Chapter 1149
"Yes, I saw that. Please spare us the theatrics," Nicole said, having had enough of his antics.
"Ms. Riddle, is our work done for the day?" Kelly asked Nicole.
"Yeah, we can hang around in the afternoon and you can go wherever you want." Nicole turned to Kelly.
"Really?" Kelly smiled. "That's great!"
While they were busy chatting with one another, the waiter came over with steaks and other snacks in hand, and placed them on the table. "Enjoy your meal."
"Their steak is pretty good." Nicole cut a small piece and took a bite out of it.
"Yeah," Kelly added.
After a while, two men carrying a large chopping board approached Nicole's table. "Excuse me."
The empty plates were taken away. Then, two handsome waiters hefted the gigantic lobster and placed it on the middle of the table, and just like that, the entire table was filled.
"How do we eat such a huge lobster?" Harvey looked at the waiter.
Another waiter brought a set of mallet and kitchen shears to the table.
The three of them were stunned as they saw the tools. They did not realize that such tools, as unusual as they were, were needed for a meal of this sort. Harvey grabbed the huge kitchen shears and
proceeded to stare at the waiter with his wide eyes, "We're using this?"
"Yes, sir. You can use this to extract the contents out the shell and eat it," the waiter said in manner that indicated he was not kidding at all.
"Let's get to work." Harvey held the kitchen shears and proceeded to cut his way through the claws with all of his strength.
"These are for the both of you." Harvey served the claws to Nicole and Kelly.
"Thanks." Nicole laughed, thinking it was funny.
"What are you laughing at?" Harvey asked, his brows raised.
"You must be happy. You can eat and mess around at the same time. Such an immersive dining experience is pretty interesting," Nicole commented, happily eating the contents of the claw which Harvey had much difficulty cutting through.
"Quit screwing around. How’s does it taste?" Harvey wiped the sweat on his forehead away.
"It is really tasty. Stop cutting. Here, have some." Nicole gave him a piece.
Harvey scooped the flesh out of the claw with his fork. Then, he dipped it into a special mixture of sauces and put it into his mouth. "Wow! It's fresh!"
After he had eaten his fill for a moment, Harvey continued shelling the lobster.
Once he had made his fourth cut, he lifted his head and looked at Nicole, "Nicole, this is a rare experience. You should try it out
yourself."
"I think I'm fine where I am. You can continue with it," Nicole replied, not interested in cutting the lobster at all, as she preferred being served with lobsters that were readily prepared.
Noticing Harvey's grimace, Kelly grabbed the tools and looked at him with a smile, "This is quite interesting. I wish to experience it. After all, it's not every day that you get to do this."
Then, she began to cut the lobster diligently.
Harvey noticed that her technique was incorrect, so he made it a point to offer her some friendly advice. "Hold the kitchen shears straight. Be careful when you're cutting it. Make sure your hands aren't too close to the shears."
