Kewei's Kitchen is a pop up in the newly-trendy Kødbyen. Not sure how long they will be around in the address, but at least they're in the business now for the next few months.
Their tagline is "Chinese Street Food", but it's more of trendy, upper-class street food if you can call it. The main dishes cost 150 DKK and it's not the usual Chinese restaurant portion, but more of the wide plate with some food in the middle-ish kinda portion.
We went there in a group of five (remember to book the place!) on Sunday evening and wanted to just order a couple of dishes to share. They were quick to suggest how to share the dishes and we just agreed on their ideas. We got 5 starters (3 scallops, 2 dumplings) and three main dishes (no chicken since I don't eat any) and I could say that the star of the show was definitely the twice-cooked pork. They were delicious. The watercress and the aubergine were super good as well, but the water-poached sea bass was just okay.
Some in our group tried the dessert, the Chinese dessert soup that I didn't try but the red bean ice cream was excellent.
The bill came at 1295DKK for five of us. Okay, but definitely above the usual Chinese dining fare. If you just want to eat Chinese food, I'd suggest going some other places (on my list), but if you want to impress your date, this is the place to go. read more
