Exchanging Bride

Private Dinners

Kiara can't wait to taste the expensive food here. But Kiara is more impatient to see how chef Jung cooks. Kiara who likes to cook would want to also make the same menu for him and Aldi later.

But it turned out that Kiara felt frustrated because she saw how beautiful dish after dish was served. Wild feel will not be able to imitate the dish that is so aesthetic appearance. Not to mention the taste that was so delicious but never had Kiara felt before.

The theme of chef Jung's restaurant is Korean food. But Kiara doesn't believe home cooking will be this delicious.

Chef Jung cooks with a female assistant chef. His skin was as pure white as that of chef Jung. But his eyes are not narrow like chef Jung or most other Chinese and Koreans.

"Does Miss Rara have anything that bothers her mind?" Assistant chef Jung who translated the conversation between them suddenly asked Kiara unexpectedly. Chef Jung and his assistant chef are still busy. So do not care too much about Kiara and Aldi who enjoy their leisure time.

"Yes. I'm curious about the lady cooking on the chef's side. Is he Korean like chef Jung?"

Aldi observed Kiara staring at chef Jung who was cooking.

"Our assistant chef is named Nanda." Answer the translator assistant.

"Oh yeah? From his name like an Indonesian." Sahut Kiara who suddenly looked happy.

"That's right, Miss Rara. Nanda is Indonesian."

Hearing his name called, this assistant chef named Nanda had already smiled at Kiara several times and looked at Kiara. Although assistant chef Nanda was not involved in the chat between the assistant translator and Kiara.

"This is our appetiteizer. It is called Samgyetang." Suddenly Chef Jung with his rather slow English made Everyone turn towards him.

The assistant translator did not forget to translate what chef Jung said in English. Although Kiara and Aldi understand what chef Jung said earlier, but both politely hear the translator's assistant convey everything that chef Jung said.

"This is our appetizer tonight. We usually call it Samgyetang." Chef Jung presented two wooden bowls to Aldi and Kiara.

"Samgyetang is Korean ginseng chicken soup. This soup contains young chickens in a whole state that is boiled with a small fire for 2-3 hours until tender. A serving of soup in front of Mr. Aldi and Miss Kiara is made from ginseng chicken that has been cut into small pieces. It looks like a mush. But in fact it is a whole sticky rice that was previously put into the stomach of a chicken that has been cleaned.

"In addition to ginseng, among the herbs that are often mixed are chestnut, spruce nuts, dried jujuba fruit, garlic, chives, and ginger. We also add medicinal plants such as gugija (goji), dangsam (root of Codonopsis pilosula), or danggwi (tang kuei or Angelica sinensis). The medicinal plants are mixed in whole (not cut into pieces) along with the sticky rice into the cleaned chicken stomach, so that the efficacy is maximum. Please taste." The translator assistant explained at length without translating anything that chef Jung said. It seems that the translator has memorized this menu.

Kiara impatiently spooned a full spoon into her mouth. Kiara seemed to enjoy her food to close her eyes occasionally when chewing.

While Aldi who saw a happy expression Kiara finally began to eat a portion of warm Samgyetang. It turned out that the delicious expression that appeared on Kiara's face was not made up. The food in front of him was delicious. There are a variety of different textures. From the start of spiced chicken, sticky sticky sticky but tender, there is also a slightly sour taste that gives a different taste in complementing the savory taste of chicken.

"You seem to like this menu." Aldi.

"Yes, so delicious, Al."

"You are absolutely right, Mr. Aldi. Have you ever eaten Samgyetang before?"

"not yet. It's just the texture is like kimchi made of white mustard." Kiara still spooned Samgyetang into her mouth while looking at Aldi's charming handsome face despite being seriously talking.

"Mr Aldi is very good at analysing. That's right, sir." The assistant translator was happy to praise Aldi.

By the time the two ate their meal, chef Jung and assistant chef Nanda had already returned to the kitchen table and prepared a second menu.

Kiara and Aldi enjoyed their relaxing evening while joking around waiting for the second menu. Within 30 minutes of waiting, Kiara was very happy. They talk about some light things like their favorite food and Kiara's cooking while still living in their little house first.

"Thank you for waiting for the second menu. The next menu we serve for Master and Miss is sotbap." Chef Jung, who had already put down a new pot with a lid, is now opening the lid. The hot money comes out with a delicious and appetizing aroma.

"Sotbap consists of various ingredients on top of rice and is cooked in a stone, metal, or steel pan. Sotbap is the kind of food that Koreans love all season."

"The sotbap in front of the master and the lady this time is rice with red snapper, shrimp and some steamed vegetables such as corn, carrots, sweet squash, bamboo shoots, chives, and asparagus."

"We'll help scoop her up to your plate. If the portion is still lacking, you and your lady will be happy to add more until you spend all the portions in this stone pan are exhausted."

"For his condiment we have kimchi and jeon. Kimchi we provide Napa kimchi made from Nappa or mustard white ingredients that are still intact. Jeon is a Korean pancake. Jeon is flour and egg based. The jeon you served this time was jeon kimchi and jeon vegetables." The translator assistant explained at length. Meanwhile, chef Jung and assistant chef Nanda begin to prepare a dessert.

Their Dessert is the most famous. Ice cream made by chef Jung. Also with the sprinkles of roses that have been frozen then kneaded until the ice cream is white has a red sprinkel that turns red rose petals.

Aldi and Kiara still enjoy sotbap with plenty of toppings. Because of eating rice, Kiara felt happy because she could be full.

But before going to the appetizer, it turns out that chef Jung presents one more menu.

"The third is koren barbeque." This time it is assistant chef Nanda who helps present and pronounce the sentence in Indonesian. Kiara was astonished by the Indonesian-speaking chef Nanda so well and fluently. Kiara is also amazed by the Korean barbeque that looks beautiful on her plate.
