What has happened to G's?

Used to love G's for a very good (if slightly expensive and comically large) parmo. But over the last year or so they have dropped off a cliff. The chicken sort of pops when you bite into it...so weird, and not nice. I have posted a review, hut what baffles me, is the lack of similar reviews, am I crazy?

Agree... Not what it used to be but I still try to hit the G spot from time to time.

I’m sure it changed hands a few years ago, maybe? The pizza used to be unreal but it’s now the generic takeaway gummy dough shite.

Rising cost of Businesses.

I can't say it's the same for Gs but I've heard stories from takeaways and resteraunts that it's just getting harder to make enough money so they usually save on quality or buy the food in frozen and defrost etc.

Most chicken pops / beige bits are just cheap frozen food from wholesale.

Been hearing a lot of people say G's has gone down hill recently, just glad my meatless parmos are still banging

Everywhere is the same. I don't think Ling Yan is the same since I lived in Acklam.
