New on the blog - the brilliant value set lunch at Asiad in #Porthcawl. I've previously reviewed this excellent pan-Asian restaurant but as they've since changed their name, I thought it was a good excuse for a return visit.

Oh yeah, Crown Prince is a lovely one. And kabocha too. Neither make such good nicknames, you're right!

It's well worth a visit! The khachapuri, ajapsandali, and wine were definitely our highlights.
