Quite authentic Sichuan and Dongbei (north-eastern) Chinese foods. I’ve been here four or five times already.
My only complaint was that sometimes we had to wait to be seated quite long and unattended. But I think it’s fine unless you’re super sensitive to this.

I no longer recommend this restaurant. I used to return for the tasty food and reasonable portions, and I accepted that service was minimal. Unfortunately, things have gone downhill. The service remains cold, but now the food is overpriced and the portions have noticeably shrunk. Rice is £3 per person, and even refills are no longer free. We ordered the spicy boiled beef, which cost £19.30. The same dish at a Sichuan restaurant near Moorgate is £15.80 (even with a 12.5% service charge, it’s still better value). Although there’s no service charge here, the food prices feel inflated to compensate. Vegetable dishes now come with half a plate. Overall, the quality just isn’t there anymore to compensate the bad service.

Authentic northen chinese food at My Old Place, a short walk away from Liverpool Street Station.
The portions were huge and all dishes were amazing value for money!
Loved the service so quick, we will definitely be coming back!

My favourite was the aubergine dish, full of flavour!

As true Northeasterners, of course we ordered these dishes:
special cold noodles, sweet and sour pork, and stir-fried potato eggplant and pepper.

Our kid couldn’t wait to dig in.

This place has been around for over ten years, and the taste is just like a school canteen from back in the day.

We ordered quite a lot, but the average per peddrson was only about £30.

Everything is freshly cooked, no pre-made dishes, and it really tastes like home.

They don’t charge service fees, but the service is excellent!

When our kid wanted fried rice, they even made a special version with less salt just for him.
