"How
did I reach there?"This question is knocking my mind! ...Today, I drove
all the way on SG highway; clouds indicated rains; every five hundred
meters, the vendors with green stacks of fresh corn, with one large
aluminium vessel of boiling corns n a coal sigri for roasted once were
standing on the road side, the aroma emanating filled the air and my
senses too.
Ya....I really dunno how i reached this place called Crazy Noodles, a small food joint with genuine flavours. The door-keeper opened the door with the same smile n i could sense the familiarity on his face. Does he recognize me even today! Isn't it been long back I came here? Probably, it was just last week, or last month. Ah! why get into the confusion of time n space! I m here at my favorite place. Strange though, I am alone! She must be coming! Or may be she is already there waiting for me.
I ordered my favourite noodles with soup; what is it called, Tom-yum, or Yumkum. I can't recall...why can't i open the menu-card? Where is the menu card?
The waiter, who looks more like a bouncer but is ever smiling, greeted me, like always. He placed three glasses of water. Possibly, he guessed that others are coming along. These are the same glasses with pointed bottoms which come to rest, tilted, with a "t-ling" sound. Today, for the first time, i wasn't startled.
Next came the large white bowl, full of the sumptuous delight. I must have ordered dimsums too; cause he is also coming with the cane-steamer. My mouth is watered. I can't wait any more. Its blissful. While I wolfed down the soup, noodles n dimsums, I was still unaware, "How I reached here?"
