Peking Garden — Restaurant in Halle

The decorations inside the restaurant are definitely on point. You know that you are in a Chinese restaurant.

The staff speak Chinese (of course), English, Flemish/Dutch and French.

We ordered the assorted steam & fried dim sum, baked crab claws for starters and Peking Duck, Sezchuan pepper squid/calamari for mains.

If you are looking for an authentic Chinese food, this is not it. The food taste has been “watered down” to cater to European palates. There were barely any spice taste and bland.

The steamed dim sum were good. The fried ones unfortunately were not. The same sauce for both starters which tasted bland.

The baked crab claws were just imitation crab with a bit of the claw attached to it. Didn’t taste good.

The Peking duck was a disaster. Not how a Peking duck is supposed to be served. The wraps were so sticky, the duck was over cooked. The “plum sauce” was at least good.

The batter on the Szechuan pepper calamari was so thick so it was more flour than calamari. No sezchuan pepper taste at all. It’s just black pepper and salt.

What a disappointing...

It’s your typical higher end Chinese restaurant. We enjoyed everything we ordered, but it was in the pricier side. Still, for our family, it was a good meal. We had some drinks, some Szechuan dishes, dumplings, and some noodle dishes. The pics of the food were taken after we had almost finished everything hahaha. Go support your local Asian immigrant eatery! This is a family owned place and the owner provided just English service with conversation. It was a bit odd that I was largely empty when we were there for dinner. We were one of 3 tables only. I feel the portions could have been larger for the prices…but we were happy to eat...

very deceiving place, i was reading the positive reviews for this resto and i gave it a try, i wish i never did it: Horribly decorated, looks like a classical chinese resto where my grandma would go. they should do some renovations. the place is so kitch . the food is overpriced, really bad value for money. the owner is kinda rude when i asked for a separate bill with my coworkers, i will never come back again to this low quality hole. AVOID IT. the piano was played so loud that i couldn t even head what the person next to me...
