Fast Food
This place is conveniant if you are going to Vue Cinema's in Angel - It's right next to the cinema, unfortunately I wish it tasted a bit nicer!
The dumpling were fantastic - it was all going well to start with, we have the chicken dumplings filled with cabbage, chinese leaf, chinese chives and water chestnut. served with a chilli, garlic, sesame and soy sauce. (£4.50) - really good, we should have just ordered a whole lot of these!
I then had: chicken kare lomen
a spicy soup made from lemongrass, coconut milk, shrimp paste, red chillies, fresh ginger and galangal. served with ramen noodles and garnished with a marinated and grilled chicken breast, beansprouts, cucumber, fresh coriander and a wedge of lime.
Sounds delicious, but all it tasted like was soup with chilli, I had to pile on the soy sauce to get any taste whatsoever out of it - not impressed. (£8.20)
My partner had seafood ramen £9.00
noodles in a vegetable soup topped with seasonal greens and
wakame, grilled smooth dory, marinated and grilled black tiger prawns, grilled squid and kamaboka-aka.
The was one prawn.. and to be honest, if I had eaten that I would have been sick.
They call themselves fast food to excuse themselves from the fact that your meals never arrive out at the same time, something I see as a poor and basically unacceptable if you are going out for a meal and paying for it!
I'd go back for the dumplings, but I think my meals at home are nicer than what we got here...
