as you've all probably noticed it's been
quite some time since the map has sent
us on a mission of friendship yeah ever
since starlight messed with it to go
back in time and trying to change
history
yes since then but as part of her
studies starlight's been assisting me
and together we think we've come up with
a spell that will get it working again
now without further ado
[Music]
oh
fluttershy and twilight and appaloosa no
rainbow dash in las vegas no rainbow
dash and twilight yeah
no twilight and twilight and twilight's
castle
me me
and rarity
i hope it's some far away place that no
pony has gone before
well
maybe not too far away an adventure
somewhere that has modern conveniences
would be preferable
[Music]
this is wonderful i can check the
boutique perhaps there'll be some social
events that we can attend i'll have to
pack extra outfits
what will i wear
you know some ponies get excited about
the silliest thing
[Music]
my little pony my little
[Music]
big pony
a beautiful heart faithful and strong
sharing kindness
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Music]
as far as finding a friendship problem i
suggest we start at the castle and begin
to question the proof of rarity you
don't find a friendship problem it finds
you we just need to go with the flow and
eventually
we get friendship problems right between
the eyes
well this is a team effort so if you
feel we should go with the flow then
with the flow we shall go
where's the flow saying we should go
you know cancer lot what do you think we
should do
take your pick culture
cuisine
[Music]
oh my well it sounds like your stomach
is saying we should flow towards some
lunch i know just where to go
restaurant row the absolute best place
for fine dining in all of equestria
so many choices where should we go this
one
those ones any establishments that have
this
the three hoof rating
um whose herbs why zesty gourmand the
queen of cuisine when it comes to food
she is the ultimate authority in
canterlot and that's all equestria she
judges a restaurant on cuisine decor and
presentation without her approval a
restaurant simply cannot survive what's
so important about her approval
zesty grew up around fine dining and
every pony hangs on her every word when
it comes to cuisine
wow then the food here must be amazing
lead the way partner
oh
my
presentation
oh
yes very nice
maybe i'm not in the mood for whatever
this is
can we try someplace else
yeah
maybe one more stop
[Music]
nope
maybe instead of trusting somebody
else's hooves i should pick the next
place
very well
[Music]
tasty treat
it's very
rustic
it looks like it hasn't even been rated
thank goodness
[Music]
are we sure they're open
it smells open
are you here for lunch
yes indeedy i'm saffron masala the chef
here at the tasty treat the most exotic
cuisine in canterlot would you like to
hear about the specials we're actually
in a bit of a house please we have a
curry oat cake we'll take one
and a glass sandwich that has been
marinated overnight in a mustard dijon
dressing how can we say no to that
and for you oh me oh i'm fine thank you
no rating
anyway they won't
what's your name coriander cumin are you
a chef here too my daughter cooks i host
then why are you stacking cheers without
customers i have no pony to host for
father stop it don't close up the
restaurant around our guests what does
it matter when they leave nobody else
will be coming in
well your attitude isn't going to bring
anyone in
can't you at least pretend to be
positive
so
good
you are doing enough pretending for the
both of us nobody here wants to try
anything new i know when to throw in the
tower
pinky perhaps we should excuse ourselves
oh rarity try this
maybe if you would listen to my ideas
for once oh yes i did not move halfway
across equestria for my daughter that i
never listened to
rarity i think that friendship problem
just clammed us right between the eyes
these two
oh i don't know darling the food is
excellent but i'm not sure there's much
you and i can do to help them
what would you have me do we can't even
get zesty gorman to come to our
restaurant she took one look at how
empty it was and said it wasn't even
worth reading that's it
yes
uh what's it the flow has led us here
this is our mission we are going to get
you a three-hoof rating and save your
restaurant i can get zesty gourmand here
and i can pack this place with ponies
and how do you intend to do such a thing
just leave it to us
[Music]
father will you please stop packing
things bendy lovely pony comes back and
says she couldn't convince zesty
gourmand to come visit us we will need
to pack all this up i'm just getting a
headstock you really don't know where it
i've done it
see
it took all of my charm and cajoling but
i was able to convince zesty gourmand to
come and try the food what is the catch
ah yes well um there is a bit of a
challenge the only time she can make
herself available is tonight
oh yeah right what is it zesty rates a
restaurant on cuisine decor and
presentation and she has very specific
tastes if she's coming tonight there is
quite a bit of work that needs to get
done like what don't tweak here att*ck
there some slight modifications to the
menu we just need the place to feel more
cosmopolitan
father after rarity went to all of this
trouble for us can't we at least try why
don't i stay behind with coriander to
get the restaurant ready for zesty's
arrival you and saffron can try and drum
up some business one packed restaurant
coming right up
coriander i understand your trepidation
but i promise you we will get those
hoops by making this place feel just
like all of the other restaurants on
restaurant row
oh i hope my father doesn't drive rarity
crazy it'll be fine rarity's gonna make
sure that the tasty treat is the most
unique and beautiful restaurant in
canterlot not like all those stuffy
places on restaurant row
[Music]
here's what i know
if you want to succeed you must follow
the trends that's the key
if you want to show that you've got what
it takes you must be where they want you
to be
[Music]
trust me it's gonna work i swear it's
gonna
work out just
need to change if you want to compete
but fear not for i know what to do
i know it feels strange but trust me
when we're done
we'll make sure that you are here
don't ever change being different is
good don't let what others do be your
cue
you'll never rearrange cause somepony
said you should just trust your heart
and
