We chose the Sichuan and the braised pork flavoured noodles, with sides of pierogi dumplings and Smoked duck dumplings. The noodles had the perfect texture, really chewy and not too oily. I preferred the Sichuan flavour, as it had a mild hint of spice and some crispy bits inside. I must say I liked the eggs as I am a big fan of those hanjuku eggs with leaky middles. The smoked duck dumplings were wrapped with a gyoza-like shell and filled with bits of duck and veggie. It was my first time trying pierogi and Iโ€™m really surprised that these are filled with truffle potato. The skin had more of a doughy, crispy feel. I actually quite like these and might order them again the next time I come. The sriracha cream served together was a really good sauce to complement its creamy filling. For the drinks, the grapefruit thyme green tea was mainly dominated by the sour grapefruit, making it a refreshing complement to the meal. The osmantus longan lime drink was really unusual, with more tea undertones. There was also osmantus jelly added, which had a more agar like texture. Both drinks were really more on the less sweet side, relying more on the natural flavours of the stuff added.
Iโ€™ve heard others say the portion is abit small but to me itโ€™s honestly a really good sharing portion. I left feeling like it was just just nice(not too full not hungry either) and itโ€™s probably going to be a place I go with friends to just eat a chill lunch!!:))
