Hiya Gary was really pleased to meet you at the farmers dog the other week was very kind of you to make the video for Allan wish we could have spent more time chatting love your reviews and I feel honoured to have met you thank you so much Shirl, Josina and of course Allan x
Does anyone else use "Garyisms" at this point? "Let's give it a go", "do I like it? yes I do", "what marks am I gonna give it?", "Quality, Quality, Quality", "wow, wow, wow", "until next time, babye"...Gary fever is rife in our house! 😂
I think this is one of the best Chinese I've ever seen. All dishes looked great, well served and presented. I also like the place. The lunch menu is a bonus too. Thanks a lot Gary, enjoyed watching.
@@GaryEatsIf I ever come to England, will have to try it.Many higher class Chinese restaurants here in the states US, have a secret chinese menu in chinese you can order from.I like Chinese duck, but do few restaurants by me serve the duck any more.Love your reviews. .
I can't believe you reviewed this, I used to work there on the weekends when I was back in school. Even now I still like to go there every now and then when I feel like having western chinese food. They're well known for their massive scollops at dinner service, honestly the biggest ones I've ever seen. I was told a story once that Gordon Ramsey tried to get those same scallops at billingsgate but the supplier didn't let him since blue orchid have been buying from them way before he was around.
Hi Gary. I was born in Romford and when I was courting my wife of 52 years this was our go to restaurant. I still remember chicken and mixed vegetables with fried rice was 10 bob. How times have changed. Haven’t been there since the early 80s . After your great review we have decided to make a long awaited return. 👍
10 bob for the chicken and mixed vegetables is roughly equivalent to AUD$1.00. Gary's 80 quid total price for 3 dishes and one entre is roughly AUD$160.00. Very major inflationary expansion in 44 odd years.
Gary, thank you for inviting me to dinner with you. Mind you, being thousands of miles away, all I could do was salivate. But the important thing was YOU enjoyed it!
Gary. The quality in your review speaks volumes as to why its been around since 1963. Every dish was made with dedication to the cuisine... Absolutely outstanding 9.5/10
Hi again Gary! Another wonderful video that’s keeping me positive whilst I’m in this bloody place, I even tried using one of your catchphrases on one of the night nurses who comes into our private rooms every evening to offer us hot drinks and toast before bed. Anyway, I had just been watching one of your old videos so it was fresh in my mind and so I asked her for a mug of “Rosie Lee” and she legit looked like she was concerned I’d gone delirious or something and wanted to call for help 😅 then when I explained all I meant was Tea, we both laughed together for ages after. Which really brightened up today for me! As you always do, thanks Gary 😊 (Oh and thanks to the Cameraman too 🙂)
This is why your channel is the only one i watch , covers different types of food all different price's and all with the same passion and honest reviews.
Wow! Can’t believe you finally made it to my neck of the woods growing up. Grew up in Romford/Hornchurch, until I moved to LA. Always love a Saturday morning (Pacific time) getting a notification of your latest video dropping. Excellent review, you always deliver! Nice one!
I like how you say 'we are going for a Chinese' like we're literally coming into the restaurant with you 😀 That sizzler was spectacular, the gravy looked delicious and there was loads of it. I like those huge mild flavoured onions Chinese use. Another fantastic review Gary and cameraman, I really enjoyed this one 👍
Gary...you are CLEARLY not feeding the camera man enough!...I noticed that when you sampled that prawn cracker, you took a bite and left the rest on the napkin whilst you went to order your food...when you came back the half a prawn cracker was gone...the half-starved camera man undoubtedly snaffled it the moment your back was turned!!!!
Excellent Chinese restaurant review Gary. I’m getting hungry watching these dishes and can imagine the taste of them. I visit every week a family owned Chinese establishment for lunch and they are so friendly and I love hearing them talking their native language to each other. Keep going to these amazing restaurants to share your experience and favorite food choices.
One of the reasons I love watching you is that where ever I go I eat the same things as I’m scared to try new things in case I don’t enjoy it , I realise now you have to give it a go
You shouldn’t be scared to try new things…life is too short not to try everything. What’s the worst that could happen? You dislike it? Alright then you will never eat that dish again…however if you never try it, you always wonder about the taste-and that’s worse.

Brilliant vlog Garry as always. You and cameraman son never fail to deliver. Your subscribers show how much you are revered. Keep up the brilliant work. Your success is very much deserved.
I’m from Romford, but have moved out to Australia. When I visit family in Romford The Blue Orchid is the place to go for a decent Chinese meal….. excellent unpretentious food and great staff.
Oh my goodness! One of the few times I was actually salivating as I watched you presenting those dishes! I have never tried duck, but that looked amazing! Every one of those dishes was a feast for the eyes. Another triumph for a family-owned, quality establishment! Bravo!😊❤
The visual effects of the various dishes was incredible. The presentation is 50% of the opinion formed. This is a very professional restaurant. One which sees quality food and customer service as a first priority. Unpretentious but perfect.
