Popular Items at China Brasserie

China Brasserie offers an upscale approach to traditional Chinese cuisine, blending Cantonese classics with Szechuan specialities. The menu is refined, focusing on high-quality ingredients and aromatic sauces that cater to both adventurous palates and those seeking familiar comforts.

  • The Crispy Aromatic Duck is a standout choice because it is prepared in the traditional manner, served with steamed pancakes, cucumber, spring onions, and plum sauce.
  • For fans of seafood, the King Prawns with Ginger & Spring Onion is widely chosen for its fresh, delicate flavours and light savoury sauce.
  • The Sweet & Sour Chicken Hong Kong Style is a top recommendation for users who enjoy the classic balance of tangy sauce and crispy, bite-sized chicken pieces.
  • Signature spicy options like the Crispy Shredded Chilli Beef remain popular among diners who prefer a crunchy texture with a sweet and fiery kick.

Budget-Friendly Choices at China Brasserie

While the menu leans toward a premium dining experience, there are several ways to enjoy a meal more affordably by focusing on the rice and noodle bases or the “Small” appetiser portions.

Option TypeWhat to ExpectSmart Choice Example
Value mealsBalanced meals at lower costChicken Fried Rice
Light mealsSmaller portionsChicken & Sweetcorn Soup
Saver dealsBasic combinationsEgg Fried Rice with sauce
Everyday picksPractical and affordablePlain Chow Mein
  • Choosing a large portion of Special Chow Mein is a practical way to have a filling, protein-rich meal in a single dish without needing multiple mains.
  • Selecting Vegetable Spring Rolls provides a cost-effective way to add a crispy starter to your order.
  • Standard rice dishes like Beef Fried Rice are usually the most affordable way to enjoy a substantial and flavourful dinner.

What to Order at China Brasserie Based on Your Needs

The menu is extensive, offering a variety of preparation styles ranging from steamed and healthy to deep-fried and indulgent.

  • For solo meals: A portion of Singapore Rice Noodles provides a complete, spiced experience with a mix of ingredients that works perfectly as a standalone meal.
  • For chicken lovers: The Chicken in Black Bean Sauce is commonly chosen for its rich, fermented bean flavour and tender breast meat.
  • For beef lovers: Hearty options like the Beef with Seasonal Vegetables are preferred by users looking for a savory, nutrient-dense meal.
  • For budget-conscious users: Sticking to items like the Mixed Vegetable Curry or standard noodles helps manage spending while still enjoying the Brasserie’s quality.
  • For quick takeaway: Satay Chicken Skewers are a practical choice for a fast, handheld snack that is rich in peanut-based flavour.
  • If you prefer a spicier or stronger flavour, dishes from the Szechuan section, such as Szechuan Spicy Chicken, may be more suitable for your palate.

What to Know Before Ordering from China Brasserie

Understanding the preparation styles and portioning can help you tailor your order for the best dining experience.

  • Dishes marked “Hong Kong Style” generally involve meat that is lightly battered and fried before being tossed in sauce, whereas other styles may be stir-fried.
  • Set menus for groups often provide significantly better value than ordering several individual mains and side dishes.
  • Customisation is often possible; you can frequently request “extra spicy” or specific vegetable swaps for stir-fry items like Chop Suey.
  • Some signature items, such as Deep Fried Squid with Spicy Salt, are best enjoyed immediately to maintain their light, crispy texture.
  • Availability of certain seafood specials, such as steamed Sea Bass, can vary based on fresh market deliveries.

Is China Brasserie Halal, Vegan, or Vegetarian Friendly?

The menu features a dedicated section for vegetarian dishes, including a wide variety of Tofu and vegetable-based mains.

Alternatives to China Brasserie

If you are looking for a different style of Asian cooking or a more casual dining environment, these alternatives are frequently considered.

  • Wagamama is commonly chosen by users looking for a modern, sit-down Japanese-inspired experience with a focus on ramen.
  • KFC is often preferred for those who want a Western-style fried chicken meal as a quick, familiar alternative.
  • Subway is suitable for users who prefer lighter, customizable sandwiches and fresh salads.
