    Singapore Rice Noodle
    Victoria S.

    I have been wanting to try this place for a really long time! There are a lot of great things in the Mills market so I had to check it out. I ordered the Singapore rice noodles and the spring rolls. They have a pretty good portion size here the spring rolls were perfectly crispy and had great flavor. I really enjoyed the dipping sauce as well. The Singapore rice noodles were really good as well and there was a good amount of meat in it. You should definitely check this place out if you haven't already!

    Split the 2 meat rice box with a friend, what a great deal! We tried the crispy pork and roast duck which also came with bok choy and rice. The crispy pork was my fave of the two as the flavor of the duck was a bit off for me and it was tricky to eat in the large chunks. Kai Kai js located inside Mills 50 Market which can get super busy so be prepared to take your food to go if need be.

    Both the roasted pork are pretty good. The duck is just ok, not used to red colored duck. We tried the trio meat rice dish to go.fast service.

    Kai Kai is a great place to go if you like Asian style bbq on rice. We pick two meats which are roasted duck and crispy pork. It's fattier than what I prefer but it is what it is. It still can hit the spot when you crave it. Service is nice and quick. The ambiance is casual and prepare yourself if you come here during rush hours.

    This was so good two of these and you're fully stuffed. The bread is sweet and a little greasy, which honestly isn't usually my thing, however it worked beautifully with the savory of the roast duck. I just wished they stuffed the Bao bun with more of the duck. Still, it's warm, flavorful, and absolutely worth trying.

    Beef chow fun
    Jackie S.

    Was so excited to finally make it over to Mills Market! I had no idea there were multiple Michelin spots in here, and though the inside is on the small side, we were able to snag a table. I'd recommend maybe coming on the early side for better seating! Kai Kai was our main focus for this visit, so we tried a little of everything! Dumpling and soup dumplings were good, but the soup dumplings had great flavor and really stood out! Fried rice was a great staple, and the ribs were well liked by the group. My favorite was the beef chow fun - the flavor was awesome on the beef and noodles! My only note is that for the price point, I'd love to have seen a bit more beef in the entree, but I'd still return just for this dish!

    This stall is in Mills Market so I wasn't too sure about it. Kai Kai has the 3 meat combo and I think that is the best deal so you can try everything. My personal favorites to get is the duck, bbq char siu, and the crispy pork. The roasted duck was good but was a bit on the fattier side. The char siu had good flavor and balance of sweet and savory. The crispy pork was delicious and had that crunchy skin that you would crave. The dish also comes with rice and bok choy. Overall, I would recommend this pale if you are in the mood for duck, char siu, or crispy pork.

    Hands down the tastiest roast duck I've ever had! The seasoning, the crust, and the juiciness are on point. We asked the friendly lady at the counter about the seasoning ingredients in the duck and she laughed at us in a "good try" way . It's understandable that they wouldn't want to reveal their secret recipe. The other proteins were tasty too, but not as memorable as the duck. I really enjoyed their bok choy too. Service was a tiny bit slow, but reasonable for a Friday evening.

    Sooooo good! Came for lunch with my son and it did not disappoint! Although the Mills Market is small the vibe is elite! Everything looks so good but we opted for Kai Kai today... the triple meat platter is incredible and honestly big enough to share... roast pork, crispy pork and duck... with bok choy and rice... I'm drooling! The chow fun was delicious! I'm so full! The food came out piping hot and fast! The staff is super friendly as well. Overall I literally have nothing not incredible to say... just visit and go hungry!

    Bok Choy
    Renee D.

    Always on the hunt for the best char siu when I'm out of town, and TikTok led me to this gem inside a food hall. Kai Kai BBQ came through when I didn't feel like cooking (especially with a 3-hour drive home ahead of us). We ordered a little bit of everything--fried rice, bok choy, shumai, char siu bao--and of course, the main event: a pound and a half of char siu. Let's talk about it...solid 8/10. The char siu had great flavor, nice glaze, and that balance of sweet and savory I look for. Definitely scratched the itch. Everything else was good and rounded out the meal well, but the pork was the star. Food hall vibes keep it casual and quick, perfect for when you want something satisfying without the fuss.

    Friday lunchtime was lit!

    Absolutely love this place. All the foods here an s the almost festival like vibes of the Mills market. Today I got to sample Kai Kai BBQ, and yum! Whent with 2 proteins because its so hard to pick. The crispy pork belly was so amazing! Just the right amount of fat and crisp and cooked to perfection. The soy sauce chicken had a very aromatic seasoning light but flavorful. Even the green stuff was great! It came with 2 sauces not needed but good for a little twist to the flavor, one I think was eel sauce (no eel included and the other one tasted mostly like green onions. There was a hefty portion of delicious fried rice (5$ upcharge )under the protein. The rice had a peanut flavor to it, it was light and aromatic, very delicious. Worth the upcharge?... I'll let you decide. Service was fast and friendly place was packed and things moving fast but the staf was personable and attentive and even popped a joke in our short interaction. Like all the other places in Mills Market, Kai Kai has earned a spot in Orlando's food scene. Now the tough part is deciding what to eat next time because it all looks and is soooo good!

