Keyword is WOK, not cast iron pan
it's carbon steel and will take quite awhile to get the proper patina that helps with the taste

I got something like this for christmas.
www.johnlewis.com/le-creuset-shallow-casserole-30cm/p310824

Haven't used it yet though. Should be good for frying and ovening. It says it doesn't need seasoning and should build a patina on it's own. Sounds like fibs.

I've got a cheap non stick one that I have only used once because all the noodles stuck to it.
I cook most of my food in my cast iron pans and skillets.

It ain't the greatest at flash frying.
And weighs a fucking tonne.

It does a nice Beef Rendang though.

I just looked at it, basically looks like a dutch pot
A good cast iron Dutch pot is a basic necessity for my kitchen

you should prolly buy one of those instead of a ridiculous cast iron Not-a-Wok

the patina does nowt for the taste
It just makes it non stick

Not according to what I've been led to believe a well seasoned wok does stop food from sticking
and is also supposed to enhance the flavour
