Soooo, would it be a terribad idea if I kinda wanted to make sure the cafe is just a small clientele of less than 20 to a dozen people at time, and let it be a money sink.

As I mostly want it to do something to get me out of Kaikori.

But I don't want it to be. Stressful?

I think a lot of personal-project cafes and restaurants tend to be rather small. You just need to make sure there is a high enough quality to keep it afloat.

Define "High enough quality".

Like, make it for the rich exclusively?

No, just... make it good.

Oh. Hrm. I should probably find a cook who wants to make good food.

Noriko keeps mentioning she has one she's at war with.

Oh, really? Must be one of the servants she has...

Yeh, apparently they keep forbidding Noriko herself from cooking, while Noriko likes to bake cookies, last time I heard from Noriko while at lunch with her.

Well, maybe it would be good for the servant if they worked for you instead, but I think I remember hearing that they tend to be...

Finicky?

Finicky?

Something about not really liking listening to anyone other than Noriko, even when ordered to do so.

And they apparently don't even listen to Noriko...

I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with keeping it a bit smaller. It's not like you have to worry much about it going too far under to stay open.

Yeah, Mom said she doesn't mind it being a boondoggle if the red isn't too bloody, financially, I think she said.

Though what do you mean by me not having too much to worry about?

Oh, just that, really - it's not like this is a thing you're staking a financial future on, or anything. It's mostly a thing on the side. So even if it's a little in the red, it's fine.

Yeh, it's mostly to make use of existing property I own, and you know, have somewhere to meet and talk to people, and somewhere to take Kamala after school if she wants.
