    Tescos stock the light and dark soya sauce and curry paste, but they don't stock the Lee Kum Kee premium brand of oyster sauce, its the best double the price of the panda stuff.

    pocky are little thin sticks made out of biscuit and the bottom half is coated in chocolate (or strawberry or vanilla!) about 65p a packet for loads! they dont last long so do buy loads.you cant just ever eat 1 or 2....its a whole box or nothing (we even have to buy a box each for car ride home,lol)

    Looks very like the Mikado biscuits, only with different flavours. I'll look out for these next time, thanks

    I got the lion brand ones. they are really YELLOW!!
    I made a clear broth and after i softened the noodles....and rinsed them, I just bunged them in the broth!!
    I got star aniase, cardamon, veg stock, scallions, onions, chillis, cloves, salt and pepper...carrots brocolli and sweetcorn.....

    It was delicious, i can now breathe through my nose... (i have cold/flu, and feel awful)
