Welsh stew, shepherd's pie, French fries, beef brisket tomato and potato soup, smoked turkey, steak and kidney pie...

Cypher looked at the specialty dishes before him. They looked decent enough, but the taste was indescribable.

He picked up his knife and fork, then put them down. Picked them up again, then put them down again... In the end, he chose fried steak and French fries to fill his stomach.

The steak was tender, and blood burst into his mouth with every bite. The fries were hard, crunching loudly between his teeth.

As for the rest, all he could say was, heh.

Traditional British cuisine was known for being simple and retaining the original flavors of the ingredients. Its cooking methods were usually limited to roasting and boiling, with few seasonings used, relying mainly on the ingredients' natural taste.

For example, steak and kidney pie was a traditional dish made primarily with steak and kidneys. The cooked steak and kidneys were usually mixed with rich gravy before being baked inside a pie crust. It was said to have a complex texture and a fragrant aroma, making it a unique delicacy.

Shepherd's pie was a dish made primarily with lamb. The cooked lamb was usually mixed with vegetables, then covered with a layer of mashed potatoes and baked. Shepherd's pie was rich in flavor and highly nutritious, another delicious dish.

As for the rest, they were more or less the same—soup made from some unknown jelly-like fruit topped with something resembling frog eggs, a bright blue sauce covering it, and a toad whose thigh still twitched...

In short, it was truly hard to swallow.

"Hey! Kebi Nuer!" A blond-haired young wizard with somewhat delicate features and elegant manners took the initiative to speak to Cypher, who was eating with a furrowed brow.
