"How does this work? I am not aware of such a dining custom." One of the Earls asked.
"There are two options, we can order from the menu and the server will bring it to us, or we can go to the buffet, take a plate from the pile and choose what we like, and as much of it as you care to eat.
That method is a popular way of deciding which local cuisines you prefer, as you can take smaller portions of everything and then go back for your favourites." Wolfe suggested.
"Like the dessert table at a formal dance." One of the women realized immediately.
"Exactly. They will come around with more drinks if you would prefer something that isn't on the table, but for breakfast there are ten different juices plus tea and coffee."
