The Forum House is a Chinese restaurant in Great Shelford, Cambridge. It's a little tricky parking, the first time we went I parked behind it only to find that wasn't public parking! The next time we tried a public car park along Woollards Lane which was full but there was space in a nearby street.

Virginia and I miss the Phoenix a lot, it was a good Chinese restaurant local to us which had nice views over our village green. The Forum House may not be as close, and seeing a street isn't as nice as seeing a green, but the ambience inside is cosy and we liked the food. Being boring we tend to go for a set meal. This saves thinking too hard which we don't want to do on special occasions.

The staff were attentive, one didn't feel rushed. We got our crispy fried duck the highlight (for me) of our Chinese special meals.
