After settling in, they skimmed the handwritten menu displayed on the wall.
Evan leaned in, squinting. "Alright, what are we getting this time? We can't just keep ordering 'the thing that looks like pizza.'"
Pierre sighed. "You could just learn the actual names of the food."
"I could," Evan said. "But I won't."
"Somehow, that doesn't surprise me," Carmen muttered. "I also don't think they have it here in this restaurant."
"I think they do, here it is," Maria showed the menu.
Evidently, "the thing that looked like pizza" was a common food around here.

Mei ordered first. "I'll have drake pepper stew and flatbread."
Pierre followed. "Something heavy. Meat platter."
Maria and Carmen glanced at each other before settling on seafood skewers.
