Restaurant HeSheng
An authentic Chinese restaurant on Bree Street, serving the real deal that won't break the bank. HeSheng is a humble, inauspicious-looking hole in the wall run by a friendly Chinese couple and frequented by Chinese expats—always a reliable sign that you have found the right place. As their motto puts it: "We have the best Chinese food this side of the Yangtze."
There is food which some people might call "Chinese food," and then there is actual Chinese food. HeSheng serves only authentic, freshly made dishes. Chef's recommendations change regularly, but the quality remains consistent: proper flavours, proper portions, and proper prices. Customer testimonials confirm it: this Bree Street spot is the real deal.

HeSheng — for the best greens and dumplings.

Ouzeri and Akra Bar
HeSheng — an institution. It changed ownership recently, but all the favourites remain on the menu. Xiao long bao, beef roll, spring onion pancakes, beef shin soup, cucumber salad — sjoh, my mouth is watering.
