What's your name? Paolo

Where is it? Wild Rice, London Road, Sheffield

What's the grub like, then? It can be quite difficult to get a decent chinese/thai takeaway in Sheffield but Wild Rice manage it with ease. The ingredients are fresh and the sauces not full of the usual additives. A great starter is the aromatic crispy pork, a cheaper alternative to the crispy duck but just as tasty with the pancakes and 'special' sauce! All the rice dishes taste fresh and compliment the main courses well. Try the Char Sui Pork Cantonese Style you get a great size portion and the onions in the sauce are damn tasty!

What did you drink? Cans of Pepsi or 7UP or bottles of Coke, standard fayre really!

What's the crowd like? I usually have the food delivered to my door so the fellow diners are slightly dubious!

And the vibe? If you collect your food the reception area is very modern and stylish with the kitchens on display through a blue glass wall, very entertaining!

Anything else you'd like to say? Very customer friendly and prompt delivery, a free special surprise with your main course is a good touch and usually pretty tasty, there's also free chop sticks which adds to the overall excellent impression. They could take debit cards tho, cash or cheque only I'm afraid!

Value for money? 10 - £12 for a starter, main and rice/noodles, excellent value for the quality you get!

Heard about this place through a friend so thought I'd try it out. Very different to your typical Chinese - modern decor, choice of Chinese AND thai, and restaurant quality food. Spot on.

Matt
It's not particularly cheap but you get what you pay for. the food's great, and it's definitely the most stylish takeaway in Sheffield. 31/05/05
