This was a happy surprise during our long journey in Europe!…read more It is near end of August, and Helsinki is already at chilling 10 degree C at night (I know it's not cold for the locals, but for people from Taiwan and California, it is already cold!) My family was very tired after 2 weeks of traveling in Europe, and we are staying at the very nice apartment hotel Aallonkoti, about 2 minutes away from the restaurant. My mother missed Asian cooking very much, so I decided to give this Chinese restaurant a try when I walked by. The restaurant seems to serve buffet as a dining-in option, but I went for the a la carte option anyways, because that's how Chinese people like to order :p I ordered stir fried green leafy veggies (not the mixed ones), a tofu dish, veggie fried noodles, chicken & corn soup, and lemon chicken with the waitress' recommendation. They came out all very delicious!! The seasoning was just right, not too salty. The veggies were fresh and had a good balance of crisp and moist. And the lemon chicken was super delish!!! The veggie portion in the noodle dish was very generous! Rice was good. Overall, we were all very happy! Despite that we still tried to eat some local Finnish food everyday, we actually ate one meal everyday from here during our stay in Helsinki! Haha XD The waitresses were very friendly. They even offered me hot tea while I waited for my take out order. If you happen to stay around the area and crave for some authentic Chinese dishes, try this place and go for the a la carte :)

Listed on GoogleMaps as a vegetarian Chinese place, this is NOT a vegetarian Chinese place. But it…read moredoes have a separate vegetarian/vegan section of the menu, with about 15 or so items. Main dishes come with rice, so I got the chili tofu pot (€18.90), which comes with rice. It took about 20 mins for the dish to come out. The dish was definitely spicy but super flavourful, cooked with fermented bean paste, Szechuan peppercorns, red chilis, celery, a few small slices of red and green bell peppers, and more, served with a very generous portion of rice. Wonderfully flavoured dish. Coming from Vancouver, we're spoiled for top-notch authentic Chinese, and this really holds up. Highly recommended.

Date of visit: 9/3/2024…read more Not good. We ordered 4 dishes, all terrible. - dan dan noodle: noodle was over cooked. Sauce didn't taste right - wonton in spicy oil: not sure if our order was taken correctly but we got spicy wonton soup. - twice-cooked pork: tasted weird. Pork didn't taste fresh - fried cabbage: another weird tasted dish. I think they put vinegar in the dish. It tasted sourish! Will not recommend!

After reading the reviews I'd decided that this would be my first restaurant experience in…read moreHelsinki! Upon arrival, I noticed that that there were a lot of other single diners who had been placed at the same table. So imagine a table full of people, but no one is talking. Weird. Anyway, the waitress was so nice and sweet! She greeted me in Finnish, but then switched to English when she saw the blank stare on my face. I ordered the combo plate which in California would normally cost about $5 cost the equivalent of $16!!! Crazy, right?! Such was life in Helsinki, super expensive! Anyway, my meal included small, but tasty, portions of sweet an sour chicken, fried prawns, beef and curry chicken. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful! I had a pleasant experience, I would highly recommend it.

Before ordering I was asked what I would like to drink. I replied, "Nothing. I don't want anything…read moreto drink." I was then promptly poured a glass of water which I was charged for. These dishonest surprise charges are unacceptable and completely ridiculous. Customers should not be forced to purchase tap water if they do not want to! This is a trashy and dishonest way to conduct business. New Bamboo Center, you can do better. Helsinki, you must demand better. In slightly related news, I was forced to pay for my take-away box, but only if I didn't want to carry my leftovers home in my pocket, so I guess that extra charge was ultimately my choice.

My colleague (who eats here weekly!) had warned us that much of the food was spicy, and she was very right. I do miss spicy food, having lived in the UK for many years, and traveled extensively in Asia, so this was a delight. Quick and attentive service, and a steady stream of delicious and varied dishes landed on our table to general approval. The super spicy aubergine (eggplant) was a highlight, and required some chinese beer as a cooling counter-point. Lamb, chicken and pork dishes were all excellent, and the sliced cucumber dish was an ideal soothing counter-point to the copious chilli quantities on offer. Several fun and relaxing hours flew past here, and I'll be back for sure.
