Chapter 192 Leaving The Inner City

The food once again did not fail to satisfy Michael.

"It tastes great," he murmured, savoring the flavors, "but not better than what I had at the Town Mayor's place."

He didn't find this surprising. 

The chef at the Mayor's residence was undoubtedly skilled, but this establishment was designed specifically for serving food. 

While both prepared meals, their purposes were fundamentally different.

One crafted dishes tailored to an employer's tastes, while the other focused on efficiency and service for a wider audience. 

The distinction might seem subtle, but it made all the difference.

Of course, that wasn't to say a restaurant couldn't serve exceptional food. 

However, the Mayor's chef likely had more time and freedom to perfect each dish, unlike the cooks here, who probably worked in a structured, step-by-step process divided among multiple hands.
