Chinese Flavour

About Chinese Flavour

Runner up 2026 in “Best Chinese”. When the stainless steel food truck Chinese Flavour closed, regulars shed a tear over not being able to see the owner as much as they did the food. Fret not folks, the brick and mortar outpost is still grilling those fatty lamb skewers with cumin and chilli. The menu has expanded to soups, braises and stirfries, and we particularly enjoyed their version of Yúxiāng qiézi with velvety slivers of fried eggplant.
