After his reminder, Elise realized that she was indeed a little hungry. Hence, she took the initiative to say, “I know that there’s a food street here. Let me take you around.” Alexander murmured in agreement and followed Elise to the food street in Aris. After about a twenty-minute drive, they arrived at Aris’ landmark commercial street. The place included a combination of food and shopping, so it was suitable for people to go shop and enjoy food at the same time.

“What do you want to eat?” Elise asked, then recommended several local snacks. “The shrimp gnocchi, skewers, casserole, and barbecue meat are all pretty good. Would you like to try them?” Alexander answered, “Let’s have some casserole.” However, Elise hesitated. “Their casserole is known for being spicy. Can you handle it?” “Yes. Let’s give it a try.” So, Elise took out her mobile phone and searched for the nearest casserole restaurant.

When she walked in with Alexander, the Arisians gave them a warm welcome and led them to the private room on the second floor. “What ingredients would you like in the casserole?” Elise asked while referring to the menu. She listed, “Ground beef, shrimp, duck, portobello mushroom…”

Alexander also said, “Ground beef, shrimp, duck, portobello mushroom…” The two of them spoke at the same time, and they even mentioned the four same ingredients in unison. Elise looked up at Alexander, who remarked in surprise, “Miss Sare, I didn’t expect that you and I would have the same preferences.”

Elise exclaimed, “I know, right! It’s such a coincidence.” In the end, the two of them ordered two servings of casserole made from those four ingredients. Elise loved casseroles very much, and she had since she was a child. The casseroles in Aris were simply the best, so Elise enjoyed it very much.

“Do you want anything to drink? The specialty here is the soy milk,” Elise said, but Alexander didn’t like soy milk. “I’ll have a can of Coke.” Without even thinking, Elise rebutted, “Carbonated drinks aren’t healthy. Let’s change it. Why don’t we get you fruit juice instead?” But, Alexander was persistent. “Casserole and Coke is the ultimate combination.” Elise couldn’t out-talk him, so she gave up and ordered a cup of soy milk and a can of Coke.
