4 /5 Janet Burrell: My cousin was craving fried dumplings so we took a bus into Hounslow and then another from the bus station. It was along journey which we hoped would be worth it.
As a restaurant, it was fine, available tables, order taken quickly ... The food was ok but not as authentic as we had hoped. We ordered curry chicken and jerk pork with a side of fried dumplings and plantain. The dumplings had too much salt which made them difficult to consume. The person who ordered the pork, said it was really good (not a Caribbean person), the curry chicken lacked the authentic flavours of a Jamaican curry and had more of a masala flavour. The portions were a good size and the presentation was good.
I ordered a portion of dumplings and cabbage to take home. The dumplings as previously stated were too salty, the cabbage to my dismay had chicken peas in, not sure why, never seen that combination south of the river or in fact, anywhere else. All this being said, if I made it over that side again,I would go there again. Hopefully the flavours/ salt issues will be rectified.
