When you see people inside sleeping on the benches and seats with blankets before opening time you shudder to think what the sanitation is like in the kitchen or how the food is prepared. I walked past stopped and kept on walking that for me was enough there are way better chinese options that dont risk my health.
Love their dim sims and black bean beef stir fry. Quick delivery compared to other take aways in the same area. Becoming a regular soon. Highly recommended.
We were really looking forward to our dinner after a hectic weekend. I ordered chicken with garlic sauce and vegetables. He ordered mie goreng. Also a fried rice to share.
I received… lemon chicken, with no vegetables in sight. Hurrah!
Sauce came separately, which is good. However when you held up some of the battered chicken it was dripping oil which, by the taste, I would say had been changed last at the turn of the century. The lemon sauce was awful.
I decided not to eat mine, as it was just horrible (even after I pulled all the batter off to have just the plain chicken which was rock hard), and have half the fried rice instead.
He received… well… it’s noodles, but I wouldn’t say mie goreng. They reminded us of tinned spaghetti. Squidgy weird pasta noodles with TOMATO SAUCE all over it. They were also full of chunks of chicken extender and spam. SPAM. He decided to also not eat any of his…
So we’re down to spending $50 for half a fried rice each. Which was also awful! I’d say the rice had been done about a week ago and just reheated. It really shouldn’t be chewy.
I rang up to get a portion of the money back for what we couldn’t eat and basically was told ‘no, we do not do refunds’. Had an argument with them over it and just gave up in the end trying to get even a small portion of the money back for their ridiculously overpriced trash.
Honestly, $14 for the mie goreng which was just a sorry excuse for it, and I didn’t even receive what I ordered to begin with!
I guess you live and learn, and I will never, ever give this place another cent. Absolutely appalling. It’s all in the bin, sadly. A huge waste of food and money. $50 for a fried rice is just terrible.
No good. Wouldn’t recommend this place. Food is very poor quality and a waste of money.
I would hate to see the kitchen and see how they prepare the food we are eating
Pretty basic fried rice. .main courses are usually fine. .but Singapore noodles are a bit bland beef and black bean is nice most of the chicken dishes I’ve tried have been good also good service. .probably one of those places when you need to drop in quck for the average meal
Good dim sims and special fried rice. Nothing fancy, but great for the times when I am craving Chinese food. Affordable so you won’t break the budget.
This restaurant gets a royal thumbs up for being open on Good Friday, so that my hunger needs could be met despite the Good Friday lockdown.
At 1.5 stars this is the worst review I’ve ever given but I promise that I do not give it lightly. I had a great dish and an appalling dish- a dish so appalling anything more than 1.5 would be pure fantasy.
Everything seemed great; I arrived to pick up my order- the server was a sweet little lady who was only too happy to attend to me. I had ordered deep fried Prawns with spicy salt, Malaysian chicken curry and steamed rice.
I peered at the prawns before I had even returned home and decided they looked divine. Tails removed, great ratio of prawns per price, lovely golden crisp exterior and some mouth watering spices spread throughout. Although the spices didn’t cover the prawns extensively, like you would expect, I found the reach of flavour consistent across the many prawns. I devoured a few in quick succession; confident that I had just found my new favourite Chinese place.
As I reached home and dished up the rice and curry I was hit with the awful realisation that I was eating the single worst curry I’ve ever experienced. Now, I don’t say this lightly- as a half Lankan myself, I have sampled many-a-curry in my life. I am quite forgiving when curries don’t turn out 100%, or when restaurants jib you on the meat to sauce ratio- but some things are without excuse. This curry was almost without discernible flavour, just a claggy weird sauce. It’s as though the sauce was halfway completed when they decided to marinate the meat and send it to me like that. I wasn’t sure if this was just me- so I sent the curry over the my Lankan grandmothers house where 3 relatives sampled it- without any inkling of how I felt about it- and were all three equally revolted. That was all the validation I needed to confirm I wasn’t being too harsh or reacting too strongly.
I’m including a picture of the chicken corn soup they included as a free accompaniment. It was like most free accompaniment soups- nice enough, but not the quality of something you would order.
