Horrible!
Everything about this meal was unpleasant. Too many onions and not enough of the main ingredients. I was expecting a nice generous sprinkling of cashew nuts with the chicken, instead were three half kernels flicked in - very disappointing. I will not be buying again.

Where's the cashews?
This was okay after adding some chilli sauce, but there were only two cashew nuts! We had one each. Won't buy again.

Dreadful
We enjoy the Waitrose Indian meals so thought we'd try the Chinese range. Very disappointing. Would never buy again. Strange taste.

Only for water chestnut fans
Great tasting sauce, but there were more water chestnuts than necessary. And hardly any cashews.

Cashew nuts?
I counted two-and-a-half, but looking at earlier reviews, it looks as if I was lucky. The overall flavour was quite nice, but the meal was watery and there were far too many onions.
