| - The first sign of things to come.was the incredibly sticky floor. I almost pulled my hip out of its socket, unstinking my foot, after standing in one spot too long.
I ordered the Ma Po Tofu, which took a fairly long time to prepare, especially considering there didn't seem to be any other customers or orders ahead of me.
I took my order back to my office, I can't say my expectations were very hi, but, upon opening the container, I discovered it only contained Tofu and some sauce.
For some reason I have always thought one of the key ingredients of the dish is ground pork.
It's been in the dish whenever I have ordered it at numerous other restaurants around the city.
My apologies if this is not a normal ingredient and all the other places have gotten it wrong by including it in their versions of the dish.
Needless to say, my quest for a halfway palatable, reasonably priced lunch in this area continues.
On the plus side, the decor will keep you amused, an eclectic blend of record jackets, a showcase full of crystal piano music boxes, home stereo centre and a mini bike/chopper on a stage.
The memories will have to suffice, as I can't say I enjoyed feeling like an insect trapped on a glue board, or the taste of the food in my mouth.
Will never return.
