The Random Alien diplomat nodded, and quickly moved with the group to the meting room once more. As they sat down to eat, the ship's galley chef came into the room carrying a single, ornate pot, and some handle-less mugs. They slowly poured a thick, chocolatey substance from the pot, into each of the cups, and topped it with a bit of foamed milk.
The chef then spoke, saying, "This is Spiced Pocapod, a common evening drink for our people. It is very similar to the human's coffee in effect, but tastes much richer and less bitter. Some have likened it to the richest of chocolates, personally, I find the flavour much more unique and multifaceted. Should you wish for an alternative, I am here."
Anyone who drank the drink would find an intense rich, chocolatey taste indeed, but also some hints of spices similar to cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom. The frothed milk added a bit of a nutty quality to it, and the galley chef served them with a pastry similar to that of Baklava, to eat on the side. Sweet and honey-laden, the pastry was incredibly flaky and had a thick layer of date-like fruit in the centre.
The diplomat started first by taking a bite and a sip of the drink, before beginning to look over the platter the Yamataians had brought to see what they had to offer.
