Today, I'll reveal a fantastic spot for enjoying exquisite Chinese dishes at budget-friendly prices, bearing the meaningful name San Fu Lou. This article includes specific prices along with accompanying photos.
This San Fu Lou restaurant is highly renowned for its reasonably priced Chinese dishes. If you're a fan of Chinese cuisine, this address is a must-visit! Located in the heart of the city, San Fu Lou boasts captivating decor with traditional Chinese elements like red lanterns, wooden furniture, reminiscent of ancient Chinese films. Enjoying Chinese cuisine while watching bustling traffic adds to the charm of the experience!
Today, our entire group decided to have lunch during peak hours, so the restaurant was quite crowded. However, the number of staff was abundant, ensuring efficient service. Upon arrival, the staff handed us menus along with an order sheet for us to jot down our desired quantities and dishes.
After making the call, within 5 to 10 minutes, the first dish arrived promptly, followed by the rest served consecutively within 2 to 3 minutes each. While waiting, we ordered a fragrant jasmine tea pot with a few ice-filled glasses. One pot filled five glasses generously, leaving plenty for more!
And here's our feast table, entirely filled with delicious dishes.
San Fu Lou's Shanghai-style Steamed Buns - the shining star of today's gathering (also my personal favorite). Besides its stunning appearance, the filling is incredibly delectable! The meat is tender and fragrant, and when you take a bite, the sauce inside flows out, rich in flavor with a distinctive aroma, utterly delightful...
Black Vinegar and Chili Oil Shrimp and Pork Wontons
Mapo Tofu, Spicy Minced Meat Sauce served with White Rice - The tofu is exceptionally tender, and the seasoning is just right. It holds together well when picked up, and the sauce is perfectly balanced with plenty of meat.
San Fu Lou's Assorted Roasted Meats Platter includes roasted duck, roasted chicken, and barbecued pork. It's decent; the meat is quite tender, marinated with meticulous Chinese flavors, giving off a distinctive aroma.
Salty Fish and Chicken Fried Rice - I'll pass on this one, it's too meaty for me! But my friends who had it said it's delicious! If you ever visit San Fu Lou, give it a try and see for yourself ^^
Salted Egg Custard Bun, back in Hanoi, whenever I went to King Long, I'd always order this dish, so today I tried it here to compare. It's just as delicious as the one back home!
Crispy Fried Tofu Rolls with Shrimp and Meat The outer crispy layer is beautifully golden, not dry at all, while the filling inside is soft and flavorful. And let me tell you, the sauce is absolutely delicious, truly a match made in heaven!
Fresh Shrimp and Scallop Dumplings There's one girl in our group who's crazy about scallops, so when she tried this, she couldn't stop praising it! Take a closer look and you'll see the scallop piece on top is thick and large!
Top-notch Shrimp Sauce Steamed Rice Rolls At this point, I have to retreat! I really can't handle any more food! Eating this might as well call for an ambulance!
After the meal, each person is gifted a lucky bun like in the picture. And guess what? There's a very interesting wish written inside:
What a feast today! We indulged in so many delicious dishes, and yet, when it came time to pay, the bill was only a little over 870k VND!
After the meal, we strolled around taking some trendy photos. That's when we realized that not only were the staff plentiful, but the kitchen team was also bustling downstairs! Check out the photo below:
Honestly, there's nothing to complain about. I have to give a shoutout to the staff at San Fu Lou, they're incredibly attentive and friendly! They greet guests warmly, pull out chairs, and serve like VIPs.
Overall, the food, the ambiance, and the prices are all very reasonable. I didn't feel annoyed or have any complaints! I'll definitely be coming back many more times!!!
