A new Chinese restaurant called Tang opened recently on Fylde Road. The restaurant offers its own dedicated Karaoke rooms so you can enjoy a Chinese meal whilst listening to your friends sing 'I will survive' without the fear of other people hearing your X Factor audition! According to the restaurant's website: “It doesn’t matter if you are a bad singer here because you are just in the room with your friends.”

Anyone driving down Fylde Road before Christmas 2009 will have seen the rennovation of the old Dr Syntax pub. Whilst its sad to see the disappearance of old pubs in Preston, it's great to see that the buildings are being put to a new use.

One reader of ashtononribble.com (Chinese, no less) has already recommended the food Tang has to offer.

For more details, visit the restaurant's website.
