Collect all of the Old Granny's 10 Food Soul Anecdote stories

 Oh my, this restaurant really does suit my tastes.
 Not only is the food good, all of the children are adorable.
 Macaron and Crepe are such energetic and outgoing young women. They bring back memories of when I was their age.
 The years really are unforgiving...
 I hope they retain this state of mind forever.
 When I see them looking so happy, I feel happy as well.
 **A Lovely Soul**

 Oh! This dish's texture-- compared to last time, it's much easier to chew.
 Did Sakuramochi make this?
 Last time, I had a hard time eating due to my bad teeth. But this time, suddenly the food is conveniently tender.
 That young woman's heart must be very tender as well.
 The next time I see her, I'll ask her how she made it.
 And I'll make some dim sum for the children to sample.
 **★Misunderstanding**

 Today I saw a young man lying down by the entrance. He looked slovenly and pitiful.
 I was going to drape my cloak over his shoulders, when he suddenly got to his feet and ran off.
 I thought he was a destitute person who'd made his way here. I never would have guessed he was this restaurant's Beggar's Chicken.
 This shop doesn't seem like the type to not pay its employees.
 But I really can't bear to stand by and watch...
 The next time I run into him, I'll give him something warm to eat.
 **★ A Warm Moment**

 Um...
 I'm here, what can I do for you?
 Are the children here today?
 The children? Who do you mean?
 Gyoza, Hawethorne Ball, and Double Scoop
 I always like to have a bit of noise in the background. Thanks to them, this place usually reminds me of when my own children were playing.
 Indeed, in this whole restaurant, those guys are the naughtiest.
 There's nothing wrong with being a bit naughty. Weren't we all children once?
 If you see them, just say that Granny brought them some sweets, and they should remember to come get them~
 Okay~!
 **★★ Worry Needlessly**

 Earlier when I was walking through the park, I heard a flute, and walked towards the sound.
 When I got close to the lake, I saw a woman in the water. I thought she was drowning.
 Whoa, what happened next?
 I never would have expected what happened next. The lower half of her body was actually a fish tail! When she casually swam through the water, it was like an scene out of a dream.
 That's Sweet & Sour Fish!
 Oh, someone from your shop?
 Yes. Sometimes when the weather's hot, she goes to the park and swims in the lake.
 Although she looks frail, you definitely don't have to worry about her when she's in the water!
 Oh, that puts my mind at ease.
 Hey, didn't you say you heard a flute?
 Right, right. Look how bad my memory is. Now that I think about it, that girl didn't have a flute in her hands.
 That was probably Cloud Tea. Sometimes Sweet & Sour Fish sings along with the flute.
 Now that's something this old woman would love to hear.
 **★★ The Source of the Chaos**

 Ma'am, can I bother you for a minute?
 What is it?
 We're currently conducting a customer opinion survey about the restaurant. Would you be interested in sharing your thoughts?
 My thoughts? The people in this restaurant are all wonderful, I have to say. ... Hmm, oh yes.
 Aren't there some people who've fought inside your restaurant?
 Fought?
 One has horns on his head and carries two swords. The other one looks like a vampire...
 Oh, you're talking about Red Wine and Steak.
 That sort of behavior is far too dangerous. Tell them in no uncertain terms--they need to settle their differences with words, not fists!
 That might be a bit difficult...
 Why?
 Even if we scold them, it won't do any good. They've always been like this... they mix as well as oil and water.
 If they've always been like this, why do they still want to see each other every day?
 Uh... because... who knows.
 **★★★ Positive Attitude**

 Ma'am, you didn't bring your family today?
 They're all very busy. I went out for a walk by myself, and was passing by here, so I came in.
 When the weather's nice, we should make the most of it! There's a person at this shop who frequently encourages us to go outside more often.
 Oh, that sounds like a young woman I know. Is here name Qingtuan?
 That's right. You've met her?
 I originally bumped into her on one of my walks. We still chat often.
 So you've known each other for a long time?
 Yes. You could say that the reason i come to this restaurant so often is because she constantly recommended it. She said the people here were all wonderful.
 I came to see for myself, and it was just as she said. Everyone here is so optimistic, that it raises my spirits as well.
 That's because Qingtuan infects everyone around her with her optimism.
 How wonderful. I'm sure you'll stay in business for a long time~
 I'm positive we will!
 **★★★ The Professional**

 Ai-yi-yi-yi~
 What's the matter?
 I didn't sleep well last night.
 You didn't have a bad dream, did you?
 I really don't remember. My stars, when was the last time I had a dream?
 Whatever the cause, it looks like it's affecting the quality of your sleep.
 There's no helping that.
 Escargot is an expert when it comes to sleep. If you have a chance, why don't you go talk to him?
 Oh, there are young people like that? Very well, I'll definitely go look for him.
 But, he's usually sleeping, so running into him won't be easy.
 What commitment! He's really dedicated to his research.
 That's one way to look at it...
 **★★★★ Over Enthusiastic**

 Ooh, this back isn't getting any younger...
 Are you not feeling well?
 It's not that I'm not feeling well. This morning, I was crossing the street, but since my legs aren't that spry, I fell behind the crowd.
 In the end, that Tempura boy saw me from the other side of the street, and managed to help me.
 Wasn't that a good thing?
 It was a good thing, just a little bumpy.
 Bumpy?
 He had me sit on his shoulder, and then he charged across the road. But... he ran too fast, and halfway across the street I sprained my back.
 Whoa, haven't you gone to the doctor to get it looked at?
 Afterwards, Miso Soup came, and he took me to the hospital.
 That's good. Luckily, Miso Soup was there too.
 **★★★★ Daily Good Deed**

 Hey, it looks like you brought your own ingredients today. Are you going to have the chef cook them for you?
 No, yesterday I made plans with Laba Congee. We're going to cook some food for the less fortunate.
 Doing a good deed? You really are an angel.
 When I saw what Laba Congee wanted to do, I took it upon myself to help out.
 With a task that big, one person could never pull it off. But many hands make light work.
 Besides, helping youngsters out makes me feel useful~
 Okay, I hear you. Wait for me to finish what I'm doing, then I'll come help too.
 Oh, well, thank you so much~!
