顺记湘菜 Shun Kee Restaurant — Restaurant in Albert-Eden

This restaurant serves tasty food that both my husband and I enjoyed. Hunan food is very spicy but they happily toned it back for my husband, who can't handle too much chilli.

The menu is very porky but I don't like pork so we tried various other options instead. The smelly tofu entree was suitably pungent and came topped with hot chilli. It was too hot for my husband but just right for me so I hoovered it all up.

We also had hot and sour pickled radish, dong 'an chicken and stir fried chicken. All were lovely.

The owner was friendly and interested to know what we thought of the food given we were the only non Asian patrons. The only negative - and it's not a big deal - is that the owner was busy in the kitchen when we arrived and it took quite a while before she noticed us standing at the counter. But we didn't mind too much and would happily eat...

The food tastes fine but the chef is rather rude. Two of us went in for lunch today, I wanted to try their rice noodles which is written on their menu and was told they don’t do them anymore (with an unpleasant attitude), so I said ok I’ll have it with rice instead then, so in total I thought we ordered two rice meals for the two of us obviously. Then after waiting patiently for the whole meal (knowing how they have a notoriously long wait time to bring dishes to the table) only one rice dish came, then I was told oh I thought you only ordered one rice meal. What a lack of basic common sense how two people dining in would only want one meal. And even when we were paying he was blaming me saying I thought you only wanted one meal and not a single tone of apology from him. It’s rather pathetic and just not worth my time. Won’t...

Waited 1 hour 30 minutes for first dish to arrive, which was the smelly tofu (6 small pieces for $12, quite a rip off).

Around 2 hours of waiting our 2 mains came, the portion size was average and there was not a lot of meat, the mains were filled with celery and onions. Rice was $4 a bowl???!!

There was no service to be had, I was told which table I could go to, and I got the cutlery, plates and water myself. Plates and bowls were all chipped.

3 other tables also complained about the wait time but there was no rush, the owner/chef didn’t really care. This place is a overhyped as they were on a TV show which probably has made them delusional in delulu land…

Had to move my car from P120 cause it took so long, very poor experience.

Total cost for 2 was $104, taste was average not...
