"I like Dungeon Crawler's Pizza Place myself," said Aleks. "Their Boss Fight Special has everything on it!"
Tara sighed. "I'm not sure pizza is the best choice. I was looking for something more upscale...."
There's Everything But the Oink. That's the only part of the pig they don't use. Or there's Gimble's Grilled Rat Emporium...."
"I said UPSCALE," Tara repeated.
"Gimble's Grilled Rat Emporium," said Aleks, "is considerably upscale, by goblin standards."

"Your problem," said Aleks, "is that there aren't any upscale restaurants in Grymwald. Maybe you should let your date decide...." "It's the guy's role to decide!" Tara exclaimed. Aleks raised an eyebrow. "Are you the guy, then?" Tara blinked. "Um...." Halford Cook, owner of the bar, glared at Tara. "Are you CERTAIN you weren't a boy in your previous life?"
