This couldn’t be the right place. Aside from the fact the name was different than what he was looking for, he was in searched of a restaurant and this looked more like a bar kind of establishment. Scratching the back of his head, he told himself the same thing he did as he started to wander the streets of Kalispell: he should have gone with the others. A few of the staff members suggested they went out together. They said there was this little restaurant that was the go-to place if you were in this part of town. Kentaro wasn’t sure what ‘this part’ of town had that made it so different from ‘another part’ of town but he never lived here before so what did he know? Did those parts had names? Did they mean this district or just that street in particular? He didn't bother to ask, that would likely just add to his confusion.
It was apparently weird to see someone on a bike. It was the impression he got when he noticed some people staring at him. He didn’t get why, it was a pretty regular bike. And driving a car was not the solution with him. While he was not exactly a menace behind the wheel, he was not the best driver either. And it was so much easier to turn around on a bike when looking for a place than to do so with a car. Maybe he should get himself one of those GPS app for his phone, that would really be useful.
Anyway, he was hungry and didn't want to keep looking anymore. They likely had a table already and were halfway through their meal, assuming he preferred not to go in the end. It was not like he had been forced to join them, they only proposed it to him. Since they wouldn’t mind, and even if they did he could just admit he got lost, he figured that place was as good as any other. After tying his bike to the nearest ramp he found, he walked in.
It was... bar-like? Seriously, he sensed no atmosphere in it. There was a jukebox playing music and he could see a television showing sports results. He did notice some people having food along with their drink so there was that. Still, this pub was lucky he was hungry otherwise he wouldn’t be in here. He moved to the counter and was immediately asked what he’d like to drink. “You’ve got a menu?” he asked after he ordered a beer. He got his ale along with a piece of paper covered in plastic. The list of suggested meals wasn’t long. He studied it while taking a sip of the beer, only to choke. He did his best not to make a sound, let alone spit it back in his glass. Just what kind of beer was this, the worst the world had to offer?
