Sense — Restaurant in England

It was my first time visit Durham. After a 24- hour of international flight. I wanted to try some hometown food. I found this restaurant based on Google review.

We managed just 1 pancake each with lean duck meat, the rest was just too fatty. Our main course, ordered with egg fried rice , was poor. Prawns were uncooked and the only vegetables in the dish were carrots and cucumber! I’m going to feed our local badger with the duck and prawns. We won’t order...
