Randomness Guide to London Menu

Chinese restaurant in Norbury. It also does takeaway and delivery, and has a buffet on Sundays.

It's a reasonable size, seating around 60 people; four of the tables are large enough for groups of eight. The decor is pink, red, and cream photo.

bob visited on a Saturday lunchtime in December 2016. It wasn't obviously open when I arrived just before 1pm; they hadn't turned the sign around from "Closed" to "Open", and the lights were dimmed. They brought the lights up when I came in, and although I was the only customer at that point a couple of others turned up shortly after.

Prawn crackers were brought to the table, and I was given a fork and spoon; I wasn't asked if I wanted chopsticks, but when I asked for them they were brought along with a bowl and small plate.

Hot and sour soup (£3.50) photo was quite peppery but there wasn't much chilli hit. There was a decent meat content, consisting of prawns, chicken, and pork.

Crispy shredded beef (£5.80) photo was very crispy and possibly a touch burnt; there also wasn't much actual beef. Plain chow mein (£3.80) photo was fine though possibly a touch greasy.

I also had aubergine in black bean sauce (£5.80) photo. The aubergines were very soft and watery, and the black bean sauce was also quite watery. It wasn't as gloopy as I would normally expect from Anglicised Cantonese food, and I wished it had been a bit closer to the norm in this respect.

A 10% service charge was added to the bill photo

bob's verdict: I wouldn't bother coming back; it was nothing special, and the only decent thing was the hot and sour soup.

Accessibility: The toilets are up a flight of stairs.
