“If the next dish is chawanmushi (Japanese steamed egg), I think I have something to say… or I’m not sure.”

“laugh…”

Chef Yoo Min-hyeok flinched slightly at his mother’s thoughtful words.

‘huh?’

I didn’t miss that scene. Because I was watching with my eyes on for the time of editing.

“Is the next dish chawanmushi?”

I quickly asked chef Yoo Min-hyeok.

“Yes. that’s right.”

“wow. Are you guessing that?”

The beggar asked in surprise.

Then the mother looked at Beom-soo and said.

“Actually, it is not something to do without guessing that Chawanmushi appears at the beginning of the sushi omakase. Chawanmushi is served as the first dish in over 80% of Omakase. But today, flatfish came out for the first time. That’s why I think it might come out a second time. And that chawanmushi probably has a different character from the ones that usually appear.”

“Ah yes.”

Bumsu said with a slightly overwhelmed expression.

Until a little while ago, she was a mother who tried not to appear in front of others as much as possible.

But suddenly, when I sat down at the sushi restaurant Tachi, my eyes changed a bit.

This is the mother who momentarily poured out criticism like a shotgun the other day.

I also saw that, so I thought of having my mother appear in it.

Beom-soo must have come to his senses just now.

The mother who has been awkwardly greeted and quietly followed here is not everything.

“Actually, it’s not surprising to think of Chawanmushi itself.”

Chef Yoo Min-hyeok opened his mouth.

“But it’s discerning to know that flatfish is followed by chawanmushi, which is made differently.”

“kid. Nothing great.”

Mom blushed.

“no. When Hyemin says that, I have a desire to take on a challenge! I paid attention to the chawanmushi, and it tastes good to serve. And honestly, I’m nervous too.”

Chef Yoo Min-hyeok also feels like he has reached his peak.

“good. It’s a YouTube angle.”

I muttered and put the flatfish in my mouth.

‘First of all, I can’t comment on it because it’s so delicious.’

Because I’ve never had a lot of sushi omakase.

If you want to put something properly evaluated in a video, you have to trust your mother.

When we all finished eating the flatfish, Chef Yoo Min-hyeok entered the auxiliary kitchen and brought out four pieces of chawanmushi.

“Originally, the assistant chef brings it, right? But today, you bring it yourself, right?”

Heeyeon asked in an excited tone.

“oh. You know. that’s right. I usually take what the assistant chef brings out and serve it. But today is a special day. hahahaha.”

Chef Yu Min-hyeok glanced at his mother while he was smiling.

“…”

Mom was looking at Chawanmushi with a thin smile.

“really. I got special treatment. It wasn’t enough that I was invited by chef Yoo Min-hyeok, so I went to a service that I don’t usually do! I’m really, really looking forward to today.”

“Uh, yes?”

Chef Yoo’s eyes widened as if he was surprised that Heeyeon’s tone was so unnatural.

“Never mind. He just talked to his viewers.”

Beomsu said as if it was annoying.

“Ah, ha ha! okay.”

These days, YouTubers specializing in sushi restaurants do not comment directly in the restaurant to avoid disputes with other customers.

Most of the time, I only take videos quietly and put comments through post-recording through editing.

So even Chef Yoo Min-hyeok, who has dealt with a lot of YouTubers, must be unfamiliar with Hee-yeon’s behavior.

“ah. sorry. We were the only guests, so I just wanted to put my voice in…”

When Heeyeon asked cautiously, Chef Yu smiled and shook his hand.

“Oh, yes! sure! As long as your companions are okay. hahahaha.”

“Today, there are not just one or two YouTubers. You will be out of your mind. hahahaha.”

When I said this with a smile, Heeyeon tilted her head without losing sight of it.

“huh? Not one or two? Aren’t you and me?”

“…”

In fact, there is one more in my head.

A video taken from my point of view, a video taken from Heeyeon’s point of view.

Because there are more videos taken from the mother’s point of view.

“It’s too much, hey. Beomsu is also a YouTuber.”

“ah. That’s it.”

I answered Heeyeon like this and waited for my mother’s reaction to Chawanmushi.

Of course, I didn’t forget to film the chawanmushi in a beautiful porcelain dish.

“uh. Aren’t you a chawanmushi that isn’t hot?”

Heeyeon was the first to speak.

“yes. It’s summer. Chawanmushi is originally served as the first course because it is a hot dish that has the effect of warming the frozen body. So I chilled it with chawanmushi for summer.”

“ah!”

After Hee-yeon admired it, she said to the small action camera placed in front of her.

“everyone! Did you hear? Cold chawanmushi! I’ll try it!”

“…”

Beomsu smiled bitterly at Heeyeon.

“why?”

Feeling Bum-soo’s gaze, Hee-yeon asked sharply.

Since it’s not a live broadcast anyway, it’s going to be edited and used, so if Heeyeon doesn’t interrupt instead of commenting, we can have a conversation without any problems.

“No, it’s because Yeon-nim, who is behind the wheel of P’s car, and Yeon-nim, who is sitting at the sushi restaurant Dachi, have very different personalities, so it’s amazing.”

“Ugh… I knew that. Don’t make unnecessary quibbles!”

Saying this, Hee-yeon tried to hit Beom-soo on the back, but endured it while looking at her mother.

Then, being conscious of the camera again, I carefully inserted the spoon into the chawanmushi.

“wow! I heard a lot of seafood in Chawanmushi! What is this… Abalone, and shrimp… and even flying fish roe!”

“That’s not a flying fish egg.”

Chef Yoo Min-hyeok said.

“oh. sure?”

“Could it be caviar?”

I opened my mouth. Come to think of it, I remembered what chef Yoo Min-hyeok said at the last invitation.

