Dumplings, very spicy soup and Chya
Dumplings, an unidentifiable great and very spicy soup. Chya of a complex tea does the job. Milk in a great tea? When it comes to pairing it with a spice dish: absolutely! Milk balances the spicy notes of the dish, the complex character of the tea becomes more dominant. A real surprise to me.
Gerechten: Rijst, pasta, noodles, Tussendoortjes en Vegetarisch
