Could just be chinese whispers......Tinkerbell said:I heard a nasty rumour tonight about the The Golden Orient, Buffet Bar - Chinese - Hurricane Close, Stafford.
Sadly my son came home from school (as he heard it in the playground) and I also had a phone call from the mother in law lol
Anyway, without going to much into it .. there has been rumours they found dead animals in their freezer !!
SERIOUSLY if this was the case they would have been closed down straight away!
I did actually ring them ... and they said this has been a rumour going round for 2 weeks.
Its hard enough to get a business going nowadays. but I personally cannot help wondering if this started when the travellers were sent packing. The same rumour was started about a chinest buffet bar in Newcastle/
Anyways, whoever started it - if there was ANY truth - they would have been shut down.
Oh yes i know that place, it is mainly a sweet/desert type shop. Just under the bridge on the way to Wolves. Poor bloke was a dead as a doornail and they were just carrying on around him. The environmental health were not impressed.Scoot Doggy Dogg said:Or my cousin who basically pays to get in and eats sweetcorn [mostly] and salad... weird.Trumpet said:Makes me smile on the odd occasions I use The Big Wok in Birmingham, people paying a fiver to pile their plates high with chips.
There was that famous case in Wolves tho where the staff were preparing the meats for Abrakebabra or wherever and there was a dead colleague sitting alongside them...
the story about the microchip has also been said about Parkside chinese (Mandarin House) The same chinese that had a full inspection on rate my place and got 5 stars.tekkers said:I heard one about a microchip and the Golden Orient yesterday, from a mate who said the person that told him, was the one who was eating it. Who knowsss what is true!
Mais oui, bien sur.John Marwood said:I take it from your avatar you like the frogs legs...

Which is why Admin is a legend - urban or otherwise.Admin said:I have changed the thread title (of one that name-checked GO), to avoid any unfair association of one particular establishment with what seems to be an urban legend, which has been applied to various places over the years.
I was going to say the same.... have à point......scallywag said:We used to go quite often but the prices have risen dramatically lately and quite a lot of containers were left drying out leaving very little choice, so we give it a miss now.
Haven't been for a while but always found weekends best as the rapid turnaround ensured that the containers were usually replenished regularly.scallywag said:We used to go quite often but the prices have risen dramatically lately and quite a lot of containers were left drying out leaving very little choice, so we give it a miss now.
As Trumpet says, we were there on the Saturday night and the container thing wasn't an issue. You are spot on about the prices though, they have risen quite markedly in the past few months.scallywag said:We used to go quite often but the prices have risen dramatically lately and quite a lot of containers were left drying out leaving very little choice, so we give it a miss now.
