After that, dishes were carried in and laid out on the table.

“Now, this one is the pope-style paeja. Doesn’t it look great?” Eru said, introducing the dish to them proudly. It was a round, shallow frying pan filled with rice, meat, fish, and vegetables.

I knew it. This is the “paella” I’m familiar with.

Rio looked at the pope-style paeja and smiled happily. Indeed, it was extremely similar to the Spanish dish paella from Earth. Rio had had his suspicions when he first heard Eru describe the dish, but he hadn’t expected to be right.

“Yeah... This will definitely taste great. I’m sure of it,” he said with firm conviction.

“Oh? That reaction almost sounds like you’ve had paeja before, Rio,” Eru pointed out.

“Yeah. I can’t say for sure until I eat it, but I’ve had something similar. The burnt parts at the bottom are the best.”

“Oh! You know your stuff. Let’s dig in, then.”

“Okay. I think you’ll like it too, Sora.”

“Sora’s looking forward to it!” Sora’s eyes glistened with excitement as she stared at the paeja.

“In that case, I shall proceed to serve it,” a male waiter said. He had a large spoon to serve the paeja into portions for them.

“Avoid the vegetables when you serve Sora’s,” Sora immediately directed.

“Understood.” The waiter nodded with a smile.

“Oh? I can’t say I’m impressed to see a mature lady being so picky about food. Food is like life: it has its sweet and its sour moments. Being able to distinguish such flavors is part of being an adult, Sora.”

“Sh-Shut up. A true adult only takes all the delicious parts.”

“I see. What a perfectly fitting phrase.” Eru chuckled in amusement at the discussion.

“Here you are.”

The paeja and other dishes were served and placed on the table before them.

“Thank you. We’ll serve the rest ourselves, so you may leave now.”

“As you wish.” At Eru’s order, the waiter left the room.

“Now, let’s eat while it’s still warm.”

“Yup.”

“Let’s eat!”

It was finally time to eat; the first dish they all naturally reached for was the paeja. They scooped the broth-soaked rice onto their spoons and carried it to their mouths.

“Mmm!”

“Hmm...”

“Phew!”

Eru, Rio, and Sora all beamed contentedly.

“That’s right...this is the taste! This is the taste I wanted you two to experience. What do you think, Rio? How does it compare to the paeja you know?”

“Yeah, it’s delicious. There’s meat, seafood, and vegetables in it, so I thought the flavor would be difficult to blend together, but this is perfectly blended. There’s no stench to it, and it’s really easy to eat.”

“That’s right. Meat paeja, seafood paeja, vegetable paeja; there are many different variations of paeja out there, but the pope-style one has a mix of all of them.”

Next to the paeja conversation taking place between Eru and Rio, Sora was stuffing her cheeks.

“D-Delicious! This is delicious! Sora can eat this rice and meat and fish forever!”

“Heh heh. I’m glad you’re enjoying it, Sora,” Eru said, smiling with satisfaction.

“I don’t know if I can recreate the way this tastes, but I’ll try to make paeja for us next time, Sora.
