“Do you see any happy faces around here?” he asked, indicating to the servers that they would have the catfish....

...Daine made a face. She wanted no lands or titles from the Emperor Mage! With a sigh she returned her ears to their normal shape and concentrated on the meal and her companions. As the sky darkened, they nibbled fried pockets of noodles and pork in a sweet sauce and talked about Kaddar’s mother and sisters. Kitten, thinking herself unobserved, gobbled boar’s tail with hot sauce, then had to leap for the water pitcher.

So in the very first line of Emperor Mage, Kaddar is listed as "prince of Siraj."

In Tempests and Slaughter, Ozorne is super racist against the Sirajit.

He must really hate Kaddar, and whoever Kaddar's father is.

“Would you like to visit the university tomorrow?” asked Kaddar, offering her a bowl of olives. “Master Lindhall will be here, and he’s said he wants you to see his workroom.”

“I’d like that. Kaddar, what did your uncle say when you told him about the lightning that-”

She stopped, puzzled. The prince was shaking his head vigorously. “Don’t talk about it,” he ordered, lips barely moving.

...”Why? It happened, didn’t it? And he can’t have a listening spell on us, or Kit would’ve said something.” The dragon, sampling pumpkin slices stewed in cumin, and sea urchins in bay sauce, shook her head. “So why can’t we talk about it?” Daine asked reasonably.

...They had just finished their main course, stuffed goose, when Numair came over to their table.

...Daine peeled an orange for Zek while Kitten munched on a goose bone.

...Kaddar drained his cup of pomegranate juice. “Nonsense. He was just looking out for you.”

A fair bit going on here! Olives are olives, pomegranate juice is pomegranate juice, and oranges are oranges, of course.

For the pumpkin slices stewed in cumin, we got a sugar pumpkin and stewed it according to these directions, adding a significant amount of cumin in with the sugar and soy sauce.

Sea urchins in bay sauce were made using store-bought sushi uni, and soaked in this bay sauce which paired really well!

The goose was roasted and paired with this delicious stuffing that my guests ended up asking for the recipe!
