What can I say. This is probably the worst excuse for Chinese food I have ever had. But the sign outside was attractive!
When I opened the door to go into the restaurant, I saw more staff than customers, and they were casually sitting around, maybe waiting for customers - who knows. The place was dim and dingy and looked more like someone's house with a few tables set up. Anyway I was shown a table and then handed the menu. While looking at the menu I noted the small wine glass was "opaque" so I figured I had better order bottled water, but I was not specific enough and my bottle was maybe 1.75 litre in size so I had to pour into the glass. Ugh. Then there is the food.
I ordered 2 spring rolls and what came was greasy stale fried egg rolls heated over in a microwave. Strike one. I also ordered the wanton soup. That came in a small bowl with 5 wantons which themselves barely tasted okay but the liquid had a strange oily taste. Not good. Strike two. Then the main course came - noodles with vegetables (few pieces of julienne carrots, and sliced zucchini) and shrimp (one) and meat (a few tiny pieces). The noodles were the clear rice noodles (if I had known that I would have ordered something else) and everything was sauced with soya sauce. I can cook far better thhan this! Anyway I noted that the pile had a strange smooth shape to the top and I guessed that it was covered in shrink wrap and then microwaved since I heard no clanking of a wok. So I dug in. The taste was not bad but credit that to the lack of too many ingredients other than the noodles and to the soya sauce.I also had some pepper sauce on the table which I used liberally to "fix" the dish.
There is one okay aspect to this "experience" - it all came up to 13.50 Euros, although it was worth far less. Especially for food that was not fresh but microwaved.
I did not stay for dessert. read more
