    Made this for some neighbors who were in need of some good food, & did they ever get it with this pork dish! OUTSTANDING in prep, taste, the whole bit! I did manage a serving for myself, & I really liked the cinnamon & ginger flavors, combining so well, as they did, with the others! All made for an unusual & wonderful experience at the table! Definitely one I want to make again just for myself! [Made & reviewed for the Asia part of the World Tour 4]
