Food, Glorious Food (Not AMH Food)
Mar. 7th, 2005 06:37 pmUnusually for a student, I hadn't tried Super Noodles until yesterday evening, when I bought a few packets as an alternative to the ramen that I usually bring back from America when I'm over there. Having chosen to ignore the cooking instructions, I just made it in exactly the same way as I always had, and this process resulted in something very ramen-like in many properties. In fact, I'm having a second packet just now after being unable to face another AMH chicken risotto. One major difference between the British and Japanese versions, though, is that I can literally feel the fat coating the noodles sliding down my throat. It feels somehow more Scottish.
Also new on the Café de Room 71 menu is Crunchy Nut Clusters. They're like all the greatness of CNCF (no, not carbonitrofluroride) with the shape of Country Crisp. However, its weaknesses is that like the latter cereal, it lacks cohesion, and tends to consist of a lot of atomic particles which degenerate into a porridge-like mass when milk is added. I think some sort of sweet adhesive such as honey may solve this problem.karol_j showed me this a while ago. If you're absolutely sick of All Your Base jokes it's unlikely to change that, but I found it entertaining - perhaps mostly because of Andrew Kepple's involvement in it. Zero Wing Rhapsody!
