What We Serve
We are known for our signature roast duck, which we prepare and roast in-house daily using traditional methods. The skin is crispy and golden, the meat is tender and full of flavour. You can order it as a portion, half or whole, and we also offer a Peking crispy duck served two ways for a more complete experience.
Beyond the duck, we are proud to be the only restaurant in London serving authentic Guilin rice noodles. This southern Chinese specialty comes in a rich broth with your choice of pork and beef, braised beef, braised chicken or a vegetarian option. It is a dish you genuinely will not find anywhere else in the city.
Our all-day dim sum menu features handmade Shanghai soup dumplings, crystal shrimp har gaw, pan-fried guo tie, cheung fan, steamed buns and much more. For something heartier, we have a full range of claypot dishes, stir-fries, seafood and noodle options. Vegetarian diners will also find plenty of choice across the menu.
We serve breakfast from 8am with congee, youtiao, wonton soups and breakfast sets, so whether you are an early riser or a late luncher, there is something here for you.
