PIN’ Kitchen - Authentic Chinese Food — Restaurant in Freiburg im Breisgau

I used to really like this restaurant, because the foods here are really good and they really serve big portions of meals. Although i must really say, their meals are quite oily. And they should really consider improving the cleanliness of the restaurant. 👎🏼 and most of all the attitude of the staff towards customers. I went here to dine in with my 9-month old baby and my friend. We went there around 2:10 in the afternoon and we were aware that they close at 3pm. The old woman there (who i assumed the owner since she acts like an owner) was so impolite and unprofessional. We kept on calling her, because we wanted to ask her if there is a baby high- chair available and we wanted to ask for the utensils, but she was not minding us, maybe because she’s using earphones while working. I cannot express more of my disappointment to this woman. I really like this restaurant, but then after our experience with this old woman, i don’t think i will consider going back again here. It’s as if she doesn’t want customers coming to their restaurant. Weird. But i must also say the rest of the staff there were atleast nice,...

I had this place on my list for a long time as pictures show they do also traditional dishes that are hard to come by in Germany. Mainly I was excited because of two noodle dishes that I was so looking forward to.

Unfortunately when ordering I was told that they took these dishes off the menu because the respective chef went into retirement. I was disappointed and quickly choose a few other dishes, a bit in a hurry.

We had the pork belly in a reddish soy kinda sauce, which was good and soft. Since we were only two people the fat became a bit challenging after a while.

We had the sour spicy bamboo shoot as well. Which was nicely crunchy, with a zesty touch. Quite oily though.

And the Kung Pao/Gongbao chicken which was my favorite of the the, oily too but really nice.

I left a bit indifferent, which was more related to the end-of-life of those noodle dishes than to the actual food that we had. I might come back to try more and make more conscious decisions about the dishes.

Service war efficient and friendly enough, ambience is nothing to rave about. Functional and takes full usage of the...

I visited this place more than 15 times in the last two months. I love Asian cuisine, but it’s pretty difficult to find a good place.

This one is 10 out of 10 compatible with my tastes.

The interior is pretty basic, and there’s no internet here (I didn’t actually ask, but you can go to the neighboring DIY Ramen and scan their Wi-Fi code, which works perfectly in PIN’s).

But! You’ll find a lot of people from Asian countries here, and that’s the best recommendation.

Be aware of the huge portions — after lunch, I’m not hungry until breakfast. By the way, you can take whatever you didn’t finish with you. Don't order two dishes for one person! And it's wise to order only one dish for two persons if they are not very hungry.

I like 98% of the dishes here (except a couple of dishes with garlic which I don't eat). It’s very difficult to pick a favorite. I love the “Mapo Tofu,” “Shrimps on Salt” (they’re not as salty as the name suggests), all kinds of beef, the fried lotus roots and a lot others.

So delicious! I’m going again tomorrow — writing this has...
