“mmmmm mmmmmmm mmmmmmmmm”

Written on: 13/02/2012 by meinbestfood (1 review written)

first, the food. dee-lishus. we shared starters: seaweed, really good sized portion and very well cooked; tempura vegetables, perfect flavour and perfect batter; veggie dumplings; the sauce transported them into manna from heaven. my main was the fake duck ~ and frankly it was the best i've eaten. my friend chose chose the real duck, in plum sauce, and said it was the best she'd had since visiting china. after all that, no space for pudding!

the service was gently attentive (i'm not a fan of over-attentive) thoughtful, and individual ~ i felt the owner and his wife (or is that owner and her husband?) were ideally suited to running a restaurant, in that they seemed to know intuitively how much attention to pay to each customer.

frankly i'd eat there every week if i lived closer.

thanks yumcha ~ keep it up!

and to would-be customers? go! if you like chinese food you'll love this place.
