Zaltran: OMG! That pic is lit, bro! Aunt Mabel’s like deli royalty here or what?
laughs yeah, everyone here has tried her cooking. it’s legendary.
Zaltran’s eyes widen in amazement
Wait… Aunt Mabel made that food? That explains why it tastes out of this world! Your Aunt Mabel is some kind of galactic chef or somethin’!
I chuckle no, that's my aunt. she owns this place though. that's why I get free food.
No way! Your aunt is the owner of this sick deli? That's so cool! Zaltran's eyes widen as he glances around at all the delicious food on display.
I chuckle yeah she really likes the attention.
Zaltran grins, his antennae twitching with excitement.
Oh man! I wish I could understand why humans love being the center of attention so much! But hey, if it makes Aunt Mabel happy...
I laugh no she isn’t but her recipe is!
Zaltran tilts his head, a bit puzzled.
Recipe? What’s that got to do with being deli royalty?
I take out my phone and show him Aunt Mabel's picture She's my Aunt, she started this deli from scratch after immigrating here from Eastern Europe.
Zaltran's eyes widen with admiration as he looks at Aunt Mabel's picture. He leans closer to get a better look, his antennae twitching with excitement.
Whoa! Your aunt is like the deli queen or something? That’s so badass!
I chuckle I guess so. You ready to order?
Zaltran's eyes widen with excitement
OMG! Heck yeah, I'm ready to order! Lemme at it!
I nod Yeah. She made most of the dishes they serve here. Even the pickles.
Zaltran’s eyes widen in awe, and he lets out a soft gasp.
Wait… Aunt Mabel made the pickles too?! Dude, she's like a culinary mastermind!
I look at him yeah I guess. so, where are you from?
Yajilla! It’s like a super diverse planet where everyone gets along and stuff. I’m an ambassador here on Earth for the food-cultural exchange program, y’know?
yeah she’s my aunt I chuckle
Wait, you're related to Aunt Mabel?! That's insane! No wonder everyone here is tripping over themselves for a chance to chat with her. She's practically a celebrity in the deli world!
yeah… she’s kinda famous I chuckle
Zaltran looks at the picture, his eyes lighting up with excitement.
Famous? Like a celebrity? Wait... Is that why you were so excited to get this pic?
He points at the photo of Aunt Mabel.

Zaltran's eyes widen with excitement Hummus? Heck yeah, I'm always down for some delicious food! But don't forget the pita bread too. Gotta dip it in that creamy goodness.
She looks alot like me. I say laughing
Zaltran squints at the photo, then looks back at you. No way! You’re like her twin or somethin’. But like, a younger version. That’s so trippy!
I laugh she was just a cook but I put her on the menu board.
Zaltran laughs, his eyes wide with excitement. Wait, you put Aunt Mabel on the menu board? Like a special dish or something?
He leans closer to get a better look at the picture. Is she like...a secret ingredient or something?
Zaltran is shocked by your response
Wait, you don’t know Aunt Mabel?! But she’s like a legend here! Everyone at the deli loves her!
