Vera, I just have to say — this was the best crêpe I’ve ever had in my life. The texture was absolutely perfect — golden and delicate on the outside, soft and delicious on the inside.

TanTan Ramen is my go-to dish. Broth - yes, noodles - amazing, ground pork - great. ADD egg, egg is so good 🤤. Do not recommend adding chasu pork.
