I’m a lover of all Asian food so the combination of so many flavours was the ultimate foody experience. The news of your achievements in producing such a collection of courses each one complementing the others has spread nationwide. I had to drive a 300 mile round trip to Cardiff but it was worth every mile just to be able to sample such excellence. I hope Ask Asia management soon begin a programme of expansions.

We've been planning to book for a while following recommendations from friends and our first visit didn't disappoint. The food was beautifully cooked, the staff are very friendly and helpful, and the restaurant has a lovely atmosphere. We had a starter, main and dessert and it was all delicious.
