Any of their szuchuan dishes are a great option. I’ve had their szuchuan pork belly which was delicious and the pork intestines. Both meats were very tender and easy to chew, flavorsome and a good portion size.
8.5/10
I’ve also had a tofu vegetable stir fry which was decent. No wow factor, the tofu was soft and there was a satisfactory amount of it compared to the vegetables.
7/10
(Also recommend mao’s braised pork belly! there’s one with rice and the pork belly is still such a generous portion-so worth! The pork is pretty delicious, best right there and then, and it also has pickled vegetables on the bottom of the dish, such a yummy accompaniment!)
Edit 26/4
Decided to opt out of my comfort zone today and ordering something different from my usual choices of pork belly!
Ordered the sliced lamb hot pot with Chinese medicinal herbs and it was definitely a goodie. The lamb was tender and soft to chew, and the tofu was a perfect solidness-not too firm but not fall apart soft either, and stayed well intact when I picked it up with my chopsticks. Other accompanies bits were bok Choy which were a little tough and two pieces were very dry (at the top), a few sweet Chinese dates (yummy not dry!), and bamboo shoot pieces throughout. They were a nice addition, but the flavor of the soup really carried the meal through. The soup was full of flavor and really well paired with lamb, it was sweet yet ever so slightly tinged with a hint of the distinct traditional medicinal herb flavor-dare I say bitter? Definitely worth trying if you’re a fan of lamb hot pot. The meal was a generous portion for the price and definitely worth. It could’ve been separated into two meals but I was greedy and ate it all. 4.5/5
My friend got the kimchi pork hot pot, and let me try a bit-the kimchi flavor was slightly spicy and sour, a delicious awakening for the taste buds, however the pork had a ‘strong pork taste’ and was a bit tougher than I was expecting (more so than the lamb) and did not hold my attention as much. Still delicious, but if the pork was more tender I would’ve rated higher. 3.5/5
Eggplant with mince and salty fish is also a decent one!
Love this place ! Staff are always friendly, food is a great price with huge portions and something for everybody. Always busy in here and its easy to see why once you've been for yourself. Love trying something new everytime we visit and haven't been disappointed yet.
Only come to Dunedin once or twice a year, chopstick 101 is definitely something I don’t want to miss. Had streamed pork belly and preserved vege on rice. The pork was really nice and did not have the nasty pork smell I sometimes get when I eat out. Tried their bbq on rice, tofu with pork belly and Taiwanese fried chicken. Have not tried like sweet and sour pork or chicken cashew, so can’t comment on those kiwi-popular dishes. But if you are looking for some authentic Chinese food, here is a good choice.
