“What an absolutely fabulous Chinese takeaway. Haven’t lived in many parts of the UK and sampled many different Chinese takeaways. This is absolutely without doubt the best one I have ever eaten from. The prawn toast’s are crisp and nicely filled and not overcooked. Salt and chilli prawns were cooked to perfection and there was plenty of them, in fact the portion sizes were incredibly good. I have to say this Chinese takeaway compares well even with Chinatown in London, the quality is definitely up there.”
