Because Adrian Zhekova was hungover, eating something sour would help stimulate his appetite and relieve the hangover.
Spicy and sour would be the best.
But since he had just woken up and was on an empty stomach, it wasn't good to eat something with such a strong taste.
When Cindy Clarke went to the Main Hall earlier, she had brought back some bone soup that Aunt Evans had made in a thermos.
It was perfect for reheating and serving as the soup base for their noodles.
She also took some small tomatoes.
These small tomatoes were only slightly larger than cherry tomatoes.
Cindy fried the small tomatoes in a pan until their skins were slightly charred.
The tomato skins had become wrinkled and the flesh inside had softened, no longer as plump and full as when they were fresh.
But now, the slightly charred and softened small tomatoes had a tempting appearance that greatly stimulated one's appetite.
The cooked noodles were neatly arranged in each bowl.
