Chapter 25 Prawn Ramen (2)
"Noodles, mom, I want to eat noodles too!"
After having a physical examination, Joanna came to the restaurant with her parents. Looking at everyone eating prawn ramen, she couldn't help but pull her mother's clothes and said.
"Dad, I want to eat noodles!" Joanna also pulled her father's clothes and said coquettishly.
Joanna is only five years old this year. Although she seems more mature than children in peacetime because she lives in the end times at such a young age, her parents love her, so she is also a little willful.
She also knew very well that she could only eat the food in this restaurant, which was why she could act so unscrupulously in front of her parents.
"Nana, do you want to eat noodles?" Guan Ya looked at her daughter. She was only five years old but had no baby fat. She felt very distressed.
She bent down and kissed her daughter's forehead and said, "Okay, our whole family will eat this ramen."
Qiao Lin looked at his wife and daughter, asked them to find a place to sit down, and he went to order food.
"Qiao Lin, come here, Nana, come here. The food here in the restaurant is really delicious." Yan Xiyun waved to them excitedly when he saw the Qiao family of three.
"I'm telling you, this ramen is absolutely delicious. The chewy and springy noodles are so fragrant, and the prawn tempura is also very tasty."
“The soup base is also very fragrant, not too greasy, very light but very delicious. It’s so delicious.”
The prawn tempura was soaked in the noodle soup for a while, but it did not affect the crispness of its skin, and it still tasted crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Although prawn tempura is fried, it is not greasy at all, and it goes perfectly well with the light yet fragrant soup base.
This was Yan Xiyun's second bowl of rice. Otherwise, he would not have the energy to greet the three members of the Qiao family. He would just focus on eating.
Look at the other members of their team. They are so busy eating that they can't even lift their heads. They didn't notice the three members of the Qiao family coming in.
"Uncle Xiyun, is this noodle really delicious?" Qiao Na ran to Yan Xiyun and asked while looking at the noodles in front of him.
"Of course it's delicious." Yan Xiyun said confidently. He picked up a noodle and fed it to Qiao Na, saying, "Try it. It's delicious."
Joanna started eating with the chopsticks he handed her. The noodle was not very long, but she ate it very happily.
The noodles are so delicious. Joanna’s eyes are shining and she looks very happy.
"It's so delicious..." After finishing a noodle, Joanna was even more looking forward to the noodles she would eat soon.
"Okay, Nana, we won't disturb your uncle Xiyun from eating." Qiao Lin said, holding his daughter's hand.
"Yeah." Qiao Na followed her father obediently. Before leaving, she waved and thanked Yan Xiyun for giving her a noodle.
Qiao Lin brought his daughter to his wife's side, and the three of them found a seat at the restaurant bar and sat down, waiting for the noodles to be served.
Because there were more customers placing orders, He Zui made the prawn ramen much faster. After Qiao Lin and the other three waited for more than ten minutes, the noodles were ready.
Because there are no waiters in the restaurant now, and the store manager Chen Wenjiu has been ordered by He Zui not to do the work of a waiter, the guests have to get their meals themselves.
When He Zui prepares a meal, he will place it on the kitchen counter so that customers can take it directly.
When picking up your meal, you can simply swipe your information card on the payment machine, just like you used to swipe your card when eating in the school cafeteria.
Qiao Lin went over and brought over three bowls of noodles, placing them in front of his wife and daughter one by one.
Guan Ya and Qiao Na sniffed, the mother and daughter's expressions identical as they exclaimed in ecstasy, "What a nice smell."
"Mom, I don't know how." Joanna looked up at her mother and said, looking at the chopsticks next to the bowl of noodles with some distress.
She really wants to eat noodles, but she doesn't know how to use chopsticks.
Yes, Jonah doesn't know how to use chopsticks.
Two years ago, she was only three years old, and she wasn't even three years old yet. Before she went to kindergarten, she used a spoon to eat.
As for the kind of chopsticks used by children, she had never used them either.
The end of the world came before Joanna learned to eat by herself. The food she ate afterwards was basically not proper meals and she didn't even need chopsticks.
So now when she needs to use chopsticks to eat noodles, Joanna doesn't know how to use them.
"Nana..." Guan Ya just remembered that before the end of the world, because of the doting of her, her husband, and the elders in the family, her daughter still couldn't use chopsticks.
"Don't worry, go ask the hotel staff for a fork or children's chopsticks." Qiao Lin comforted his wife.
Qiao Lin stood up again and went to the kitchen counter to ask if they had forks or children's chopsticks. Chen Wenjiu nodded and said, "Yes, do you want a fork for eating noodles or children's chopsticks?"
"Let's use a fork." Qiao Lin thought for a while and said that his daughter might not be used to using children's chopsticks, so he should let her use a fork first.
"Okay." Chen Wenjiu handed a fork for eating noodles to Qiao Lin and watched him leave with a smile.
She now understood why [tableware] was among the basic and ordinary items she had drawn.
Because there are many people like Joanna who can't use chopsticks, and these tableware can be packed together with the guests when they pack their food.
Of course, there are tableware in the restaurant. Guests dining in the restaurant will generally not lack chopsticks, spoons, or the like. However, tableware such as forks and children's chopsticks are basically [tableware] items drawn from Chen Wenjiu's card drawing.
This thing is still very useful.
She was confused before. The restaurant clearly had tableware, so why did it give her a [tableware] card when she drew the card?
Qiao Lin returned to his seat with a fork and handed it to his daughter. "Okay, Nana can eat the noodles now."
"Yeah." Joanna nodded and took the fork. She waited obediently for her father to come back before starting to eat. She did not eat the prawn tempura in the bowl of noodles when her father went to get her fork.
Joanna took a fork, poked the prawn, picked it up and took a bite. Half of the prawn was soaked and did not make a "crunching" sound when bitten, but the skin of the other half was still crispy and still made a "crunching" sound.
When Joanna heard the slight sound, her eyebrows raised with joy, and then she was attracted by the fragrance in her mouth.
The shrimp meat was sweet and fresh, and the crust was just the right amount of salty and bland. Five-year-old Joanna was fascinated by this fried food.
No one can resist fried food, it's so delicious.
Moreover, the prawn tempura made by He Zui is not greasy, and I want to eat more after eating one.
A bowl of shrimp ramen comes with four shrimp tempura, and Joanna ate all four shrimps in one breath.
As she ate, she swung her short legs, which couldn't reach the floor, and shook her head happily.
This prawn is so delicious. Nana has never eaten anything so delicious before. She wants to eat such delicious prawns in the future.
