At issue is the cooking smell from the Huang's house that the owner of the other house says is offensive. In a statement of claim, Elizabeth Ann Magner calls the smell from her neighbours' wok "odorous" and wants them to stop.

Now the dispute has led to a lawsuit, and the courts will have to try to sort it out.
