'Slurp'
"Delicious!!"
'Smack!'
"So good! Who knew rice could be cooked like this!!"
"How long has it been since my old bones have felt this sort of flavour in my mouth?"
"Maybe I should bring back a chef from the Bharatiya Empire to cook."
Southeast Asia has some of the most unique, rich, and delicious cuisines in the world. The statement is true no matter the past, present, or maybe even the future. But when the chefs of the Bharatiya Empire, more importantly, the chefs from Boukha Youdha Street, cooked various dishes for the Southeast Asian kings and rulers, they ate it with great relish, constantly licking their fingers.
It was something they had never expected, and the dishes came in so many varieties that they wondered if all of this came out of a single nation.
