Second Visit: Love the delicious generous serving of Sze Chuan fish fillets with rice at ~$12.

I tried to order a glass of cold milk to wash away some of the spicy peppery taste instead of gulping down glasses of free water which barely does the job to remove the spicy taste (authentic).

I felt there is an unrealised $$$ opportunity for restaurants / food courts that sell spicy food like Chinese Sze Chuan / Indian Curry / Hotpot to create a better customer experience for the benefits of all stakeholders by selling cold milk - although milk tends to spoil quickly thus its likely you will only find cold milk served in high end establishments e.g. hotels. Would small individual long shelf life milk packets do the trick of removing spiciness?

This will be valuable especially in Western countries for people of all demographics who are not used to taking spicy food. Think about the benefits worldwide and at MoDu Clayton restaurant.

I took my partner to Modu Clayton on Monday to celebrate Valentines day with her, and we were really looking forward to enjoying a great Chinese meal.

The experience was a disaster from our first step into the restaurant, as the the person who led us to our table seemed totally disinterested in us. On being seated he handed us a single menu, pointed to a QR code on the wall stated that we order our meal by scanning it, and then walked away.

The 'menu' was in actual fact a large plush photo album of their food, which didn't seem to be ordered in any sensible fashion, and which we had to keep turning on it's side so we could read the descriptions. I won't even try to explain the difficulties I experienced in getting just the bottle of wine into our 'basket', let alone finding the entrée in the phone menu which in no way aligned with the photo album. Even McDonalds don't make you do this.

The upshot is that we walked out, and went to Taco Bill. On arrival we were given a warm welcome, and subsequently received a nice meal with a minimum of effort on our part. At all times there we were made to feel that we were important to them which is how a restaurant should treat their patrons.

To finish this review I will mention that we visited Modu Clayton 4 years ago, and gave them a rave review...
