Sisko Week - Day Seven                                                        

                                                                AU - Deep Dish Nine 

 Benjamin Sisko is a widower raising alone his son, Jake. They lead a normal life, until Sisko decides that it’s time to bring a change into their lives. 

He buys an establishment on the frontier between the Alpha and the Gamma cities, and decides to dedicate his life to an old passion: cooking.  

With this in mind, Sisko opens Deep Dish Nine, a cozy and modest pizza place. Helped at first by his son and his old friends, the Dax sisters, Sisko soon starts to employ a very different range of people, who includes a med student, a wonderful but stubborn Bajoran woman and a family man trying to obtain a second income. 

What seemed to be an unambitious investment soon turns into one of the most popular places in the Quadrant, and the ragtag group of employees Sisko hired turned into a second family for him. Even Sisko’s father is impressed… even if he would rather his son had made use of his college degree and had become an astronaut.
