Takeaway Review – 222 Chinese Takeaway

Written by Smithy on April 22nd, 2007

222 Chinese Takeaway, 26 Bryson Road Edinburgh

222 Chineese Takeway has been open about 6 months and can be found on the north west junction of Bryson Road and Tay Street. The former Pizza takeaway can be easilly found – just follow the noise of the loud extractor fan.

Ordered Chiken and Pinapple, fried rice, chips and prawn crackers. Total waiting time 9 minutes. Total cost of £8.50.

Prawn Crackers – I could see the large container of pre-cooked crackers siting behind the desk so wasn’t expecting them to be freshly cooked. Not the bigest bag, but they tasted like prawns, so they were acceptable – 5/10.

Chips – the chips were tasty and lovely. 8/10 For chips from a Chineese.

Fried Rice – disapointed – basically boiled rice with a bit of soya sauce – 3/10.

Chicken and Pinapple – This was served in one of the larger plastic containers which is unusual. large chunks of chicken, a few bits of green and red pepper, and a wee bit of suace. Tasted ok, but I’m not a fan of large chuncks of chicken. Unfortunatly there wasn’t much sauce in the dish and not enough to cover the rice. 4/10

Would I use it again – probably not. Total raiting 5/10.
