Calf’s foot curry noodles

Dishes like this are a perfect example of Chinese cookery, where ingredients are appreciated for their texture, combined with the fragrance and heat of Thai cuisine. It's a style of cookery that can be found in Bangkok’s Chinatown, and at Luke Farrell’s very own Speedboat Bar.
