pa Zi Pa Zi style likes to use golden nectar Lotom very much!"
"So as long as you find the Flower Dance Bird, there is a great possibility of finding golden nectar." Xiaozhi smiled, "And even if you can't find it, I have another way."
Mao's eyes lit up when he heard it, "Really? Thank you, Xiaozhi!"
Unfortunately, the others had plans tomorrow and couldn't accompany Mao to find it, so only Xiaozhi and Mao went to find it.
"Another bowl!" Mamane had already eaten up all the stew in the bowl. "It's delicious. The crackling taste is really exciting!"
With his support, Mao's confidence was doubled.
However, in order to compensate everyone, Mao's father also cooked a table of dishes for everyone's dinner.
