We placed an order for delivery, and got the fried pork udon noodles, which my boyfriend really liked however I thought they were a bit greasy and didn't have much pork.

Spare ribs with chilli and garlic. They were really nice - lots of meat on the ribs and very tender. Couldn't detect any fat or gristle at all.
