El Burrito Loco, Thursday Evening

[mustbeawitch]

No, Lydia hadn't chosen the island's Mexican restaurant for this week's Supper Club in a belated nod to Cinco de Mayo. She didn't even know what that was, don't be silly. She might have chosen it entirely at random, to be honest, but now that she was here she was considering finding out what the big deal was about 'nachos.'

Welcome to Supper Club, everyone! El Burrito Loco is open!

Arrive and Mingle

With chips and salsa.

Well, great. Now Ignis wanted to go and make some salsa.

And probably some of his own chips, too. It had been a while since he used his tortilla press.

Because of course he had a tortilla press.

But he should probably be thinking about what he wanted to be eating tonight, instead of jumping ahead into tomorrow.

Liliana had a few suggestions.

...From the menu, of course.

"Come to a decision yet, my darling?"

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[chef_chocobro]

"I believe," said Ignis, in the thoughtful sort of tone that was clearly landing on something because she'd asked, and therefore, clearly, a decision should be definitively made, "I'm in the mood for some tacos el pastor, and I should ask if they do a good menudo here. If not, I'm adding to the menu I'm building for tomorrow.

"And you, my love?" He smiled at the arm now comfortably slipped around d her waist. "Anything in particular catch your attention?"

...From the menu, of course.

"Have you had horchata?" Rey asked, figuring he would know what that even was like the expert he was.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[chef_chocobro]

"I have had horchata," Ignis confirmed with a nod, and a faint touch of amusement, since he figured Rey would already suspect that answer. "And I would quite recommend it, if you find yourself on the fence about it, especially if you're in the mood for a nice creamy sweet treat that not cloyingly so, and just that nice touch of cinnamon."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[mustbeawitch]

Of course he did!

"Professor Scientia, welcome, sir! I trust you have been well?"

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[chef_chocobro]

"Ah, Miss Bennet," Ignis greeted her back with his usual small but easy smile, his typical polite nod. "Good evening. And very well, thank you."

There was a lightness to him this week, almost, as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders that he'd been carrying around for quite some time.

"And yourself?"

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thatwaslucky]

"Chips and salsa sound terrific today," Rey decided, because there was never a bad time for that.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[deathsmajesty]

"Surely you're going to eat more than that, though, Rey, darling," Liliana said. "Though, don't worry. I'm less a martinet about nutrition as my paramour is."

Rey was grown. She could eat what she liked.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thatwaslucky]

"Oh, there will also be tacos," Rey assured her. "But I think chips and salsa seem to be mandatory."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[mustbeawitch]

"I do like that they're complimentary," Lydia said. "At home we have no such charming custom, but at home dining out is rather limited to inns and the like, outside of the cities."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thatwaslucky]

"That seems like a missed opportunity," Rey said. "People typically eat at home?"

She said, like she'd even been able to do that back in the day.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

Liliana was none the worse for wear after her multiplanar jaunt yesterday, and was more than happy to be snacking on chips and salsa. And if the majority of her chips happened to come from someone else's plate...well, sometimes that just happened.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[mustbeawitch]

Those chips tasted better. It was known.

"Miss Vess, good evening! How have you been?"

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[deathsmajesty]

Exactly.

"Now that I've settled back into my normal routine, things have been much better," Liliana said, meaning that she was able to do what she wanted, when, and for whichever reasons. "Preparing for my next class, actually. And yourself, Lydia?"

Adrian didn't know anything about Cinco de Mayo, but he did know he liked both chips and salsa and also nachos, so he was quite pleased with today's suggestion.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thatwaslucky]

"Thoughts on what you're getting?" Rey asked.

Since just chips and salsa shouldn't be the only thing and all.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[witchoftheflesh]

"I'm pretty basic," Adrian admitted with a warm chuckle. "A burrito, probably. I mean, if they're good enough for the restaurant to take its name from them..."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[mustbeawitch]

"Mr. Blackwood," Lydia greeted him. "I trust you and Boston have both been well, sir."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[witchoftheflesh]

"We have been, Miss Bennet," Adrian said with a smile. "Busy, but well. The spring is a busy and exciting time in a Grove and with only Boston and myself to tend it, we've been pretty steady working. I hope you've also been well?"

Supper Time!

[mustbeawitch]

Nachos, it turns out, are delightful! Who knew?

OOC

[mustbeawitch]

Aw yeah I got the half-grown cat someone dumped on us into a carrier and to the vet to be neutered this morning.

Re: OOC

[chef_chocobro]

I feel it's important to mention here that I actually did use my own tortilla press for the first time yesterday lol

Re: OOC

[witchoftheflesh]

Me: There's a tortilla press?
