30 years old and still going strong. This restaurant is celebrating its 30th birthday this year! still the same owners, it's still going strong.
if you go i would advise on trying the deep fried, dry chilli squid; aromatic duck; the szchuan dishes; baby ribs; garlic and chilli chicken; beef fillet and black pepper sauce and the beef in black bean sauce... some of my favourites here!
living in singapore now, i still get cravings for the food here! thinking about the food is making me hungry now.. :(
My wife and I dined here the other night. We were pleasantly surprised how good this place was because we know that good Chinese restaurants are hard to come by. We called to book a reservation with no problem. It’s street parking which, we have learned whilst in Belfast, isn’t the best. Thankfully we found a space not too far away.
The restaurant itself is quite fancy looking. They have a cool ceiling. The place is of reasonable size with plenty of tables which are adequately spread apart so you don’t feel that you are too close to any neighbouring diners.
The service was excellent. The two ladies that served us were on the ball. They were always busy but seemed to have everything under control. They were also very pleasant.
Normally Chinese menus are exhausting to read through and it’s nearly impossible to decide. However this menu is a great size. It provides variety but it isn’t overwhelming.
I was naughty and got 2 starters. I got the duck with pancakes and hoisin sauce and also the pork ribs with pecking sauce. Both of these were delicious. The duck came on the bone and the waitress shredded it upon serving. The duck came with 6 thin pancakes and the hoisin sauce was lovely. The pork ribs were indulgent. They came right off the bone and tasted amazing. This alone was probably enough for me but mains to come. My wife got vegetable spring rolls for starters which she enjoyed. The pastry was very sick and crispy. For mains my wife got chicken fried rice and curry sauce which is her go to Chinese dish. She thought it was tasty and a generous portion. I got Szechuan chicken which was nice along with chow mein. The chow mein was an enormous potion compared to the chicken which was quite small. For the table we had prawn crackers which were…well prawn crackers. I squeezed in some dessert. We shared deep fried ice cream which I’ve never had before. It was surprisingly good.
The only 2 negatives was that the taps in the bathroom were only trickling out and the meal was expensive. It came to just under £80. Which for Chinese food standards is a lot. We did order a lot of food and it was all very tasty so can’t really complain.
My partner and I visited this restaurant tonight.
We had an excellent meal here with aromatic duck for starter (which was shredded in front of us), sweet and sour chicken, salted chilli chicken, rice and chips.
The atmosphere was excellent although a little loud at times (not the restaurants fault, there was a birthday party enjoying themselves).
The staff were very friendly and after the meal gave us some tips on places to visit locally.
Portion sizes were fantastic and we both thoroughly enjoyed the food.
The icing on the cake was when we received the bill and it was incredibly reasonable for the amount of food and drink we had.
Would recommend a visit here.
