mizfit Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 China China in perth is run by a self obsessed weirdo who bullies staff, serves shite food and throws a temper tantrum if anyone ever criticises him. I know of 5 people who’ve had food poisoning from their food. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this place has looked same for about 20 years That's a takeaway? All I'd expect walking in there would be to wake up several hours later in a bath of ice and a kidney missing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Anyway, Paisley area. Cathay Cuisine - Chinese. Curry sauce is thickened out with so much cornflour that it arrived that lukewarm jellied way pretty much right away, quality of meat is shite and there's fucking millions of salt in it. Fortune House - Chinese. Been operating for about 30 years, stinking. Everyone I've ever heard talking about it has described the food as either binned or made them ill. Mirage - Indian. Use good quality cuts of meat and its clean but their curries are bland and tasteless. Mexita - A Mexican Italian takeaway (why?). Tried out of curiosity once, quote an art form to have two cuisine specialities and being good at neither. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know of 5 people who’ve had food poisoning from their food. I don't know the guy and have never physically been to the shop but I get deliveries from them and the foods been great. I only know of them because they deliver gluten free meals across scotland on set days so I order when their coming to Dundee. I think they're really popular for this because it's hard to find a reliable gluten free Chinese. Hopefully I'm not supporting a complete arsehole. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seagate one is how I imagine the inside of the gulag to look. How they've traded for so many years under so many different owners is beyond me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
