In Tokyo, I just want salted fish

Chapter 235 The Daily Life of Soho Coffee Shop
Soho coffee shop, Kai Uesugi, who had been busy for a long time, finally had time to stop and rest.

"Very good, because you have more and more guests."

Mr. Bryce said, pulling freshly baked cookies out of the oven, "How about this batch?"

"Why is it green?" Kaoru Uesugi carefully lifted a hot green cookie with his hand.

"Matcha!"

Mr. Bryce snapped his fingers with gloves on, "The quiet tea fragrance is as peaceful and relaxing as walking in the Lake District on weekends."

The Lake District refers to the Lake District National Park in the United Kingdom. It covers an area of ​​885 square miles and is full of lakes. The beautiful natural scenery makes it famous all over the world.

Hanamaru Yuki has always said that she wants to go here to sketch, but this place is still far away from London, and her hope will never come to fruition.

"There are also rose-flavored cookies."

Mr. Bryce pulled a plate of chocolate chip cookies out of the oven again.

These cookies are given when ordering coffee, 3 yuan a cup, and extra pennies.

Uesugi Kai has to try one or two pieces every time it comes out of the oven, but he feels that Mr. Bryce's technology does not need him, a layman, to evaluate it.

Eat a hot cookie, the flour is glutinous and fresh.

"What did Mr. Bryce do before?"

"Me? The horseman at the racecourse," Bryce said, closing the oven.

"Horse master?" Uesugi Kai didn't expect that this job should be to manage horses in the racecourse, and he would take out the horses for a walk when there is nothing to do.

"Surprised, isn't it?" Bryce smiled and took off his gloves. "Actually, I like animals very much. Horse riding is just one of my previous professions. I have worked in zoos, national parks, and aquariums."

"Speaking of which, I have been to China once before. I have worked as a volunteer and a panda breeder. Wait a minute, let me check."

Mr. Bryce, in his apron, began to pull out his phone and flip through his photo album.

Kaoru Uesugi leaned over curiously, and saw photos of him with many people, of various styles and races, with different backgrounds, such as the Pyramids, the Sydney Grand Theatre, the Clock Tower, and the Great Wall.

"Ha~ I found it!"

Mr. Bryce handed the mobile phone in front of Kai Uesugi.

He studied it carefully.

In the photo, a smiling Bryce is holding a red panda. Like the foreigners around him, he is wearing a green volunteer uniform with a panda logo.

The panda didn't seem to be very energetic, and took a nap lazily.

"It's also very interesting to say, the teacher there taught me how to use an apple to trade cubs with its mother. You know, the red panda needs artificial milk."

"I feel that Mr. Bryce's experience is extremely rich." Uesugi Kai said with a smile.

"I've said it before, life is romance."

Uesugi Kai used a bamboo basket to take out the cookies one by one from the baking tray, and the aroma of the cookies broke free from the kitchen and filled the entire coffee shop.

"Kai, you can learn how to make coffee so well, why don't you come with me and learn how to make desserts?"

"I can't learn this well." Uesugi Kai quickly shook his head and refused.

"Making desserts is the same as brewing coffee, but it's about patience and anticipation." Mr. Bryce tried to persuade him, because he found that he learned things really quickly, "Ms. Huahuo's desserts are worthy of praise."

"Mr. Bryce, I'm the one who turns chocolate into obsidian on Valentine's Day."

"Obsidian? That's an exaggeration."

Mr. Bryce seemed to want to teach him how to make desserts, so Uesugi had no choice but to change the subject:
"Sir, can you play the guitar?"

"Guitar?" said Mr. Bryce. "No, I only know the accordion, but if you want to learn, you can find Miss Anna. She's a famous guitarist in our street."

Boss Anna?
Kaoru Uesugi wrote it down.

The rest of the morning passed leisurely, and after eating the bento prepared by Hanabi at noon, Kai Uesugi began to prepare for work.

He quite likes this kind of life - standing in the coffee shop every day, waiting for Hanabi to finish class and leave school, waiting for her to open the door, waiting for her to come here with a smile and order a cup of coffee made by himself.

In the following time, he wiped the utensils himself while listening to the chat between her and his classmates.

Full of sweet everyday life.

Jingle~
doorbell.

"Welcome to the soho coffee shop." Kai Uesugi said in English to the two young women who walked in the door.

"Xiangying, is this the one?"

"That's right, that's right."

The woman in the pink skirt looked around, "The decoration is so stylish, and it's also very quiet."

Uesugi Kai soon saw the two of them walk in, handed out the price list, and said in Chinese:

"Please tell me what you need."

The Mandarin is very pure, and there is no taste of foreigners at all.

Chi Xiangying closed the price list, looked up with a smile and said, "Milk Mocha and Ice Cream Mousse."

"Yeah." Uesugi Kai was waiting for another woman in a pink skirt.

“Blue Mountains and Macarons.”

"no problem."

After notifying Mr. Bryce in the kitchen, Kai Uesugi took out the utensils and began to operate.

After Kaoru Uesugi came here, Mr. Bryce was in charge of desserts, and there were several other shop assistants in the past, but today is a holiday given to them by Miss Anna.

Because she took all of their rest days last two weekends.

Once Mr. Bryce is busy with work, his British blue shorthair will jump to rest on the bar and act as a lucky cat in the store in front of Kai Uesugi.

In fact, it is completely useful as a beckoning cat. When the two girls saw it, they pushed each other and took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

"Little handsome guy, can you add a WeChat account?" Chi Xiangying put her phone on the bar and smiled.

"I'm very sorry, I don't use WeChat."

The two girls glanced at each other, thinking that he was tactfully refusing.

"The name can always be said."

Uesugi Kai: "Uesugi Kai."

"Shangshan mask?"

"Up and down, the cedar of the cedar tree, and the 棹 is the di (di) of Di Yi next to the word wooden."

"Last name, a rare surname."

The fat British Shorthair cat wags its tail lazily on the bar, and it rarely meows.

Uesugi Kai didn't speak, the two young girls seemed to be here for him, they were chatting about his appearance in a very small voice while sitting at the bar.

"Where does the handsome guy go to school? We heard from British classmates that the coffee here is very good, and there is an Asian barista here."

Kai Uesugi's actual age is 16 years old, but he also looks like he is 20 or [-] years old, but he is a bit more delicate.

"Didn't go to school, just work as a barista here."

"Didn't go to school? The little handsome guy looks like he should be a junior."

"It's true in terms of age." Uesugi Kai poured the hot water in the pot onto the freshly ground coffee powder.
