  “A Hidden Gem for 铁锅炖 (Tiě Guō Dùn) Lovers in London. I’ve been back to this spot many times, and their chicken casserole stew always hits the mark. The chicken is melt-in-your-mouth and fall-off-the-bone tender, simmered in a rich sauce with just a subtle but satisfying kick of spice. Fluffy potato cubes soak up the flavor without falling apart, and that soy-sauce based sauce is simple, bold, and totally addictive. Let it simmer longer for extra depth, but honestly, just ladle it over steamed rice and it’s pure comfort. My go-to spot for authentic Northeastern iron pot stew(铁锅炖) in London!”

  “Such a great find in London. As a claypot lover, I was very happy here. We ordered the Northeastern pickled cabbage claypot and the portion was huge — so much meat that two of us couldn’t finish it. Super comforting and flavourful. I’ve heard the beef triple claypot is also very good, will try next time. Drinks were surprisingly nice too. The one with the little duck on top was cute and refreshing, and the taro drink was really smooth.”

  “Absolutely obsessed with 二舅姥爷 on Brick Lane! Their £19.9 Beef Trio Hotpot is huge and insanely good. The broth comes boiling hot and fragrant, with tender beef, jiggly tendon and flavour-packed tripe. Don’t miss the buns cooked right in the pot—they soak up the soup and burst with juice. Sides are great too: super crispy sweet-sour pork, comforting Northeastern rice bowl, and addictive chicken strips. Portions are massive, service is friendly, and the whole experience feels like true Northeastern comfort food. One of the best value meals I’ve had in East London!”

  “I enjoyed the food and service here but I’d love to come back with a larger group to try more dishes, especially since the casserole comfortably serves 3 to 4 people. Between the two of us, we got the stir fried beef casserole and added the lotus slices and pickled cabbage as extra. We also got the tofu skin and enoki mushroom dish which cut through some of the spiciness of the casserole. One area for improvement would be the rice as it wasn’t fluffy or perfectly cooked and ended up quite dry. The service was warm and friendly and the waitress helpfully walked us through the menu with her recommendations.”

  “Absolutely gem restaurant located in Brick lane. Spicy Beef Casserole is a must try, came in massive portion that's enough for 4 ppl to share. the old style fried rice pairs perfectly with it. The double cooked pork with peach offered such a delightful twist, sweet and savoury in every bite! Great services and VERY authentic!”

  “Lovely authentic Chinese food in Bricklane. The doubled cooked sweet and sour pork was perfectly crispy and seasoned. Love the chives fried dumpling. Will definitely recommend the teppanyaki octopus tentacles, it was succulent and had a sweet and savoury gravy to it. And of course, you have to order the signature pot (we picked the spicy beef). Will recommend this shop if you are looking for authentic northeastern China food in London.”

  “If you want authentic Northern East Chinese food, this is a great place to try!! Amazing taste with generous portions and you are guaranteed to have a great time eating delicious food! I especially love their beef stew, with beef brisket so tender that falls off your chopsticks and you can add different ingredients to the pot including dumplings! Their dumplings are a must try and it's handmade. Their sweet and sour pork is also delicious and with peach to balance the taste. Their beef skewers and squid skewers are also yummy! I will definitely come back again!”
