The Emperor is a long established Chinese restaurant on Stonecot Hill in Sutton, offering an extensive menu for dining in, collection and delivery. Its selection covers familiar Cantonese favourites alongside generously seasoned house dishes, making it suitable for both a quick meal and a larger shared dinner. Set menus help groups sample several parts of the kitchen in a balanced order.
Appetisers include prawn toast, vegetable spring rolls, satay chicken, butterfly prawns and seaweed. The house seafood platter gathers pepper wrapped prawns, butterfly prawns and spicy squid, while another mixed platter combines spare ribs, chicken satay and crisp starters. Salt and pepper squid, Emperor spare ribs and mussels in black bean sauce provide strongly flavoured options before the main dishes.
Crispy aromatic duck is served with pancakes, cucumber, spring onion and hoisin sauce for sharing at the table. Chicken, beef and pork can then be ordered in preparations ranging from black bean and ginger sauces to sweet and sour, chilli or cashew combinations. Sizzling platters bring extra heat and aroma, while prawns, squid and fish broaden the selection for seafood diners.
Chow mein, Singapore style noodles and a variety of fried rice dishes work as complete meals or accompaniments to several shared mains. Vegetable and tofu options make it possible to assemble a meat free order, with soups and simple side dishes adding further flexibility. Wine, beer and soft drinks complete the traditional Chinese restaurant experience, while multi course set dinners simplify ordering for couples and groups.
