[Katriel]

Vanilla or Bust
Dessert Parlor - $

Arguably the most popular dessert vendor on station, Vanilla or Bust offers a rotating roster of 101 ice cream and sorbet flavors, of which they feature fifteen daily. In a cone or in a cup, milkshakes, malts, parfaits and sundaes are all possible mediums through which these cold treats can be delivered, toppings optional. Vanilla or Bust also features a small menu of more substantive desserts, including ice cream cupcakes, crepes (sweet fillings only), and chocolate fondue with fruit.

They accommodate deliveries to officer quarters if you meet the minimum order amount (at least two pints worth of ice cream).

Koralo’s
Ktarian Restaurant - $$

A modestly sized restaurant specializing in Ktarian cuisine, which is known for its earthy, stewy, pungent and tart flavors. Though Ktarian food is traditionally eaten with one’s hands, Koralo’s does allow reticent customers to use utensils and those who do only receive dirty looks from that one chef who only works on Tuesdays. Don’t leave before you try the Ktarian pudding, which Koralo’s has won local awards for.

Customers place orders at the counter and take a number placard, whereupon a server brings the relevant dishes when it’s done.

D’Inverno
Andorian-Italian Fusion Bistro - $$

This restaurant’s decor is a little more rustic, with stone and fir wood furnishings and quilted tapestries that evoke the frugality of early Andorian lifestyles. The food is a fine contrast, though, with a menu of hearty stews, pasta offerings with meat and vegetables, and delicious garlic flatbread to mop up all the sauces. If you eat in with young children, the servers will offer your party small buckets of crayons and invite you to draw with them on the paper placemats on every table. But as it turns out, they are also happy to offer crayons to big children, too.

Katedralis Restaurant! - Eastern European food, Come in ask for a table! the hostess is a polite and happy woman though, a new sign has been placed up that arguments involving significant others must be taken elsewhere.

Château de saveurs

Mood music found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvhPcuqyIig

On a higher level of the promenade sits Château de Saveurs, a fairly prominant french restaurant on board the station. Large glass windows open up to look over the milling about of those below. The internal setting is fairly formal and based in a white and red color scheme. The entrance is staffed by a host who would lead guests through a somewhat narrow passageway of art that opens into a larger dining area filled with white table cloths, red chairs.

The wait staff all appear to be wearing formal Earth based clothing.

The dining area is fairly well lit during the day but candles are on all of the table to show that it may change at some point in the evening. Several more pieces of art are scattered, oil paintings of vineyards scenes, parisian streets, the roof should though hard to miss is recessed and depicts a beautiful mural.

[Nimitz]

Ramsax's, A theme restaurant dressed up as the classic 2260s era Starfleet Starbase, a diner with sandwiches, burgers, and melts, including an award winning knoephla soup. On weekends, the diner is closed in favor of a fine dining with styles across the galaxy.

EDIBLES

Confection Oven
Microbakery - $

This is a tiny nook of a shop on the Promenade that offers sweets and baked goods for a wide variety of palates. From kreyla and JInjoq to cinnamon rolls and mapa, the shop offers something to tempt almost any species. There is no seating, just an order counter. The proprietor is a middle-aged Bajoran woman without much to say. Patrons say that between customers, she is sometimes seen gazing across the Promenade at the expansive installation of Vanilla or Bust with a distant, resentful expression.

Curry Conflagration

A restaurant featuring food from Indian/Pakistan/Bangladesh region. Most dishes are offered vegetarian or with a variety of meats. Also, find twists on other off-world favorites like Bajoran Hasperat, and even a "Indian Hot Gagh."

SHOPPING

A Novel Idea
Bookstore - £

An antique bookstore that's rather odd, just like it's owners; a Mister and Missus Lucifer and Barbera Foxworthy, a retired eccentric British couple with "oh so upper class" voices.

The shop itself is shaped like a giant ship, that spans two decks, and can be accessed from either deck; a door from the upper deck, and a ladder from the lower deck.

The "upper deck" has a small cafe of sorts, with soft sofas, comfortable armchairs, and puffy beanbags scattered about. Sitting on these sends one sinking deep into them, and getting up (or wanting to get up), is nigh on impossible. Mr Foxworthy is often seen snoozing on one of the comfier armchairs, a newspaper over his chest, his slippered feet on a footstool. In place of the aft castle is a cafe and the storefront, as well as the Foxworthy's living quarters. All edibles, which include cakes, cookies, brownies, etc, are all homebaked by Mrs Foxworthy.

At the fore of the ship, there are steps leading down to the "lower deck". On this deck are books everywhere, stacked from floor to ceiling. There is barely space to move between the twisting maze of the book forest. Not a single section of wall can be seen, everywhere is colonised by books, very much like this place. Fiction, non-fiction, ancient, modern, from all corners of the galaxy. The smell of old musty books hangs in the air, the only sound are the faint turning of book pages, and Lewis, the Foxworthy's friendly exocomp. It buzzes around the maze, rescuing lost visitors, finding requested books and genres, and moving book stacks to retrieve books someone may want.

The store runs on a trust-based system. People are free to purchase books as they like, with a recommended price listed for each book. However, the Foxworthy's are happy with people paying as they wish, and even let people take books away for free. Anyone is free to exchange or donate books as they wish. Mr and Mrs Foxworthy wish to spread the love of reading, and the shop is their idea of doing so.

Zetar’Driuasris’Sivie

Fine Dining Establishment - $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

An unconventional restaurant aboard Deep Space Thirteen, ZDS aims to bring the fine dining experience of the Parin nobility to the Federation. Every table has a dedicated staff assigned to it to ensure that every need is met - whether that be culinary, atmospheric, or comfort.

The menu’s variety is composed entirely of beverages and desserts. This is due to there being one main item on the menu for appetizers and entrées - the ten-course meal. Barring substitutions, there exists an assortment of soups, salads, fish, shellfish, steak, pork, chicken, and fruits that will all be served during the ten-course.

The staff (currently composed of two people) are some of Parin’s most esteemed culinary servants, having spent decades in the royal palaces. The downside of having such high requisites for service is the lack of personnel. As a result, there is only available seating for one table at a time in the restaurant - thus making the seating area a private lounge.

The menu is composed of a combination of human foods, or at least Parin’s interpretation of them, along with the native aristocratic cuisine of the kingdom’s political elite.

With such extraordinary service and quality of food comes an extraordinary price. Be ready to spend large amounts of money.

ZDS only accepts payments in gold-pressed latinum.

ZDS is currently hiring. Applicants must expect practical examinations, including on-demand food preparation. All prospective waiters are expected to possess skill in both service and musical performance.

OOC An example of a dining experience can be found here. I’d be happy to GM a visit to this establishment.
