Situated right at the heart of Stroud, spacious & contemporary HK House has been serving up crowd-pleasing Chinese food for a decade. The kitchen isn't about to spring any surprises on its customers, but it delivers the goods with an assured touch. The long list of appetisers comes highly recommended (from sesame prawn toasts & barbecue spare ribs), crispy aromatic duck comes with all the requisite accoutrements, including pancakes & plum sauce, while mains could range from faultlessly prepared versions of the classic Cantonese repertoire such as lemon chicken to roast pork Szechuan-style.
