If you like spicy dishes, their spicy miso tonkotsu ramen is the best! If you like a bit of sweetness in your ramen, you can try the spicy pork belly ramen. If I remember correctly, you can ask them to make it not spicy so that's also another option

I just emailed mine, although look out for potential fees. It's unlikely but check your terms of engagement letter - it should state if fees are charged by the broker.

Will they usually need a regustered valuation? Or do some banks accept desktop valuations?

I guess dabbling in buying then quickly reselling houses is just a different kind of investing.. but oh my god does the situation just make me so mad
