Don't you think it's always the way that when you go somewhere with modest expectations, it is, in fact, surprisingly very good indeed? Well this applies to Longhouse in spades.............
It's in the wrong part of a boring town, with poor parking and a low profile. A colleague chose it for her leaving do so off we went anyway. Guess what? It was great. Really fine food.
We scoffed royally. Lord knows what Malaysian fusion actually IS (I guessed they'd got a nuclear bomb....) but it works just fine. Roti, super hot salt & pepper king prawns, jambal spiced dishes. What a feast! I was so impressed by the menu that, for once, I didn't have Pad Thai!!! That really says something.
The staff were friendly & seemed quite charmingly confused. The waitress clearly had no idea what she was serving but that didn't really matter. In fact, I made her try some of mine! She liked it too!!! Perhaps it was a little too salty but I would heartily recommend you go and support it. They close Tuesday nights & offer a far cheaper take away menu if you so desire. read more
