History
Moa shipment and popularity
Directly before the glassing of Reach in 2552, the restaurant received a shipment of moa from the planet. With most of Reach's native moa wiped out during the battle, Have S'Moa had ownership over the largest moa population. Due to the species' rarity, their value skyrocketed and made Wiljax Brantley a very rich man practically overnight. The restaurant quickly grew popular after the war, with moa nuggets becoming an incredibly expensive delicacy among wealthy Unified Earth Government dignitaries.[1]
Post-war
Arturo Bustamante included items themed around Have S'moa in his cookbook.[2]