[Music]
trust me
[Music]
every step of the way because we know
what you need to do and you should know
it too it's gonna work i know it's gonna
work
it's gonna work out just fine trust me
it's gonna work
[Music]
the day is almost over and we haven't
found any ponies what will we do
try harder
[Music]
check out the super stupendous and
amazing cuisine of the tasty treat grand
reopening
how many hooves does it have no hooves
yet but hopefully soon
well when it gets raided let us know
[Music]
oh look at this hun oh the tasty treat
do you think that's a restaurant sugar
yes yes it is we came to canterlot from
minneapolis to be adventurous but so far
the food and all these hoity-toity
places tastes like somepony cooked up
nothing with a side of nothing well
please come try the tasty treat i think
it's going to be exactly what you're
looking for
[Music]
this is going to be exactly what zesty
is looking for
father we're back oh
rarity what did you do
welcome to the tasty treat you can eat
here if you want or not who cares
i know isn't it perfect zesty is sure to
love it i thought we were trying to make
this the most unique and beautiful
restaurant in canterlot not make it
exactly like every other restaurant oh
we want to help our friends by getting
them three hooves that will only happen
if this is like every other restaurant
father what is this
this is what we must cook if we want to
succeed here this isn't what i wanted i
wanted cantaloupe to like us for us
rarity how could you ruin the restaurant
we've helped save the restaurant now
where are the other guests how many
other ponies are coming
two
just two
i thought you said you could pack a
place with ponies no matter what you
said you would make the restaurant
better so i guess we both didn't know
what we were talking about
[Music]
welcome to the tasty treat
what can i get you this evening
i hardly think it matters but by all
means try your best to impress
well we'll both try this special this
evening maybe with a little kick to it
eh yeah we've been craving some food
with actual taste
[Music]
suffer masala what are you doing
i'm trying to save our reputations
i've given it at least a little bit of
flavor no no no that's not what zesty
wants what kind of food expert doesn't
want flavor that's insane
i'm taking this out there
ruined it
i think we are done here
zesty please wait allow me to explain
rarity when it comes to fashion you are
adequate but take some advice from a
friend keep your opinions out of
restaurants sub-standard food laughable
service and i would think even you could
recognize that the decor here is trying
desperately well desperately failing
recommending a disreputable place such
as this could do serious damage to your
social standing disreputable you mean a
place with food that actually tastes
good any pony can throw ingredients
together and create an obvious taste
that uncultured ponies like those two
can register hey
but it takes a true culinary artist to
create a subtle taste the barest hint of
a sensation that's what i bring to
canterlot that's art
[Music]
i'm so embarrassed i don't know that
there are words to adequately express
how truly sorry we are the worst has
happened no use crying over spilled food
now
here this always cheered me up when i
was younger ah
my spicy flat noodle swoop
oh my
he's truly delightful
this is the best thing you've made so
far and i thought the food before was
the best
that's all i've ever wanted to do father
make food for the ponies of canterlot
like the food we made together when i
was younger it has been so long since we
cooked together
remember how you used to hide the
ingredients you did not like
[Laughter]
know what who cares what some stuffy
unicorn things of the food here it's
exquisite that's true and you don't need
three silly hooves in your window to
prove it
that's double true
you just need ponies in here to give it
a chance ponies that will tell everypony
else and catalog that the tasty treat is
the best food in the city that's true
times three
but without zesty's approval no pony
will even try our food
yes they will
pinky we are the perfect team for this
we were just doing the wrong jobs i will
go out and bring the crowd you stay here
and make sure this place is every bit as
unique and rustic as it was the moment
we walked in
and what about us
you two you are going to cook make
whatever you want and make a lot of it i
intend to bring a crowd
the owner of one of the premier
boutiques in canterlot put her stamp of
approval on something that wasn't
fabulous
[Music]
it's almost time is everypony ready for
the grand re-re-opening before we open
my father and i just wanted to say thank
you for all of your help we've both been
so stressed about the restaurant
succeeding that we forgot what it was we
loved about it in the first place
cooking is something we used to love to
do together no matter what happens next
thank you for reminding us of that oh
you guys
[Music]
welcome to the tasty treat
make yourselves comfortable
please feel free to sample the food
what's this
what is every pony doing here this place
has no hooves it is not in keeping with
the level of cuisine that i have set for
canterlot no pony told you this place
was acceptable
uh rarity and her friend said it was
good they told us they told you and who
are they to tell you anything rarity can
tell you what hats to wear with which
skirts her friend can tell you how to
maintain a tragic look for a frizzy mane
they can't tell you what food you can
eat
no we can't and neither can you no pony
has the right to tell these ponies what
to think
zesty you have very
specific and very strange you said very
strange opinions about food damn that's
your right but just because you like
your food a certain way there is no
reason to tell these ponies that they
need to do the same
rarity is right i for one think the food
here is delicious i own the smoked oat
on restaurant row i hate the food we
make from now on it's all smoked basted
and grilled this food is an inspiration
i own the big stop i'm going to make my
mother's bundt cake the way she made it
full of flavor
[Music]
are you sure you wouldn't like to try
the food ignoring a unique and fresh
establishment such as this could do
serious damage to your social standing
[Music]
thank you so much you are both truly
amazing
nothing can stop the dynamic duo of
pinky and rarity
[Music]
my little pony
[Music]
my little pony
[Music]
[Applause]
