Founded in 2016, Chaoxiang Beef Banquet has no special identity background, and even the beef hot pot promotional video shown in the store is not its own content (almost the standard configuration of Shanghai beef hot pot restaurants). With its stable and reliable food performance, Chaoxiang Beef Feast has been affirmed by many diners.
I have to say that the promotion of Shanghai beef hot pot has signs of becoming more and more exaggerated. Diners can see the official statement on the napkin of the Chaoxiang Beef Banquet - "The local farmers in Chaoshan are selected to raise cattle and ship them to Shanghai, and the time from the slaughterhouse to the table is controlled within 5 hours". As mentioned earlier, Chaoshan still relies on a large number of cattle imported from Yunnan-Guichuan, and this argument that the selection of local Chaoshan cattle is really unconvincing. According to the clerk, two batches of beef arrive in the store every day, at 10 a.m. and around 4 p.m. According to the actual business situation, it basically meets the needs of diners for fresh "original taste". But the official so-called "5 hours" is quite a suspicion of excessive performance.
The knife work in the shop is acceptable, and there is nothing to criticize. What is different is that the beef workbench of Chaoxiang Beef Banquet is not displayed to diners in the store, but to the outside. It's not hard to understand that the Chaoxiang Beef Banquet is located in a shopping mall, and the external display can attract more diners, and it can also show confidence in the level of environmental hygiene in one's own home. However, the beef presentation is quite average, and the direction of the meat slices is completely opposite to the usual one. The beef on the table is not labeled, and there is no reminder of the duration of shabu-shabu, which is very unfriendly to new diners of beef hot pot. The service attitude of the clerk also shows the rough style of traditional Chaoshan beef hot pot, which exacerbates the unpleasant experience.
A variety of seasonings are available on the stage for you to choose from, among which the secret sand tea sauce is an excellent partner for beef hot pot. Select a piece of hanging dragon shabu and cook for 8 seconds, dip it in sand tea sauce to eat, the sweet and soft taste is irresistible. The concentration of the secret sand tea sauce is not high, and it is undoubtedly much better than the fragrant sand tea sauce with sixteen beef flavors.
The Fortune Beef Banquet is a "chef's recommendation" dish in the store, which is actually a platter of all types of beef (1 catty in total), and the price of 198 yuan is not expensive. The raw beef balls and beef bone marrow in the store are available in limited quantities every day, so don't miss it.
The environment of the Feizhou International Plaza store is not good, and the attitude of the waiter is relatively rough, but the waiter can always respond quickly to the requests of diners. There is only one private room in the restaurant, and there is no minimum cost, but it is only used to accommodate large diners.