    The duck was absolutely delicious even reheated the next day. This was one of the stalls that we checked out in the Mills market. The best way to go about this is to divide and conquer, send one person to one stall and another to another stall since most of these stalls aren't just grabbing and go. That way you can get your food all at once. I got half a roast duck and my husband got shrimp dumplings and steamed pork buns. He forgot he likes baked pork buns more than steamed so take this with a grain of salt, but he found the steamed ones to be too doughy for his liking. He said the shrimp dumplings were great. I absolutely love the roast duck. It had a great taste and is also the right level of fattiness for me. We brought it home and I ate it the next day and the day after, and it was still delicious reheated. Since it is in Mills market, it might be difficult to find a table and parking can be rough. I suggest parking a couple blocks away and walking and having the back up plan of grabbing the food to go. Or just go on an off hour so you don't have to deal with the crowds. We got lucky when we got there at 11:30 on a Sunday. There was no line, but by the time we left at 12:30 there was a line for this stall.

    BBQ Bao
    Macy W.

    I always have to stop at Kai Kai when I visit Mills Market. They always have a line, and it's for good reason (plus the line always goes quickly!) I am obsessed with the Crispy Pork rice box with Hainan Garlic Rice - it's so fresh, juicy, garlicky, salty, and just the ultimate savory bite every time. Even the bok choy has an amazing flavor. I also tried the Roast Duck (also juicy and flavorful, but beware of bones) and the BBQ Bao (pillowy soft and sweet). The staff is friendly and extremely efficient during a busy lunch or dinner rush. I will be coming back over and over for Kai Kai, both to try new things and to revisit my tried-and-true!

These legends welcomed our whole crew with zero wait like it was just another Tuesday--talk about VIP service. Now let's talk food. First up, the tofu and veggie stir-fry--a glorious mix of crispy tofu cubes with perfectly sautéed broccoli, carrots, and bok choy in a savory brown sauce that hugged every bite like a warm hug from a Chinese grandma. The beef with broccoli? Tender, flavorful, and bathed in rich umami goodness. Honestly, if I could bottle that sauce, I'd put it on everything--maybe even my cereal (don't judge). The Honey Walnut Shrimp was love at first crunch. Perfectly crispy shrimp in a creamy, sweet glaze topped with candied walnuts and nestled on a bed of fresh steamed broccoli. This dish was the Beyoncé of the table--everyone wanted a piece. Those crispy, golden Shrimp Ball Fritters? Imagine a crunchy sea urchin made of joy. Light, airy, and addictive--basically the potato chip of appetizers. The pan-fried dumplings were thick, juicy, and had the perfect crispy sear. No sad, soggy dumplings here. Then came the crispy duck--dark, rich, and bursting with deep roasted flavor. It had that satisfying crunch you want, and the meat melted in your mouth. A must for meat lovers. But the real MVP? Those soup dumplings. Steamy little flavor bombs that explode in your mouth like a culinary fireworks show. Served in their own mini tins like royalty--juicy, delicate, and impossible to eat just one. The table went silent the second they landed. That's how you know it's real. With quick service, huge portions, and a menu that hits every craving from noodles to dumplings to sizzling plates of joy, Peter's Kitchen China Bistro was the unexpected gem we didn't know we needed. Cozy, authentic, and efficient--this place made our group dinner easy, delicious, and downright memorable.

Fried shrimp, dumplings, shumai, ribs, buns, and my absolute favorite, sticky rice.

We also tried a tofu wrap and a chewy shrimp wrap that was 90% wrap and had 2 mini shrimp in it. We also got the bok choy and it was okay. Very oily. The spicy oil was good. The hot tea was good as well. Bathroom was clean. Service was sporadic and the dim sum carts were not coming around nearly enough for how many people were in the dining room. The food was okay- I think if I came back I would order off the menu instead of dim sum. We were there around 1pm on Sunday. It was relatively busy and there were many people in and out of the dining room.

We came here first simply because the cheaper weekday lunch special, but man oh man do the flavors keep me coming back. First off their broths are amazing. You can mix your broths and they are not just flavored water either, you literally get all the herbs and spices poured into your bowl to keep those flavors strong. If you like spice I usually do half curry and half the szechuan broths. They have a bar style to serve the food and the sauces/toppings so no waiting for anything. They even have the noodles on a little track that goes around the seats which is so fun just to grab. In addition to the hot pot menu. They have an extra charge appetizers "extra selections (made when ordered)" menu that contains a hidden gem of this place. The wings!!! All of them are cooked amazingly with a juicy inside but a flavorful crunchy outside. If you do choose this option I would love to give a shout out to the Juicy 2.0 flavor. The last food thing I love about this place is the dessert. They have an ice cream cooler, but not no normal vanilla or chocolate ice cream cups. They have that ice cream selection they you probably remember getting out of an ice cream freezer in the gas station. ice cream sandwiches, those crunchy-on-the-outside popsicle and normal popsicle too. I can always only speak to the staff that received us, but everyone there is very friendly and accommodating. They were happy to explain the various broths and the different menu items especially when it came to the appetizer menu. I said it at the beginning, price-wise this place I'd say is comparable or better. If you are iffy on trying this place as your next hotpot adventure, coming here during the cheaper weekday lunch time is a no brainer with a price that is arguably hard to beat. If you're eating at the normal price, I would still say this place is going to give the best bang for your buck if you are looking for some high quality warm belly feels.
