Hui Kee Hot Pot City - Business Reviews

A time-honored hot pot restaurant featuring snakes in Panyu Shiqiao, Guangzhou. Surprisingly, Hui Kee is actually the predecessor of the famous Licheng cuisine, which has been in business for nearly 30 years and is the oldest snake hot pot restaurant in Guangzhou. After experiencing the era of popular draft snakes, the boss Brother Hui has mastered almost all the skills of cooking snakes, and in terms of technology, he has changed the production method of "tearing snake bones by hand", and developed a new method of "knife bones", which greatly shortens the processing time of 5 minutes for each snake and increases the speed by 10 times, creating a precedent for peers. In fact, there are many places to eat snakes in Panyu, but there are really few restaurants that sell snakes like "wholesale" like Hui Ji, and there are more than a dozen kinds of snakes here, from cheap water snakes to expensive mountain peaks. In autumn and winter, snake hot pot is a must-order dish when entering the store, mainly with banyan snake, chicken and water fish cooked in the broth, the chicken meat is tender and elastic with a bite, rather than dry and coarse old, and the pot has both chicken flavor and snake freshness. The snake meat is smooth and springy, with a very textured texture, and the delicious realm of eating in the mouth is not comparable to ordinary meat. The sweet soup can be used for noodles or rice, and it is also very delicious. If it is eaten with fermented bean curd, hot sauce and shredded ginger, it can enhance the taste even more, and it is worth recommending. Similarly, snake blood fried rice is one of the restaurant's recommended dishes, which is made with fresh snake blood and white rice, and has a thicker texture but a slightly fishy taste. Hui Kee's façade looks unremarkable, the dining environment is a bit poor, and the store does not provide menus, and all the dishes are posted on the wall for customers to order. If it is the first time to the store, the clerk will give some suggestions for ordering, and the service attitude is very good. Although Hui Kee's environment is really at the level of food stalls, its production level is definitely not inferior to other snake banquet restaurants, and the price is also economical. Note that during the less popular summer months, reservations are almost unnecessary; However, in autumn and winter, the store is always bustling with customers, so it is recommended to book a table in advance.
