Another Food Update

Here's another update on my project to list all the food and drink in the drama. I started out with a preliminary list based on skimming, my memory and other people's rewatches. I'm now slowly working through a full rewatch. I've been doing 2-3 episodes a week and posting here with updates every couple of weeks. The master post has now been updated through episode 30. I’ve added about 20 new events between 25 and 30 inclusive.

This update is mostly about smart things other people have said, plus a few more thoughts and questions. Some of these episodes didn’t have any events before this update but now they all have at least one.

In the last update [personal profile] starriewolf helped translate the signs in episode 19 and even identified the food in the restaurant ad!

[personal profile] starriewolf also left a great comment on Shen Wei’s fruit bowl on the main post. Now I regret not being able to include all the decorative fruit bowls in my list!

And the helpful anon commented to identify the coffee maker in Dr Cheng’s office -- which apparently is not a model which can automatically add in milk/creamer. So I’m back to being pluzzed about the milk in the coffee.

Here are my notes and questions form episodes 25 to 30:

Can anyone translate the signs in the restaurant where Da Qing and Da Ji have their date? You can see it at 19:18 in episode 26. Can anyone identify what they are eating? I can make out a pile of pale green stuff, and some round orange things but nothing in detail.

We learn that GCC brings food to several graves including cup noodles for the novel writer and chocolate for the game playing kid. I’m especially charmed by the cup noodles since that dude had mantelpiece full of them.

Characters are frequently shown to be drinking out of mugs that we can’t see what’s inside. But we do know that both tea and coffee are on offer at SID headquarters
