REVIEW

THE LOTUS FLOWER

I tried the Lotus flower for the first time this month with my family for my dad's birthday, and I realised that it was easily the best Chinese restaurant we've eaten in.

The surroundings were very modern, yet it still felt airy and cosy. The waiters were very welcoming and helpful, and not too rushed, as is often the case in some popular restaurants.

As I was eating with a group of six, we managed to try a good range of items on the menu; between us, we couldn't find single thing that wasn't satisfying and delicious. Every dish featured wonderful combinations of flavors. All the ingredients were clearly fresh and of the highest quality, and I thought the seafood was particularly tasty. My parents felt we were given very good value for money, because that meal came to about 10€ per person, which they thought was very reasonable.

All of us would highly recommend this restaurant, and it is just a short walk from our house, we will definitely be back for many more dinners!
