“Oh, that’s… that’s interesting,” Chef Silas murmured, reading the review aloud. His voice held no particular emotion. He set the newspaper down and took a sip of his coffee. The restaurant's soft lighting illuminated the untouched breakfast in front of him.

He stood up, heading back to the kitchen to begin his routine.
