What options do we have for moving on from this room or the kitchen?
Shake hit the nail on the head. There is one door left unexplored in the main hall (2a) as well as the staircase. And the dining room (5a) left unexplored on this level.
Astraea you find the door handle turns freely....would you like to open it?
Nikya follows Astraea into the main hall as it is the largest room... you see the staircase and the jester who now sits at the foot of the stairs with his hands on his chin... just staring at you... mighty creepily...
Ralg, you enter the dining room with Shake in tow and find...
5. Dining Room
The centerpiece of this wood-paneled dining room is a carved mahogany table surrounded by eight highbacked chairs with sculpted armrests and cushioned seats. A crystal chandelier hangs above the table, which is covered with resplendent silverware and crystalware polished to a dazzling shine. Mounted above the marble fireplace is a mahogany-framed painting of an alpine vale. The wall paneling is carved with elegant images of deer among the trees. Red silk drapes cover the windows, and a tapestry depicting hunting dogs and horse-mounted aristocrats chasing after a wolf hangs from an iron rod bolted to the south wall.
Shake's eyes bulge as he sees all the silver and crystal, and his fingers start to twitch. He examines the whole room, but pays special attention to the table.
Ralg shrugs. Nothing interesting in the dining room to him. He'll go back in the central area with the stairs and wait for the rest before moving up to the next level.

Perception = 14
There is a splendid meal set for six spread across the table. There appears to be multiple courses starting with fresh warm rolls and hot soup and extending to lovely looking tarts (pies) with everything you could ask for in between. Multiple bottles of wine are set out as well as a couple small kegs of bear on a serving cart / sideboard. The chairs sit empty as if they were set for your group...

Astraea will definitely open the door, prepared to draw her weapon if necessary.
2B. The Cloakroom
You immediately see several black cloaks hanging from hooks on the walls. A top hat sits on a high shelf. Something shimmering catches your eye at the back of the small dark room. You cant quite reach it without stepping in and moving the cloaks aside though.
Ralg would try to determine if the food is safe to eat, as if he were foraging in the wild - color, scent, small taste to detect if anything is off. But he would not sit down. Chairs and place settings are not his norm.

Ralg will head for the dining room (even though he doesn't know what a "dining room" is)

Astraea will head for the unexplored door. Keeping her eye out for anything lurking.

Nikya will go whichever way seems wider because these closed in spaces are dumb (lol)

Ralg and Shake please make perception checks.

Seeing the Jester again, Nikya is just going to have her axe in her hand, ready to smash things if needed.

You get distracted by the delicious looking meal set out on the table and forget all else...
You can also make a perception check as you enter the room if you'd like.
Do you still do this after seeing the food?
