The Eleusian Inn is located in the forestal city of Eleusis. It provides comfortable rooms at the base of the large oak tree and two shops, Ye Olde Bake Shoppe and the Sugar 'n Spice tea room, in the upper level of the establishment. Trym, a humgii, makes his home in the Inn where he waits to devour leftover scraps of food or anything else placed into his hands.
Menu
- A grilled fillet of trout - 125gp
- Cooked on a rock stove, this large trout has been grilled to perfection. Melted butter drips off the edges of it, and a slight aroma of garlic and chives rises from its plain lettuce wrapping.
- A shiny red apple - 10gp
- The glossy red skin of this Eleusian apple shines brightly, hinting at the vibrant flavour and juicy interior that the Eleusian orchards are famed for producing.
- A wheel of cheese - 30gp
- White, hard, and made from the milk of a goat, this small wheel of cheese has been made to last for long journeys, or to accompany many a meal.
- A bowl of moose stew - 85gp
- The surface of this brown bowl is smooth, having been glazed to a shiny finish. The chunky stew filling the bowl is composed of large cubes of moose and potatoes along with sliced carrots and celery, covered in a thick brown broth. Tiny specks of thyme are interspersed throughout the stew, and on the surface is a lettuce leaf shaped into a likeness of a moose's antlers.
- A bowl of boiled turnip - 50gp
- This nondescript clay bowl is filled to the brim with steaming-hot cloudy water, in which floats small white chunks of diced turnip. Wild rice is mixed into the broth and it is garnished with a sprig of parsley, making for an appetizing repast. A few drops of the broth have lapped over the side, making the outside of the bowl slightly wet.
- A bowl of porridge - 60gp
- This deep bowl is filled to the brim with hot bubbling porridge. Small green peas seem to swim through it, and a sprinkling of cinnamon on top gives it a heady fragrance.
- milk (mug of goat's milk) - 25gp
- This clay mug has been designed to hold cold beverages and keep them cold, its thick walls providing adequate insulation. It has been painted a deep cobalt blue colour and glazed with a hint of frosted silver in an ivy leaf pattern. Emblazoned on the bottom of the mug is the Great Oak of Eleusis.
- A loaf of Eleusian bread - 125gp
- This loaf of bread has been hand-baked from grain grown in the Eleusian fields. It contains seven different types of grain, and crackled sunflower seeds have been sprinkled across its buttered top. A cheerful red and white checkered cloth has been wrapped around the loaf to keep it warm.
- A fluffy, round biscuit - 30gp
- Fresh from the oven, this biscuit is warm and fluffy. Made from buttermilk, the layers seem to melt in your mouth. A hint of steam rises from the warm bread.
- A leg of roasted chicken - 80gp
- This leg has been sliced from a roasted chicken. Rosemary, thyme and sage have been tossed onto the chicken's skin, giving it a lovely scent and flavour. It is wrapped in a bit of brown paper to protect the consumer's hands from getting too messy.
- A steak of venison - 130gp
- This steak is a sirloin from one of the mighty deer of the Eastern Ithmia. Cooked to perfection in ale, with fried mushrooms and onions, the scent of the meat alone makes you begin to hunger.
- A lemon on a candy stick - 10gp
- A candy stick has been cheerfully stuck into this lemon. The sugary coating of the candy has been striped with yellow, and flavoured with a bit of citrus tart to match the lemon it has been stuck in. The lemon itself is medium-sized, juice pooling where the candy has been stuck into it.
- A roasted rabbit - 100gp
- Seasoned with rosemary, thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper, this rabbit has been carefully skinned and prepared. Roasted over an open pit, the flames have coloured the exterior to an herbed caramel shade. The juicy meat smells succulent as the herbs mingle together.
