of knights, dogs, and yakitori

( another week, another palace- and far be it from us to deny tradition. through bickering, wandering and other shenanigans, the group from argenti's palace will find themselves at an agreeable izakaya- not entirely meals, and they definitely have to make an argument for the younger teens, thank you izou, but the atmosphere is light and more importantly, this bad boy can fit so many customers at one group table. it was a hard battle- so now it's time to rest hard, too.

...

please consult here for menu ideas. this is not a dennihop. )

... Is there anything on the menu you're curious about? Izakayas are from my home country, so. I should be able to help...

[bloodweapon]

I'm not familiar with most of it. I would appreciate some explanations, though.

[Please feel free to give him a (handwaved) crash course in food here!!]

[beathollow]

( she will do just that! ... though, her explanations seem to focus on anything but actual taste. cooking methods, spices and sauces, sure, but... )

... And then nabe is a standard winter dish with a lot of different varieties- since the weather is changing. It's a one-pot stew with seasonal vegetables, mushrooms and meat...

[bloodweapon]

[Huh, interesting... He would have expected taste to be one of the more important things to mention, but he can guess at most of them with her detailed answers.]

I see. What are your favorites?

[beathollow]

... I- my standards are a little different than most people's... I like that there's a lot of textural variety in nabe and the ramen dishes, and the bao buns are fluffy but have unique fillings...

[bloodweapon]

[Huh... Maybe it's something to do with how she tastes things, then...?]

The bao buns sound interesting. I'd like to try some of those.

[Really, he's not too picky; he'll try some of anything you put in front of him.]

[beathollow]

I'm getting some, too. We can try different flavors and share, if you want.

( as one does in a place like this! )

[bloodweapon]

[Fray nods at that, his ears perking up.]

That sounds good to me. It sounds like I'll have quite a bit to try here.

[Thanks to Eli ordering a lot and Izou encouraging him...!!]

[beathollow]

Alright. How about pork and chicken...?

[bloodweapon]

[Nods!]

Perfect. Good choices.

[beathollow]

( she nods, and continues looking at different options. )

Is there anything else you're interested in?
