RJIE 18: FantAsia

Sometimes I just can't be arsed actually going into an actual nice restaurant or cafe and waiting for a meal. So I just be lazy and get fast food. This is the one at Garden City shopping centre, I honestly am not interested in any of the restaurants that are open there so I'm always stuck for ideas when I'm trying to kill some time. Hopefully with the new expansion there will be a plethora of nice places to go out to.



I got the spicy chicken wings and Beijing zha jiang noodles. The spicy chicken wings are deep fried and are sprinkled with a salty capsicum, chilli, purple onion and green onion topping before they are served for you. The coating is deliciously crunchy even though this chicken isn't fresh from the fryer. The topping reminds me of what my mum uses for her salt and pepper calamari. I was very happy to be eating this.

The Beijing zhajian noodles were a pork mince seasoned with chilli bean sauce with a topping of shredded cucumber and green onion on top of chewy thick, yellow wheat noodles. They were a little spicy but in the way that Shichuan peppercorns are with their mouth numbing qualities?  I didn't particularly like this and mostly left it alone.

FantAsia
Atmosphere:4, fast food convenience.
Service: 7, fast and super cheerful. If you don't recognise the FantAsia brand, these are the super cheerful Asian girls always handing out samples and menus when you walk past.
Food: 6, the chicken wings were really good but the noodles weren't great.
