Happy Gathering

It's always a good sign when a Chinese restaurant is filled predominently with Chinese. All generations eat here and enjoy the excellent menu. The atmosphere is friendly and the food good.

I visited this restaurant as part of a corporate day out for guests of the company I work for. Due to the nature of the day, the restaurant itself was filled to capacity, and yet this did not hinder the level of service given by the very friendly staff.

The meal was from a set menu, but there was something for everyone in our party. The food was hot, and the courses served in a length of time that was just right: not too fast, yet not too slow.

The downstairs bar area is ideal as a meeting place, with plenty of seating, and some very comfortable sofas.

Unfortunately, I noted two drawbacks, one of which is through no fault of the restaurant owners: 1) The location in Cardiff, which is a highly populated, well-used shopping street, about 15minutes brisk walk from Cardiff Central train station; and 2) The toilets are of an average state, and can be cramped during busy periods.

Overall, it did not detract from the meal itself, nor the whole day out.
