Excellent restaurant! In house bakery is probably the most unique feature. The jujube cake 棗泥糕 was quite nice! The auntie that waited our table was extremely friendly. The best service I’ve experienced in Antwerp’s China town. Also very child-friendly. The stir-fried assorted mushrooms with pork 什錦菇炒肉 were absolutely delicious! Complex flavour with a smoky aftertaste. The crispy spicy fish and the roasted duck with orange were also above average. Food was served quite quickly. I have not personally tried this, but the restaurant seems very suitable for customers who come alone, as they offer many “over rice” dishes and noodle dishes.
− The bill was significantly higher than expected. Three rather small dishes with rice, tea and one dessert added up to €85 (enough for 2 persons). There are Chinese restaurants in the same neighbourhood where you can get similar quality and bigger portions for €50~€60. Especially €6 per person for a cup of tea is pushing it a bit imo (even with the free hot water refills). I will definitely visit again one day, but because of the price, maybe...
Read moreAuthentic, Flavorful, and Heartwarming – A Hidden Gem in Antwerp!
We had the pleasure of dining at St. Anna Food / wanli.ktchen 萬里小廚 (formerly 阿里饼店) and were absolutely impressed. If you’re craving real Southeast Asian flavors, this place is a must-visit.
The food was outstanding — flavors were bold yet balanced, with a spice level that’s just right. Every dish we tried had that familiar, comforting taste that brought us straight back to Thailand. It’s rare to find a restaurant overseas that nails the seasoning and harmony of spices so authentically — and they did it with ease.
The service was equally memorable: friendly, family-like, and full of warmth. You immediately feel welcomed, like you’re eating in someone’s home rather than a commercial restaurant.
If you live in Antwerp or are just passing through, you should absolutely come try this place. Whether you're Thai, Asian, or simply a fan of real, soul-satisfying food — this is one spot you don’t want to miss.
Highly...
Read moreI'm Hong Kong Chinese and this st. Anna Antwerpen is NOT the authentic St. Anny bakery. The only real authentic one is the St. Anny Rotterdam Netherlands! As a side note, the St. Anny in Brussels learnt some skills from Rotterdam and opened her own shop in Brussels. You want the real deal, go to St. Anny Rotterdam, this one is the best! Anyway, I ordered a Pineapple bun and the bun dry and old. As if 2 days old, totally not fresh! The yellow crust should be more yellow/orange color. No flavor. The price of 1.80 euro is way too expensive! I will never buy and go there again, I wasted my money. Very very unsatisfied. This shop should close its doors! The owner and so called baker should be ashamed of themselves for selling this rubbish food. They clearly do it for the money. My advice is, you should definitely...
