Marthinus StrydomThe Story
Chinese take-out is one of our most favorite things on the planet. I mean seriously, it’s just so good and all the options that there are amazing.
There has been much debate on whether this Chinese pork is served with the sauce over the top or if it is served alongside.
We have been to all the take-out places and not once have we seen it served over the pork itself. So this is our preferred method of serving, but if you like it over the pork itself, by all means, drizzle away.
