the fish soup with milk was the best soup out of all the choices we had (tried tomato, tomyum, herbal chicken). without burpple beyond it would be pretty pricey!! one set cost 49.99 plus additional charges on soup bases and staple (for the lu rou fan) - but this was pretty good. rice portions were small too. think this would be slightly filling for a small eater, but def not enough for someone who eats more~
