Unpretentious, healthy, and great value.
I love this restaurant so much.
I stumbled across it by chance, looking for some cheap noodles, and didn't really expect it to be particularly good quality.
My boyfriend and I were sat at the white, space age tables, all part of the minimalist and charming decor.
A friendly smiling waitress then came and took our drinks orders, I plumped for the jasmine tea, £1 for unlimited top-ups, which was steaming hot and very fragrant.
My other-half went for one of the fresh home-made health drinks, with carrot juice and other goodies. This was also delicious and not packed with sugar like most commercial drinks.
We decided to order the Tong Mein soup, with chicken and seafood respectively.
After a few minutes, the HUGE bowls of steaming broth arrived, and we tucked in hungrily.
The bowls really are massive, and are full of a delicious and very nutrient rich. In the bowl with the soup, are a large helping of noodles, sliced carrot, broccoli and bok choi.
The veg are so fresh and bright, they must have been just thrown into the broth, losing none of their vitamins.
Then there is a very generous helping of prawns, seafood, chicken, and other goodies. The king prawn soup is bursting with prawns, unlike some restaurants they don't skimp on the goodies!
I also highly recommend the dumplings, which are bursting with flavour (my mouth is watering as i type!).
It's approx £7 for a Tong mein, so it's pretty good value for a great big feast of good food!
