The Black Shark Tavern is located in the Port of Umbrin; its proprietor is Reliar. The tavern provides food and alcohol for the Umbrinite military. Although the stench of stagnant ale and vomit overpowers the senses on entry, the atmosphere is one of camaraderie. Served by a number of voluptuous barmaids, the patrons can often be overheard sharing their conquests, tales of military life, or rounds of boisterous laughter.

Menu

Tequila (Shark's Fin) - 30gp
Gilded with a small black shark, this glass holds a bubbling shot of golden tequila. Tiny flecks of cinnamon cover the surface of the drink, bobbing endlessly in the fizzing liquid.
Rum (Dark Rum) - 30gp
An opaque red colour, this tiny glass has been filled to the rim with a dark brown liquid. The intoxicating aroma of fresh rum drifts delicately from the glass to tantalize the palate.
A platter of fried squid - 225gp
Steam rises from the edges of this platter, a small amount of oil pooling along the outside of the plate. A heaping portion of freshly cooked squid lies in a pile at the centre of the dish, fresh lemon juice drizzled over the top of the delicacy. Presented with the main dish, a tiny cup of a buttery sauce presents a nice dipping location for the meal.
A bag of charbroiled fish - 120gp
Charbroiled within a roasting bag to preserve the flavours, the brown paper has been torn back to reveal the chunks of fish inside. Slightly blackened on the outside, the fish has retained much of its moisture, leaving it succulent and tender. A side of vegetables is stacked around the outside of the bag, the morsels tender from the cooking process.
