  • Cheap Back Street Chinese Food Blew My mind in London Holborn. Quality Chinese food at a bargain price in Red Lion Street, London.
    Some of the best sweet and sour chicken I have tasted. Blew me away for the price. I shall return to this little Chinese gem.
    Off The Charts Chinese food made with love. A taste sensation

    Like you say Darren, these small businesses that give great service and food deserve all the publicity that you can give them. Well done for promoting them.

    Hey Darren, this is my dad’s restaurant! Thank you so so much for coming and we’re so happy that you enjoyed the food!! We also wanted to thank you as we’ve had a lot more customers the past week which may be due to your video. My dad’s upset that he didn’t get to take a picture with you though so if you ever do come back, please let him know. We would love to have you back! And to any of our regular customers who may be reading this comment, thank you so much, we really really appreciate it!!!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

    You’ve made me hungry for a Chinese now. Sweet and sour chicken is one of my favourites too and that one looked soooo good. Sauce rich in colour and not psychedelic. Sometimes they make the batter too thick and too big. Definitely one to try if ever I’m down there. Nice area with all the high buildings.
