Laughing Buddha offers all kinds of Asian cuisines including Thai, Malaysian, Vietnamese, Singaporean and even Mongolian. The menu (once you get over the quantity of dishes and the squashed typesetting) offers the most varied and unusual choices I've ever seen. Where else can you try Shanghai Pork Pies (£4.90), Duck with Minced Prawn Stuffing (£12) or Mongolian Lamb (£10.80). Not only that, they have 9 different varieties of spare ribs and no less than 19 sauces to choose as accompaniments to your meal. Unpretentious decor, authentic cuisine, and no sight of MSG anywhere. Winner.

It is very slightly on the expensive side but after you've tried the yummyness you'll understand why.

Stays at one star and it's really disappointing as these folks know how to do very much better…read morebecause we had much better here. It's hard to imagine how they could do much worse. I ordered a sweet & sour pork Cantonese style and it was rubbish. The pork had already been cooked to within an inch of its life before it was battered and deep fried so it was an awful eat. Likewise I had a crispy seaweed which wasn't crispy and actually unpleasant. My wife opted for chilli chicken, which was almost as bad as my food. What they do is a deep fried batter to chicken ratio with chicken very much in the minority and it's not chicken breast either. So I think that's it for this place as we've had a few lousy meals when we didn't update this review - if your focus is on producing food as cheaply as you possibly can with no expense spent you'll run out of customers.

Our go to Chinese take away - good food & they deliver…read more In Sale the take away options, like the sit in restaurant options, are few if you want something decent and edible. Even fewer of the decent places deliver and surely this is the point of a take away? If I can be bothered driving somewhere I probably have the energy to cook instead. A take away for me is the cure for a hang over or a necessity after a horrendous and exhausting day. That said onto the review. Yooneek is a standard Chinese take away. The food is good (few times slightly less so but generally reliable and tasty) and they deliver. The menu had a lot of good options and the price is reasonable. We had chicken in black bean sauce, Cantonese chicken with noodles and egg fried rice. They threw in free prawn crackers which is always nice. Everything was tasty as usual and the food arrived in 30 minutes as they said. All you need from a take away.

Our regular chinese was closed because I'm and idiot and didn't realise most chinese restaurants are closed on a monday. So we searched for a local substitution on our Sat Nav (we were desperate and miles from home) and just picked the first one we found, Gonbay. The restaurant has on the street parking and there were a lot of similarly sized restaurants on the same street in Altrincham, all pretty deserted. SO walking up I was a little nervous because the thought of being loan diners in a restaurant terrifies me. But Gonbay was pretty packed on a Monday night and that is because it is a teriffic little chinese restaurant with amazing staff and a really decent menu. The appetizers and dim sum had all the favourites and then some I had never heard of. We had the fillet steak wraps (£5.80) they advertised three but because they knew we were going to share them they brought out four and an extra cutlery/plate setting which was very nice. The steak was soft and wrapped around shredded vegetables, beansprouts etc you know the drill. The sauce was so sweet and salty and the quality of the meat so good I could have stopped there and been satisfied. I was feeling particularly self indulgent (self destructive) so I ordered the Crispy Chilli shredded Beef (8.50) and boiled rice for our main course. Oh my god it was just as crispy chilli beef should be, gnarled old walking sticks of unidentifiable bits of beef, drenched in sugary salty red sauce, surrounded by onions and peppers in a brief nod towards actual nutrition. I ate the whole thing. What followed was a pot of tea so voluminous I couldn't drink it and I really did give it my best shot. Possibly related to this the toilets are very clean. The staff were really friendly and funny too so that fifth star goes to them specifically. I would love to return some time in the next year but I'm afraid I've eaten all my calorie allowance for the foreseeable future :(.

I swear on a stack of bibles - in the name of Jesus - Gonbay was the most bland, tasteless meal I have ever eaten. It wasn't just one dish we ordered. We got 6 different dishes to share among 3 people. Each and every dish was bland, lukewarm and just awful. How can a place like this stay in operation? Take my advise - if this were your last meal before death- just die in peace. To top it all off the wait staff The wait staff were rude as they come. Avoid this place.

One of my favourite Chinese dishes is, the very popular, crispy shredded chilli beef. I find that this is an effective barometer of a good quality Chinese takeaway. The presentation of this meal can vary massively, with the majority of establishments offering "fairly soggy beef" rather than crispy, as it should be. At the New Rainbow, the beef is ever crispy, which is why as Arnie says, "I'll be back" again & again (although not always for the same dish, naturally).
