Has anyone tried the new Chinese restaurant in Church street?   I went in there a few weeks ago with my family and had a great meal.  The service was excellent, the food arrived quickly and was well cooked and not too badly priced.  We went for the set menu and there was far too much for us.  The meal for 2 would have easily fed 3 or 4 adults.  

My only surprise with this new venture is lack of advertising.  Whenever I mention it to anyone they haven't even been aware it has opened.  Can't be doing much for their business.

I think it's in part of the old Conservative Club building

Does nyone know if they do any midweek "all u can eat" midweek specials like the restaurants in Chippenham or anything like the Wednesday Banquet night at the Spice of Bengal?

Apparantly they're going to try 'an all you can eat buffet' in the new year on Sundays.  Whenever I go past in the evenings they seem fairly busy, but it's dead at lunchtimes.

Yea i agree.

Though i guess they are aiming to be a quality outfit, not a cheapo all you can eat for a tenner kind of place.....

Like the idea though on a certain day !

I have been there about half a dozen times since it opened with mixed results. Generaly it has been good, but I really hope they do something with the interior design.

It has looked pretty busy the last few times I have walked past.

Why don't you all give it a go, its worth supporting to help bring more choice to calne.
