Straight up London style Chinese, featuring all the old classics like sweet and sour, chow mein, pork dumplings, kung pao, and chinese greens. Uncle Winkle himself will likely be cooking it up for you behind the counter with a smile. Great for a cheap takeaway if you’re around Goldsmiths. Got me through a couple of nights studying or laughing with friends. I especially recommend the oily goodness of Yeung Chow fried rice. £4.50 for a large is pretty good, especially on a student budget, and many mains are under £5. In fact, I think the most expensive thing on the menu was under £10 and that was roast duck! P. S. Even if you ask for something extra spicy, it will only be mild. P. P. S. You can get an order of cold lychee for dessert. Nom.

Decent chinese take-away when lazy. The owner is super nice and likes to give freebies. The quality of food is alright but lots of room for improvement. It is however the best chinese in New Cross.

I am not certain whether the man who cooks the food is the(in)famous Uncle Wrinkle though needless to say, this place offered cheap and freshly made food for this backpacker. Honestly, I wanted to come here just because of the name. I expected an amazing story and I got none. I didn’t ask though. I ordered the Kung Pao Tofu which was cooked by a man with a pan and a fire in front of me. The sauce was very very salty(MSG, anyone?) though I am not certain whether it was MSG. The tofu tasted fresh and the food was otherwise alright. The front sign advertises for take away so I presumed that was what this establishment was for. There were tables located inside of the café though. Next time I come to New Cross, I plan to sit down and get my story; and eat Uncle Wrinkle’s food too.

This is a great little take away, pricier than most in the area, but their duck in orange sauce is not to be argued with, seriously! It is annoying that you have to pay about £3 for rice, but you can always make your own at home OR just share a portion with a friend, as they are pretty big. Also, they give you loads of prawn crackers and a little pot of chili sauce to dip if you are taking away, Which you probably will have to as there are three tiny little tables in there(as the photo indicates) and they are generally always full. I am always really boring if I get Chinese and get chow mein or sweet and sour. But this place made me experiment with prawn toasts and the duck. Really yummy, especially if you are student in the area because it is a quick hunger fix you can really rely on, and if you become a regular the owner will love you!

A Chinese takeaway based in the middle of South East London’s New Cross. The food provided here is of varying quality very much depending on the dish. If you’re a lover of sweet and sour chicken the watery sauce served here is probably not for you, however the true order no one should be without of this place is the crispy chilli beef. Pretty standard fair on the whole but the staff are friendly and you often get the odd freebee with your meal. Also a winner if you like you’re takaways to have a curious name!
