3388 Chinese Takeaway

3388 Chinese Takeaway sits just off the centre of Tain, Scotland's oldest Royal Burgh, chartered in 1066. The compact Easter Ross market town overlooks the southern end of the Dornoch Firth and is closely associated with the Glenmorangie distillery on its northern outskirts. The kitchen serves a Cantonese menu with generous portion sizes; reviewers who knew the takeaway under its original ownership describe it warmly as "one of the backbones of Tain's attractions" and praise the friendly owner and wife for their genuine warmth and accommodation. Dishes typically include sweet-and-sour preparations, fried rice, duck and a full range of Cantonese starters. The kitchen closes on Mondays and is cash-only; pre-ordering by phone is advisable at busy periods.
