“I’m not expecting a fine dining, but something a little different?”

In her confession, the woman clarified that she was not expecting something like a candlelight dinner or a fine dining experience but merely something different like a cafe would do.

“I wouldn’t mind something like Japanese cuisine, too. I don’t need the place to be expensive.”

The woman also said that she has no issues with having mixed rice, but not when she has had it every day for every meal.

“I can’t believe that I had the same food even on my birthday, and I didn’t even get a present.”

“Mixed rice is convenient and has a lot of choices. It saves us the fight from thinking what to eat.”

The woman was left speechless by his answer and continued to wonder how to change his mind when it came to choosing a better meal for special occasions.
