Vitor stepped slightly ahead of Sam, opening a way for her to pass and as they entered he looked around, and pointed to a table with the larger sofa style seats on one side and two chairs on the other end.

Silveira: That sounds like a good place. I have just the perfect meal for us. A good robust lettuce, cucumber and bell pepper salad, with just a hint of onion and olive oil, served with sword fish fillets. ::He joined his index and thumb together and tapped his ear lobe, just like his grandparents did.:: I can almost taste it.

Richards: That does sound incredibly delicious. ::Tilting her head to the side:: Wait. Are you saying this is one of your recipes? ::Raising her eyebrow:: Suuure it is…

Vitor raised an eyebrow. Certainly Sam was aware of his cooking skills. Granted it would be replicated, but even so it was almost as good as the real thing.

Silveira: Are you doubting my cooking skills? You better eat that up or I won’t show you the Arcade

Richards: ::Holding her hands up in surrender:: I didn’t say that! All I am saying– ::cutting herself off:: Wait… Did you say arcade?

Silveira: Oh it’s the fun place I left on the holodeck. Imril was actually instrumental in helping me finish it and if it wasn’t for him it would still be a work in progress. And there’s something for everyone there. I am sure we can find you a cool arcade… ::He raised his finger before sitting:: Once you finish your meal. Fish and salad is very good for… ::Vitor pointed to Sam and her belly:: The three of you.

Richards: ::Faux pouting:: Fine. I will eat my food. If you don’t show me this cool arcade… I’ll… Well I will. ::furrowing her eyebrows:: I will do something!

Sam laughed and Vitor shrugged, winking at her.

Silveira: My dear, you are an expert at doing everything.

Richards: Can I at least pick my own drink?

Silveira: But of course, I don’t want to be accused of not giving you a choice.

Richards: Well, if your majesty ::gesturing to Sil:: will allow it. I will have strawberry lemonade.

Vitor arched his eyebrows. It was hardly an appropriate choice but he let it go. After all Sam also needed something to pick, although he had a feeling he would be able to surprise her.

Silveira: Very well. Now get yourself comfortable and I will be right back.

Richards: Response

Vitor nodded and stepped to the bar. He missed Mir, the former bartender. But he had managed to get along with the rest of the staff there and after a few minutes they had replicated his recipe to the most delicious spot. And Sam’s strawberry lemonade.

He took Sam’s tray as one of the waiters followed him with his.
He smiled as he settled it down in front of Sam and nodded thankfully to the waiter. Holding his fork he winked, as he took a piece of the fillet and a good chunk of salade

Silveira: Now my dear friend, you will enjoy this banquet worthy of a Queen.

He didn’t wait for Sam to reply and took a bite at the refreshing salad. It was as close as it could be to the real thing. And as he chewed, Vitor realized he should have eaten a lot sooner.
Luckily it was a light but fulfilling dish.

Richards: Response

He smiled and waited for Sam to taste it. He opened his arms, inquisitively.

Silveira: So… What do you think? And seriously I can understand if you don’t like it, but it is really healthy.

Richards: Response