Good evening Gary and revered cameraman 😁. Sweden calling, 12 points for your excellent work together that brightens and entertains me and my dear wife's evenings 💯💙. Being both relaxing and engaging, each episode brings a moment of peace in troubled times. Thank you for your great work always 🫡✨.
Hi Gary! Chinese cuisine is one of my favourites & I love a good sizzler plate too. This was a little painful to watch as you ordered some of my favourite dishes & I could merely view! 😅 Everything looked incredibly tempting & your descriptions of the flavours was perfect. Blue Orchid are certainly maintaining high quality by the looks of it & it really is hard to top a family run restaurant who take pride in their food. I bet your son was busting to "give it a go" too & put the camera down on this one! ☺️ Not the cheapest meal, but not bad on price for 2 to 3 people. Thought it would be a 9 or 9.5 mark. Absolutely fantastic review as always Gary... Maybe too good, because now I know what I'll be looking at for dinner myself! 😀. Take care & I hope you both enjoy the rest of your weekend. 💙
@@GaryEats Thanks Gary. Definitely a restaurant to try out as a group if possible, so that you can taste a range from the menu. I have a restaurant right near me who do a lovely garlic & honey beef dish with noodles & that is going to have to be my Sunday night treat I think. 😊
The Blue Orchid is my kind of restaurant, family owned with pride and quality dishes. I personally enjoy Chinese food and eat Chinese out twice a month. I wish the Blue Orchid was in my neighborhood. The food all looked outstanding. I think my favorites would be the prawns and the beef. Gary glad to see you do another Chinese restaurant great review. Enjoy the rest of your weekend......Cheers.
That looked like a standard suburban chinese meal from the 1960's and 1970's and something you can still get today in most Aussie suburbs and towns and is just as enjoyable today.Decent food and aimed for the local population giving good value.Good review again Gary and it is not suprising to see that a restaurant that keeps to it's winning formula still in operation 60 years later
I just want to say that I've never come across a food reviewer like you. Noone matches you our Gary. You're the best. I love a good chinese, now I've got the munchies. Lovely duck 🦆 Every dish looked absolutely delicious especially the beef in black pepper. Definitely my type of food. A very enjoyable video indeed. Thank you and your Son for sharing sweet x 😊
Hey Maria, The meal was super, I loved the duck starter, one of my favourites, absolutely delicious 😋 Gary's 200th video, & as usual it didn't disappoint, fantastic! 👏 Always lovely to see your comments on the channel, & I'll catch up with you very...very soon 🥰 x
@@TelThePower You're quackers lol didn't the dishes look delicious . Thank you for your lovely comment dearest Terry. We'll catch up real soon. Have a super evening sweet x x 😊
❤️🧡💛💚💙🩵💜💖💕 Dear Gary and lovely Cameraman! Wow, this is a really wonderful place to eat and enjoy good food. Loved the "cheap-chesp." But its Duck!" Dad-jokes. Can I just say how brilliantly our lovely cameraman is doing? Establishing shots of restaurant, food and menus. Absolutely professional. 🥰👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽I hope he got to feast well too. Lotsa love.
Everything looked absolutely superb Gary and your lovely cameraman gave us some fabulous closeups which had me drooling….I hope he enjoyed his meal as much as you did. God Bless ❤
I said on the your last review (fish n chips in Norwich) Gary that the food didn't look good when it came out - well, today was the polar opposite because it looked so delicious. Probably my favourite cuisine so this was a joy to watch, thank you. Cheers.
Mr Saturday night is back!! £25 for a main course without rice is quite expensive. Prices in and around London are much higher these days than the restaurants you recently featured in Birmingham and other places north of London.
That duck looked good! It's one of those starters that can easily become a main course - and as you say, Gary, it has to be well cooked. Good to see it shredded for the table instead of needing a workout by the customer. All the dishes looked (and sounded) good, but I could really taste that beef sizzler! Great to see four dishes with no dud..... so why only a 9??
As a regular viewer of Gary’s videos, I was definitely rooting for a “clean sweep” when transferring the prawn dishes between plates. Another great video and so happy you got great food after that recent disappointment.
Top drawer quality food Gary with lovely decor. Also seem to be using some "Garyism's" also now. Frequently find myself saying "Let's give it a go" for many things lol! 😂
In my earlier days of being a travelling Salesman I used to stay at the hotel just off the M25 at Brentwood, (I think its a Holiday Inn now) and if there was a few of us staying we wood get a taxi down to the Blue Orchid in Romford. The trouble was, after the food it was a big night out on the pop and a shocking hangover the following day!! Mind you the food was always top notch. Glad you enjoyed it as much I used too!!! 😃
It's a shame RUclips doesn't allow subscribers to heart your replies also Gary! I noticed today you have none on your own channel 😢 You'd have a million by now mate.
