Along one busy street in Swansea, there has been a restaurant name which has been on display for around two decades. The only problem is, it has been closed for more than half of that time. Rendezvous in Princess Way was a once popular place where people would dine out and enjoy an infusion of Mediterranean and Oriental cuisine.
It was regarded by many at the time as one of the city's premier Chinese restaurants, whilst other reviews on TripAdvisor dating back to 2012 described it as "our favourite restaurant in Swansea." It was popular for family and birthday meals, along with office meals out, and would have a pianist playing there on Saturday nights.
But the red-bricked Swansea Council-owned building closed suddenly years ago. You can read a review of what we thought about the food there 11 years ago by clicking here. Despite being empty ever since, it has still not been replaced, with its bright blue signage fully on display to this day, just like it was on its final day of trading, with a padlock on the door and boarded up window panes.
