Description
Desmond's Cajun Delights is a soul food restaurant and bar located in Puyallup City. Bought by the runner Sticks, it's also used as a runner meet-up hub and possible safehouse for those that Sticks believes needs it. It's reinforced with bulletproof windows, drones, and bouncers due to the heavy presence of Cutters in the area.
Distinctive Features
The building is two stories tall, accompanied by an expansive basement and attic. On the outside, the walls are made of rustic red and brown concrete brick, with a simply made patio area for smoking and (maybe) dining out (if the air's good enough). It's overall not a restaurant that stands out at the moment, aside from its more rustic architecture; it's when you go inside where you see its distinctive features.
Dining Area
When you go inside, the first thing you'd note is the vast amount of decor catered to New Orleans and the CAS as a whole. It shows newly-made vinyl wooden flooring, the walls surrounded by window paneling, and painted with a rustic reddish-brown. There are posters along the wall to advertise various CAS-branded soy beers and other alcoholic drinks, as well as alcoholic drinks made by the local microbreweries and wineries within Seattle. The bar sits at the back of the room, next to the kitchen; it holds a large island counter and a vast array of white stools, and a bunting banner with the colors red, white, yellow, and blue— the colors of the New Orleans city flag. On the right side of the entrance is a decently sized platforming area, the flooring higher than the rest to give the platformer a greater spotlight. The platforming area looks like it could hold a small band, but not much else. Bright red booths lay next to the windows, and a few standard tables and chairs to occupy the rest of the extra space.
Kitchen, Break Room
Contrary to the dining area, the kitchen is wide and spacious.
Second Floor, Storage Area, Living Quarters
The second story of DCD includes a small living area, next to a decently sized storage room that leads to the attic. The living room acts as a bigger "break room" compared to the one in the kitchen; a large tan couch and Trideo set up alongside a lighter wood vinyl floor and a light brown wall detailed with posters. A smaller bar is set nearby, complete with a cooler for drinks and a fridge for leftovers. A hallway
