From the outside it appears as if this is a strictly buffet affair, but this isn't actually the case. You can order off a set menu or opt for the £7.50 all-you-can-eat buffet (however vegetarians should note the only suitable dishes were chips, seaweed, salt & pepper tofu, and rice, so best to stick to the set menu).

[[Bec]] had the vegetables in soup with noodles - substituting mushrooms for beancurd - for &pound;3.80 and it was very tasty with crunchy vegetables and lots of ramen in a massive bowl. [[Ewan]] had the veggie spring rolls for starters, which he found a bit bland, and the vegetable ho-fun noodles, which were piled high on the plate and were perfectly tasty. Meat-eating Sean remarked that his pork dumplings and crispy duck stir fry were acceptable, though he was served two flat colas. Something wrong with the soda-stream?

However, vegetarians should note that at least in March 2008 the only vegetarian dishes on the buffet were chips, seaweed, salt &amp; pepper tofu, and rice; so best to stick to the set menu.
All in all, far from gourmet but super-cheap and accessible.
