The food full is a must if you love everything oriental, it has Chinese, Malaysian, Thai, Japanese, Indonesian the lot and you can tell its good because on a Sunday lunch time it is full on Orientals. The drinks are fantastic plus it’s cheap as well. It’s a large food hall with kiosks around the outside of the different cuisines. You go to the different ones you like, order your food and you get given a number, when your number is called you collect your food and enjoy. The nice thing is because it is so cheap you can try loads of variations and if you don’t like it you can try something else. The last time I went I tried chili chickens feet, yum.
There is also a great supermarket where you can pick up loads of oriental ingredients.

I will most definately be visiting, thanks for that bapoo. :wink:

Known fact. When you go on holiday and are looking for some food follow the locals. When i went to Tunisia we found this tiny little house that was selling food. A giant bowl of (pasta/rice not to sure what it was) and chunks of meat for about 4 Dinar (sp?) [Its Tunisian Currency]

One of the best meal ever.

Moral : follow locals for good food

I agree. One other thing I look for in an ethnic restaurant is the number of ethnic people eating there. For example, there's this awesome Chinese restaurant close to my house and you can always find Chinese people eating in it. There's also a Turkish restaurant in downtown Boston and you can always find Turkish people in it, shows that people from those countries really think that the food is authentic.
