    Jin Jiang is the kind of authentic Szechuan that is hard to find yet incredibly rewarding. You get…read morea bevy of usual dishes expertly prepared alongside what they call "adventurous dishes" which is the genuine Chinese cuisine which tends to scare off white people. Those adventurous dishes are what make this gem so amazing. Trust me when I say your taste buds will thank you for taking the path less traveled. If you check out the included photo you'll see a wide assortment of flavors on display, from spicy dumplings swimming in delicious hot oil to aromatic spicy crab, which was a surprise hit. Yes, there are spicy dishes a plenty at this place, but you'll also find plates suitable for milder tongues as well. The entire menu is packed with delicious food which will satisfy just about anyone in your group. Indoor dining isn't happening these days, but during my previous visits to Jin Jiang I always found the service to be friendly and attentive while the atmosphere was quite comfortable. Seriously, this is the kind of rare find (outside of your local Chinatown) that I want to support through these tough times because I love restaurants that work hard to expand the Chinese cuisine experience beyond the same boring stuff that has sadly become synonymous with takeaway. Give them a try if you're looking for something different. They just might become your new favorite Chinese.

    Straight up London style Chinese, featuring all the old classics like sweet and sour, chow mein,…read morepork dumplings, kung pao, and chinese greens. Uncle Winkle himself will likely be cooking it up for you behind the counter with a smile. Great for a cheap takeaway if you're around Goldsmiths. Got me through a couple of nights studying or laughing with friends. I especially recommend the oily goodness of Yeung Chow fried rice. £4.50 for a large is pretty good, especially on a student budget, and many mains are under £5. In fact, I think the most expensive thing on the menu was under £10 and that was roast duck! P.S. Even if you ask for something extra spicy, it will only be mild. P.P.S. You can get an order of cold lychee for dessert. Nom.

    This is a great little take away, pricier than most in the area, but their duck in orange sauce is…read morenot to be argued with, seriously! It is annoying that you have to pay about £3 for rice, but you can always make your own at home OR just share a portion with a friend, as they are pretty big. Also, they give you loads of prawn crackers and a little pot of chili sauce to dip if you are taking away, Which you probably will have to as there are three tiny little tables in there (as the photo indicates) and they are generally always full. I am always really boring if I get Chinese and get chow mein or sweet and sour. But this place made me experiment with prawn toasts and the duck. Really yummy, especially if you are student in the area because it is a quick hunger fix you can really rely on, and if you become a regular the owner will love you!

We…read morewalked by this quaint, casual diner after checking out the Cutty Sark ship exhibition in Greenwich, UK and immediately went inside as we inhaled the spices and aromas of the cuisine. We sat at a front table with a large sunny window and enjoyed a large lunch including sweet and sour chicken, tiger prawns with pan fried noodles and vegetables, prawn toast, chicken fried rice and Spring rolls. The only thing you need to be aware of is they only accept cash, so be prepared with £/GBP in hand. We reheated our leftovers the next day and they were almost as good as the day before!

Upon first…read morelook you might think, awesome cheap big portion Asian food; and yeah that's basically all this shop has to offer... Tai Won Mein, directly translates to Big Bowl Noodle, is, as it's named, serve very big portions of food, however, there is absolutely no quality to it, and it's just quite plain... The BBQ Roast Pork and Duck rice was untraditional, serve with gravy rather than the traditional soy sauce, while the Black Bean Beef Hor Fun was just a Fried beef hor fun adding some black bean sauce on top, and to make the matter worst the Hor fun wasn't even seasoned properly while the beef is over cooked. I mean I wasn't expecting a lot, but you can at least try not waste perfectly fine ingredients? I will commend on their portion though, and given the size and the price, you can't really complain too much...

    Went out with family to this restaurant. Food was good, especially the salt and pepper squid,…read moreprobably one of the best places in London for this dish. Another notable dish was their aubergine and tofu hotpot. The dessert "3 color" was also tasty. Service was dodgy, especially when we told them we don't really want a white rice refill (we were a party of 11) but they insisted that they will just give us a "little". Well, they ended up giving us a whole new (HUGE) bowl of white rice even though we were clearly done eating. Ended up charging us an extra £26 for the unwanted white rice (wtf). We ended up just paying it as we didn't want to argue over something so petty in front of family (and they knew it too), but come on! Not cool.

    Some of the items here are pretty good, and others aren't. This is one of the few dim sum…read morerestaurants in the area but it's definitely not the best in London. I'd usually recommend making reservations when it to comes to dim sum but there a ton of tables here and they were only half seated when we came on Sunday afternoon. Customers dining were primarily Asian families and young adults. Out of the everything we tried, the best dishes were the Thai style chicken feet, salt & pepper squid, and the fried cha siu dumplings. Those that weren't so great were the shu mai and shrimp dumplings. Overall, not a terrible place but don't have high expectations. I'd only come back for the convenience and guaranteed table.
