| - All of the staff here have changed and the food has changed with them.
We used to come here at least twice a month. We would always get the same 3-4 dishes, plus one dish on the menu we haven't tried yet, and tonight was no exception. Everything was very salty and overly oily (yes Hunan food can, apparently, be overly oily).
For our new dish, we tried the salted fish eggplant hot pot. First of all, it was not in a hot pot, it came on a plate. Anyway, disregarding the false advertisement, this is one of my favourite dishes in general, but this one was only okay. It had no hints of salted fish at all, it just tasted of soy sauce, sugar, and sadness.
The service is a bit slower now, and the rate at which food comes out is comically slow for an Asian restaurant. We waited 25 mins for our first dish, then another 20 for the next one (which was a cold dish that probably should have come out first). And I don't know how long for the rest. We finished our pot of rice, yes I said pot of rice, before our second last dish came out.
Sadly, we probably won't be coming back here anymore. The quality of the food had been declining for a few months, but now you can clearly taste the lack of passion in their food.
