Unequivocally the worst chinese takeaway ever. As a regular customer of Happy Gardens, I am dismayed that the standards have plummeted through the floor lately. Every item in the mixed combination starter was over-done, dried-out and hard. The quarter slice of prawn toast was a struggle to cut through, the pancake roll and curry puff were just little parcels of greasy pastry, which clearly they buy in frozen at minimal cost. The skewer of satay chicken was tasty but dry and hard, and disturbingly, we paid extra for the single chicken wing and single spare rib, to be made salt and chilli style, despite there being no cost difference if you order them separately. They both arrived without salt and chilli. The chef's speciality mixed meat garlic and chilli had no garlic taste whatsoever, and consisted of 70%+ vegetables, three small slivers of beef, two small lumps of char sui pork, two prawns and the rest of the meat made up by cubes of processed chicken, which was tasteless and served in a wattery sauce that never thickened up even after a night in the fridge. The chicken was so bad, I wouldnt feed it to an animal. Chefs special ??? My ARSE. The side-dish of fried rice, which they have the cheek to charge 2.40 for, had clearly been put in the container hours before and left in a warm oven, as it was dried out and horrible. The side-dish of salt and chilli noodles, at 4.40, were cold and in the container the seasoning was accumulated on the noodles at some areas but not in others, and therefore made the noodles appear burned. The onion rings, although edible, were very greasy, had burned bits on the batter, and were far from the usual Happy Gardens standard. The only dish that was acceptable were the salt and chilli king prawns. They were just as expected, and quite lovely. The takeaway was very busy, although I fail to understand why , if they are serving such slop, but busy or not, there is no excuse for such awful service and product. If I had wanted greasy-spoon standard cafe food, that is what I would have gone and bought, instead of paying these jokers 30.00+ for a takeaway for two. Happy Gardens. ?? . Seriously unhappy customer !!! BTW, I sent this same review to them, over 2 weeks ago, and they havent bothered to reply
