Henry's Cantonese Restaurant, Birmingham

Henry's is situated just off the leafy and atmospheric St Paul's Square and the restaurant itself has a pleasant interior with warm lighting and, unsurprisingly, an oriental slant. There is a great variety on the menu - you can take your pick from any of the 100 or so dishes that are on offer. As a taster, however, sizzling sliced duck with a variety of sauces is available at £8. A Sunday buffet is a good idea for those who want to try as much as possible, and costs £10 at lunchtime, £12 for dinner. And if it's awards you look for in a restaurant, this place has received a stamp of approval from Egon Ronay.
