We’ve been going here regularly for years. And over the last few months it’s steadily gone downhill. Food quality, consistency and actually getting the order correct. Tonight was the last straw. Special chow mein tasted really off. I had a tiny bit of noodle and thought it didn’t taste right, then I bit into the king prawn. It was hard and crunchy no shell! like water chestnut and tasted really odd. I called them and said there was something wrong. They told me to put it back in the container and to bring it back and asked if I wanted another. I declined and asked if I could have something else the thought of another prawn or noodles was making me feel ill. I asked for beef and broccoli and a fried rice Upon returning the dish, no apology for inconvenience I had to wait until they added up the price difference £1.70 . I told them I wasn’t paying the difference as I’d had to drive back to return it and wouldn’t have had to change it if there hadn’t been something wrong with the order. After much discussion in Cantonese I was told I’d have to pay to return a dish next time?? I shouldn’t have to return food I’ve ordered. This place has continued to get worse lately and there’s inconsistency with dishes from night to night. Between that and the latest idiocy over returning a meal that I’ll be lucky I don’t end up ill from, we will not be returning.
