[ empatheias ] from the hearth

"From the Hearth" is a small restaurant run and owned by Alvin and Fractured Milla Maxwell ([personal profile] descendend). Alvin handles the business side while Milla handles everything involving with the meals. Their "specialty" is creating meals based on other worlds, and the "goal" of the restaurant is to give everyone not only a taste of everyone's world, but to give them a little reminder, as well. In addition, it should help promote the different cultures to the locals and further help keep relations on the friendly side. (After all, what better way to get to know your neighbor than by dishing up good food?)

For a look at the menu, refer to here. Occasionally will use [personal profile] fromthehearth for events (otherwise my inbox would explode).

In addition, Alvin is keeping Jane Maxwell's spirit alive by continuing and hosting a donation box for any donations to go toward new arrivals. Help your new neighbor get their footing by donating a few sylvs or items today!


(rough idea of how it looks on the inside, just alter it with some more rustic elements to it)


Description:
Located in the southwestern corner of Merchant's Square, just a few blocks away from the Residential District, it's situated at the corner of a not-so-bustling street with a park nearby. The building complex its part of has other stores and small grocers, giving it an ideal location to attract customers, but not too busy to get drowned out by the central city life. In terms of design, there's a lot less steampunk and a lot more Elympion touch going on here, giving it a more "modern" look. But the lighting, the floral decorations, earth tones, and hardwood tables adds a bit of a rustic touch to it. And yes those trees are there. They kind of came with the place (and probably how Alvin managed to get a decent deal out of it).

Early lunch through dinner (11am - 8pm); open Prote through Pempte (Monday through Friday)
