Chung Ku

We have been going to Chung Ku for years, we last went for my Daughters 21st Birthday, A few years back we met Paul Mcgann there. It's my wife's and my favourite restaurant!

Chung Ku's location is a dichotomy. It is located in a seemingly insalubrious end of town and yet beautifully located right by the Mersey. Once you are in, you are faced with a beautiful, panoramic, celing-to-floor view of River Mersey. There is plenty of parking. The food is delicuous and authentically Cantonese Chinese. You know it is frequented by Chinese people, not only by seeing so many Chinese people there, but by the number of large round tables. That is a big giveaway. We had stir-fry morning glory with garlic; stewed oysters & pork belly; and sizzle plate Chinese-style beef. Unusually, they not only have a dim sum chef, they serve dim sum in the evening, so we couldn't resist ordering a portion of steamed prawn dumplings. Tip....ask for the Chinese menu. That is where all the best food lies. The staff are very friendly, so ask them to help you to expand your horizons and eat like the Chinese.

All the food came on time. The location is amazing. Full panoramic mersey views. Good portions of food. Drinks and food are expensive but high quality and filling. Staff are friendly and the food arrived perfectly on time.
