Arki Aquo

Arki Aquo (Sugar Spirit) is a dessert and fast food company based in Huenarno. It is sold internationally, with locations in ## countries and a total of ### locations. Arki Aquo is one of the largest Huenarnoan chain restaurants domestically and abroad, and is often a source of national pride.

Arki Aquo locations are often painted bright pink inside and outside. According to legend, this is because the original Arki Aquo was vandalized and painted the entire building bright pink, and the company’s founder, Likir Atist, liked it so much he kept it. If true, this may explain the tradition of Arki Aquo establishments having a “graffiti wall”, where anyone can leave a message or piece of art. This has given rise to some controversy about the company’s handling of hate speech written on graffiti walls.

Arki Aquo is primarily a dessert brand. It started as a ninmi parlor, and has since expanded into other foods. Arki Aquo ninmi is known for incorporating flavors unfamiliar to foreign palettes, including pumpkin, yucca, and guava. More familiar flavors include chocolate, vanilla, and blueberry. While traditional ninmi uses ujox milk, Arki Aquo provides goat’s milk and even non-dairy substitutes, and Muscovy duck eggs are usually substituted with chicken eggs outside of Vidina. Other popular sweets include candied fruits, various smoothies, and cream-filled ghini.

Despite specializing in sweet dishes, Arki Aquo does have a small savory menu. Perhaps the most famous of these savory meals is the jalepeño mac and cheese. It was originally served in celebration of the opening of the first establishment in Watan, and proved so popular that it became a brand specialty.
