    It's a Sunday and walked pass the said restaurant and asked politely if they do Dim Sum. The lady…read morecleaning the outside replied not on Sunday but Monday to Friday. Well dim sum is a significant culture for Chinese as a gathering family meal on Sunday (just like a Sunday roast for brits). I didn't bother to go in as it's just not going to be authentic!

    Have you ever been for a posh Chinese? The two words aren't usually synonymous - unfortunately,…read moregoing for a Chinese now involves a trip down a shop that resembles a kebab shop, only with noodles instead. The Good Earth is an old school restaurant - beautifully designed inside, with plenty of large round tables, and my favourite, those round turning slabs on top of the tables which means that that I, err, I mean everyone, can try some of each others dishes. There is a bar to one side where dressed up ladies and gentlemen of Esher discuss property prices and where they are skiing this year (I presume). Inside the main restaurant, I would advise ordering as much as you could possibly fit. The portions are are good size, but the food is considerably more expensive then in your average Chinese, but the price difference is worth it. You will recognise a lot of the dishes, it's just they are done with more flavour and spice than other places (but with no MSG). Look out for plenty of fish dishes that you wouldn't normally find, such as sea bass, Dover sole and monkfish. I wouldn't go out of your way to make room for dessert, as with most Chinese restaurants, the puddings are not a high point. Perhaps have another drink at the bar to finish your meal. Have one for me!