‘I joked about making sushi using caviar (sturgeon roe), foie gras (goose liver), and truffle (truffle mushrooms), but… can’t it?’

Did he really put his ambition of introducing the world’s top three delicacies into sushi?

“yes. that’s right. caviar. Sturgeon roe. hot hot.”

Chef Yoo Min-hyeok replied triumphantly.

“oh. Chawanmushi with caviar?”

Heeyeon was pleased and quickly put the chawanmushi in her mouth.

“What is caviar? Is it expensive?”

“Right now there is 10,000 won worth of caviar in it.”

Chef Yoo Min-hyeok’s answer was the most appropriate and easy-to-understand explanation.

“Yes? Not even half a teaspoon?”

The killer’s eyes widened.

“Then you’re saying that a bowl of chawanmushi alone costs well over 10,000 won…”

Beomsu mumbled this and then looked at me and shouted as if he suddenly remembered.

“Hyunjun! I think it suits the concept of ＜What no one else does＞ very well! Steamed eggs that cost more than 10,000 won per bowl! It’s about the size of a glass of water.”

“Now do you know? Sitting here talking to your heart’s content as if you had rented it out is something that no one can do.”

I answered.

And, one of my predictions was more accurate.

Now, this place is not just a celebration, but a place to introduce a new menu developed by Chef Yoo Min-hyeok over the course of a month.

Of course, strictly speaking, the target of the new menu launch is not me, but my mother.

“wow. Abalone, shrimp, everything is so bouncy. The texture is so good!”

Heeyeon, who chewed and swallowed the food, continued to admire.

There was a hint of happiness in her voice.

“yes. In fact, even jelly is more resilient when cold. To take advantage of that principle, I chilled the chawanmushi. Then, the eggs, abalone and shrimp become firm.”

“I see! You are very meticulous.”

Heeyeon took another spoonful and put it in her mouth.

“And do you feel a faint scent?”

“oh. You are sensitive. I added truffle oil drop by drop.”

“oh. Truffle oil?”

“yes. I bought the truffle myself and made it.”

“Haa… Beomsu.”

Heeyeon sighed and said.

“huh?”

“The fact that I bought the truffle myself and added the oil I made means that the price of this steamed egg jumped by more than 10,000 won.”

“what? Over 20,000 won? Only the material cost?”

“huh. Because of the cost of ingredients, it is not strange to receive 50,000 won when selling Chawanmushi. What we eat.”

“wow…”

Beomsu was also impressed and hurriedly put the chawanmushi into his mouth.

“Kill!”

“Quack.”

Beom-soo’s original reaction and Hee-yeon’s explanations harmonized with each other, so there was a strange charm.

“Well, how are you? Mr. Hyemin.”

And the time has come.

Cautiously, Chef Yu asked her mother.

“hmm…”

– gulp.

Chef Yu and I swallowed at the same time.

Because I was naturally nervous because of the video.

“It is very delicious. Caviar and truffles are included, so it is bound to be delicious. but…”

“but?”

Gulp again. saliva was swallowed

“I wonder if it was greed that I used caviar and truffle at the same time. Abalone and shrimp have a strong taste. It felt like the taste of caviar was covered up by their taste. I even thought that flying fish roe would have been better if caviar was going to play a supporting role.”

“…”

Chef Yu’s eyes widened.

“And, since truffle oil, which has a strong aroma, is mixed with it, caviar has become almost like a hidden object. Is this a taste that has lost its essence in the greed of putting caviar and truffle together?”

“ah…”

“And, the compatibility with flatfish earlier is a bit worrying. The fragrance and taste of the flounder, which had a fairly mild taste, became stronger. However, in order to maintain this flow next time, I will have to continue to go strong… Then the taste buds of the guests will be tired.”

“…”

Beomsu and Heeyeon were looking at their mother with dumbfounded expressions.

“Quack. Are you sure about the character?”

I asked Heeyeon in a low voice.

“uh. Your mother… she’s amazing. In many ways.”

“huh. hahahaha.”

In this way, Heeyeon and her mother talked about their feelings and the course proceeded.

Chef Yoo Min-hyeok went back and forth between heaven and hell whenever Hee-yeon and her mother alternately teased each other.

As expected, Chef Yoo Min-hyeok served sushi topped with foie gras, caviar, and truffle as the main character.

Heeyeon’s evaluation of it.

“wow. Wouldn’t you dare to imagine such a combination of dreams? To eat something like this! I’m glad I was born!”

mother’s evaluation.

“also. This is also full of greed. It looks like you used a goose instead of the popular duck these days for foie gras? Goose liver is of a higher quality, but the flavor is stronger. Duck would have been better to match the other ingredients. Also, foie gras, an animal ingredient, stands out too much among seafood. The idea is good, but I think the balance needs to be recalculated. And I think critics will hate it because this only seems to pursue the symbolism of sharing the three delicacies.”

It is truly mild, spicy.

Two videos that will be uploaded to our channel with a perfect concept, it is complete.

“huh? What is this voice?”

Koh Hyeon-wook and Ko Hyeon-seok, who were monitoring the video of ＜Somebody Don’t Do＞ with Hyeon-min, looked at each other’s faces.

“Do you know this voice?”

“Don’t you remember when you were young? You are Jang Hyun-joon’s mother. Is this crazy bastard trying to include his mother?”

Go Hyun-seok showed his teeth.

“her. You can only hear your voice, do you know that?”

“Since you’re a movie star who practiced vocalization hard, your voice doesn’t go anywhere. But is this insane, brother?”

Ko Hyeon-seok looked at Ko Hyeon-wook and asked.

“…”

“You crazy bastard. Revealing your mother on YouTube? I thought you had some brains, so you put out a self-destructing card?”

Go Hyun-seok muttered.

“…”

A heavy silence fell.
