Does anyone have recommendations for nice places to eat in the bazaar? I usually buy food to cook at home, but it doesn't seem right to skimp out after buying a date in the auction.

The pizza place is really good!

It's awfully casual, though. This should be a special occasion, I think.

Hmmm...the tea shop Koi runs?

Or you can always cook!

I think he definitely doesn't want me to cook. Besides, then it would just be hanging out like usual.

Yesterday I saw someone with a wheelbarrow that had a little stove for heating up two pots, one for cheese and one for some kind of sweet brown sauce - shoklet, I think. They were charging to let people dip food they'd bought elsewhere in either pot, and calling it fondue. Seemed fairly popular, though that could be the novelty factor

Thank you! I didn't think much about what would be fun to do until after the auction was over, and then I was stuck.

You seem pretty knowledgeable. I'd say that's an up side to not cooking much for yourself.

The really awful foodsellers don't tend to stay in business long unless they change things - that's basic economics. Everyone else, though, it's a matter of personal taste.

I tried making something once. My roommate makes a big deal about not letting me try again, but there wasn't that much smoke. Still, it's probably for the best that I don't cook.

Any kind of smoke in the kitchen tends to be bad. It sounds like it's a good thing that you eat out--and I'm sure the vendors are glad for the business.

you bet your ass he takes every chick there.

Assuming that for a date you don't wish for pizza or meat you can eat while standing... have you considered Italian? I know it's rather traditional, but I say it's traditional for a reason--there's something for everybody there. There's a cozy little spot in the corner of the bazaar with a small garden, dark windows and a candle on every table.

Then again, never deny the charm of a home-cooked dinner. It may be more appreciated than you think.

They probably have a little plaque for Mr. Grift's Table

Now that sounds like a good place. Thank you--if he likes the idea, I might have to go there. I doubt he'd be very interested in my cooking, anyway.
