I think part of the problem with the Asian noodles and soups
containing same, is that we have been brought up not to slurp.
But I, too, have not mastered that spoon plus chopsticks
technique. I suppose persisting with that (preferably at home)
would lead to a better ability to do that.

I have never seen noodles twirled around chopsticks!
