I like to go to Limehouse for its reasonably good (despite not so authentic) English food. However, this time I've had a terrible experience. I went for lunch with 4 friends, we sat down at 12:45.

I like to go to Limehouse for its reasonably good (despite not so authentic) English food. However, this time I've had a terrible experience. I went for lunch with 4 friends, we sat down at 12:45.

Food itself, the selections of the day were not inspiring: a) Chicken Burger, b) Pork Cutlet, c) Pasta. The reknown Fish and Chips was not on the menu, nor was there any resemblance to English food at all in any of the above. I ordered the cutlet. While the pork was juicy on the inside, the portion wasn't right. I would say it's larger than a morning pork cutlet from a local "cha chan ten", but definitely not enough as a standalone lunch.

Oh, and there's no choice on appetizer, a cream soup that tastes straight out of a campbell can was it.

Overall I'm terribly disappointed, given previously I quite liked this place. Definitely removing this restaurant from my Wanchai shortlist.
