Spider Diner owner R. Aknid loves puzzles almost as much as she loves hot fried insects. When you ask her the daily lunch special, she simply gestures to a half-finished web at the front of the diner.

Each strand of the web consists of 3 letters and some number of spaces. Can you mentally finish spinning the web, laying one strand on top of the other so that the letters and spaces are properly aligned, and figure out today's special?
