    Good cooking, but what a rip off!

    Ordered the sesame prawn toast which was decent.

    Also ordered Grilled King Prawn ("grilled jumbo king prawns served with Thai style seafood sauce"). Hilariously they then brought out a single prawn with sauce. We asked why the menu said PRAWNS yet they served us PRAWN but they said that was how the chef did it. £6.85 FOR A SINGLE PRAWN. We couldn't stop laughing! To make things funnier they served it on a metal grill on top of a plant pot which completely dwarfed the size of the solitary prawn.

    As the solo prawn was taken away we awaited our mains... and got a very salty replacement soup. We then received an unordered pork Pad Thai and a delightfully junior sized duck Pad Thai. What was especially odd was the generosity with the duck compared to the lack of far cheaper noodles.

    Our ordered chicken Pad Thai came after I had finished my own main. Again salty but we were pleased to find it bigger than a stray noodle and a peanut (and strangely bigger than the duck pad thai).

    A hilarious meal but we won't be coming again. Serve some proper sizes.
