Running a Restaurant with a Tentacle Monster [Across the Planes]

[I still don't think I'm very good at writing food stories, and writing this has been a bit painful. Sorry, this story is on hiatus.]

Yun Ni became bound to an interdimensional restaurant.

She was poor and couldn't afford to hire anyone, so for the time being she had to do everything herself: buy, wash, chop, and prepare ingredients, wash dishes, wipe tables, mop floors, and decorate...

She really needed a Snail Girl.

No, ten of them!

At last, she saved enough money to hire an employee.

The new employee was handsome and easy on the eyes. More importantly, he was hardworking and capable, worth ten people on his own.

Her dream Snail Girl!

Just as she was congratulating herself on hiring such an excellent employee,

the man smiled gently. "Boss, I can be worth ten people in other areas, too."

In an instant, numerous soft, emerald-green willow branches bound her hands and feet and coiled around her waist.

Yun Ni: ...???

[Interstellar Chinese Restaurant]

The five major military academies of the Empire held a joint exercise on a remote planet.

The Blue Swamp Military Academy team was at the bottom of the rankings, on the verge of elimination.

Desperate to stay alive, they discovered a Chinese restaurant in this godforsaken place.

They hid in the restaurant, eating until their mouths were full of delicious flavors, while watching the other academies fight to the death.

Then the other four major academies followed the irresistible aroma and found their way there too.

The team, which had been ready to give up, slammed the table and stood up. "Damn it, you're trying to steal our food? We'll fight you for it!"

We'll fight to protect the best braised pork knuckle in the whole universe!!!

[Infinite-Flow Dessert Shop]

Players noticed that there were fewer high-level monsters in the dungeons lately.

Deep inside the dungeons, the warm, tempting scent of baked goods wafted out of a dessert shop late at night.

A bold player went to investigate, then came running back in a panic. "All the customers in the dessert shop are high-level monsters with livid faces and bloody fangs!"

Later players: To hell with those high-level monsters!

Don't you dare steal the last egg yolk pastry from me!!!

[Apocalypse Bubble Tea Shop]

A girl infected with the zombie virus and abandoned by her teammates discovered a newly opened bubble tea shop on a long-deserted, desolate commercial street.

She took a sip of bubble tea without expecting much.

Then...

Her zombie virus miraculously disappeared!

[Song Dynasty Cat Cafe]

Stray cats rescued from the apocalypse eat well and drink well in the Song Dynasty, then lie flat and let people pet them.

[Extreme-Cold Hot Pot Restaurant]

A steaming hot pot restaurant on an ice-covered planet.

[Western Fantasy Snack Street]

A witch took a bite of stinky tofu.

She was overwhelmed by an intense, indescribable flavor.

The witch's dark magic grew stronger!
