I love Bamboo Garden - I hope that doesn't mean it's moving out of Ossy. It's so close for us that we can stroll there and both have a glass of wine or beer. It's a bit on the pokey side though but love the food.

Also, love Franco's but again that's partly because it's so convenient - I don't think they've changed their menu for years but always decent grub.

Had a bad meal at Checco's once which was a shame because it kind of wiped out all the previous good meals I've had there. Haven't been back since, perhaps it's time to give it another go!

Like the food at bamboo garden very much, but what puts me off is the service. Find them very slow and lacking in enthusiasm.

Rather have it that way than slap dash dump.

O Heck I hope not I dont really like that one (Bamboo Garden), not a patch on the food at Guide Chinese! Also I did'nt like the service either, youngish staff with a dont give a damn attitude on both our visits there.

Guide one is really good - think it's a cantonese though. It's just not as convenient for us which makes us sound a bit lazy but when you've got a decent one on your doorstep it's much easier to frequent it.

Dont worry I'm lazy too, if i had a decent one near to us i would'nt wander very far either!

Yes, West End chippy is really good plus huge portions - one bag of chips feeds the four of us. No potato famine in Ossy.

looks like a winner west end chippy is certainly brill, p.s. best chinese takeaway for my money kwong-ming on blackburn rd.
