Quick info
About Spicy China
Spicy China is a Chinese takeaway at 31 Westbourne Terrace in Houghton Le Spring. The menu is built around boxes: share boxes and a munchy box, with noodles that can be added to the box so one order covers the table. Chow mein comes in chicken, beef or prawn versions, and salt and pepper chicken sits among the chicken dishes. Seaweed is on the menu as a side to go with them.

Customer Review Summary
The caveat comes from two critical reviews. One long-time customer found a meal reheated, dry and tasteless, and was told by staff that it had been cooked fresh. Another reported slow delivery, rock hard stir fried onions, cold soggy chips and old boiled rice, saying standards had gone downhill. One order came with a free bag of prawn crackers.
