Noodle Oodle - bayswater

My friend and I were in bayswater on Saturday and were tired of always going to Nandos. So he finally agreed to eat chinese even though a previous bad experience with chinese food had made him swear off it. This was good news for me because I LOVE asian food. We decided to go to Noodle Oodle because it was halal and I liked the food the last time I went there. I was slightly apprehensive though, because if he didn't like the food, I'd never be able to persuade him to try chinese again and the one time I had eaten there before was after I had been fasting all day. It's always tricky to judge food in that kind of situation, because when you're starving, everything tastes delicious. But I was pretttty sure that the chicken lamien I had had was delicious.
 They have these touch screen tvs at every table with photos of the food, pictures of Gordon Ramsay learning to make lamien noodles, games etc, and a button that apparently calls a waiter when you need to order and when you want the bill. These last two buttons clearly do not work. We waited for a while for the waitress to come but she continued to clean tables till I caught her eye and called her over. The same thing happened when we tried to use the screen to call for the bill but we hadn't expected it to work that time anyway. It's a shame really because it seems such a good idea.
Well this time, we ordered roast chicken, lamb shashlick (which for some weird reason is charged by the stick even though there's a 4 stick minimum) egg fried rice and pepper beef. I have to say the food was delicious. The Chicken was very tender and moist as it looked like it had been soaked in stock or something and it wasn't spiced so we could taste all the lovely chickeny flavour. The shashlick was my favourite. Perfectly seasoned, slightly peppery and skewered with peppers, onions and sweet cherry tomatoes. The pepper beef was well cooked and tasty and the egg fried rice was a generous portion with peas in it too.
It would be nice if they decorated the restaurant a bit more and if the waiting staff was a little more aware of its customers, but the food was so good I didn't really care. Best thing was that my friend liked it so much that he said he wished we'd starting eating here earlier.
