It's good, but the portion is a bit small and not enough to eat.
Su^zanne
Convenient and easy to prepare per instructions. Cooked well, tasty to eat. It's all vegetables, so don't expect any meat from this one if that's what you're looking for (I added cooked pork belly! :) ) This will be good to have when travelling, camping or being in hotels where there are no kitchen. All you need is water for the heater that you can get from any faucet. Because it already came with the clean water to cook the dish itself.

Very easy to use, and quite tasty! I will get this again.

Very good flavor
Oli
Always a repurchase for me. I am disappointed because I notice that they are changing the Ingredients in the bamboo mixture packaging. Same for the bibimbap flavor too. I am having it with kimichi, vegetables and grilled chicken. I will repurchase from time to time. I give it a 3.5 out of 5 stars.
Vidya
Tastes good
Oli
Bringing a self-heating hot pot to a picnic is a great way to have a hot meal and satisfy your Chinese stomach.

The taste was good, and the side dishes were also delicious. I'll definitely buy it again next time.
