I would not notice this restaurant or given it a try, if my friends had not recommended it. Schezuan kitchen is truly an authentic restaurant, and you really need to appreciate spice to truly enjoy your food here. The food can be hot, but not ever whelming. I tried the emperors chicken, and the special fish dish, and it really brought something new to my spice palette, coupled with plain jasmine rice and chinese vegetables, and a bottle of chinese beer, really brought this meal home. Like the motherland home. It is not expensive, in fact quite value for money, and it is definitely a no nonsense restaurant, it is the food that matters. I would come here again for some whole hearty authentic chinese food.

The La Mian Stall is an institution and long time resident at the the sunday market at Brick Lane…read more To find them, they are near the top of brick lane market, right underneath the underpass, closer to Shoreditch High Street Station than Aldgate East. Sundays only from some time in the morning until 5pm when the market shuts down. What you will find is a little taste of Asia in the best possible way. Hand-stretched flour noodles (la-mian) made right there before your very eyes, boiled, then served in the broth and meat accompaniments of your choosing. I had one with minced pork and 'special sauce' (who doesn't like special sauce?) and it was really good. The noodles were (obviously) really fresh, the broth was decent, and the pork bits salty and flavourful. AND all for about £5 a bowl. They also have chicken, roast pork, chilli tripe, and all kinds of available versions in addtion to some wok-fried items and really tasty dim sum. The only dim sum I tried was char siew bao, and it was legit (£1.50 for two). Plus they have a plastic table-clothed table for a few people (can maybe fit about 8 or so people) and some cheap plastic stools to sit on, so it is one of the few places along the brick lane market where you can actually sit down to eat. So authentic in its practicality and function that it makes me smile. This is also a great stall because you can stare at the guy making noodles, which is a fun show in itself. He's got skills.

** IMPORTANT NOTE: I think these guys go on holidays for 3-4 months at the beginning of the year,…read moreso don't freak out like I did when I kept visiting Brick Lane every Sunday hoping to catch them! Hopefully they'll be back soon :( ** I've been extremely picky about Chinese food since arriving in London, but luckily, this little La Mian stall under the bridge at Brick Lane has got it right! Fresh hand pulled noodles (la mian), swimming in a bowl of broth with your choice of roast duck, chicken, minced pork, and a few other variations. They also serve up other small dim sum items, such as pork buns, shrimp dumplings (har gow), pork dumplings (shiu mai), spring rolls, etc. I've tried their roast chicken leg, which is very good. The broth that they use is a mixture of soy, chicken (possibly beef) bouillon stock powder, plus a few other things. I think the broth could be better, but for the quantity I get, and by London standards - there's not much else to complain about! I've also had their tan tan noodles, which came with 5 or 6 pork shu mai. The shu mai was alright, I don't think they make this, and it was in a spicy peanutty soup. I've had proper tan tan noodles before, and this kind of missed the mark. Tasty in general, yes.. but doesn't really resonate a true bowl of tan tan noodles. i think I'm just gonna stick with normal noodles in a basic broth + meat! As for seating, there's a little table with a few small stools, but good luck getting a seat unless you're on your own! There's also a huge jar of chili oil on the table too, so don't forget to drizzle some over your noodles before taking off. The cost is very reasonable, especially for the quantity that you get. I think it runs you anywhere from £5.50-£7 per bowl, and even though they don't look THAT big - don't let it deceive you, as you will literally have to roll away. In Chinatown, a crappy bowl of noodles will cost you about £6, plus their "discretionary" (translation: mandatory) service charge. However, be prepared to wait for your food! Its awesome watching the noodle man do his thang, but with everyone standing around watching, its hard to figure out where to queue, and if people are even waiting in the queue. I believe this is a 2-man show, and while I get that they are popular and I'm sure they're popping out as many orders as they can - we waited 45 minutes for 4 bowls of noodles, which is a bit ridiculous. I think if they had a 3rd person in there, it would really speed things up. In any case though, if you have a lazy Sunday, get in line :)

Quite possibly the worst Chinese buffet in London. They've somehow managed to make everything on…read morethe buffet taste like cardboard. On the outside this place looks like it represents decent value for money with some enticing prices advertised, however when you go in you find out those prices are only available sometimes. You could almost forgive this place for being a tourist trap except that it's quite out of the way and not the sort of place you'd get a lot of passing footfall. I genuinely don't get how they survive! Perhaps my experience was unique, but I wasn't the only one who felt this way. I went with a group of colleagues and we all agreed the place wasn't very good at all. It really did seem like it didn't matter what dish you chose from the buffet; they all tasted the same. I hope it was a one-off and that the place isn't normally like this, but if you do go there after reading this, you have been warned...

The restaurant is just like a stereotype Chinese restaurant.... very dirty... to be specific the carpet is very greasy that I didn't feel comfortable walking on. Variety of food ...but... they dont serve hot pot meat in the self selection area(you have to order seperately).... got fooled by picking the BBQ type meat(since they serve both hot pot and BBQ all ypu can eat) and the service girl never mentioned a thing until my meat is cooked and I asked her if there's meat for hot pot. What's the point of self serving hot pot if I can't serve myself. And the service staff were not helpful at all. And moreover, worst broth ever... I dont know what they put in those broth but the spicy one way too salty yet the tomato beef one way too sweet. 3 times the amount salt and sugar needed. I normally love hot pot to death but this place failed me epically

Being from Los Angeles, our standard for Chinese foods are pretty high. But this restaurant is…read moresurprisingly authentic. We've ordered 2 take away dishes: Fried Japanese Tofu in Sweet Chili Sauce~ £9.80. The round shaped tofu are lightly fried with very silky and soft center, stir fried with squid, shrimps, imitation crabs, carrots and zucchini in sweet chili sauce. The dish has a little bit of kick from the chili and goes very well with a bowl of steamed rice. Young Chow Fried Rice~ £5.80. This dish was on a bland side and decent sized. This restaurant seemed like a nice place to dine in if we're ever in the area again.