Brilliant review as ever Gary! I love how you go to a wide range of restaurants/food establishments and order a nice range of different food from the menu. This place looked great and it seemed a level above your typical good Chinese takeaway. All your dishes looked great. Looking forward to the next review. 👍
Hey Gary! Your reviews are always very comfortable to watch, - thank you for them. I don't know if there are a lot of Austrian restaurants in London, but if there are, you should try them, I think you would really like the food ;). Thank you for ykur videos and greetings from Austria :)!!
Very true, however, we still say Romford, Essex when we address our mail and I always say I’m an Essex boy to other Brits. To non-Brit’s outside the UK I say London.
@@premgoyal4192 I don't know who you're referring to when you say "we" but I know many Romfordians who don't put Essex as part of their address (correctly formatted Romford addresses don't contain Essex), and refer to themselves as Londoners coz that's what they are. As for Essex, to them that's a rural county that's nice to visit for a day out.
Thank you for the nice comment yesterday Gary, I really appreciate it. I don’t subscribe to much people, but I have subscribed to you channel today. I have not been banned yet, hopefully I don’t get banned. Thank you for another great food review.
duck on point, chicken looked succulent with the bbq sauce and the beansprout for chrunch yummy yum yum and that egg fried rice was soooooooooooo fluffy
Food looked lovely. I’ve never known Chicken Chinese Style to have a BBQ sauce though. Steak looked fantastic. Brilliant review, Gary. Keep up with the good work!
Ahh late to the party again Gary! Typical me. Anyway, that food looked delicious and of course your reaction’s filled in the whole story. Everything from the quality the quantity the top notch ingredients the camera work, just everything. Thanks Gary for the usual great videos. 👍
Love your expressiveness Gary, and no, you are not over the top at all. It really helps to get a feel of what you are eating, great descriptions and love when you go somewhere that lights you up with glee. Great review too. Happy munching !😊

Hi Gary. I was born in Romford and when I was courting my wife of 52 years this was our go to restaurant. I still remember chicken and mixed vegetables with fried rice was 10 bob. How times have changed. Haven’t been there since the early 80s . After your great review we have decided to make a long awaited return. 👍
I am so pleased this brought you back some wonderful memories Garry 👍🌹
Just bought a half aromatic duck with pancakes and sauce for £4.49 from Aldi.
@@MichaelCampinAnd I bet it tasted all of its £4.49
born? romford? think its laid,,,,,,
10 bob for the chicken and mixed vegetables is roughly equivalent to AUD$1.00. Gary's 80 quid total price for 3 dishes and one entre is roughly AUD$160.00. Very major inflationary expansion in 44 odd years.
Great review again Gary your honesty and enthusiasm is second to none.That food looks truly amazing hats off to the chefs👏👏👏👏

Mr Saturday night is back!! £25 for a main course without rice is quite expensive. Prices in and around London are much higher these days than the restaurants you recently featured in Birmingham and other places north of London.
Yes it's certainly pricy for a Chinese but then again, it's high quality
@@GaryEats Was is £25 for those 3 main dishes or £25 each? That chicken looks so white and succulent.
I'm always amazed whenever I go up north at the prices of both food and drinks! Totally different to the south.
Exactly what I thought about the beef dish. Twice the price of the other selections.
Duck with hoisin sauce with pancake is such a great combination.
the only problem is divisions the meat etc so get the same amount in each pancake
I agree, lovely combination
Also that it needs to be a minimum of 2 people ordering them
A superb combination along with spring onions xxx

Really appreciate that, it means a lot that you tune in so much... more than you think!
Love how excited you are. I want some because you enjoyed it so much
I really appreciate that, thank you Denise
Only live round the corner, its such a good little family restaurant. Always worth a visit and glad you picked it for a review.
That’s great to hear 👍
Another brilliant review
If it was not 200 miles from where I live, I would be in there tonight
Really appreciate that Graham, thank you
Top drawer quality food Gary with lovely decor.
Also seem to be using some "Garyism's" also now. Frequently find myself saying "Let's give it a go" for many things lol! 😂
That is fantastic to hear, Roger 🤣🤣
Another great video! Terrific quality time with your son and he gets well fed!, a win win for him.
Thank you very much, Stephen
I do enjoy Gary's programmes, such a nice chap.I rarely go out for a meal but thoughly enjoy Gary's reviews Yummmy
Glad you like them! I really appreciate that, Anne.
It's bliss seeing you all animated and giving your connoisseur reviews Gary especially when you really like the food and keep on rocking Sir!
That’s very kind, thank you, Danny
Thank you Gary! Love your channel 👍
You are very welcome and thanks Adrian!
