there are packed lunches which cost 5 pounds, "catered by Pretty Orchid. Pretty Orchid is this amazing Asian restaurant in Nottingham which serves delicious asian cuisine. The owner happens to be Malaysian so you know you'll get as close to asian food as possible. First hand experience, you won't regret paying for the lunch pack. its delicious!"
