    Yea I used to visit Mr. Assfinger's in Newpark until I went there one day and my Vegetarian Thai Green Curry was served with chicken in it.

    Wouldn't mind but I'd been buying the same bloody dish about twice a month since the place opened, you'd think they'd have known. Anyway I advised them of their mistake and handed it back, and also told them i hoped i wouldn't find any renegade chicken in the replacement dish, though i had my suspicions, and guess what. I did.

    I also found what appeared to be a pube approximately 38mm in length in a portion of their fried rice once. The chicken incident was the last straw though.

    Swans food is positively delightful (though their flyers say Savour the delicious taste of Swans (or something to that effect). This could easily be misinterpreted by a foreigner or someone who isn't very bright.

    I really must give Vindees a go. Did I hear Vin Diesel owns it?

    Do they do chicken-free vegetarian dishes and pubeless fried rice?

    I honestly think those chips are one of the nicest you can get in town.

    I'm not a massive chinese food fan but I tend to piggy-back someone else's order when they're ordering.

    Li Garden which used to be the Mandarin has really gotten good in the past 2 years, the dishes and service are great quality.

    Outside of that, I've had some dodgy takeaways from Swans but anytime I've eaten in there, it's been top notch.

    So I guess what I'm saying is Li Garden for a takeaway and Swans for dining out.

    not a massive chinese fan myself but when i do get one i like lee garden or oriental wok in irishtown. Tried the one at eurospar because it always smells lovely from the outside but found it to be the most bland chinese i've ever tasted

    Emerald Garden. best fried rice in town

    I had a Swans again recently. I love the portion sizes, you'd feed two people with one portion out of it.

    I'd say my toilet's new nickname for me is 'The Boomerang' though.

    Have to say it's Swans mainly now for me, tried most around but Swans portion sizes and the free prawn crackers and chicken pieces makes a difference. Oriential Wok isn't too bad either.
