Today I
forgot that rule, and whilst I have come back from lunch having escaped from
too much damage, the white shirt that I put on fresh this morning will definitely have
to take one or two stain-removing cycles through the laundry to get back to its
original state.
As I am
sure you can imagine, a spicy bowl of ramen (noodles, big chunks of meat and a spicy red broth) is a daunting prospect for a
spiller at the best of times. Add a white shirt, chopsticks and a spoon way
bigger than you mouth to the mix and you will have a fair idea of just what I
was up against today!
Following a
bit of a queue to get a table at Ramen
Santouka, we eventually made our way through a lunchtime feast of pork
cheek starters and delicious spicy pork ramen. The atmosphere was pretty fast-food focused, but the ramen and sides really were delicious, and whilst it was incredibly filling it's a great choice of food for lunchtime. It was a really tasty lunch, and I am
very happy to know that this place is just walking distance from the office.
Now I just
need to hope that I can get the stain out of this shirt…I might need to stop in at the shops on my way home to find something strong enough. All I kept thinking during the lunch was that they would have given
me a bib at Pho in Soho. I clearly
need to work on my Asian eating skills. Maybe it’s time to ban all cutlery
other than chopsticks and soup spoons from the flat – I am sure that that’s
going to be the best way to learn fast! Nick will love that plan...maybe.
