We have been a few times but this was not a great visit, it was busy and we hadn’t booked, but they sat us by an fire exit door/ storage room and the staff needed to keep going in and out and kept leaving door open, I was frozen throughout our meal despite getting up and closing the door several times myself, they didn’t seem to notice or even care 🤔 Staters were good except the chicken for chicken satay was tough as old boots. Our hoped highlight of crispy duck and pancakes was awful plenty of duck but SO dry, the cucumber batons had obviously been cut well in advance so were also dry so offered no moisture to the dish. The hoisin sauce was shocking it actual had no sweetness and a nasty state cheesy aftertaste. My husband was treating me to this meal as a nice surprise so really didn’t wasn’t to make any fuss that would spoil his efforts so didn’t complain. It was barely edible though if I’m honest 😬 Can hoisin sauce go off? The next course was good thank goodness, special fried rice excellent and sizzling prawns very nice. Staff were friendly but busy. Probably won’t go back and try to find another restaurant that’s more consistent on flavour and quality.
