Chapter 6

## Part 6: The Culinary Awakening

As days passed, Su Feifei noticed something extraordinary happening to her zombie customers. With each meal she prepared, they seemed... different.

### The Transformation Begins

One-Arm Larry, who previously could only grunt, started forming coherent sentences. Toothless Joe began reading a newspaper left behind by a human visitor. Big Bertha started organizing the other zombies, creating a surprisingly efficient dining system.

"It's the food," Su Feifei realized. Her carefully crafted recipes weren't just feeding them�"they were *healing* and *evolving* their deteriorating brain functions.

### Unexpected Intelligence

The zombies' improvements were remarkable:

- Their speech became clearer

- Motor skills dramatically improved

- Complex reasoning emerged

- Memory fragments started returning

"My stew is zombie brain medicine," she muttered, watching Larry now discuss complex economic theories with another zombie.

### The Scientific Discovery

The human survivors who frequented her bistro were stunned. Researchers began taking notes and collecting samples of her cooking.

"Your food is reconstructing neural pathways," the scarred woman scientist explained. "Each ingredient seems strategically chosen to repair zombie brain damage."

Su Feifei winked. "Secret family recipe."

### A New Civilization Emerges

Zombies were transforming from mindless creatures into functioning, intelligent beings. They started remembering their past lives, skills, and personalities.

The world was about to change�"all because of one green-skinned chef and her magical cooking.
