Opening times is 5am to 3pm 6 days a week Just ordered a few fried items for breakfast The fried dough was nice and denseThe spring roll was nice but my missus didn’t like it,it was full of VegesFried pancake was better than expected Egg over the fried bread,didn’t find it matched well,the flavour is not combined but you feel like your eating two separate things There was plenty of people in the morning Might be back to try more Prices are on the cheaper side
In chilli winter saturday Jin weigu is jam packed. There at least one bum on every seat plus other dozen in line at counter. Food is really good and service is excellent
Authentic Chinese breakfast and snacks. A lot of fried dough, fried buns, pancakes.. Delicious.. Order it with your lamb or dumplings soup. Does tend to get crowded on Saturday late mornings.
after a cheap fast lunch? this is the place for you. the taste is alright, u cant say is good, but it s not bad for its value. the lunch box is huge, enough for 2 meals.
Had breakfast here very often, authentic (Tian Jing) northern Chinese street food, so you won get service here! So don’t expect service! Very nice food! But two things Any Chinese can make better than them, the tea leaf eggs, come on, too salty and no flavouring and the fry bread, not crunchy and I just refuse to eat it again.
This place is so full of energy, the hustle/bustle, the more than occasional shouts between the front end staff and the kitchen, the Q, the customers’ jostling. They seem to follow a strict pay first policy, which is understandable considering the quite frenetic pace in the joint. At 6 am on a weekend morning, mind you.. Being quite clueless about the food on display and the nonchalant but friendly attitude of front staff, ordering became a game of point and nod, let your finger do the talking. Pig’s jelly (blood), soft silky wok tofu with some sauce, garlic/chives chinese ‘pancake’, (minced pork?) half open buns. Pleasantly surprised to learn that we can order off the menu board so came a huge steaming hot noodles in pork bone soup with marinated pork belly, seaweed, bok choy, marinated hard boiled egg and coriander (see pics on my dineline). Give it a go guys!
If you are claustrophobic, anthropophobic, anginophobic, sinophobic, metallophobic or just plain ochlophobic, this place is not for you. For everyone else, you’re in luck! Now that we’ve established your tolerance for elbow-to-elbow steel table seating and conventional Chinese table manners, we can delve right into the authentic flavours and unique food philosophy of Northern China that have pretty much been summed up in the menu shortlist at Jinweigu! The penny pincher options available will stun you in the amount of ways a tenner can be split, and will no doubt ensure your prompt return. It’s a prepay and wait system so be prepared to choose quickly to ensure the line moves efficiently. I splurged and spent $20 but was rewarded with their signature tofu sauce – silken tofu smothered in a slightly savoury vegetarian concoction and drizzled in sesame sauce ($4), a bowl of pork mince wontons ($6), fried sweet bread – not tonsils ($3) and a container of dishes of your choice ($6.50) – fried chicken wings, blood jelly and stir fry tofu. The food was authentic, addictive and flat out awesome. Even the lukewarm blood jelly and tofu didn’t dampen my moods as the flavours were bang on. Yes, the blood jelly was definitely overcooked and I’m not a fan of soy in the mince filling for the wontons, but all these details are forgivable as this is classic Tianjin cuisine that would make my grandma proud. There is also a selection of ‘pies’ which are sweet and savoury fillings encased in a pan fried dough flatbread. Dad’s favourite is the Chives and theirs is a contender for his heart. The shop doesn’t open nights, which is a disappointing discovery I made the hard way. Thankfully they open 6am most days so get in early for a hearty, traditional Chinese breakfast feast. On your way out, grab a freshly ground sweetened soy milk for $1.50!
