Rasa (Restaurant / Restaurant)
08 October 2005

I can't understand how this restaurant ever merited the Time Out review it bears in its window. The food is fine, if you want a stomach-full of batter (seemingly every dish is deep fried in a not-particularly-pleasant batter). The waitress helped us choose our dishes and frankly I wish I hadn't asked her as they were pretty execrable. Rather reassuringly, I don't see the restaurant as packed out as it used to be.

This restaurant used to be fantastic but it has really lost the plot. What used to be excellent, authentic, delicately spiced dishes are now basically average Chinese-takeaway standard. Stewed gelatinous dishes with limp noodles. The Spring Rolls are really disgusting! All the passion for great food has been lost. Shame.
