5spice is a perhaps the only Chinese joint that is at par with Dynasty, or even better I must say. We'd got the ground floor area which is private in a way & seats 18; ambiance is just perfect. The sad part is they won't book for you in advance.
We started with a lot of starters, recomended ones are: 2 sauce chicken, red pepper chilli prawns, golden fried prawns, chilli chicken.Quantity for starters is average - 8-10 pcs for arnd 220-280 bucks. Fish was fresh. Main course (rice/noodle) quantities are crazy; we ordered 1 Peking rice for 3 which comes with some some normal & crispy fried noodles in red sauce.
All the time we could see people flocking to the desserts corner outside, and the reason was clear as soon as we got our order. Mission impossible, as someone rightly wrote, is a deliciously soft loaf of cake with choco sauce & 2 vanilla scoops besides it. Besides, or as a better option, I would highly recommend Rocky Roads which is choco-icecream topped with a lot of nuts.
