I haven’t been back to the Pant since I found a used fag stump in my pasta, and when I complained I was accused of just trying to win a free meal. Insulted, I paid up in full and left.
Have you thought of trying the Croes Howell?
I also rate Anise and Black Peppers.
If you don’t mind a taxi/ drive then The Bridge Inn in Hope is a very good Chinese too.
