A1 Bak Kut Teh Instant Noodles

I love Bak Kut Teh especially because of the strong herbal smell and taste of dong guai.

However I do not know how to make real Bak Kut Teh so I satisfy my cravings by going to restaurants.

A1 also does a Bak Kut Teh soup pack so their instant noodles are probably not far off.

I have tried instant noodles in Bak kut teh soup but because there was real spare ribs in the broth, I found it quite oily, also the type of instant noodles they used did not match the broth.

When I opened the packet for the A1 Bak Kut Teh instant noodles, I knew I was going to like the noodles, because they were thinner than the usual instant noodles.

Also when I opened the soup powder sachet, the strong was really strong and I loved it.

The noodles are cooked in the usual way and I prefer to leave them harder to start with so that it soaks the broth when it gets softer.

The taste of these noodles were truly great but they were quite pricey.

River Mill Cookies

These NZ butter cookies come in three flavours: Manuka honey, kiwi and golden kiwi.

I only got hold of the Manuka honey and the kiwi.

Manuka honey cookies:
I do not usually like these butter cookies but the taste of the manuka honey went well with the buttery taste.

Kiwi cookies:
I didnt know what to expect but initially I thought it was weird having kiwi in the cookie but then I realised NZ is famous for Kiwi's.
What was more surprising, my friend my Auz said it was weird too, but I assumed Auz and NZ were similar.
