Chapter 744 A Celebration

“This looks pretty good,” Sonia uttered as she turned to look at the man whose face was directly beside hers.

“Really?” Toby turned to look at her as well. She nodded. “Yeah. The plating of the food might be rather odd, but the colors of the dishes look really good. For a beginner’s standard, this deserves a thumbs up.” Sonia stuck her thumb up in front of the man as she spoke. Initially, Sonia assumed that his dishes wouldn’t be too great even if he put in the effort to learn cooking.

However, she just realized that she had gotten it wrong. Although she couldn’t tell if the food was good until she tasted it, just the smell and the color of the dishes told her that it would taste average, if not amazing. Toby smirked when he saw how amazed Sonia seemed by his cooking. Then, he released his arm around her waist to pull one of the chairs back. He pulled her closer to the chair and pressed her shoulders to make her sit down before he handed her some cutleries. “Try it! Tell me how it tastes,” he urged.

“Sure,” Sonia replied with a smile. She was just as eager to taste the dishes, anyway. With her cutleries in her hands, Sonia glanced at the few dishes in front of her while contemplating which to try first. Fortunately, she had never been an indecisive individual, so she came to a conclusion pretty soon. She picked the dish that was the closest to her.

Toby had prepared a total of three dishes—an omelet, some grilled meat, and fried vegetables. All of these were some of the most commonly seen dishes in any household, but these weren’t dishes that would typically appear in the Fuller Residence. The Fullers’ chefs were Michelin star chefs who didn’t necessarily specialize in such common dishes. Sonia was certain that Toby hadn’t tasted regular food like these in the past.

After all, Tom would never get Toby such a simple meal even when they ate out. Most of the time, Tom would order meals from high-end restaurants. That explained why Sonia was so shocked when she first saw the dishes that Toby had prepared. However, upon further thought, Sonia realized how almost every beginner would start by preparing these basic dishes. She no longer felt as surprised after that.
