The food reminded me so much of when I stayed in Hong Kong. *** You can either order separate food from the main menu or go all in for a good fixed price. *** It's quite a small restaurant but that makes it very nice to eat in not too much noise and peace. *** The people who work there are super kind and nice too! Definitely 5 starts worth :)

Very large dining areas and if you step up to the bar area, you can see into the very clean and well kept kitchen. Menus on the glass tables with rather odd 'coffee-themed' placemats. Service was extremely fast and my Mixed Seafood Noodles and Vegetarian Spring Rolls were both delivered to my table about 4 minutes after ordering. The noodles were good, but they needed a bit of the chilli paste to bring out the flavor. The spring rolls were very hot and crispy, as they should be. The usual beers are available - Tiger, Tsingtao - plus a small selection of spirits. Plus canned sodas. This restaurant has been here for decades, as I learned when I engaged the very nice lady in chat. She said 37 years. Amazing. I read elsewhere that they had some fire damage in 2008, but you can't tell. The place looks great.

There are a few other items on the menu that could easily kick you into the stratosphere of spending. As long as you avoid those, all is well. Attentive service from waiters and waitresses dressed in black, the food was good. Hot & Sour soup was good, but a bit salty. I was a little surprised to find both peas and small prawns in there. The Singapore Fried Noodles was a large portion of curried noodles with prawns, red and green peppers and a dusting of sesame seeds on top. I had plenty to take home and it was just as good the next day. Interesting music playing on the hidden speakers. Chinese singers and lyrics, intemixed with... is that Pink singing "So What"? Slightly out of place. Would I return? Maybe. The Dim Sum menu is appealing!

Every dish the waiters brought out was fresh and tasted excellent.

There are many Chinese restaurants in Reading, but I think I fell on my feet with this one…read more The restaurant is large with Chinese and Thai dishes off one menu. There is a Buffet Menu option, which is the option I went for: this allows you to pick from a sub-set of the menu and eat as many courses as you like for a fixed price. As long as you keep clearing your plate, they keep sending more food. The price varies depending on the day of the week, it was £12.90 on Wednesday when I visited, a little dearer at the weekend. I stuck with primarily Chinese dishes: a mixed starter (including two types of rib, chop suey rolls, chicken satay); crispy duck with pancakes; crispy chilli beef and chicken with noodles. A couple of glasses of a reasonably cheap (£4) Merlot washed it down nicely. I'm sure there are probably better Chinese restaurants in the area, but the food was tasty, generally well prepared and the staff friendly and helpfull. My only complaint is that the mixed starter was a little too cool. Great value for money and recommended.

We went last winter, yet they stuck the air con on high that we kept our coats on all the way through the meal. Service was slow and some of our food was warm at best. It's a shame, as it looks like a lovely upmarket chinese on the outside. Perhaps if my expectations hadn't been so high, I wouldn't have been quite so disappointed.
