“Not been here for awhile, service was quick,sadly , still cash only so it's a trip to the cash point first . Simple order, sweet n sour chicken balls, beef chow mein, rice and some beansprouts . The sweet n sour was fine , the rice was ok , the beef chow mein was tasteless but the beansprouts were singlehandedly the worst thing any takeaway has ever served me , smelt hideous, tasted worse , straight in the bin”
