Last night, I failed at a mission.  Not a very important mission, but a culinary mission that I wanted to be successful.

When I went to the mall, it was an hour before closing.  At the food court, I went over to Yummy Japan, hoping that I could have some of their Kato Chicken with noodles.  I stand in line and give them my order.  Their response?  “We’re closed.”

I take a closer look as I watch the employees working really hard to get everything cleaned so that they could leave for the night.  This was a big disappointment.  You sir, have just lost your business for the day.  Better luck tomorrow, I guess…

And that day is today.  After I work, I will set out on my mission.  The mission that I failed at last night.  I will go to the Midland Mall food court.  I will order the Kato Chicken with noodles.  Then, I will smile victoriously as I eat every bite.  Every chunk of cooked lettuce and other vegetables.  Every fried crispy piece of Kato Chicken.  And yes, every noodle.  And after that last bite, I will say  “Mission Successful”.

 

Muse:  You’re making me hungry!

Good.  Because I’m hungry myself!  Hungry for some Yummy Japan.  That will come after today’s shift at work.  Good things are worth waiting for…

Muse:  Not so for me.  I can go and get it whenever I please.

Couldn’t you just make it magically appear?

Muse:  If I knew the right recipe, yes.  I don’t know how to make Kato Chicken with noodles…

Neither do I, but they do.   Time to get ready.

Muse:  I’ll let you.  Time to work some more on that gift.  Tee hee…

 

So with that, I will set out on my mission after work.  I will have dinner at Yummy Japan and my mission will be a success.

Today’s high is going to be 34 degrees and the silver lining will be having some delicious Kato Chicken at Yummy Japan tonight.

To those of you who love eating food court food at the mall, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Muse:  That does sound pretty good.  I think that I’ll go and get some right now!
