I ate there this past weekend with my dad and couldn't believe the plummet in standard since last time we went, a month ago. The usually excellent pad Thai came as a pile of seriously overcooked noodles containing two prawns (honestly, only two) and a handful of shards of unidentifiable meat, and the chicken and pork in dad's sweet and sour had turned into leathery, rock-hard bullets. Meanwhile, a side order of crispy lamb - usually reliably good - seemed to be deep-fried skin only; all in all, a really nasty experience. I wonder if the sudden influx of crowds from the nearby SouthGate centre is proving to be too much for the BK kitchen to handle? A great shame; hope it sorts itself out soon.

The food is fresh and full of flavour, fast service and friendly staff ( especially Adelaide who is great fun and will always recommend a dish if you're stuck on the menu!) very reasonably priced too - can highly recommend.

I had a light and fresh Wanton Soup side with a main of Roast Duck and Char Siu with stick rice, a frosty bottle of Asahi and all the green tea I could drink for just over £12. The service is fast and friendly and the always strong Asian contingent among the clientele, in my opinion, speaks volumes for the quality of the food on offer. The next best thing to Chinatown!
