The Fountain Garden

I don't really know what to say here. This is, sincerely, amongst the very best food I have ever eaten! As soon as I got out of the car I was hit with an otherworldly aroma of the most savoury, spicy, caramelised goodness. I don't even know what it was. It was SOMETHING ELSE. Quite a wait for food, a fair few comments mentioning this, the phone constantly ringing, it was almost chaotic, they were knocking food out rapidly but clearly the popularity of the place is on a different level. And for good reason. Seriously, every single Chinese takeaway NEEDS to come and eat this food. This should be the benchmark. I have tried and enjoy MANY of them on the south side but not one comes even close to the flavours that are being concocted at Fountain Garden. It's just... beyond. Spicy BBQ ribs with black bean sauce and peppers. Deeply rich and moreish. Special Curry, chock with roast pork, the softest chicken, at least 6 massive king prawns and button mushrooms, and a curry sauce that actually has depth of flavour and a non-stodgy consistency. A succulent chicken with pineapple and ginger dish, served in a superb sweet and sour sauce, it was utterly delightful. I want to eat everything on the menu. I'll be sure to order as early in the night as possible! Haha. Also, the lovely lad gave me some chocolate covered biscuits to take home for the kids because he'd ran out of fortune cookies. Nice touch! 👍

This is my best Chinese takeaway. Love the Salt n Chilli Ribs. Won't go anywhere else from now on. Always busy, which is a good sign. Visited again as the last time was really nice, but unfortunately...this time wasn't that good. All the salt n chilli ribs were fatty & couldn't eat them& the chips were really dry. Maybe miss out Thursdays. Try again next week 🤞 On busy times when you ring to order, if your given a time slot say, 8pm...add another 30,45 mins on top of that as it's that busy. Apart from that it's still a really tasty Chinese.
