Customer reviews

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: The Southeast Asian spice blend and soy-ginger sauce on the sweet potatoes were standout hits with many customers. Some found the slaw mild, while others felt the soy-ginger dressing was too strong for the potatoes.
  • Ease of prep: The crumbing process takes a little extra time and creates more dishes, and some found the coating tricky to keep intact during cooking.
  • Suggestions: Make sure to dip the pork in the spice blend before the egg and breadcrumbs, as this helps the seasoning and coating stick. One customer swapped the soy-ginger sauce onto the slaw instead of the potatoes to keep the potatoes crispy, which worked well. Several customers found the spice blend and panko insufficient to coat all the pork, so having extra breadcrumbs on hand is a good idea.
  • Leftovers: Leftover schnitzel keeps well in the fridge and works nicely in wraps the next day.
  • Portions: Some customers felt the pork portions were generous, while others found them on the smaller side, so experiences varied.
