Blessings Tavern Menu Novels & Stories

People could be dicks. “Burgers. Bread. Buns. Bratwurst. Do I need to go on? Ooh, bon-bons, berries, butter, baklava, banana bread. That’s a double B. Yum. Oh, and we can’t forget bagels.” Saber shook his head. “You can’t eat Baked Alaska for dinner.” “Why not? It’s the best thing on this menu. Whoever owns this place might want to revisit their options.”

"Where the fuck is Jenny? I need a drink." One of the other ladies who doesn't normally serve us obviously hears Bly whining as she comes rushing to the table. "Apologies for the wait. What can I get you?" "Whiskey neat and a full rack of ribs," he answers. I nod. "I'll have the ribs too, but with a beer." Oak clears his throat. "I'll have the burger and fries." She nods. "Sure thing. Coming right up." I rub my stomach. "I'm starving."

I was busy handling orders from each customer and attending to their requests. I needed to focus on work, but Draken’s words from that morning still lingered in my mind. He wanted me to come back to him, but I wasn’t going to allow it to be so easy. "Here are your orders: Beef Bourguignon, Bouillabaisse, Grilled Branzino with Basil, Lime, and Ginger, three pieces of Caramel Crunch Tart, and three Lemon Iced Teas. Enjoy," I said to the three customers as I placed their orders on the table before they left.

"And I am so hungry since you said I shouldn't eat, I will have to order enough to satisfy my hunger." "You're free." He smiled and handed the menu book to the waiter who was waiting to take our order. "Get me Kansas lily style barbecue, macaroni and cheese, also add London broll." I smile after he placed his order so I hand over my menu book and leans to my hand as I faced the waiter to place my order. "Get me a fried chicken with macaroni and cheese, collard greens breaded fried okra, cornbread, Brunswick stew, a soppy joy sandwich with a side dish coleslaw and baked potatoes." I glance over at Jeffery who still seems calm.

I thought about what happened the last time I'd seen Luca drunk. I could still taste the whiskey on his lips. Stopping myself from thinking about it further, I leaned forward on the table and grabbed a peanut from the bucket in the center of the table and cracked it open. As soon as our drinks came out. the waiter took our order for the food. "Large plate of the mango habanero traditional wings with a side of loaded tots," Bates told him. "And a plate of nachos..." He turned to Blaine. "Do you want nachos?"

She asked me. “No, thank you. This is great.” “Okay, did you get a chance to read the menu, or do you need more time?” Jet looked at me. I didn’t even look at the menu yet. “What do you have on special?” “Tonight’s special is the Carbonara.” “Sounds good, I’ll have that.” I said, handing her my menu. “Same for me, please.” Jet answered before handing her his menu as well. “Perfect. I will be right back with your bread and salads.”

“I know, but don’t judge it by its cover.” He opened the door for me and ushered me inside. The hostess led us to a booth nearby, smiled, and asked for our drink orders. I hadn’t even had a chance to look at the menu. “What’s the drink of the week?” David asked. “Crescent Brew,” she said and wiggled her eyebrows. “Perfect for couples and friends.” David grinned and me. “What do you think? Care for an adventure?” “Uh… What’s in it?”

One more customer and we were at the counter. "How can I help you?" The girl, who was wearing a nametag that said 'Katrina', looked at us, and I just grinned up at Taylor, who stepped up to the occasion. "I'd like a turkey club on white, grilled, and a cup of beef and barley soup please, and she'll have a pastrami on rye with only spicy mustard, with a cup of the tomato bisque. Two drinks." We took a plastic number and went to find a seat. I took the cups.

The variety in the menu is festive and beau​coup. Amid the entrance of customers, a waiter in a red and white uniform comes to our table. He smiles at both of us before speaking. “What are your orders, my lovely couple,” he says, confident in his words. Ryle grins at me before clearing his throat. “Let me have the C3 and A7 combo and a cream soda,” he says. “What about you, missus?” the waiter asks me, making Ryle giggle. “Can I get the C4? And also I’d like to have this four-season mocktail and more ketchup, please.” I smile, and then the waiter goes to the counter.

It didn’t take long for his car to arrive at its destination, and he still managed to find a parking spot. Upon entering the restaurant, he gave a wry smile because Leo wasn’t there. Of course, the man must be confused trying to find the usual spot he was referring to. Because his “usual spot” these days was the one offering good food for inspiration on the new menu at his restaurant, not the one that only served bourbon and the like along with pretty girls. A waitress approached him and handed him the menu after he sat down at an empty table near the bar. “The Scotch Egg, Chicken Wings, and… a hot drink—whatever you’d like to give me,” Arsen told the waitress as he handed back the menu.
