H TAVERNA

Lucious was able to spare some time to visit Detroit. Definitely different from what he had seen in Chicago but his always main place to visit was the city's business district and see what he could find while he was there; probably buy somethings or eat at places that just peaked his interest, there was a Greek Restaurant not from called the H. Taverna, he never had greek food before so it'd be the first time Lyon would be trying this though he didn't expect to catch anyone he knew here, though it was a possibility.

The man walked inside with confidence and approached someone that would set him at a table. Upon being sat down, he ordered chicken with rice and baked lamb with potatoes with greek beer as a drink. It's definitely a different setting would what you'd usually see in other places where you go out to eat. It gave away that home feeling which would just calm you down if you've had a stressful day. 

Lucious sat there reading a novel, a thriller one at best to pass the time while his food was being prepared.

Marta was walking through the streets, she decided to take a short cut through the business district in order to get back to the Luciano estate a bit quicker. She was slowly learning the ways around Detroit and this was one that shaved off a fair bit of time. Best part about this walk was checking out the population and thriving businesses. 

Along her walked she noticed a new building, well not a new building but a new business that must have just opened up. Must have opened during her business trip to Chicago. A bit intrigued she crossed the street to check it out. Upon walking up on it she examined the name. H Taverna, it seemed like a Greek Restaurant. She hadn't had good Greek food in a while, not since she moved to America. 

Before she knew it she was looking through the window, that's when she saw him. It was Lucious, go figure running into him her in Detroit. Felt like to her that is was just a little while ago that she spent some time with him living it up at the Red Dragon Casino in Chicago. With a smile she waved through the glass to get his attention but he was to in depth in his novel to even notice her. 

Marta decided to go inside and at least say hi. She walked right past the host desk and over to where he was seated. She placed her hand on his shoulder which instantly got his attention. He turned to her and smiled immediately. 

"Fancy seeing you here in Detroit." Marta exclaimed. 

The novel was definitely something interesting, almost makes him more happy that he's reading it rather than when he picked it up, yet he was so focused on reading that he pretty much ignored anything around him. If anything, people would've told you that Lucious was a very focused person when it came to whatever he was doing, some might call it a little bit extra to be putting in so much concentration into daily life but sometimes it comes as a pro, sometimes a con.

Though, all his focus was broken when someone put their hand on his shoulder. It sent chills down his spine since it was so unexpected and it would've been more awkward if they didn't know them and of course Lucious was wearing a fedora so unless he looked up there wouldn't be much to see. Lyon looked up to see it was Marta next to him and he gave her a smile.

"Fancy seeing you here in Detroit."

"Yeah, well, thought I'd finally get the time to look around and see what was what. I've never had greek food before so it kinda gets my interest up, wanna sit with me?"

Lucious took off his fedora and pointed over to the chair just across from him.

Marta smiles as she took the seat, she was gonna take it anyways but him gesturing to the seat meant he actually wanted her company. Or at least he was opened to having someone accompany him. 

The waiter came over with a menu but Marta placed her hand up as to deny the menu. 

"Oh, I don't need that. Just bring me a gyro please and a water will do."

The waiter nodded his head and went off to the kitchen. So Marta directed her attentions back to Lucious. 

"I didn't know you were going to be in town, you should have let me know. How you been?" 

Lucious closed the book and decided to rest it on the table just near the edge. Though, it was kinda placed neatly so it wouldn't fall unless he brought his arm all the way over to the end of the table to knock it off. His stomach growled just signalling that Lyon needed to eat something so he kinda shuffled in his seat because of it though he tried not to make it very obvious.

"I didn't know you were going to be in town, you should have let me know. How you been?" 

"Heh. I probably should have said something but I didn't plan on leaving Chicago so soon and I didn't have a exact time I wanted to leave, really; so take it as a surprise. I'm doing okay, though, just going through the same shit, different day motto. What about you? Hopefully feeling good even after our little party at the casino."

Lucious gave Marta a smile. He genuinely had a good time with her at the casino, it was only recently as well that they went out besides the usual coffee shop hangout.

Marta laughed, that night at the casino was a good time but that next day was a rough one. The only sleep she had gotten was the short flight from Chicago to Detroit all of about an hour, give or take. She had planned on going directly to the Luciano estate when she had gotten back into town but that didn't happen. 

It was a story for another day but the sleep that day didn't come until that evening. 

"Yeah, that was a really good night but I didn't sleep much during that 48 hour period. Needless to say once I finally was able to sleep I slept for a good 12 hours. Though the good thing about being up like that, I never had the chance to wake up with a hangover."

Lucious smirked.

"Honestly, I'd be lying if I said I got any decent sleep after all that wine. Luckily, you told us to go for food but that never helps cause once the alcohol is in, it just finds a way to drain you and give you a painful headache while it's working it way out. But, you? Never having the chance to wake up with one? Not sure how you could find it good anyhow, it's just annoying. Takes forever to clear it up unless you drink coffee or something."

Lucious shrugged. After some time of talking, the waiter ended up coming back to the table though it was with plates of food as he placed it out on the table in front of Lyon along with the greek beer that he had ordered earlier. He took a sip of the beer and started to hum audibly, though only Marta would be able to hear as a sign of what to think about what he just tasted.

"Beer isn't that bad."

Lucious began to dig in and start eating. He was pleased with the quality of the food, though he looked up at Cirillo once the food went down his throat.

"You'd be missing out if you didn't order something to eat."

