Dynasty

Dynasty is the small Chinese takeaway on Albert Street in Newton Stewart, a short walk off the Victoria Street main spine that runs through the centre of the Galloway market town. The shop has run for years as a single-family Cantonese takeaway and built up a strong local reputation in a town with only a handful of evening takeaway options.

The menu is the standard British-Cantonese list — chow mein, fried rice and noodle bases, sweet-and-sour, curry, black-bean, satay and Cantonese-style sauces over chicken, beef, pork and king prawn, salt-and-pepper dishes, crispy aromatic duck and a small set-meal section. Portions are described in reviews as generous and the kitchen has a reputation for being willing to adjust orders for fussy eaters. The shop has historically been cash-only with the nearest cashpoint just over the road.
