We are here to offer you a variety of good quality, tasty food and a choice of fine wines. This is provided with an excellent service within a relaxing, comfortable and pleasant atmosphere and surroundings.
For 5000 years different regions of China have perfected different styles of cooking techniques with the distinctive flavours of China. We are proud to present the varying aspects of these unique regions into our popular menu “Seafood, Peking, Szechuan and Canton”. Each cuisine offers you a variety of contrasting tastes.

Peking Cuisine
Blends the vivid flavours of spicy, sweet with sour; something of an experience!
Szechuan Cuisine
Tends towards the hotter and exotic dishes from the heart of the Orient.

Spreads across the range of flavours accommodating everyone; a complement to every palate.
We are confident that the selections in our menu will whet your appetite for a culinary express to the Orient.

Had set meal for 2 (S2) as a takeaway, again excellent food well prepared, definitely a cut above the average takeaway and well worth paying a little extra for.
Have used this restaurant many times in the past and never been disappointed, only used takeaway as Covid restrictions are in place. Portions are really generous you never leave hungry, one day we'll be back to normal!
