They have opened for over 10 years! Serving very delicious food famous for their savoury egg pancakes, on this occasion I got the salt and pepper beef noodles takeaway. It was stir fried to perfection and with rich flavour. Only £8.5 for a hot lunchtime option! Highly recommend them. Great customer service from Mr Zhuang and his chef assistant.

***CASH ONLY*** Great little food van serving delicious Jian Bing pancakes. The portion sizes are pretty decent and they'll accommodate your spice tastes (I had mine extra spicy and it didn't disappoint).

Honestly, this might be the best Jiang Bing in the whole of the UK. I've been hunting Jiang Bing everywhere and have also tried all the Jiang Bing spots in London now and none have come close. So so good.

A fantastic food truck situated between Picadiily Gardens and Market Street, just outside Primark. They accept only cash. The food is prepared fresh on order and the portion is huge. I've tried the Spicy Cumin Chicken Fried Rice, Spicy Cumin Chicken Noodles, Salt and Pepper Chicken Fried Rice, Cantonese Chicken Noodles, Slat and Pepper Chicken Jian-Bing. Oh boy, what a pocket friendly place. Literally £7 for a big portion of rice or noodles. You can choose your toppings while making the Jian-Bing. Watch the video below to see how it's made.

Absolutely amazing service as well as the food. Came all the way from Cardiff, as when I was in Manchester last year, it was closed :( (I came on a Wednesday) I've ordered Chicken Chow Mein, medium spicy. It did have a little kick to it ;) So I think next time I'm down there, I'll have to go for the spicier one :D Would recommend 1000%, Polite and friendly staff, Food tastes amazing even after long drive home.

Finally visited this famous street food stall among the Chinese community. The portion of the Chinese pancake is amazing, it can easily fill at least one meal. The price is decent too. Just watch out the spice, it can be a bit too spicy.

Cash only. Got the pork floss jian bing (pancake with egg and toppings) - good deal for a massive portion of food. I saw someone order the chicken pancake wrap and they put a whole bowl of fried chicken into it. The lady making the food was so sweet - you could tell she put so much care and heart in making the food. It's a bit of a wait during busy meal hours but it's absolutely worth it.

This is a fantastic food truck. Some Chinese classics but for me it's all about the jianbing. Beautifully light egg pancakes loaded with a choice of fillings, from Sausage or Chicken through to some great vegetarian options too. Not too expensive however they don't take card payments so you'll need some real cash on you. I had the spicy cumin chicken jianbing and it was so good. Chicken cooked to perfection and a really good level of spice. When I am next in Manchester I will be making a bee line to this place.

Famous Chinese pancake in front of Primark at Market Street. We ordered Chinese pancake (Jian Bing) and panfried flat noodle (烤冷面). Both of them taste well, and the portion is so generous. You know the food is nice and affordable when there is a long queue.

We had our first jianbing today after saying we’ll come here for so long! We had fillings of shredded potatoes, spicy beef and hotdog, with medium spicy. It was so delicious! The portion was big too, very much value for money. We will definitely buy many many times over again when we’re in the city. The boss is also very friendly and chatty, definitely makes you feel welcomed. Highly recommend for anyone in the city and looking for real authentic Chinese food!

We tried many restaurants but their Dumplings are the best. Perfectly cooked and so delicious 😋. The staff over there are so friendly and helpful. We'll visit again soon.

I love this little place and go there every week. They do a vegetarian Jianbing (egg pancake) for £5, its the best £5 lunch in the city centre.
