About New World
New World is a Chinese takeaway at 136 Paget St in Cardiff that also serves some Thai food alongside its Chinese dishes. The kitchen prepares salt and chilli chicken and ribs that are slow cooked. Chicken balls come with BBQ sauce available instead of sweet and sour sauce, which gives that dish a second option. Customers place their order at the counter and collect it from the same register, so the whole exchange happens in one spot.

Customer Review Summary
Diners most often praise the food, with the salt and chilli chicken called the best one reviewer has had and the ribs described as slow cooked and melt in your mouth. The curry is noted for a little kick, and the Thai dishes are mentioned as a change. Portions are described as big. Service is called polite, efficient and sweet, including at the register on a very busy New Year's Eve, and one reviewer calls the takeaway very clean. Against that, two find it expensive, one says the meat rice dish was drowned in soya sauce with hardly any meat, and another found the order and cooking a bit slow. One reviewer reports food poisoning after a meal and says the call to the takeaway was met with indifference. One repeat customer notes that a request for BBQ sauce instead of sweet and sour on the chicken balls was happily accommodated both times.

“Second time ordering here and the food was great. I also requested BBQ sauce instead of sweet & sour sauce for the chicken balls, and they were happy to accommodate. Which I really appreciated. They did it before as well. Me & my husband managed to eat everything, and they were big portions haha. Will most likely order here again.”
