Reliable and courteous parking service for visitors to London Gatwick airport.
I have often gone past this place, seen that it is full, and ended up somewhere else. Having now been I can see why it is always full and discovered that there is a downstairs section as well. So it it not always as full as it seems - if you see what I mean. It deals in Pan Asian cuisine and is quite, quite excellent. I had Thai, Malaysian and Vietnamese dishes and there were probably other countries represented as well. My three were wonderful - fresh zingy flavours, good portions, reasonable prices. House wine was excellent, service unobtrusive and professional. The decor downstairs is worth a mention too. Bright red exotic fish and several turtles swim about. Not only this but there are several almost life size wooden ladies dotted around the place striking strange Pan Asian poses and finally, when I went, a superb beautifully painted dragon-type figure which may have been wood or possibly paper mache. Whatever it was, it was almost worth the visit just to see it. All this and at the top end of Dean St. I will be back. Harry
