Cuisines of Earth, Tuesday

[sharp_man]

Class today had been informed to meet not at Portalocity, but at Hannibal's house. He greeted them all in the foyer before leading them into the dining room, which was more than large enough for them all and decorated in dark blue and red with plants - herbs - in a tower by the doorway.

"I thought today we would stay close to home and eat a meal I can truly vouch for," he said, smiling. Once they sat, he would bring out water, homemade soda, or wine, and then the menu:


Gougeres
Strawberry bruschetta
Lamb chops with balsamic reduction
Gnocchi with sage butter sauce
Cauliflower pomegranate apple salad
Roasted summer vegetables

And then to follow, excellent coffee or tea and:
Elderflower, champagne, and berry jellies (Sorry, Summer)
Chocolate liqueur souffles

If you left hungry, it wasn't his fault. He might even send you home with food.

"Oh, no," Libby said, a little hastily and a little (ha) sheepishly, with a small shake of her head. "It's alright. It just feels...a little awkward, is all. I'm sure it's delicious, though. I just...think I might pass on it today, thank you."

"By all means," Hannibal said with a nod. "I make sure to include a vegetarian entree for just that reason."

Because some people were weird about meat.
