Borin and his fellow Goatfolk sat at a clean stone table, waiting for their food. It felt like only a few seconds later when a female kobold appeared. She moved quickly and quietly. She carried a large tray. The food was placed on the table in front of them. She took their wooden number tag. Everything was exactly what they ordered. The smell of the food hit them, making their stomachs growl even louder.
They were surprised. The food arrived so fast. Normal inns took a long time to reheat food, and the quality often dropped. High-rated restaurants cooked new food, but customers usually got soup or appetizers first while they waited for the main dish. This was different. Not only was it fast, but the smell was also delicious, fresh, and inviting.
