"on cue"
Can anybody what this phrase is supposed to mean?
The context I saw is "'200,000 packets of instant noodles arrived the quake-hit country', read the result of a click of the mouse. Three minutes later, right on cue, my stomach started on a distracting symphony of rumbling growls."
I've checked out all possible dictionaries I have access to yet there seemed to be no relevant result at all.
Can anybody explain the meaning of the phrase?
Thank you in advance for it!
