As soon as Elena stepped foot inside the "Dance of the Sea Fairy", a group of waitresses dressed with perfectly wore uniform greeted her.

"Welcome, Gourmet Tycoon Elena sama."

It turned out that after becoming a Gourmet Tycoon, Elena's fame was on a completely different level. So everyone was keeping an eye on her movement. That was why as soon as she entered this famous restaurant, she was given a royal welcome. It looked like Ayase's little sweet cafe would also get a good amount of business very soon because of Elena's influence.

Elena did not mind the extra attention that came with this benefit at all and followed the waitresses to a private room to have her meal. Normally she would need to participate in a trial to prove herself worthy of the cooking of a King of Flavours, but now Elena could skip that whole step with her new position.

But the trials she had accepted so far were something she really enjoyed. For the first trial, the tough battle really added extra flavour to her meat. The second trial also gave Elena an opportunity to taste super good ramen. The trial in this place was also a fun one, so Elena did not want to miss it.

When the waitresses heard this, they were a little surprised but did not mind this at all. A Gourmet Tycoon was a celebrity here and the waitresses were ready to fulfil any wish they had.

...

Elena's eyes were covered with a magic item that blocked her view completely. This magic item also restricted her skills and abilities related to detection. It was quite a powerful magic item.

Obviously it had no effect on Elena but for the trial's sake, she made sure that she was not able to see or sense anything around her. After that a large table filled with various kinds of food was brought before her. The tantalizing smell of the food assaulted her nose.

Then one of the waitresses' took a spoon and picked up some fish soup. Then she brought that spoon to Elena's lips. This was not this waitresses' first time doing something like this as they were responsible for feeding all the trial takers like this. But still she got a bit nervous with how beautiful Elena actually was. So her hand shook a little when she brought the soup toward Elena's beautiful lips.

But as a proud professional waitress, she managed to steady herself and did not drop anything. Elena drank the soup presented to her and tasted it with a blissful expression on her face. All the waitresses present there got enraptured by Elena after seeing this.

After she was done enjoying the soup, Elena started to declare the ingredients used to make this. Normally just listing a few of the main ingredients was enough to pass but Elena ended up mentioning all the needed ingredients and even the cooking process a bit.

The chef who had made this dish was also present here and was astonished to see Elena describing everything so perfectly. But then he remembered the rumours that said that this beautiful lady had even lectured one of the Kings of Flavours about cooking. If that was really true then her being able to perfectly find the ingredients and the cooking process would not be very unnatural.

Just like that, the waitresses took turns to feed Elena and she guessed all the ingredients used to make them just through taste and smell. It was a fun experience for Elena who actually had to try a little bit harder for this game without using her special skills. So overall, it was a very fun experience for her.

...

With her performance, Elena not only successfully passed the trial here, she was also the best performer so far. Soon it was time for Elena to get her prize, which was the dishes made by the head chef here.

As Elena was waiting for the dishes to arrive, a energetic looking young women with her red hair tied in a bun came to talk with her. She introduced herself as Panthia, the owner of this restaurant.

Panthia was a very cheerful girl and she became good friends with Elena very soon. Even though she was very capable, it was her first time doing business in such a large scale. So she was always very stressed.

For that reason, Elena made her to relax with few fun topics of conversation and this in turn made Panthia to open her heart to her.

Panthia was always very fond of her father's cooking. She had never eaten anything better than that in her life. But her father was not a professional cook and cooking was just a hobby of his.

But after an accident, her father, Huther got badly hurt in his legs and was not able to work his previous job anymore. This sudden event left him and his family with a lack of funds. So Huther was in the need of a way to start earning money.

That was exactly the time when Panthia encouraged him to open his own restaurant. She was confident that her father's food was the best and the whole world would also came to know it. This assumption turned out to be true as just after opening their restaurant for a month, they start to get customers from far away who only came to their city to taste his cooking.

Just like that, suddenly Huther had went from being a poor injured man to being one of the best and richest chef in Valhalla. But he himself was a simple man and was useless in anything that needed him to use his brain. That was why it was Panthia who took on all the responsibility related to the management of the restaurant.

While talking with her, Elena started to give her a few simple advices that Panthia really appreciated a lot. Even though she was very capable and was doing perfectly fine, she was still a little inexperienced in this field. That was why she was extremely glad with the advices that Elena provided.

As both of the new friends were still talking, Elena's food finally arrived. Unlike the other kings of Flavours, Huther did not like to show his face around too much. He was also very nervous around high profile people. He would be happy to learn about the opinion of the eater from his daughter's mouth and he himself never came to observe or talk with his customers.

The food was, as expected, amazing. From what Elena had observed, it looked like Huther was extremely experienced handling ingredients from the sea. Panthia told her that Huther mainly worked as an adventurer who collected ingredients from sea before his injury and had managed to become an expert in everything related to it.

As Elena was about to leave, Panthia invite her for a family dinner with her father, mother and little sister. Elena gladly accepted this and Panthia told her that her father was going a cook a secret dish that he did not serve in the restaurant and made just for his friends and family. Elena was happy to know that she would be able to continue eating more awesome sea food.

Then after leaving the Dance of the Sea Fairy, Elena again went back to the little sweet cafe to finalize the business deal.
