Ordered a take away this evening as our normal Chinese was closed. I definitely won't be swapping over. Shredded chicken was rotten, really tough and stringy as was the second shredded chicken dish. Couldn't eat the chicken, ended up just eating the rice. Do not recommend.

Reviews
Went here for the Spice Bag, it was very overrated, walked out with a Bag of Chips with a little chicken. Very expensive! I will say this was my first experience with a spice bag, if this is what a spice bag is, Then I Absolutely do not understand where all the excitement about them comes from. My advice skip this, stop at Aldi get what you need and make it at home, I guarantee you’ll do better.
They do the nicest wrappos in waterford spice bag seasoning on them is lovely. Would recommend
