Best of the Best in Hounslow
Being very picky and used to having Chinese food in china town/ Hong Kong (they have very high standards/ quality), I found the Empire Chinese Restaurant in Hounslow. The restaurant is nicely decorated inside and looks a little expensive to be honest but I still dared to try it out. Although the restaurant was surprisingly empty (probably because it looks expensive) the quality of the food was amazing when compared with the other Hounslow Chinese restaurants (one time I had crispy duck and another time I had oriental fried rice). The service was fabulous, literally felt like I went to a very high class restaurant and when the bill came, it was shockingly cheap as I thought usually the quality of the food reflects the price of them. As I have fallen in love with this restaurant I don't need to go back to china town for food because the standards are pretty much equivalent if not better. This restaurant really puts the other Chinese takeaways or restaurants to shame. And the most important thing is that it delivers!!

An Excellent Takeaway Choice.
Whenever I move, one of my top priorites is to find a really good Chinese takeaway to live off for a week or two. As we moved into the area, I noted this takeway was very close by. The same evening I moved in I went and picked up a menu. I did not regret it. I found their service to be freindly and warm, they told us if we needed any advice on the area to just call them and ask, they couldn't have done anymore.We ordered a substantial meal for four of us, plus our cat. Well the cat got to share some chicken anyway. The meal was ready in good time, the only downside being that they do not deliver. Once home we all found our food to be very hot, fresh and extremely tasty. A lot of Chinese restaurants boost the taste of their food using monosodium glutamate - this is what often gives a very sticky ("glue") mouth for many hours or if you are unlucky when you wake up the next day, but this was not evident with the Empire's food - they didn't need to artificially enhance the quality of the food as it clearly stands on it's own.Pricing is very reasonable, you can get cheaper but the quality will suffer. The only place in the Hounslow area that could beat this has been reviewed by myself on this site and is a lot more expensive.
