Re: Apokryphos Cafe and Coffeehouse - The Cafe
The barista dealing with Mittens smiled, and said "That works. Sodas we have in plenty. Probably in more varieties than you would expect, I know it blew my mind when the soda menu was shown to me the first time. Want something standard, local, or exotic?"
John's dark roast was served up with steaming hot freshness, the cup made at a one-cup coffee machine behind the bar as he watched. They'd settled him, as a single diner, at the bar as well, since there were a lot of families that liked to come and dine here.
Dane got a nod, and she repeated "Spicy with scallops, no eggplant. I'll let the chef know she can get creative with your meal other than that."
Antoinette had also been seated at the bar, so the barista waved her toward the others, and said "You're welcome to talk to other patrons, we don't discourage polite and friendly interactions. It's only people starting fights and violence that get ejected from the building."
Lin chuckled, and said "Well, you know where to find Meg, so come see her when you are ready. I am going to get back to the kitchen. My 'day job' here, so to speak, is being part of the family business that my daughter started. It lets me play with the food combinations, which is almost as much fun as making up new spells half the time."
