A no-frills, cash-only hidden gem on Brick Lane serving up generous portions of flavor-packed Northern Chinese takeaway classics.
Ordering Strategy
Portions are generous, making it perfect for sharing. Grab a few dishes to go and eat them while walking down Brick Lane, as seating inside is very limited.
What to order
Salt and Pepper Chips
A 'gastronomic gift' from the Chinese-Scouse community, these chips are deep-fried, stir-fried, and soaked in chilli oil, featuring dried Sichuan chillies, white onion, pepper, and shredded carrot.
Sweet and Sour Deep-Fried Pork Strips
Incredibly crispy and rich in flavor, managing to stay crunchy even when coated in sauce.
Spicy Dry Pot
An authentic, intensely flavorful option—just ensure you can handle the heavy dose of chillies.
Sweet Sour Pork
Recommended in the Vittles Chinatown guide as a standout order from the menu.

Good to know
Cash or bank transfer only—no credit cards accepted. The restaurant is quite small and wait times can be long during peak hours, so plan accordingly.
