I don't order many takeaways and if I do , I always order from the takeaway I know and like. Tonight I ordered from Weng Kee down Grimsby Road.. I was charged nearly 15 pounds for a Happy meal of chops, chicken nuggets and a curry sauce..,4.20 ponds. I also ordered a salt and spicy chicken. This in total should of come to just over 10 pounds. I'm not one to complain but I phoned Weng Kee to explain I had been overcharged. They was adamant that they hadn't received the order, although it was Weng Kee, phone number that was on my phone when I was talking!!.They said is wasn't Weng Kee anymore and they told me to phone the police! After much discussion , with them, I said I would phone the police, as this is wrong!! Why are they keeping the same phone number, although they deny it! Please don't order from them... it's your decision..but why deny??? I always order online, as I don't go out. To be basically be called a liar, it's not me, i dont lie!

This is an unexpected find. Simple no fuss Hong Kong style cafe affairs. The atmosphere is a bit dull but if you could bear with this aspect, the food served here wouldn’t disappoint. Will certainly consider coming again when in the neighborhood. We came for the Singapore Style Vermicelli and again we were pleasantly impressed. The standards are as good as those you could find in Hong Kong eateries if not better. You don’t come to Reindeer for its ambience. Do come with an empty stomach and you will go away very satisfied.

Chinese restaurant serving Beijing (Peking), Szechuan, and Cantonese cuisine. Will be celebrating 40 years this September (2024). Inconspicuously located in Beaconsfield old town. Hasn’t got the usual large, flashy sign outside. In fact it would be easy to miss! Similarly inside, it is not littered with cheap Chinese decorations. I’d go as far as saying it looks very high class. The front of house staff are very attentive, regularly (but not annoyingly often) coming to check if everything is ok or if you need any more food or drinks. We went there for the Sunday buffet on the August bank holiday weekend. Got there about 1pm. It wasn’t busy at all, but as we were eating a number of people turned up. Talking to the waitress, we were told that Sundays, and the whole weekend in general, is usually very busy. So booking a table in advance is recommended. If you do it through the website you’ll be directed to a third party site. This site ‘warns’ you that that the Sunday buffet ends at 1.30pm. Ignore that! It’s not true. The buffet is served all day Sunday. How it works, is that you’re offered a mixed platter of Peking ribs, spring rolls, deep fried vegetables, crispy seaweed, chicken satay skewers, and prawn toast according to the number of people at the table. Then you get a “tick list” (see photo) where you mark which dishes you’d like to order. So it’s a kind of “a la carte buffet”. Once you’ve finished what you ordered, you can order more, including topping up your starter mixed platter. There’s no limit how much you can order- as long as you eat it all! We chose Chicken with ginger and spring onion, Crispy chilli beef, Szechuan beef, and Twice cooked pork. What’s our thoughts? Definitely much better than your usual Chinese fast food from ‘down the road’. Yet, perhaps not as good as I had expected. From the mixed platter the giant spring rolls, seaweed, deep fried vegetables ,and the peking ribs were the best. The prawn toast didn’t really taste of prawns, the satay sauce didn’t even have a hint of peanut flavour. From main courses: the Chicken with ginger and spring onion tasted of ordinary chicken soup. The Crispy chilli beef was crispy and tasty but I couldn’t tell if there actually was any beef! There was no “chewiness” in the crispy bites. The Szechuan beef was tender and flavoursome, not overly spicy. I couldn’t see any Szechuan peppers… The Twice cooked pork was also tender and tasty. Dessert is also included - deep fried apple and banana with caramel drizzle and ice cream. Pretty bland, to be honest. Disappointing, as I was looking forward to it. Overall, all the dishes had flavour but there was just that “little something” missing to make it stand out. Also, typical of many buffet meals, it left us both rather thirsty. I think the idea is to make the dishes a bit saltier (or use MSG?) to make you order more drinks and eat less food = more pofit.

We went here last night as a party of 4, (Sat 26th October 24). It was strange as where we were seated used to be Crescent Cameras where I worked in 1972. Parking was simply non existent, and Uber cab service were pretty useless both ways. The food was good, big portions, but the drinks were very, very expensive, and the cocktails lacking in alcohol. The staff tended to forget about us, especially when we wanted to order our main meal. Because of the cost and the location I doubt we would return. The place was less than half full, for a Saturday night, that is very poor!

I was live-in bar/cellar man in this pub in the early 90s.Kings Cross was a dangerous area then but The Swan was a decent pub with meals for the surrounding office workers. Just on Regents Canal. Coming from Ireland I thought it was great that workers were allowed to go for a couple of pints at lunchtime. I was in my early 20s and a good time to be in London. There was a Spanish bar-restaurant in Pentonville Rd and Filthy ManNasty’s up in Amwell St and Minogue’s Liverpool St. Walking up Chapel St Market to Upper St Angel. The 90s the good old days 😀
