Nong Gen Ji Nong Geng Ji has opened a new outlet at Great World City, with promotions offering 12% off until November 9 and a fantastic 50% off from November 10 to 12—a great time to dive into their exciting Sichuan menu and try some unique flavors!
We started with two of their new additions. The Braised Beef Brisket with Potatoes was satisfying, with tender, flavorful potatoes and brisket that melts in your mouth. While the beef could have been a touch more tender, the dish still offered plenty of warmth and comfort. The Clay Pot Pork Bone with Tofu featured tofu well-soaked in a savory broth—subtle and enjoyable for those who prefer a lighter flavor.
Among the signature dishes, the Pan-Seared Green Chilies with Century Egg was a treat for spice lovers, bringing a bold kick with every bite. The Big Shrimp with Vermicelli stood out, showcasing fresh, juicy prawns steamed to perfection. The Stir-Fry Smoked Bamboo Shoots brought an aromatic, smoky depth that rounded out the flavors beautifully. For those who enjoy a firmer texture, the Signature Grass Fish with Chili had a satisfying chew and a nice balance of spice.
Some dishes were more delicate in flavor. The Sauerkraut Fish, for instance, had a mild soup base with small bones that may require a bit of extra attention. The Stir-Fried Pork with Abalone was flavorful, leaning slightly toward a saltier taste, which could appeal to those who enjoy bold seasoning.
