I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The sauce was a little too tangy for my taste, so I added a bit of sugar to balance it out. It was a hit with my family and we will definitely be making it again.

This recipe was just okay. The sauce was a little too sweet for my taste and the noodles were a bit mushy. I probably won't make this recipe again.

I was really disappointed with this recipe. The sauce was bland and the noodles were overcooked. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out right. I won't be making this recipe again.
