L d'Crux

This was the only Chinese open in the area on a Sunday. The Golden Pav on Blamey was closed and so was Blue Ocean. Went to try it and got a take away. The positive, portions are good, big and a lot, service was good considering it's a busy place this Sunday evening prob cos the only Chinese open. The schezuan beef, nice, soft tender beef slices and nice sauce, a bit of heat but not much. A must try. The Choy sum with Oyster sauce was nice but I found the sauce salty, but veg nice and crunchy. I only put a small amount of the veg sauce in my rice but we enjoyed the veg itself. The prawn toast was just okay, nothing to brag about, quite oily, prob better when dining in. The crispy chicken fillets in a special sauce... SKIP IT! DO NOT GET CRISPY CHICKEN FILLETS IN SPECIAL SAUCE, the sauce is the sweet sauce they use to dip spring rolls and prawn toast, the one for dipping not drowning. It's not special at all!! It was sickly sweet. I only picked the top and couldn't eat it after. I felt icky sick from the sweetness. Like, imagine your spring rolls or prawn toast drowning in the side sauce. Yes! That's what it was like. Not nice, right?! They need to take that out of the menu or actually make a special, different sauce not just add cornstarch and call it special. I reckon it would have been better without it or just give the so called 'special sauce' on the side and let us enjoy the crispy chicken. Errrr...possibly a new chef would make this place good/better?... Total damage $75 for 2, for entree and 2 mains and rice.
