The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

If your planet has been destroyed to make way for a new hyperspace bypass, your best friend turns out to be from a small planet somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse (and not Guilford, as you’d thought), and you find yourself in the company of a two-headed man who also happens to be the president of the galaxy, and a beautiful girl you utterly failed to connect with at a party in a city that no longer exists. . . you probably shouldn’t be surprised to find yourself having breakfast at Milliways, the Restaurant at the end of the Universe. . .
