Good Chinese food at great value for your time and money. Yellow traditional Chinese lanterns in combination with fluorescent pink walls make for an eccentric décor. Everyone can find their favourite dumpling, soup, noodle and rice dishes on the menu, plus interesting additions such as the shredded jellyfish and radish. BYO is a convenient choice, with a bottle shop around the corner.

We were seated at a 4 seated table with a couple and next to 2 seat table that was occupied. The menus were tossed on the table and mine was missing half of the pages, we had to flag down the ...read more
