Golden Chopsticks

Reviewed By michelledP4226CT

We've now eaten here 3 times in 3 weeks, latest time with whole family. (7 of us) No-one disappointed with meal at all. Food is delicious everytime. From sesame prawn toast with generous topping and a delicious sauce accompaniment to the spare ribs which were falling off their bones and dripping in a delicious sauce. Beef in black bean was popular at our table, beef apparently was tender and a generous portion. I had Bangok Prawns which were spicy and sticky. Just right. Service was very attentive, one of the waitresses was quite new and could perhaps have been taught that it is polite to wait until everyone at the table has finished before clearing plates but that is a minor complaint. Restaurant not busy but takeway seemed non stop. Excellent value for money too, just under £25 a head including 2 courses and a few drinks. Becoming a new firm favourite.

Really good menu with a wide choice, and while dishes had plenty of flavour they were mercifully lacking in excessive grease or fat - which Indian food can be prone towards. Good staff too. The restaurant looks fresh, modern and with some lovely large lamp shades hanging from the ceiling. Why I do not give it excellent is that those beautiful soft large lamps were not on, and instead there was very harsh bright lighting from the ceiling. This robbed the restaurant of any ambience. So easily remedied. And maybe that night whoever was in charge didn't realise how important lighting is. Otherwise an excellent evening.Dear TiggyWalkerFirst of all thank you very much for choosing to dine at voujon. Our Voujon family is truly happy to read your constructive review on TripAdvisor regarding your dining experience at Voujon. The way you praised our food and hospitality is given us great joy.

Visited this evening, Sunday 9th June and very much enjoyed our two curry choices, accompanied with a naan and rice dish. Service was polite and professional. I would advise being very clear when requesting the bill that you are using the Meerkat Meals offer to ensure they know this, also clearly state this when booking and on arrival. This was accepted for us. Thank you to all!

Multi-Award winner Bombay Lounge is truly highly recommended. Situated in Dalkeith, Edinburgh this Indian and Bangladeshi restaurant really made me miss home. On arrival for our 7 pm booking, we were greeted by friendly staff. Once seated, Michael Singh (owner of the restaurant) came over and introduced himself and welcomed us. What a vibrant man, for an owner to be working side by side with his staff and connecting with his guest, is the #1 secret in bringing your guest back time and time again. Within seconds our friendly waiter provided our menu's. We not only had an amazing dinner but the close attention to detail, cleanliness and service were of top quality. So glad my sister chose Bombay Lounge, being away from home for more than 2 months I really missed my Durban, SA curry and I enjoyed the best curry ever last night. As an ex-hospitality industry owner, I experience once again the love and passion an owner has for his restaurant, staff and guests. Thank you once again for a lovely meal and evening.

I was recommended to eat here by my host at Rathan House, B + B. A smart restaurant, with freshly starched, white tablecloths and a pleasant ambience. I enjoyed a mild lamb curry (can't recall exactly which one) with spinach bajee. Good food, well-presented. I accompanied it with a pint of Kingfisher.Had a long chat with the proprietor who knew Cambridge well - my nearest city. A very pleasant, straightforward man.Strongly recommended.Hello John, it was a pleasure to host you and I'm glad you had an excellent experience at Itihaas. Many thanks for taking time out to review Itihaas and write such wonderful compliments. All the best and look forward to a future visit on your return. Thank you.

Chef Chi

Reviewed By andygm10

I live in Musselburgh and this is the only decent Chinese restaurant/takeaway in a five mile radius of the town. Most establishments round here specialise in gloopy sauces and stodgy rice, Chef Chi thankfully have neither of these. When ordering a takeaway for collection ask how long it will be before it will be ready. This is a very popular restaurant and waiting times at busy periods can be up to half an hour.I’ve had the occasional sit in meal here too and can thoroughly recommend it.

Reviewed By David K

Dropped in for an early dinner and to say we were disappointed would be an understatement. We are very familiar with Thai food having been to Thailand on three occasions and sampled Thai restaurants around the world, and this place does not serve authentic Thai food. Bland and unimaginative served with indifference, the complete opposite of a true Thai dining experience. Avoid it at all costs.

Highly recommended this restaurant if you want to taste and fodder yourself with nutritious foods. I simply expect more than aesthetics, I am very traditionalist at food. I had tried before Ba Ku Teh, on a different version, but this one was heavenly.When you see those pieces of meat falling of the rib bones, and the precious herbs as licorice giving an extra flavor to your lunch, you feel reassured, and looked after. I went to the smaller version of Macau Kitchen at West Crosscauseway to eat, there you will find usually 4 courses you can eat sitting or take away. All the food takes in average 2 or even 4 hours to cook. The space is small, the menu is minimal, but its that the way I like it, because I can have a meal for £10, or £12 if I buy a beverage, and quality is paramount. Sometimes less is more! Dont miss this place!Thank you Paulo Our Signature South East Asian dish- Bah Kut Teh is now the most popular dish at our little sister - MK TabernaPlease come by to try our limited edition **Dry Pot Bah Kut Teh**on Sturday from 11:30am - 1:00pm
