I'll be your server. Are we a party of one? No, I'm meeting some friends, they're late.

Something to snack on while you wait? Perhaps some delicious noodles.

That's using your Nudils, sir. This is a Nudils of the world, after all.

But you're going to need to be way more specific. What kind of a Nudils would you like? Exactly.

Um, do you have any long noodles? We have spaghetti, linguine, fattuccini, bucatinny,

tripleini, tagliolini, papardelli, lasagnette. We have a Udon, Lomaine, Ram and rice noodles,

stick or thread, and a cellophane noodles, also known as a glass noodles. Wow! Maybe I'll start with

something a little less slurpy. Do you have any noodles and fun shapes? We have spirals for

Folly, aka Bautais, Radio Tori, Capaletti, Campanelle, Cavettapi, Rotelli, otherwise known as

Wheels, Cavettelli, Gimelli. Shall I go on? I can't decide. Can I get some Bautais, Wheels and Spirals?

Absolutely not. One cannot simply mix Nudils. For one thing, they boil for a different length of time.

And secondly, each shape has its own specific purpose. Really? I thought the purpose was to film me up.

No! Each pasta shape is meant to be perfectly paired with its sauce. You don't put heavy sauce

on a thin noodle. It'd be crushed under its own weight. And no thin sauce on a wide noodle.

It would slip right off, not to mention cheese sauces. Oh, cheese. I'd love some noodles with cheese,

please. A very well. A manegoti, tortellini, ravioli, rotini, conchiliets. Hey kid, can you help me out?

What's your favorite noodle and cheese? Go ahead, shout it out. Ah! Papa, you lured choice.