Gary in my hometown. Love a meal at the Blue Orchid. Soo good 👍
Amazing food!
In my earlier days of being a travelling Salesman I used to stay at the hotel just off the M25 at Brentwood, (I think its a Holiday Inn now) and if there was a few of us staying we wood get a taxi down to the Blue Orchid in Romford. The trouble was, after the food it was a big night out on the pop and a shocking hangover the following day!! Mind you the food was always top notch. Glad you enjoyed it as much I used too!!! 😃
You don’t mind the hangover, especially when it’s great food David 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
@@GaryEats I try to avoid the hangover altogether now!! 🥵
I love the banter between you and your son 😂 What a top notch Chinese restaurant! That looked absolutely delicious.
😊 thank you
Your view count goes up so quick! You deserve it. Amazing how fast this channels growing. Keep it up!
I really appreciate that, thank you!!
🎉🎉 Congratulations 🎉🎉
200th video in under 14 months!!
Well done & every one superb 👏
I really appreciate that, thank you Tel. You're a star as always and thank you for always having my back
It's a shame RUclips doesn't allow subscribers to heart your replies also Gary!
I noticed today you have none on your own channel 😢
You'd have a million by now mate.
Haha that would be a good feature for RUclips to bring in!
I love the way Gary asks himself a question then answers it. Am I impressed? Yes I'm impressed!
Lol Im a muppet
Chinese food is my favourite. So many varieties of flavours. Always nice to see a proper sit-down Chinese restaurant.
I agree completely Andy hard to find a good one now
*This reminds me of a Richard Pryer joke about a chinese restaurant 😊*
Hahaha
I always have special fried rice as i cannot resist it.
Absolutely delicious Darren 👍🏼
BOSH! Legend!
BOSH!
Brilliant review as ever Gary!
I love how you go to a wide range of restaurants/food establishments and order a nice range of different food from the menu.
This place looked great and it seemed a level above your typical good Chinese takeaway. All your dishes looked great.
Looking forward to the next review. 👍
That’s very kind to say, Scott, I try to show everything that is available on the menu which isn’t always easy
Another top video Gary all of the dishes looked delicious ❤
Thanks so much Andrew!
BOSH!
BOSH!
As always, I gave it a go! Another great review Gary. Definitely putting a list together of where to eat when I visit the UK later on this year.
Give it a go Winston, staff are great too
Hey Gary! Your reviews are always very comfortable to watch, - thank you for them. I don't know if there are a lot of Austrian restaurants in London, but if there are, you should try them, I think you would really like the food ;). Thank you for ykur videos and greetings from Austria :)!!
I will definitely take a look and thank you for watching from Austria 🇦🇹
Hi Gary, just want to let you know that I really enjoyed your review.
Thanks for the great contents as always.👍
That is very kind to say thank you very much, Mick
Everything looked absolutely delicious.🍽️🤤 Once again a fantastic video. Thanks Gary.👍
Thanks so much
Great vid but I have to say that duck looks dry. You naturally lose moisture by shredding it.
Thank you, it was all good. A tiny bit dry but nothing major, still delicious!
Romford was indeed in Essex in 1963, but by April 1965 Romford had been transferred from Essex to London by Act of Parliament.
Indeed, it's under the London tube network
I'd say a 9 out of 10.
Very true, however, we still say Romford, Essex when we address our mail and I always say I’m an Essex boy to other Brits. To non-Brit’s outside the UK I say London.
That’s because there’s so many foreigners .

I don't know who you're referring to when you say "we" but I know many Romfordians who don't put Essex as part of their address (correctly formatted Romford addresses don't contain Essex), and refer to themselves as Londoners coz that's what they are. As for Essex, to them that's a rural county that's nice to visit for a day out.
A succulent Chinese meal
How do you know you have not watched the vlog, it was put on 12 minutes ago and 18 minuets long ????
Thank you for watching Ian
@@geordiejones2obviously you haven't seen the video of the Australian man getting arrested shouting succulent chinese meal. RUclips will help you!
😆😆🦘
Must be from Australia 😅

duck on point, chicken looked succulent with the bbq sauce and the beansprout for chrunch yummy yum yum and that egg fried rice was soooooooooooo fluffy
Food looked lovely. I’ve never known Chicken Chinese Style to have a BBQ sauce though. Steak looked fantastic. Brilliant review, Gary. Keep up with the good work!
Thanks for watching Fiona!
Ahh late to the party again Gary! Typical me. Anyway, that food looked delicious and of course your reaction’s filled in the whole story. Everything from the quality the quantity the top notch ingredients the camera work, just everything. Thanks Gary for the usual great videos. 👍
Thank you very much as always, Philip. I hope you had a wonderful weekend.
Love your expressiveness Gary, and no, you are not over the top at all. It really helps to get a feel of what you are eating, great descriptions and love when you go somewhere that lights you up with glee.
