After coming to France, Elise Don's cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds. She can make more than just baked dishes with butter; she's mastered simple congee and side dishes, a perfect blend of Chinese and Western styles.
Whenever Elise Don wants something to eat that she can't find suiting her tastes outside, she ends up experimenting on her own to satisfy her cravings. So, her culinary skills and knowledge have been forced to develop out of necessity.
Elise Don left the hotel and, on her way back to the apartment, deliberately bought some ingredients to cook.
Preparing food for the sick is not troublesome; a bowl of shrimp and vegetable congee was quickly ready. Elise Don served some for her son, and the majority she packed into two insulated containers to take to Oliver Bloom.
Elise Don still remembers Oliver Bloom's enormous appetite; even when sick, she wouldn't underestimate his hunger.
