Hunan

If you want to experience authentic Chinese food from the perspective of foreigners, this is a good choice. The small restaurant, with Chinese and Western decoration, feels a bit like a Parisian restaurant. The waiters all speak standard London accents and provide proper Western service. I remember that only the boss spoke Chinese. Compared with the early stir-fried chop suey in Chinatown Chinese restaurants, this is definitely authentic Chinese food. This restaurant is highly respected among foreigners in London. 18-course Chinese food! The meal is eaten bite by bite, a bit like eating Japanese New Year's Eve dinner. There is no menu, except for the main course (you have to ask the waiter for this, but it cannot be guaranteed, it depends on the ingredients of the day) you can eat whatever you like, it is really up to the host. I felt that I was not full at the beginning, and I really couldn't eat it in the end. The only drawback is that we were full on the weekend, the dishes were a bit messy, and the dishes served later were not spicy enough. Of course, foreigners don’t like to eat food that is too hot, and it is common to add ice to noodle soup, so the food may not be hot because of the consideration for foreign customers. Chinese people just want to enjoy the food!

The restaurant serves Hunan cuisine, but it's not very authentic. The dishes are not spicy enough and are considered to be modified. The Chinese menu is very good, but the portions are very small, just like other restaurants in the UK.

This is a Hunan restaurant in London. The name is Hunan. It is located on Pimnick Road in London. It is a little remote, but there are still many diners. In the past, when I went to Hunan on business trips or ate at Hunan restaurants in Beijing, the deepest impression was one word: spicy. But the chef of this restaurant is very creative. The menu changes every day, and many dishes are not spicy. Even the chopped pepper fish head does not feel spicy. Because the ingredients are fresh, it tastes good. The restaurant is not large, and you need to book a seat in advance, but the service here is very good.

I tried a Hunan restaurant while shopping in London. It didn't taste like authentic Hunan cuisine. Hahaha. After all, I don't trust the quality of Chinese restaurants abroad, especially Sichuan and Hunan restaurants. It turned out to be quite good.

HUNAN, the Chinese name is Hunan, but the food is a modified version. It doesn't taste like Sichuan and Hunan cuisine, but more like Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine or Guangdong cuisine, which is also weird...
