Geisha At Home Experience in North Tyneside

I really really wanted this to be awesome. I'm a massive fan of the restaurant and had really hoped this would live up to that standard. Sadly it didn't. Received notification that the food was ready six minutes before the allocated pick-up time. Given the pickup slot was half an hour then that already was a poor experience. Means the food is packed up and potentially under a hot lamp which isn't ideal. If i'm late that's on me but the food being ready early is not. Ordered the Geisha box and it was exactly that - food in a flimsy cardboard box with a bit of foil. Really impractical for a takeaway as next to no thermal insulation, it wasn't even corrugated like a pizza box. That meant the food in the box was cold or lukewarm by the time i travelled the 7mins home. Conversely the chicken and noodles were still boiling hot. The salt and chilli chicken and salt and chilli fries were bland with next to no seasoning anywhere near them. The huge bag of truffle fries also had no truffle flavour at all. The standout in the box were the ribs and the Geisha KFC both of which were excellent. Overall, a really disappointing and expensive meal that did not deliver the Geisha at home experience.
