"Welcome to come again next time." The owner of the Heshi Pavilion smiled and saw the customers away. Then he looked at the almost full store, narrowing his eyes and smiling.

Before, he was worried about the bleak business of Heshiting, and looked worried. He didn't dare to breathe loudly in the famous chain restaurants nearby, for fear that the diners of his family would be trapped by these chain restaurants.

In addition, he only has the profit of opening a store every day. It costs money to purchase goods, and keeping people in the store requires labor costs... This made him almost not persist at the beginning and directly chose to give up.

But now it's different.

The owner of the Heshi Pavilion sighed inexplicably when he looked at the sign hanging.

那是去年东野司送给他的签名牌,当初和食亭老板也只是觉得东野司的字写得确实很漂亮,很难得,所以就把他这块小牌子留下来了.

As a result, no one expected that this small signature brand and the reputation of the food pavilion would be quickly spread throughout Toyoshima District.

——The original author of "The Lonely Foodie" has been here once!

This similar rumor surprised the owner of the Heshiting Pavilion, and even a little surprised. Is the young man brought by Konomiya Lianghua so famous? Is he a famous food critic?

‘Lonely Foodie’, is this Higashinoji’s name? At first he thought it was Konoe Ryoka who brought her boyfriend to eat and drink...

He read a lot of magazines about food, but couldn't find anything. Not to mention Higashinoji, there was not even a food critic named Higashino.

This made the boss of Heshiting completely confused. It was not until his daughter saw that he had been looking for something and answered that the boss of Heshiting knew why he could not find the trace of this "Tainoji"-

"Tainoji? Isn't that a cartoonist? The one who's very popular recently."

"cartoonist?"

A comic drawing?

The owner of Heshiting was really puzzled.

He did hear Higashi mention his identity as a manga, but... what does a manga author have to do with his store? He is not a famous critic who is engaged in diet.

For this reason, he also made a special trip to read Higashinoji's comic "The Lonely Foodie", and then-

“Is this what I did?”

"Does my making look so delicate? Does it look so delicious? Gudu..."

As the boss of Heshiting looked at it, he cooked a meal for himself.

The food in the comics is very realistic and looks like a family-like and delicate feeling, which makes him a little hungry as a shop owner.

And the owner of Heshiting also discovered it.

Higashinoji has drawn a lot of real-life pictures. As long as people who have a little understanding of Sakaya Street in Toshima District can basically tell where it is at a glance.

Many Higashinoji's comic fans came to the door with this.

This group of fans became new diners, and they had a second tube of blood for the Heshiting, who could not hold on, so that they could continue to develop. The first few days when "The Lonely Foodie" even had a grand occasion of queuing up to the door.

As for people, that's how it is.

Seeing that this store is so good business, others will naturally think that this store should indeed taste good, so they will take the initiative to follow the trend.

As time passed, the followers dispersed, because the boss of the Heshi Pavilion was indeed very good, and new diners gradually became old diners... This is also an important reason why the Heshi Pavilion is still full of seats.

But the owner of Heshiting knew.

It was Higashinoji's "Lonely Foodie" that brought new diners, and it was not an exaggeration to say that Higashinoji brought up this store that he couldn't hold on. Until today, there are still tourists who came to eat with the food court after watching "Lonely Foodie".

This also shows the toxicity of "The Lonely Foodie".

Unfortunately, Higashinoji has never been to the Hoshi Ting again since that time, which made the Hoshi Ting owner want to say thank you, but he didn't even have the chance to entertain himself... It can be considered a big heart disease of the boss.

So he made a plastic layer and wrapped Hitomiji's signature and hung it next to the menu, which was to express his gratitude to Hitomiji.

Pity.

What a pity.

The owner of the Weshitiao sighed secretly at Higashinoji's signature brand, then turned his head and asked his daughter to help him entertain him.

"Aren't the store full now?" He Shiting's daughter couldn't help but complain: "You still need to receive it?"

"The guests who came in asked them to wait a moment, or asked them to eat in other restaurants in a polite manner, in short, they should not be rude." The owner of the Heshiting Pavilion instructed, and then added with a little confidence: "Do you understand?"

After finally getting out of the predicament, he cared very much about the customers' ideas.

"knew."

Seeing that his daughter stood up unwillingly and prepared for reception, the owner of the Heshiting next to her couldn't help but shake her head and lowered her head to continue making the dishes.

But before he could put his hand next to the kitchen knife, he heard a voice from his daughter at the door: "Sorry, customer, this store is currently full..."

