From the outside it appears as if this is a strictly-buffet affair - this isn't actually the case. You can order off a set menu or opt for the £7.95 buffet - however vegetarians note the only suitable dishes were chips, seaweed, salt and 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 £3.80 and and 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 which was piled high on the plate and got good reviews. Meat-eating Sean remarked that his pork dumplings and crispy duck stir fry were acceptable, however he was served two flat colas. Something wrong with the soda-stream?

All in all, far from gourmet but super-cheap and accessible.
