Fancy a steak?
There is something about a steak - a juicy, melt in the mouth and full of flavour steak that really satisfies.

3) Expect good ramen – very, very good ramen …

We were far too adventurous to be limited by the set menu so we ordered the following from the selection of ~20 dishes on offer with my thoughts on each…
