Booked here for a party of 6 for Chinese New Year's Eve, after failing to secure booking for another restaurant because of this busy night. We ordered the peking duck and all the dishes for a lucky and prosperous years - like fish, noodles, and dumplings.

The dim sum dishes came first - char sui bun and xiao long bao were standard and tasted pretty good. There were no spoons tho for the xiao long bao which made it a bit harder / less traditional.

Our dishes came next- the steamed sea bass was delicious, the bones were taken out (except the side fins) which made it easy to eat (but less "fun" as I like flipping the fish when one side is done). The ho fun (rice noodle) with scrambled egg had a bit of everything in it - chicken, pork, prawn, squid. We also got the a plate of Chinese Broccoli (Gai Lan) with garlic (you have to order some vege in a Chinese restaurant) and this turned out to be one of my favourite dish of the night. Very fragrant and crunchy. We also ordered Mongolian king prawn, that was a bit disappointing, and actually felt like the sweet & sour king prawn dish instead (or maybe the order was mixed up...).

I also really felt like peking duck for ages so was happy to finally get some. I was a bit confused about the difference between peking duck and crispy aromatic duck both on their menu when I was checking it out when picking the restaurant. Turned out it is an UK thing (popular in UK) and the latter duck is finished with a deep frying step hence the crispiness, and apparently it's a bit drier. We got two steam basket of pancakes for our peking duck - not sure if it's because we asked about having enough pancakes haha. I am more used to have 2 courses when I have peking duck but they don't do that here. We ordered a whole one and we also got the usual plum sauce and cucumber & garlic shoot to go with it.

Although we were only given 2 hours of dining time, we ate pretty fast and finished after just 1.5 hours. They don't do desserts but gave us a plate of fortune cookies which was entertaining as we added "in bed" after reading each of our fortunes out loud!

All in all, a pretty good meal and service was good (for a Chinese restaurant). We sat in the back room of the restaurant and the atmosphere was good, nice bright white walls and table clothes, and maybe not as crowded as the front part. However it got a bit noisy cos it's all big tables in the back room. Some portions of the food didn't feel very much but overall we walked away full and happy for just over £15 per person.

Booking online was easy and (probably given their busy night) they phoned me on the day to confirm our booking.

Decent Chinese food, although the consistency of dishes was a bit off! Some dishes were cooked really well and came out hot and fresh, and some the opposite, so a bit hot and miss. Plenty of variety on the menu and can order dim sum alongside main dishes which is what we did.
