The Dionysus, Red Sector (Ballard)

Jennifer knocked softly on the plas-steel counter to get his attention, not wanting to surprise someone with a knife in their hand. She was a short, pleasantly plump natural redhead with dark green eyes. Her hair was pulled back into a tight bun today and she wore rimless glasses. A slight smattering of freckles dotted her high cheeks and the bridge of her button nose. She was the new business manager he had hired to do marketing, event planning and booking, and manage the finances of the restaurant.

If she risked getting food detritus on her pricy black skirt and emerald blouse, the finest fashion from Geneva back home, she brought news that was either very good or very bad. She was probably there to remind him that - again - he still had to prepare a few sample menus for the Winston dinner next week. It was his first fully booked private party. The wedding was a marriage between a human man whose father was a luxury transport tycoon and a Narn noblewoman. They had wanted a unique menu with traditional dishes from both their worlds, as well as “fusion” dishes that featured combinations of cuisine from both species in each of the five-courses.

In reply to The First One (msg # 1):

musing over his most resent attempt of culinary fusion
Ballard exits the kitchen to see who is knocking?
"Um err hello" How may I be of service?...

 OH"

with a smile the eager Chef presents a bowl of some stew like repast
Char asks
"how would you rate this little dish I whipped up?  now be honest it is sort of important for the restaurant.

Ahh nice hair by the way... pity you have it in a bun.  I think your eyes would really pop with hair like that."


the bowl still offered out for assessment.

Now this dish is one of my attempts to combine Narn and Human delicacies I have oysters and some sort of Narn sauce I felt should compliment the seafood but... Well one persons trash is another persons treasure and all.   Please give it a try and tell me what you think?"

"perhaps I should make some Century Eggs.  Well they can take from a few weeks to a few months to make if I do some I will have to plan them now.  What do you think Miss would you like to try an ancient Chinese based Earth delicacy?"

"So Miss as I understand it you are an accountant and thus would possibly be able to explain to me the term cooking the books.  Is that some kind of insider joke?"...

Ballard wonders just who he should invite to the the opening of the Restaurant?  The Ambassadors, The Captain of Babylon 5, The Security Force, The local Techno mages (they were always someone not to ignore.) some of the more reliable store owners or masters of the merchant ships?

Who among them would even reply to an invite?  Just leaving it to chance would not be advisable. What would happen if no one showed up or even worse everyone wanted to?...

Ah well perhaps just take bookings and see how things go...
