The first stop in my Guangzhou trip is at BingSheng Pin Wei at their Tianhe outlet. They have quite a few outlets with their Haiyin branch is listed on the Michelin Guide and the flagship store at Zhujiang New Town. The entire building belongs to them and the levels are filled with private rooms as well as a dining hall.
On the Michelin guide and right next door is Bing Shen Private Kitchen, this outlet caters more to the business crowd. It is perhaps much pricier than Bing Shen Pin Wei. We were on limited budget so we settled for Pin Wei. Which I feel is just as good. As they say, any shop in Guangzhou is good.
We chose to dine at the main dining hall so that we can get a view of the Guangzhou tower.
With just 3 ladies dining, we were very mindful of the amount of food that we can eat. But gluttony does take over and we ordered 4 dishes and a soup in the end.
I was intrigue by this dish, Goose intestines, absolutely savoury and spongy to the bite and was a delight on the palate and what we term in chinese, 好下饭，which loosely translate into perfect when paired with white rice.
Claypot golden croaker was decent, but if you like garlic, this is the dish for you.
The roast platter comprised of a roast goose, crispy and sweet char siu. The crispy char siu I felt was the best out of the 3 meats in the platter.
Soup was comforting but was perfect to get rid of the exhaustion from an early morning flight. If you have space, be sure to other their polo bun that's bigger than my face and seems to be a must order dish here.
Do take note that the preferred payment is wechat pay. Be sure to set up your wechat or Alipay before your trip and get a local sim as you will need it to access China websites to order food.
After a full meal, we walked down to their civil centre to where you can get a better view of the Guangzhou tower. Its a long stretch and you definitely get a good workout after all that food.
