"No, no, I almost got caught up in your words."
After some serious thinking, Li Zheng responded, "Where we're from, there are more than just one type of restaurant. Besides what we usually eat, which can be called home-cooked meals, served as a finished dish directly to the table.
There are also two other kinds of restaurants where the business only needs to provide ingredients, and the rest of the cooking is left for the customers to handle themselves."
"... What?" Mirel paused her chewing abruptly, looking at Li Zheng in disbelief, "Such a model exists? Wouldn't that mean placing a lot of stoves in the restaurant?"
"Hmm..." Li Zheng recalled carefully, "Actually, just a few electric cookers are enough. The business provides the ingredients and either a soup base or a grill, and the customers cook the food themselves... it's not really cooking, you just need to put the ingredients into the soup to boil or on the grill to roast."
