About Yangcheng Restaurant

Yangcheng dishes out unapologetic, home-style Hunan cooking packed with pungent pickled chilli, garlic, and fierce wok heat. Loyalists make the trek for authentic Xiang fare—specifically the steamed fish head blanketed in pickled chilli paste and the dark, nutty crunch of lotus root stir-fried with pickled cowpeas. The room is tiny and built for small tables of two to four rather than big banquets, running with the unhurried warmth of a family kitchen. Midday regulars lean on quick, affordable rice sets paired with soup, while evening diners linger over savoury braised pork noodles and custom spice levels from the wok.

  • Signature Hunan Heat: Specializes in pungent regional staples like steamed fish head with pickled chilli and chili-stirred offal over mild banquet fare.
  • Cozy Neighborhood Footprint: An intimate, small-table dining room best suited for parties under five rather than large group banquets.
  • Customized Wok Cooking: The kitchen adapts dishes to vegan preferences and customizes spice intensity on request.

  • Sliced Pork with Green Chilli & Garlic

    Must try is their best selling dish - sliced pork, green chilli & garlic.

  • Lotus Root with Pickled Cowpea

    The lotus root stir fry was DELICIOUS.... the dark caramel used enhanced the nuttiness of the lotus root and made it incredibly moreish! the pickled cowpea added extra salt and a tiny bit of acid.

  • Braised Pork Belly (酱香肉)

    这真的是我吃过最别致最好吃的crispy pork belly（酱香肉），在湘菜里难得的甜口，老板的秘制，里面有用玫瑰酒腌制，外面裹着沙沙的脆感！
