🇨🇳 First Impressions: Vancouver’s New Hunan Spot – Nong Geng JI·Huna
📍 Nong Geng JI·Hunan Cuisine – 4200 No.3 Rd, Richmond Mixed reviews had me skeptical, but Hunan cuisine is rare here, so I gave it a shot. Verdict? Not bad! (Though portions are… cozy.) 🍽️ What We Ordered (Member Prices Shown) 🥩 Stir-Fried Beef ($26.99) Small clay pot, slow-burning heat, gets spicier as you eat. Good w/ rice, but oily. 🥣 Pork & Tofu Soup ($17.99) ★ Unexpected MVP! Mildly spicy, packed with silky tofu, beans, and minced pork. Pro move: Pour it over rice! 🥦 Cauliflower ($16.99) Soft texture, smoky BBQ-ish seasoning—basic but tasty. 🥚 Smashed Chili Eggplant ($12.99) Packed with peppers, eggplant, and century egg, but needed more punch (I like bold flavors!). 💡 Final Thoughts ✔ Solid "home-style" Hunan—nothing fancy, just comfort food. ✔ Free membership = 2 off per dish (~30-40/person). ✔ They’ve improved portions (leftovers now possible!). Skip if: You want huge plates or face-melting spice. Go if: You crave something different from typical Cantonese. #VancouverEats #HunanFood #RichmondBC
