I was working in Bristol on a Thursday and headed off to get some lunch from the Temple Quay Street Food Market. I had this delicious bento box with beef donburi and tan tan udon noodles from the amazing She Sells Streetfood.
The combination of ingredients in the tan tan udon noodles are wonderful.
Soft, chewy udon noodles are mixed with seasoned minced pork and fresh pak-choi, all submerged in a rich, creamy broth. There is always something in every spoonful. Don’t forget the crispy chilli if offered, it adds warmth to the whole experience.
The beef donburi was slow cooked teriyaki beef rib on a bed of rice, topped with crispy onions and pickles.
The beef was tender and full of flavour. The crispy onions add texture and the pickles and cucumbers salad add the necessary sharpness to cut through that rich tasty beef. So tasty, so nice, so delicious.
One of the reasons I buy this box on a regular basis, is that this is excellent fresh street food, full of flavour and very tasty. Also in a time where street food is getting more expensive (not surprisingly with increased costs of food and fuel) it is excellent value for money at £10 for the bento box.