Oh? New customers are coming so soon?

The owner of Heshiting looked up at the direction of his daughter, wanting to see if she politely persuaded the guests to leave.

"Is that true?" The person who came was a young man with a woman in professional clothes beside him. At this time, he was smiling and talking to the professional women around him: "The business here is so good... Editor Hosokawa, it seems we have to come again next time."

As he said, the young man and the working woman were planning to leave.

Wait a moment...

That's not... Higashinoshi?!

"Wait a moment!"

The owner of Heshiting called out directly, which scared the other guests. Then he walked out of the bar, hurried to the door, and stopped again: "Please wait a moment, guest."

"Hey? But the waiter in your store asked me just now..." Higashinoji was also confused by this fuss and the owner of Shiting - wasn't your waiter in the store asking me to wait for a while or go to another place to have a meal?

Why did you suddenly stop me?

"Nothing happened." The owner of Heshiting smiled at Higashinoji happily, then looked at his daughter with a stern face: "How beautiful, how did I tell you just now? Didn't I tell you that the guest would invite him to the seat inside us when he came? What's wrong with you? He also drove the guest out?"

"Ah?" The girl, who is called Shimi, wearing a hidden blue turban and wearing an apron, wide eyes wide and her face is inexplicably: "Dad, you obviously..."

"Don't talk back. If you talk back, you will ask you to help next to the bar." The owner of Heshiting stared at him.

"...Oh." The girl lowered her head and stopped talking back.

The bar is really busy, and many people have to serve food such as roasted bird skewers during this period. She would rather stand at the door to welcome guests than be full of barbecue.

But she was really inexplicable.

When did I have more elegant seats in my house? Isn’t it the tables they use when they eat? The environment is really good, with tatami and seat cushions, which are much more spacious than outside.

But when did our own meal place become a seat?

She really couldn't understand.

After criticizing his daughter for a while, the owner of the Heshitiao smiled again and said to Higashinoji: "Please come in and go inside."

"... Since there is a seat, I'm not polite." Higashinoji also smiled and nodded, and said to Hosokawa Koharu beside him: "Let's go, Hosokawa Editor."

"Okay." Although Hosokawa Koharu was strange to the overly enthusiastic attitude towards the owner, he still nodded.

Seeing Higashinoji and Hosokawa Koharu entered the interior, the owner returned to work and directed his daughter from time to time to ask what Higashinoji and Hosokawa Koharu were needed.

What menus, hot towels and other things can be said to be very attentive.

The regular customer next to him also smiled and asked, "General, do you have any elegant seats here? I have never heard of them. Next time I come with my colleagues and I want a elegant seat."

General, this mainly means "an important person in a certain group" in Japanese, so in Japanese spoken language, it also means restaurant chef.

"This probably won't work." The owner of the Heshi Pavilion replied with a smile: "The elegant seats inside are only open today."

Indeed, this is a privilege.

I finally saw Higashinoji once, so I had to treat him well no matter what.

So something that made Higashinoshi inexplicable happen.

At first, he felt that the waiter came very frequently, the reception was very friendly and the service was attentive, so he almost didn't ask if he wanted to feed the things into his mouth.

When he arrived at the back, the food ordered by Higashinoji came up. Higashinoji was also about to eat it, but he looked at the dishes and felt something was wrong.

Others are small and exquisite, usually a dish that can be solved with a small bowl. Why did he suddenly put a small bucket on him?

"What's the situation?" Higashinoji pointed at Xiaotuo and asked.

"Ah...that...that's actually the tableware used by our store. Please rest assured that you won't charge more customers."

The waiter called Shimiya answered.

"...What about this dish? I don't remember ordering it?" Higashinoji pointed to the garlic tenderloin on the other side. This dish can be used as a staple food or a side dish. It tastes quite good, but he has never ordered it.

"This is a gift from our store. Today, our store just happens to organize an event."

"...Is that true?" Higashinoji raised his eyebrows and wondered if he had gone to the wrong store.

Could it be that I met a black shop where you didn’t order anything but the owner suddenly brought you a lot of vegetables, and no matter whether you finished eating or not, they would call for a sky-high price to pay.

But it's not right.

The brand outside is indeed the brand of Heshi Pavilion?

Did I remember it wrong? But my signature is still outside.

The more I thought about it, the more I couldn't understand it.

It's OK to have something wrong, but it's a bit strange if something wrong everywhere.
