Hard to pitch it between two or three stars but I've opted for the former. We got quarter duck and pancakes to start but one pancake (out of 6) at the bottom of the steam basket was mush.
I doubt the pancakes were steamed rather likely microwaved. The duck was tasty but we got shredded leaks and not spring onion.
My wife opted for chicken and black bean with steamed rice which was tasty 3 star but pretty low on vegetables.
I got a soya duck main which had steamed pak choi and a huge portion of steamed rice, most of which I left.
The duck was thin cut, it tasted just about ok and the dish was way over priced and a waste of money.
Our two mains came with diet cokes (330 ml cans) with lots of sliced lemon at about £14 each.
We were the only westerners dining and it was plenty business. Most of the clientele were under 30.
The staff were very attentive to us.
What bugged me was the addition of a 10% discretionary tip that was so discretionary it was already added into the bill.
I left £50 so my tip was about £6 in total but that was my choice. I do rail against this sort of sharp practice though. It is not acceptable and they should desist.
They are taking advantage of customers who don't want to make a fuss, they know it and it's bad business.
Certainly won't return because the food does not impress for the prices charged even before the alleged discretionary tip. read more
