Wagamama, Cambridge

After watching England narrowly lose a thrilling game of 6 Nations rugby, it's just about dinner time, so my friend and I decamped up the stairs to Wagamama's for some Asian fusion delights.
We have a beer, a main and a side each from the menu, switching around the food so we can try a bit of everything. R has Teriyaki Chicken Donburi and Pork Ribs, and I choose Yaki Udon and Chilli Squid.

The pork is beautifully tender on the bone, allowing for easy stripping, the seasoning too is good, not over sweet, complementing the meat well. I generally tend to prefer noodles over rice (there was rarely a childhood meal that was without the little white grains) and I particularly like the pickled ginger for the different aesthetic it gives to some good non-greasy fried noodles. We spend about £20 each in a restaurant that hums with relaxed Saturday diners, the queue as we leave is a good sign of a restaurant and so it proved to be.
