Taravana Tavern

The Taravana Tavern or "Kapakka Taravana" is a dining establishment in Pohjanlahti Kylä. One must be mindful of their manners there.
Founded in 2188 as one of the earliest Cetacean restaurants in Pohjanlahti by Durian Surströmming, the tavern was the first Cetacean to regularly decline service to unmodified humans. Only a select few exceptionally polite humans with impeccable dress and behavior have been allowed to dine there, and they are a very rare sight, one often celebrated and likely to dignify that human as worthy of respect. Sol was among those to eat there in 2219.
The Tavern is best known for its Kylmäsavustettu Lohi, a type of cold smoked salmon only served at the tavern when a salmon of sufficient quality is caught. This happens two to three times a year, and is announced across the globe. Cetaceans have traveled from Yallahs and even the Tonga Tribes to partake. Like all Cetacean eateries, the food is free, so it's a purely matter of getting ones reservation in first. Pytten got to enjoy the dish once at their 12th birthday, one of their fondest memories.
