Waist Kee Hotel - Business Reviews

The location of the hotel is very remote, located near the town government of Hualong Town, Panyu District, opened in 1980, and has a history of nearly 40 years. Despite its remote location, diners from Guangzhou still drive long distances to make it for this authentic private dish, and visitors are rarely disappointed. The owner and chef have not changed for 38 years, and this inheritance, as well as his own efforts, have created a unique advantage that distinguishes Waist Kee from the big hotels. The food at the Waist Kee Hotel is better than the ingredients. The proprietress Sister Huan has been in charge since she was 35 years old, and until she was in her 70s, she still insisted on going to the market every day to select the freshest ingredients to cook. She was the first woman in Panyu to get a motorcycle license in 1983, and because she was familiar with the boss of the market, she could always get the freshest and best ingredients. Waist Ji insists on making homemade tempeh and grinding lotus root flour to make the most authentic home-style taste. The restaurant has been cooking Reyunzi dishes since the 80s. Liyunzi is the egg laid by the crab, the annual tasting period is ten to twenty days after the sting, there can be a variety of methods, steaming, stewing, stir-frying, it is a rare delicacy. Due to the small output, the difficulty of purchasing and the lack of people who know how to eat, it is difficult to taste Cantonese cuisine in the urban area of Guangzhou. The menu of the waist restaurant is only two pages, and all of them are charged according to the price, which is not very humane, which is also determined by the operation of the small shop. However, most people come to the restaurant to try it, and you can taste the most delicious and simple dishes here. Steamed flower belly with soy sauce, fish intestines with grapefruit peel, steamed lotus root powder, baked eggs with grass worms and dried chicken with oyster sauce are the signature dishes here and the dishes that have received the most praise. The first floor of the hotel is the kitchen, and the second floor is the lobby. The dining table and dishes are not worn, and the environment is generally clean. However, smoking was not stopped by diners in the store, and points were deducted for this. The service is acceptable and the food is served quite quickly. Because it is far away from the city, the restaurant is not only eaten by nearby neighbors or admiring diners, and it is a restaurant that is only known to foodies in Panyu. There are a small number of parking spaces in front of the door, and invoicing by card is supported.
