It was late afternoon on a Sunday. We were hungry... but where to eat in this town. No one was open. Urbanspoon was certianly no help in this small old fashioned town. My partner said we should give up "Lets get out of here..." were the only words that were spoken by them.

Read moreThis restraunt deserves no stars. We googled this site and saw it was a 4.3 star restraunt. Despite the looks of the building itself we gave it a chance. We ordered 5 plates and we were not happy. 3 out of the 5 plates were OK but the other two were litterally burnt. We still had to pay for all dishes. This is an outrage as the customer is always right and this owner had no pride in his food and surely doesn't want to keep his...
