Cuisines of Earth, Tuesday

Class had been handwavily instructed to meet at Portalocity, and Hannibal waited until everyone was there before he nodded, smiled, and began.

"Welcome, everybody. We will be meeting here for each class unless I inform you otherwise, and then we will be heading out to eat somewhere, a different place every week, so that you will hopefully get a good idea of the breadth of culinary styles Earth has to offer."

He waved them through the portal and waited until they were all there before resuming. "Today we will be eating in New York. It's a large city in the country Fandom is attached to, and has a long history of immigration, and thus a large variety of cuisines. We will be eating at Upland, which features enough of a selection that everybody should be able to find something to eat. The local language is English, or whatever it is you call the language we're currently speaking, so if you have any questions, you can ask the staff directly."

He led the way in and they were shown to a table. "While we wait for our food, please introduce yourselves. In addition to your name, I would like to know if there are any foods you would like to try, and I will also need to know if you have any allergies, food aversions, or religious or philosophical restrictions on your diet."

He smiled. "I am Doctor Hannibal Lecter, I am from a version of modern Earth, and there is very little I won't eat, though I do prefer my food without too many processed chemicals in it." He nodded at the person next to him.
