Dietary notes

  • Vegetarian tag: the indexed dish contains no meat or fish, but confirm stock, sauces and cooking fats with the kitchen.

How to order it

  • Slurping is normal in noodle cultures. Ask for a spoon or fork if chopsticks are not your thing.
  • The indexed version is mild. Heat levels still vary by kitchen, so ask for chilli or sauce on the side.
  • Ask for the price before ordering, especially where the menu lists market price or sells by weight.
