A cozy near-future novella about a crew of leftover robots opening their very own noodle shop, from acclaimed sci-fi author Annalee Newitz.
You don’t have to eat food to know the way to a city’s heart is through its stomach. So when a group of deactivated robots come back online in an abandoned ghost kitchen, they decide to make their own way doing what they know: making food—the tastiest hand-pulled noodles around—for the humans of San Francisco, who are recovering from a devastating war.
But when their robot-run business starts causing a stir, a targeted wave of one-star reviews threatens to boil over into a crisis. To keep their doors open, they’ll have to call on their customers, their community, and each other—and find a way to survive and thrive in a world that wasn’t built for them.

Critic reviews
"This is a story—about building community despite adversity, fighting for your rights and individuality, and creating art that you want to see in the world—that I didn't know I needed right now. And it was so much fun to read!”—Martha Wells, author of The Murderbot Diaries and Witch King
"This book will make you hungry. It will also keep you warm."—Becky Chambers, author of the Monk and Robot series

If you're a fan of Becky Chambers' Monk & Robot, and other cozy reads, I can't recommend this enough. I loved all the robots, the story was sweet, the plot was good, and just like a great restaurant, it left me satisfied (but still kinda wanting more). Great narrator too! (also did Monk & Robot!)
Also peep the cover blurb from Martha 🥰
I love these bots

The world building is great and I'd love to explore more of the world. I could easily imagine the characters and the lovely shop they made together.
I'll be picking up a physical copy too to support the author
Cute short book
