Notes on the Water is the approximate Federation Standard language translation for the name of a café located in the town of Lingasha on the planet Alonis. During the 2290s decade, the café was well-known for the music acts that played there in the evenings. In the year 2293, Ambassadors Spock and Alexandra Tremontaine visited the café following their tour of one of the planet's museums. (TOS - Crucible novel: The Fire and the Rose)
