About Us
The Ambrose Restaurant is a chain restaurant found in almost every extradimensional port of call, from the bustle and rain of Three Portlands to the high tech high-streets of Eurtec. We have locations around the world, though they're a little more difficult to find. Our ethos is to provide a remarkable culinary experience for a very reasonable price, all without compromising on taste, texture or customer satisfaction.
You can be sure that you will receive the best possible dishes when you arrive at our restaurant, and the strange and peculiar will be present in every bite, sip, or slurp. We here at Ambrose use all sorts of experimental techniques, ingredients, and tools to ensure your dining experience will be unlike any other.
A Word From Our Founders
"The world is a strange and wondrous place, and anyone who's visited Three Portland's Jurassic Quarter will know that it's not the most friendly either. I invite you to let Ambrose be a safe harbour for you to enjoy the unusual delights of the universe without the horror, without the strife, without needing to concern yourself with anything beyond what you order.
"If you ever see our sign, no matter who you are, you have my word that you'll find something to suit your tastes."
-Chaz Ambrose
"Our objective as a business is to provide excellent dining to all parts of the anomalous community. We shall continue to create establishments in locations where this would prove to be financially sustainable, and seek out new talent to help develop new and interesting recipes for our kitchens."
-Marius

Our Business Partners
The Ambrose Restaurant is a proud partner of The Circus of the Disquieting, with whom we have a standing order to purchase the absolutely delicious Midnight Cotton Candy, and through whom we have established a supply route for kraken egg caviar.
We also maintain positive relations with Marshall, Carter and Dark, LLP, and provide culinary expertise where required. In return, we get discounts on certain supplies, and a steady supply of Siberian Firebird.
As any respectable company should, we attempt to keep positive relationships with everyone we can. This isn't always possible, however, as the Foundation, Global Occult Coalition and more are rather keen on seeing us out of business. If you're currently in possession of atypical edibles (and aren't working for the buzzkills we just mentioned), then we'd love for you to get in touch.

Employment Opportunities
When it comes to writing in the 'character' of the Ambrose Restaurant, try to be as lighthearted as you can without devolving into nonsense. That doesn't mean you shouldn't try to explore serious themes, far from it, just remember that Ambrose is far away from the doom and gloom of other parts of the Foundationverse.
One thing you should be keeping in mind with Ambrose is that they are, at the end of the day, a restaurant. Focus on the people, but also focus on the food. Don't ever make it seem like a place that a customer wouldn't want to sit down and enjoy a nice meal in. Unless you're re-imagining it, of course.
When it comes to setting, the Ambrose Restaurant is far behind the veil, steeped up to the eyeballs in the anomalous. They're frequent collaborators with other anomalous groups of interest, and are always looking for new and stranger ways of making a meal of it. As for the timeline, there's currently no fixed dates, however, we know that they formed as a group some time in the last decade or so. From there, they set up with suppliers, and operated normally until the Foundation discovered them during the events of Dining Out, and began to track and isolate their baseline reality establishments.
How to Write an Ambrose Format
Unfortunately, the Ambrose Format does not have an easy copyable template. The reason for this is simple: no two menus are going to look aesthetically the same, depending on the type of food served and the price range of the establishment. The menu should fit the restaurant, and every Ambrose Restaraunt is different.
The format consists of two parts: the menu and the reviews.
The menu is where you put all of the good items. These should be varied, without too much repetition or similarity between items. A general rule of thumb is that there are three possible reasons a dish is anomalous: ingredients, preparation, or effect. A dish might be made from a dragon, it might do something special when served, or finally, give the user some benefit. Generally, a single restaurant will stick to one of these - but feel free to mix!
When making a menu div, keep this in mind: Try to select colors that work together and seem accurate for the restaurant in question. Look up menus to get a good idea of what it'll look like. Check fonts - it's always good to have one in your menu. Prices can be included, optionally. Don't just copy the CSS of another menu - look at real world menus and create your own visual appearance to match!
For the reviews, you can copy the framing device that sets them up from another format. The first three Ambrose Formats all had different review formats, so you can take one of those or make your own. It's versatile. This is where you should talk about the food, and give more opinions and description of it. You're rather limited in the menu, but you had a lot more freedom say whatever you want in the reviews.
Broadly speaking, an Ambrose Format is going to describe food from two perspectives: the first is trying to sell you on the food, and make it seem as appealing as possible. The second is a more realistic perspective, talking about reactions to the food. The contrast between these two perspectives is vital to the format.
Generally speaking, reviews are going to be the easier place to convey the narrative of the work - it's possible to do it in the menu, but the nature of that makes it more of a list of interesting items, with what really makes the piece work coming in to play in the reviews. Do not treat the reviews as an afterthought: they are the primary focus of the work.

STATUS: ●くろまる ACTIVE ●くろまる
THREAT LEVEL: ●くろまる YELLOW ●くろまる (NON-HOSTILE, NORMALCY THREATENING)
Mobile Task Force Lambda-14 ("One Star Reviewers") is a task force which specialises in retail-oriented locations and anomalies, be they singular restaurants or entire shopping districts displaying anomalous properties.
Since their initial investigation of an Ambrose restaurant, MTF Lambda-14 has concentrated on dealing with this specific group, in whatever form they might take.
Lambda-14 is comprised of two containment teams, fifty mobile agents, ten thaumaturgy specialists, and twenty anomalous art specialists. They are based out of containment Site-34 in Southern California, though their nature as an MTF means that they don't stay there for very long.
Known Bases of Operations:
- Portlands
- Backdoor Soho
- London
Rules of Engagement:
GoI-116 associated subjects are non-hostile and will typically attempt to flee when confronted by Foundation personnel. Some subjects are known to possess anomalous properties which may pose a threat.
Approach with caution and do not engage in combat unless instigated.
Persons of Interest:
- Chaz Ambrose: Male, age unknown. Believed to be the founder of GoI-116. Baseline human, but is known to possess minor Class-5 anomalous properties.
- Marius: No surname is known. Co-owner presumed to control the business side of GoI-116.
