I'm going to be generous with the rating as they are generous with their unlimited refills on noodles! The whole concept of deconstructed noodles and assembling it yourself is really fun experience. But once it's mixed, it's nothing more than regular Yunnan rice noodles. But I have to say, I am really happy with the 10 side dishes they offer: beef, lettuce, bean curd, quail egg, ham, chicken wing, corn, pickled cabbage, omasum, and meat sauce!
My boyfriend ordered the Original and I got the Spicy soup base. Out of both, the Oriental Original was better because you could taste the flavour profile much more. Regardless, everything was tasty and didn't disappoint but it wasn't something I would crave for more. I do appreciate that the urn keeps the heat, it stayed relatively warm throughout my whole meal.
The only downside is that there seems to be online two pieces of meat provided in the set of side dishes. There's a limited selection of meat at an additional cost of ~$2-3 that is added into the soup already. It's definitely something to try out once but I'm not sure if I would frequent it often at their price point. I'd rather hop to Deer Garden for more ingredient selection!
