Of course, thank you. I appreciate your help.

@Memory

Yeah, thanks! Hey, what's up with the senseless world out the windows?

Waiter: it is a pocket dimension world with the restaurant at its center...

That would be excellent, thank you. This is our first time; is there anything we need to be careful to observe?

@Memory

Waiter: No worries, it is completely understandable, and considering this is a multiverse serving restaurant, we do not have any specific traditions, but as a formality we do expect our visitors to pray a prayer of thanksgiving to God for the nourishment and the blessings of everlasting life. *He smiles serenely as he picks up the alien targeted tableware* I will be back promptly with a homosapiens specific menu if that is all sirs?

Well, we can ask once someone comes by to help us. No shame in being uninformed.

@Memory

*As you say that, a bright light apears next to us and out of it a formally dressed four armed green humanoid comes out, with eight blue eyes*

Waiter: Ahem... Welcome to The Nexus! How can i help you kind sirs? Would you like a change of tableware since you obviously are homosapiens?

*Sits down*
Not in this universe. I can’t assume they’re all the same.

@Memory

I mean, only from what i'm seeing already here, the only thing that is remotely similar to the restaurants i know, are the tables... probably... though i'm not entirely sure about these tableware here... is that like a set of pliers? ... should i be concerned now?

*Motions with my hands*
Lead the way. You would be more familiar with the etiquette here than I.

@Memory

You never saw a restaurant before in your life?

*We go sit to the nearest empty table next to the panoramic paradoxical window a usual table of four chairs - these seem to be the smallest tables here...*

I’m more curious as to how many people this building expects to house at a time.

@Memory

Let's get us a table and we can ask the waiters...

It bothers me a lot less when it’s a plant. The moving part isn’t as big of an issue.

@Memory

*We turn and we see a vast, multi layered tower of a restaurant with the immediate ground floor opened, but it looks like it could go up all the way to the surface*



*The sight is quite impressive even at bottom level, especially the windows... people seem to look down a vista of an outdoors city... underground... but it has a sky...*

I guess this must be the place huh?... wait... what's up with those windows? Are those people taking pictures from a citiscap-- *i trail off as i realise the paradoxical nature of what is seen through the panoramic windows*

I don’t enjoy eating meat in general, so I understand your distaste there.

@Memory

But does it have to be meat?... i mean some alien plants are still... mobile... ew...

Myriad Reality

*Shrugs*
If you really want to know, the trick is to eat slowly. Think about each flavor and less about what it is you’re eating or how it’s presented.

@Memory

Even worse... think if it is still alive and wiggling in your mouth... *Gags falsely*

Hey, great opportunity to try something new. Let’s break out of our comfort zone.

@Memory

*As we begin walking down to the nexus restaurant* ... *I stay silent with a grimace for a moment* I don't know man... i mean i have seen my fair share of movies on alien food and let me tell you, if anything there is half as real... ew...
