   Stumbled across this place as I was walking around Epsom waiting for car to be serviced. Food was delicious with choice of noodles and rice with protein. Chilli oil was excellent too. Great portions and keen to come back for more.

   A friend of mine mentioned this place over dinner a few weeks ago and shamefully, I had forgotten all about it! I use to come here every so often when it was the smaller shop back when they opened in 2010, and I so glad they have expanded which is reflected of their quality and progress over the years. Of course, now reminded of the place I had to plan my next visit and decided to take mother there for her Birthday lunch. Sadly, it does have to be a lunch, or late lunch at that with Thursday and Friday being their latest close of 7pm. But it is the perfect place for a little spot of lunch if you’re a fan of Chinese cuisine. Not forgetting to mention they’re an award winning eatery that also takes pride in selling China teas, teaware, teapots and chopsticks. The weather can be a deterrent if cold and raining, but don’t let that put you off. There’s some seating indoors but mostly for outside as the magic needs to happen indoors. The menu is vast, with a build-your-own style of ordering that actually keeps things simple. You pick your carb base, like rice or noodles, then your protein. There are some set meals like Thai Green Curry and there’s a good selection of sides like Vegetable Spring Rolls, Golden Prawns and Steamed Buns. Usual selection of canned drinks from the fridge but over 80 different teas to choose from! Being the hot-head I am, I immediately went for the Honey Crunch Chicken (deep fried crispy chicken in a sweet and spicy sauce) with Rice Noodles and a side of four Mini Duck Rolls. My mum getting the Slow Cooked Pork (pork shoulder with onions) on Egg Noodles and a large Spring Roll. The food was rich, delicious and packed full of flavour, all being cooked freshly on the premise. Decent sized portions and reasonable priced. As expected, good for vegetarians and there’s Vegan options too. Not to say don’t come as a small party (more than 4) but ideal for a couple and takeaway is also an option. But there is limited space so expect a wait if there’s a few of you and it’s during peek time, but the food is amazing and perfect for a lunch break.

   I always have the honey crunch chicken with extra hot chilli sauce, and if I’m feeling extravagant I also get a roti. There aren’t many seats, and most of the seats are outside, but it’s sheltered so not too cold, so I people watch who goes into the Ashley Centre as I eat a delicious meal. You might have to wait 10-15 minutes for your food but that’s hardly a long wait for freshly prepared food.

   Perfect delicious healthy dishes not like most Chinese takeaways full of sugar, MSG,oils. Someting I been looking for all my life... As I can't eat any other Chinese as it's simply junk food. There are plenty of vegetarian options Too! And brown rice!!

   Great for a quick lunch. Wide range of Asian dishes and quick service. Wait can be a bit long during peak lunch times. Food is good and portion sizes decent.

   The food was fresh and cooked well, I recieved alot of rice and hardly any Prawns. I ordered sweet and sour Prawns, which I was not impressed with, I counted 6-7 Prawns alot of rice and the sweet and sour sauce was similar to uncle Ben's. The spring roll was nice and tempura Prawns were good The staff were really welcoming and friendly. The wait time was good.
