“I thought it was rice, but it's chopped up flatbread. The spice, the depth of flavor, the pork curry, that soft flatbread, the carrots with sweetness, onion with a little bit of bite. It's phenomenal. They are not messing around with the spice level here.”

Mutton Roll
Oh my god, that is the flavor bomb. That is the spiciest thing I've had on this channel in a very long time. It might not look like much, but the flavor is incredible. Authentic spices that I don't think the lads in my local even know about.
