The crispy shredded beef was very crispy, however, this can be explained by the fact that it had virtually no sauce.
The prawn balls themselves were ok but the sweet and sour sauce that came separately was unlike any sweet and sour sauce I've had - it had a brown colour instead of the usual red, wasn't sweet, and tasted and smelled strongly of vinegar. Very off-putting.
Although this particular order is the second worst Chinese meal I have ever ordered, the reasons why I am not giving it 1 star is because they usually give a decent sized complementary bag of prawn crackers, previous orders haven't been as bad (they were average at most), and the food isn't as bad as 1423 China kitchen which is the worst Chinese food I have tasted.
Edit: forgot to mention that the food is very overpriced for what it is.
First of all, their Ice Lemon Tea is the closest thing to Swiss Migros Iced Tea (if you know, you know!)
The shrimp fried rice was fine but needed some additional seasoning for my own taste. Chilli sauce and soy.
The Duck was superb.
I saw a table across from us having “hot pot” and looked truly delicious.
No reservation needed.
Staff were very friendly and fast.
Was recommended the most expensive chicken dish. ( chuan Nan spice chicken) only for it to be fried chicken cartilage drenched in chilli oil and fried to a crisp. Absolutely no flavour but chilli.
And ordered the king prawns which tasted frozen and way too oily
Dead munch overall
