SPEEDTRIPLE Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Hi all, can anyone recommend any good Chinese restaurants on the Broads. There are numerous good eating establishments around the Broads, but i can`t think of any really nice Chinese ones?. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyMorgan Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Two really good takeaways, both of which deliver to the Yacht Station at Oulton Broad. We regularly use either and both are good. China Garden probably has the edge though. We are not so lucky with restaurants though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjg1677 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 China city in Horning is ok but it just seems to open when it feels like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnsherz Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Found a cracking Chinese when we moored up at Fleet Dyke (opposite South Walsham Broad). We did the walk into the village with the aim of finding a pub, but it was closed for renovation. A neighbour pointed us to this other place, an old pub that was now a kind of pub-cum-chinese takeaway/restaurant. It looked rather shabby on the outside, but we went in to find that it was rather shabby on the inside as well. However, the food was amazing, and the lady who ran the place was lovely, and even gave us weary hikers a lift back to the boat at the end of the evening! I really hope it's still there when we go back in a month's time... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjg1677 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Another good takeaway is the one in Loddon. Can't remember what it's called but it's not bad though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisB Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 There was an immigration control breach at South Walsham for which the owners received a custodial sentence so it might have changed hands, but I suppose the kosher staff could have kept it running while the owners were resting.

grendel Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 we had similar at our local excellent chinese, afterwards the food was never as good, once the chinese chefs had all gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MauriceMynah Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 A Chinese restaurant employing immigrant workers! Now there's a novelty !! Ok, sorry I know that wasn't your point, but it just occurred to me as funny. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPEEDTRIPLE Posted April 16, 2017 Author Share Posted April 16, 2017 Thanks for all the replies people, i`l keep an eye out for them. When in Loddon, it`s always either the Raj for an Indian, or the White Horse for anything else. Then of course, we have to make room for breakfast at Rosie Leas. It`s no wonder we always feel fat when we cruise away from Loddon lol. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essexgirl Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Can absolutely second Speedtriple's post. Have eaten at all three aforementioned establishments in the last fortnight and all are recommended. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where down this Friday and was updating our menus, tide tables etc and it's had a few bad reviews in the last 6 months. Last time we used it was all good, always give it a extra nuke to warm it up again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnsherz Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Yes, that's the place. Ah well, will have to wait and see next month if it's still as good as it was this time last year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UPDATE: No, it wasn't. :( Was expecting a warm welcome and a table from the lady that was there last year, instead we were greeted by two guys who barely spoke a word of English, and despite there being a roomful of empty tables, would only offer us takeaway - not much use given that the boat was 45 minutes' walk away! We left and wandered down to the Ship Inn instead, where the welcome, the food and the service was miles better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
