Chapter 1866: The Octopus Tentacle Phenomenon
One could see all kinds of customers after they had served a huge number of them. Mag finally understood that.
Countless people had come and gone at the booth, so he had seen more weird occurrences in one morning than in the past six months.
On the side, Vivian and Luna had found a table, and spread all the dishes out on it.
“This octopus tentacle sashimi is so pretty. It’s shiny and transparent. You can’t even see that its original shape was a tentacle.” Vivian’s gaze was immediately attracted by that octopus tentacle sashimi. The thinly sliced octopus tentacle was placed in a wooden box in the shape of a snow lotus. It looked like an exquisite piece of art.
“Yes. Mr. Mag actually only spent a brief moment to cut the octopus tentacle into slices of such equal thickness, and plated them so beautifully.” Luna was also a little shocked.
“According to the rules of eating food with the lightest taste first, let’s try this octopus tentacle sashimi first.” Vivian opened the small box of sauce, and used a pair of chopsticks to dip a piece of octopus tentacle sashimi in the sauce before popping it into her mouth.
The crunchy octopus tentacle exploded in her mouth when she chewed on it. The exquisite umami flavor, without going through any cooking process, and only having a light sauce as a touch-up, wreaked havoc in her mouth.
There was a refreshing taste from the sea and a beautiful bouncy texture. Although there wasn’t any cooking done, it was an exquisite delicacy that was painstakingly sculpted by itself. It made one lost in the midst of it.
After a while, Vivian opened her eyes, looked at the sashimi, and marveled, “This is really indescribable.”
“Is it really so nice?” Luna picked up a slice of octopus tentacle smilingly. She actually was a little resistant to and afraid of uncooked meats. It always reminded her of fresh blood and tendons that one couldn’t chew through.
However, this octopus tentacle sashimi was really too beautiful. It was so thinly sliced that light could pass through it. She could see the delicate and unique jade-like lines on it. There wasn’t any seafood’s fishiness, and it instead had a graceful aroma.
She dipped a part of the sashimi in the sauce gently before feeding it into her mouth.
The octopus tentacle broke in half when she bit into it gently. A tinge of sweetness was released gently in the midst of the sauce’s saltiness. It was different from the sashimi that she had imagined. There was even a sweet aftertaste after she swallowed it. It made her want to pick up another slice again.
The two of them soon finished the plate of octopus sashimi.
Vivian looked at the empty plate, and lamented, “Such a delicious food is actually only supplied on the Delicacy Extravaganza for one day? Isn’t it such a waste?”
“Mr. Mag is still doing on-the-spot teaching now. If you want to eat it, you can learn how to make it, and then make it at home yourself.” Luna smiled and turned to look at the giant screen. It was showing Mag teaching how to slice an octopus tentacle into a plate of pretty-looking octopus sashimi.
“It’s too difficult. I think just learning to hold the chef’s knife is enough to put me off.” Vivian watched Mag sliced the octopus tentacle into thin slices and sighed. However, her gaze soon landed on Luna, and she expectantly said, “Luna, why don’t you learn it? You know how to cook. You just have to learn how to make the stir-fried octopus in XO sauce and octopus tentacle sashimi, and we can make it at home in the future.”
“Me?” Luna was a little hesitant. After seeing Mag’s serious and detailed teaching look on the giant screen, she inexplicably nodded.
“Then, let’s start eating the main course. Let’s try if this stir-fried octopus in XO sauce suits our taste buds.” Vivian’s target shifted to the stir-fried octopus in XO sauce at the side. Octopus tentacles were hidden among the bright-colored side dishes and thick sauce.
She picked up an octopus tentacle that was coated with the thick sauce over the bowl, and then fed it into her mouth.
Crunch!
The sauce exploded in her mouth as soon as she bit into the crunchy and tender octopus tentacle.
Rip!
A sound of cloth ripping was clearly heard.
Vivian’s collar actually ripped open.
She was helplessly immersed in the delicious impact brought upon by the scrumptiousness of the stir-fried octopus in XO sauce. The rich sauce and the octopus tentacle exploded in her mouth together, giving the hard-to-marinate octopus tentacle a soul.
The rich aroma of the sauce had a tinge of spiciness. There was also a warm sweetness if one savored it closely. It was perfectly mixed, making it irresistible.
The octopus tentacle’s texture was perfect. There was a tinge of crunchiness in the midst of the softness. The umami blended with the sauce perfectly.
The taste buds on her tongue had already gone into a revelry. That pleasant sensation made her eyebrows rise a little, and she couldn’t help but smile.
“This is a scrumptiousness that no woman can resist.” Vivian opened her eyes, wishing she could continue. Looking at Luna, who was using a small jacket to cover her bosom, she blushed, and softly said, “Did I rip again?”
Luna nodded slightly.
“Boss Mag is really bad. It’s so delicious that it made me rip…” Vivian quickly fastened her open collar under the small jacket’s coverage, but she didn’t fasten it too tightly this time. She left ample space so it wouldn’t be too awkward when she ate later.
Vivian placed the small jacket aside, and urged, “Try it too, Luna. I think this stir-fried octopus in XO sauce is even better than the stir-fried octopus tentacles.”
“I…” Luna looked at that stir-fried octopus in XO sauce with hesitation.
“It will be fine. Your clothes are loose. It won’t matter.” Vivian blinked. Luna was wearing the black down jacket that she gave to her. It was very loose, so it wouldn’t matter even if she got bigger.
Luna pondered after hearing that. Then, she also fed an octopus tentacle into her mouth.
“Mmm~”
The explosive taste wreaked havoc in her mouth. Although she had tried her best to suppress it, she still made a soft sound.
However, the stir-fried octopus in XO sauce’s taste was too aggressive. She was overcome and immersed in that scrumptious taste even before she could think carefully.
The octopus tentacle that she swallowed transformed into a warm current, and spread all over her body. Her body seemed to have received a comfortable massage and a baptism. She felt so comfortable that the tiredness of the past few days was greatly reduced.
Luna only opened her eyes with a blush after a while. She ate a small mouthful of rice, and then popped another piece of the octopus tentacle into her mouth again.
***
The Mamy Restaurant’s phenomenon, or perhaps it should be the octopus tentacle phenomenon, had become the most influential and biggest focus point at the Delicacy Extravaganza today.
The other vendors could only feel envy.
Of course, many vendors had already purchased a photostone to record the on-the-spot tutorial.
The octopus tentacle’s series was definitely going to appear on many restaurants’ menus in the future. They might even become the main selling point of the restaurants.

After the half-time break, the arena was repaired, and Amy and Jasper stepped into the final battle arena of the tournament under the audience’s expectant gaze.
