Comforting English Fare at Panda & Son
2019-05-02  992 瀏覽
Found out about this new restaurant earlier this year so I have been wanting to try it.
You can't miss it if you pass by on the tram or bus because there is a huge pillar with a big panda with a blue background and flag.
According to their Facebook, they specialize in Sweet and Sour Pork and English style Chinese dishes so I just couldn't wait to go.
The menu has changed slightly and now they do pub favourites such as Fish and Chips, Curries and Pies.

It was hard deciding because all the dishes were my favourites but in the end I reduced it to Shepherd's Pie.
Then I had trouble deciding between sweet and sour chicken and the black bean fish.
Ideally I should have picked the fish because they use cod but I miss sweet and sour chicken so I had that.


I loved the plates as they are the typical plates you would find at home.


Both dishes came at the same time so it was such a big struggle in the sense what to put in my mouth first so I scooped them both on to my plate.


In the end, tried the Shepherd's Pie first and the potato mash was really cheesy and delicious and the lamb mince at the bottom was rich and satisfying.
The sweet and sour chicken was exactly how I was expecting it to taste because English style Sweet and sour has green peppers which you can taste infused into the chicken.
For drinks, I had breakfast tea which is the most basic tea before all the fancy teas like Earl Grey came into fashion.

Friend had the lemon and lime bitters.

Finished with the sticky toffee pudding which comes with ice cream however I requested for custard because custard is traditionally served with puddings, but I can understand why restaurants serve ice cream instead as it is quicker just to scoop it out.

The pudding was soft and sweet and I think it contains dates as well because you can really taste the sweetness from it.
 OVERALL, I was really satisfied and will come back for lunch as they have the Fisherman's pie and Butter Chicken.
