 "Acquainted with the chef?"

 "Yeah. He worked in Hidros not long before moving to the new continent. I tell you, the food he cooks is the best in the world. If matters turned out a little differently, I tell you, I might not have been here today. I could have been a chef working for myself or in a renowned restaurant. Who can say, what comes often goes, remains are naught but what we wish we could alter."
