Thin white smoke carrying a strong spice aroma rose from the gigantic iron grill in the courtyard of the Black Wood Roasted Meat Tavern. The sizzling sound of fat from Mutated Armored Boar thigh meat touching the embers sounded like a beautiful melody to anyone who was hungry.
In a short time, the elderly tavern owner served three super-large wooden plates overflowing with golden-brown roasted meat cuts. A reddish sauce made from black-wood pepper bubbled hot on the surface of the meat, releasing a smoky, spicy-savory aroma that immediately made stomachs growl.
"Please enjoy, Miss! These are the most tender cuts from the inner thigh. I cooked them with a double-searing technique so the outer texture is crispy while the juices inside remain perfectly locked," the old man said with a wide smile that never left his now wound-free face, placing the gigantic plates on the table.
"Thank you, Grandfather. The aroma never disappoints," Sylvia replied with a satisfied smile.
