The New Tungshing - Northampton

"This Chinese takeout place is fantastic! The food is delicious and the staff is exceptional. I highly recommend it."

You wouldn't think it would be possible to mess up a simple order like a chicken omelette and chips, right? Think again. The omelette was very dry and stodgy and the chips were as hard as nails. Ended up binning the lot and cooking myself something from scratch.

I rarely say this about restaurants in Northampton, but this local Chinese takeout is fantastic! They also serve a delicious Thai green curry.

As a journalist my hours of work are very varied so more often than not I return to my offices in Kingsley Park feeling hungry. I am now spoilt for choice as there are various restaurants and takeaway parlours catering for a wide variety of international based dishes. Three minutes from office is an excellent Chinese takeaway, The New Tung Shing, which came to Kingsley Park Terrace in 1976 but under a diffrent name. I moved my Northampton offices here in 1993. It's hours of opening, 17.00 23.00 match my demands as does their quality and pricing. They are closed on Mondays but are open on Bank Holidays. Parking is adequate and phone bookings normally take `10 20 minutes as sometimes it can be busy. Staff are very polite. The menu is extensive and prices reflect the quality.Payment is cash only. My favorite choice as a businessman working,late is a starter of Chicken and Sweetcorn soup, and main course of Chicken Chow Mein No.18). Geoffrey E. Dixon Hamilton. [hidden email] I last ordered there, 2nd.Sept.2015. 21.00.,

Always friendly and excellent food. Great value, only downside is have to pay cash. They dont deliver which is probably for the best as i would get this too regularly!!
