Chapter 103: What Best Friends Do
Back in the kitchen, Xavier and his team were busy cooking, chopping, plating, garnishing, each movement practiced and swift. The sound of sizzling pans and clinking utensils filled the air as plate after plate was sent out to the dining room.
Meanwhile, guests were enjoying their meals, chatting, and taking pictures of the beautifully plated dishes.
During a short break, Xavier stepped out from the kitchen, wiping his hands with a clean towel draped over his shoulder. He made his way through the tables, smiling and greeting the guests one by one.
"Hi, thanks so much for coming. How’s everything?" he asked, stopping by a group of well dressed guests near the window.
One of them looked up and grinned. "Xavier! The food is incredible. That lamb dish? Unreal."
Another chimed in, "Seriously, I don’t usually like cauliflower, but whatever you did to it, amazing."
Xavier laughed lightly. "I’m glad you’re enjoying it. Let me know if anything’s missing or if there’s something we can do better."
"Nothing to improve," someone said. "Everything’s perfect."
"You and your team really nailed it," another guest added.
Xavier gave a humble nod. "Thank you. We’ve worked hard for this day. I’m happy it’s showing."
After several more greetings, he walked over to Cassidy’s table. Claire was busy munching on bite sized pieces of filet mignon, while Cassidy sipped her mocktail.
Xavier smiled. "Enjoying everything?"
