About China House

“I don't know how much they salt this lot are throwing in the food but after eating their food my lips actually started bleeding from the amount of sodium in the dishes. Both me and my husband were very ill from the sheer amount of salt in the dishes. Suffering from heart palpitations and hangovers the next day. WOULD NEVER order again unless I fancy a heart attack or kidney failure.”
