They have since closed. This was weird, I don't know was it because it's takeaway.
Aside from the skewers, we had suan la fen ($7.80), which is like chewy noodles in spicy sour soup. You are to be warned, as the portion given was massive, maybe can feed 3-4 people! Though the noodles were abit too chewy, I really loved the soup. The broth was really thick with meat broth flavours, chilli and vinegar that is really satisfying.
Best drink to go with these dishes is definitely Chinese beer, which was only $5.8 per bottle! Definitely coming back here again.
By far, I think this is one of the most authentic places to get Chinese BBQ and dishes, as the ambience, people and food really did bring me back to the good times I had in China.
We had a variety of skewers, from potato to mushrooms to different meats and they were all really delicious! Most if not all of the skewers were seasoned similarly, using chilli, cumin and pepper spices. The seasoning isn't too salty, and the cumin flavours really come through.
As for vegetable options, one of my favourite is the potato slices, as the potato slices were smoky and had a wonderful crust that reminds me of potato chips. Biting through the crust reveals a creamy center within which is just satisfying.
As for the meats the pork belly skewers were quite tough, the chicken slices were okay but the best were the mutton skewers. Smoky, meaty and yet tender, these mutton pieces did not have any gaminess at all too.
The sweet bread skewers weren't that fantastic, as we expected a certain crust but it was just soft all the way. Perhaps mantou is a better option.
🌟 Mushrooms (in aluminium tray) ($7.80)
Basically mushrooms cooked in a tray of gravy, and I quite enjoyed the good bite from the mushrooms, as well as the flavour of the gravy itself!
油菜 (Vegetables)
NGL we ordered this just to make ourselves feel a bit better ("healthier") because everything else was pretty sinful, but this turned out to be worse than every other dish 😂. Not talking about the flavour, but the amount of oil that was coating every vegetable. Definitely not for those who want something "healthy".
辣子鸡 (Chilli Chicken) ($18.80)
This was a skip for me - I personally prefer the "popcorn chicken" kind which are crispy and flavourful, whereas the meat here was more like a braised chicken type of texture. It was slightly numbing too, which some may like.
