AUDIO

Hi, so... Quick question. I'm thinking of collecting recipes from different places and making a restaurant somewhere. So what are the foods people miss from home? Have you found something almost like them? What's your favorite dish in some of the big cities?

And like... do any of you have cures for motion sickness or indigestion from riding flying pokemon 'cause it doesn't matter how much space experience I have, my gastrointestinal tract has never wanted a part of any adventure on any realm of existence. If there's a noncorporeal plane to visit? I guarantee I'd find a way to feel sick on it on the first hard right turn.

[Mostly he's learned to just cope and ignore it but not dealing with it at all would be nice.]

ACTION - CLOSED TO LUISA

[He's made a few friends over the network, but he's not left the Sevii Islands very much. He likes it there, it reminds him a lot of where he grew up, but he does know he needs to get out more. Even if it means he needs to hitch rides more.]

[He's walking around with a Nidorina in tow, (though she's shambling considerably slower than him). A box of poffins in one hand and a lunch for Luisa even if he probably should have asked her what she liked first. He's got his gear out, looking over the directions to the meeting place with a confused squint.]

Comments

Is that so? That's good to know. That'll make things easier when I make things for my travel group.

[The other part of the response takes a while, with Bucciarati sending over text recipes for food he knows Abbacchio and Narancia enjoy, including pizza Margherita and a marinated chickpea and arugula salad, followed by his own preferred recipes for a pasta dish with squid and grilled scallops.]

Those should be sufficient for now, though I'd be more than happy to send you more recipes in the future. I did a considerable amount of cooking for my friends back home.

[ironchef]

I was really concerned. I've been a to a lot of worlds where the textures and tastes were really unexpected. Everything here? Pretty predictable, and honestly that's great.

Though now you got me thinking some quick prep food packages would also be a good sell. A lot of ingredients ready to cook because it's hard to cover everything when you're on the road.

[nellacerniera]

Ah, I can imagine that would be a serious relief.

[Since this is audio, the way that Bucciarati's expression brightens at Hunk's idea can't be seen, but it can practically be heard in his voice as he continues.]

That's a fantastic idea! It can be hard to cover everything on the road, and even when you're in town, you may just forget something when shopping. If you did provide packages like those, I would absolutely buy them, especially if you found a way to have those delivered.

[ironchef]

Yeah, I think I'm totally going to do that. Maybe some snack packages for pokemon too.

Okay, I gotta ask. I've been having trouble creating a perfect bolognese sauce. If we come across each other I'd totally love to have a taste tester to help me out.

[nellacerniera]

That sounds wonderful.

If we happen to run into each other, I'd be more than happy to help. [A pause.] Bucciarati, by the way. Bruno Bucciarati.

Sorry for taking so long. Relative got married and it ate me.

[ironchef]

I'm Hunk Garrett. [Hunk is not his actual first name, but it might as well be. He can't think of anyone that's called him anything else in a long time.]

That would be great. The more authentic, the better. [And hopefully he'll have a good idea of what stuff he can use.]
