Harat-Shariin Family-Style Dinner
Normally served in a large room "with its patrons strewn across the floor of the enormous central room, lounging in one another’s laps and eating from communal bowls, or playing games, or cuddling." Private rooms also available. Most foods designed for feeding one another with one's fingers, eating from the same bowls and drinking from the same cups.[5]
- Sangria (with wine-soaked fruit hand-fed)
- Seafood
UAV Cometfencer
The UAV Cometfencer has a cook--sort of. The Cometfencer has a person who calls himself a cook who spends most of his time scouring the u-banks and newsstreams for new and interesting recipes to feed to the genie.[6] These include the following:

- Burgers with onion rings and fries
- Axeman ale
