Me and a friend came in to eat and it seemed that was an inconvenience, it is apparent that white people are not very wanted here, we noticed how friendly the lady server was to the Chinese clients and she was extremely rude an impatient with us, our questions were answered very abruptly and she was very unhelpful, she couldn’t even crack a smile. There was no reason for her to treat us this way as we were very polite and well mannered. This was the second visit, the first time we experienced similar treatment but just of brushed it off. After being treated like this a second time we definitely will not return. Its a shame as the food was very tasty. How sad to be treated like this in the same country you were born. Especially in 2025

This place was a fantastic discovery. Authentic Chinese food with a great variety of dishes. Tried Chinese Jasmin tea with honey, dumpling with a side dish of cabbage and and (sharer 😚) with chicken legs, duck tongues, cabbage and cucumber. I could also pay with WeChat 微信, which added to the fabulous experience 🎉

Absolutely brilliant. Had some great pork and cabbage dumplings 🥟 and a “not exactly Ma Po Tofu but almost”.

Everything hot, healthy, freshly prepared on the spot – just fantastic. Shame I’m going home to Singapore in a few weeks and I don’t live in Manchester!
