Read moreIt's OK, if you decide to get the all you can eat buffet for £14.55 per person, that's what I had, when I went in there by my self yesterday I got to the table and was told that the buffet is only for a minimum of two people. Which I thought was unfair as when I have been in there before I have seen people on there own.
The minimum of two people also allows for portion control. No matter how many people are sitting at a table I have found that you all ways get the same size portion. I remember four of us going one time and we had a mix starter, the starter was finished rather quickly, and was the same size as a table of two's portion, and I even remember that a table of just one getting the same sized portion. You then have to wait to be served to order anymore. Putting the ball in the restaurants court, and of course helping the restaurant portion control.
The food itself was good, the typical standard of Chinese restaurant food. The staff and their attitude was ok, though when I went in yesterday they gave me the sense that if you didn't have two people eating there at a time that you weren't good enough to eat there. When one of the waitresses was trying to tell me that it was only for a minimum of two people she spoke rather fast and I had to get her to repeat it and when I asked if she could repeat what she had said she gave me a rather dirty look, the sort of look that you get if you get caught talking in school.
All in all the restaurant is average but there is a rather communist feel about the place. There are other Chinese restaurants to choose from.

Read moreGreat place to eat Chinese food. It’s long been a place where Chinese people go to eat, so it isn’t aimed at English tastes like some restaurants do.
Quality of the food is very good. I’ve been for dim-sum and their selection is good. My go to restaurant in the area is Taipan in Milton Keynes and this place is on a par. Some dim sum dishes I prefer at Taipan and others I prefer here.
However, for my most recent visit we opted for dishes from their main menu and this is where I was most impressed. Everything we had was excellent. The meat dishes were great and I highly recommend their char siu, crispy belly pork (then portion here is much bigger than at Taipan and it’s less salty too), and their roast duck is also a winner (I’d go so far as to say it’s not far off the standard of Four Seasons and Goldmine in London’s Bayswater area, both renowned globally for their roast duck). We had a variety of vegetables and noodles, all were good. It’s a child friendly place and there’s a multi storey car park opposite, so parking is plentiful. Definitely...
