Chapter 57: The Restaraunt

The map called for Pinkie and Rarity to go to Canterlot, at least it appeared to.

"The map is glitched," said Cassandra, who knew this because she had level 99 IT skills, "it's supposed to be Applejack and Pinkie Pie, which means it most likely has to do with food service since that's where you two overlap."

"Well howdy doody, if they need help sellin' food in Canterlot, ah'm their filly. Why, ah could sell ice to an Eskimare."

She was so excited that she slipped on the marble stairs and died.

"Well, she would've just suggested they do apples, and then try to sell them apples," noted Cassandra, "I think we can find a way around this."

They decided it would be best if Rarity went instead, and Cassandra accompanied them to make sure things went all right.


As Cassandra said, they looked around for restaurants in trouble until they found one with Indian cuisine and no customers.

"Oh thank Pegashiva customers!" said a hefty stallion with a mustache. He eyed up Cassandra, "and a bride for my daughter. Saffron!" he called

"Father, stop trying to set me up with every customer who walks in- oh bless Pegashiva, will you be my bride?"

"Back off!" hissed Rarity.

"Now girls, let's behave ourselves," said Cassandra, "I have too many ponies attracted to me to be just one pony's bride, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun. But first, business. We're here to improve your restaurant. Rarity and Saffron will go attract customers, and Pinkie and Coriander will help improve the food. Doing it the other way around would be a disaster."

"Can we sing a song called 'It's Gonna Work' while we do it?" asked Pinkie.

"That depends, do you want to jinx us?" said Cassandra sarcastically.

"Do I?" asked Pinkie.

"No, " said Cassandra.

"What about you, Cassandra, what will you do?" asked Saffron, "will you perhaps put your beautiful face on promotional material to give us some star power?"

"No. I'll be solving your biggest problem of all."

"And that is?"

Your restaurant is set back 20 feet from the rest of the stores! It's no wonder nopony comes in here. I'm going to pick it up and move it in line with the rest of them."

"Oh Cassandra, so wise and strong and beautiful. Please let me help you practice kissing as a reward."

"That sounds like a great idea."

So, Cassandra moved the store, while Rarity and Saffron worked drumming up business.


"How many customers did you get?"

"Two hundred" said Saffron and Rarity in unison.

"Well, then I'd better help out," said Cassandra, "I'll pull double duty as the head chef and maitre'd. Saffron, you can be assistant chef, and Coriander, you'll be assistant maitre'd." And so, under Cassandra's guidance, they successfully restored the Tasty Treat to its rightful glory. Even the impossible-to-please Zesty Gourmand was pleased, and she gave them 4.9 stars, the only loss of points coming from Cassandra not being able to stay full time. Once again, Cassandra had saved the day.