Waiter comes and "Hello,its 29$ for you sir and 5$ for you lady you can pay before you leave and you can also order some more food anytime,have a nice time"he says and he leaves.

In Detroit, I find this Greek place. I do like Gyros, not with the sauce though, just the meat feta and like lettuce or something. What can I say, I am French, not Greek, lol! I walk in the door and notice, it's SG's place. So of course I would have to patronize it.  The menu seemed to be Greek items, all in Greek mostly.. I did know Gyro, lol.. so I ordered that without that sauce, I always forget what it is called.. cucumber sauce, maybe? But the lamb meat and some places mix it with beef..was soooo good.

I wondered if there were like french fries I could order with it, since the items were in Greek, I was not sure. I wondered if there was  like a paper menu with English on it. As that might be easier than explaining everything, or translating from Greek to English. A Greek restaurant, I think is something different, for sure!

The waiter listened to Jewel and sayed "OK,one gyros without tzatziki sauce in it,also we put french fries in lamp if you want but there are also french fries in gyros and we are sorry for not having a menu in english but all those dishes are having greek names that cannot be translated"

Waiter leaves,after some minutes he comes back and giver the gyros to Jewel "Have a nice time" he sayed

Kristoff, after a long day hustling hard sees a sign that says H TAVERNA. He hadn't eaten much that day so he figured he would go grab a late supper. He walks in and is greeted at the door. His coat is taken and he is seated. A young girl comes over and drops off a menu. "I'll be back to take your order in a few minutes hun." She says smiling. The first thing to catch his eye was Baked lamb with potatoes for only twelve dollars. "What a deal" he thought. But he promised himself that he wouldn't just pick the first thing he saw, even if it did look delicious in the picture on the menu. "Hmm the Souvlaki looks good as well..."

Eventually the girl comes back. "Ready to order sir?"
"I think so, but before I do. Any suggestions?"
"Well, the Fried Squid is amazing." She replied.
"That DOES sound good. I think I'll have that to start off as an appetizer, and then the Souvlaki as the entree." He said confidently.
"Would you like a drink?"
"Hit me up with a Raki."
"Excellent choices sir." She said cheerfully. As she takes the menu from him and hustles back to the kitchen. 

Sitting at my table in the authentic Greek restaurant, I take a bite of the Gyro.. I practiclly melt on the floor..wow! This must be what its like in Greece! Kinda makes you want to take a trip there. The meat was divine along with the pita and everything! I would for sure have to come again and try other things to expand my pallet. I am not too adventureous, so I would not probably try squid or something like that. I will for sure tell people about this establishment. It is always great to try things from other places. I think it makes for good conversations.

Isabella decided it was time to check out operations run by her family members and so she was making the rounds with her new bodyguards Raeni & Linval.  Dressed smartly in a summertime pink dress Isabella greeted people with smiles and handshakes.  She asked for a table near the back so she could keep an eye on who was coming and going from the restaurant and she began to look over the menu.  Her guards occasionally talking to her as she did, but mostly just watching for signs of danger.

Ordering Lamb & Potatoes, Isabella pulled out a notepad and began jotting down her thoughts about improvements and ways to get more people to visit the place.  Occasionally she paused to doodle in the margins.  It was a nice way to spend an afternoon, just relaxing and enjoying a good meal while supporting her crew.

Having not long landed back in her home city of Detroit, Lushie made her way to the lighthouse to drop off her luggage. Being away from home made her realise it is good to try new things sometimes as she thought about the tea gardens she found in New York, which took her breath away. She was trying to decide what to have for dinner and remembered about a Greek restaurant in Downtown.

She got herself ready at The Tower headquarters and proceeded to make her way towards H TAVERNA (Traditional Greek Resturant). She was looking forward to sampling something different than her usual likes when going out for dinner. She loved getting to know about different cultures and was about to find herself in for a treat.

As she arrived she was greeted by a host who took her jacket and led her to a table to sit. The decor of the place was done out well as she looked around. Was a nice atmosphere, another gem not far from home for her to go to time and time again. The restaurant was owned by one of The Tower's members so it had the added bonus of enabling Lushie to support the business by being a customer there herself.

She read through the menu and was amazed by the choices on offer, she chose to order the traditional Greek Salad, Xoriatiki for a starter and to have the Greet Moussaka for her main and asked for a bottle of red wine to accompany it with, "I'll trust your judgement on the wine" Lushie said politely to the waiter as he jotted down her order. 

A short while later her salad came which was not long followed by the moussaka, both made with perfection. It tasted and looked as wonderful as it was presented. The wine also went down a treat. Lushie was rather pleased with herself for trying something new to her. Something beyond the usual steak dinners she would opt for when she went out. 

She finished up her starter and main dinner and enjoyed a few glasses of wine before ordering a dessert, to allow the food to go down a little bit. She called over the waiter and ordered a Greek Yogurt with honey. "Something light I think after all I have eaten so far!" she chuckled to the waited as he jotted down her dessert order. The waiter headed towards the chefs in the kitchen to get that sorted, this too didn't take to long and he was soon back with it. Again, like her starter and mains, the dessert looked so good, almost too good to dive into with the way it was presented. But alas, she did and thoroughly enjoyed.

Once done, she finished up the bottle of wine and summoned for the bill, it came to $26 dollars for the food, plus a further $11 for the wine. She paid up what she owed and rounded it up to $45 dollars with a tip. That's how much she enjoyed it! She thanked the waiter and host for the service and made her way out of the restaurant as she promised to visit again very soon.
