"Had a family meal at Zen Oriental in this evening. We have had meals there a number of times previously and have always enjoyed it, but sadly tonight this wasn’t the case. The food was very disappointing. The Chili king Prawn starters were deep fried...in batter in their shells so each time you took a bite, you got a mouthful of shell. Totally inedible without having to peel off the batter and shells which kind of defeats the purpose! Main courses were all disappointing too; in particular the Kung Po chicken looked very bland and unappetising and the sauce was thick and gloopy. The crispy chilli beef seemed to be all crispy with no beef. To round everything off, the coffee at the end of the meal could only be described as revolting totally stewed and tasted nothing remotely like coffee. It’s a shame that the food seems to have gone downhill it has always been so enjoyable on previous visits. Sorry, but we won’t be back there are far better Chinese restaurants in Aberdeen."
