Amber Chinese Takeaway (Cambuslang) 2022 : Review

Todays Visit

I had spotted this had opened recently and wanted to try it out, but I noticed it didn’t appear on JustEat or FoodHub.

I then spotted one day they had their own website, so I took note and ordered my dinner to check them out.

The Food

I have heard good things from here so I decided to test their munchie box.

Small Munchie Box £8.50

I like a good munchie box every now and then, and I have always loved the munchie box from here’s nearby competition.

So how was it here?

The box it comes in is lovely and adds a really nice touch, where most other places just use a pizza box.

Opening up the box it smelled really good, though it wasn’t the same as the others.

I saw chicken on skewers, ribs, chicken balls and chips…but the chips didn’t look like some I have recently had they looked a finer coating but how did these all taste…well one way to find out.

Before I start eating, I wanted to tell you that I am quite strict in terms of fat, carbs, proteins etc. I always find tdee and check how many calories the meal will have. Now, let’s focus on food!

So it did have that nice salt and chilli flavour but a really nice subtle one, which I really liked. Yeah I did miss that little kick but it was very nice.

Who does it better here or their competition? hmm to be honest I like both as both are very different to each other so I guess it would depend on the style I was after that night and just order from that one.

Have you tried this from here? let me know your thoughts.

Deep Fried Mars Bar £3.10

I spotted this on the menu and had to try it, as I have had a few in the past and really liked them.

Opening the container this looked nice, even if one was squashed due to sitting on the chocolate sauce.

I took a bite and mmmm I loved it!

If your put off by how it sounds, think of a warm chocolate fudge cake with a slight crispness t it and that’s really this.

V: 23rd October 2019


Well this is a first for me, as I have had many plans over the past few years to come here and eat or drink…or even both but something has always made me change my plans.

Tonight I was attending a Jagermeister Cold Brew event so I thought I would visit early and finally see the Tiki Bar and try the food.

The Food

Since I had an event to attend I didn’t want to be late, so I decided just to go for small dishes for quickness….but next visit I will try some other dishes.

Dinner

Honey Pork Ribs £6.50

pork ribs in sticky honey sauce (Ce) (GF, DF, NF)

This smelled good and looked nice, and I have not had ribs for ages so I was really looking forward to this.

This was messy, full of flavour and just mega mmm the meat was tender and the sauce was really good.

Its a bit costly for what you get compared to other restaurants.

Salt & Pepper Squid £6.50

lightly battered squid tossed in mixed spices with Thai sweet & sour dressing, served with green Mayo

I love this dish so I had to try it here.

I picked up my squid and it was soft! huh what ever sauce they drizzled over the top has made it soft…shouldn’t this be crispy?

It was nice but the flavour was lacking and also I expected them to be crispy or even just a little.

Again a little costly for the portion size.

Sweet :

Deep Fried Mars Bar £3.00

I saw this and had to try how here do it.

Ok so this was actually really good, I think I still prefer the one from a chip shop but it was nice here and I would have this again here.

Visit Overall :

What a disappointment, don’t get me wrong the food was good but a little costly for the portion sizes as I have had these dishes at other restaurants for cheaper and was just as good or better.

Sorry guys, I will try something else next time I visit.
