ONE of the problems of penning takeaway reviews is that some people actually believe that my entire diet consists solely of pies and kebabs.

Okay, I admit that I am particularly partial to a kebab – and what northern chap doesn’t like pies? So maybe it is easy to become stereotyped.

But, contrary to belief, I am also partial to a Chinese. The problem in this area, though, is that quite a lot of such takeaways can be unreliable.

That is never an accusation that can be levelled at Wokstar.

Opposite Ewood Park, the shop is always pretty busy and I know from previous experience that the food is well up there.

So fancying a change I opted for a roast duck with cashew nuts dish with fried rice.

It certainly isn’t the cheapest takeaway you will find and the service isn’t exactly express — but that isn’t a bad thing as the food is cooked fresh.

And when I got it home the dish didn’t disappoint.

The duck was cooked to perfection in a lovely sauce and the cashew nuts go really well in a fried dish.

The rice was also delicious and there was certainly enough to go round.

The Wokstar really is a shining example.
