Chinese Takeaway · Sheffield
Sichuan cooking is the draw here, and the hotpot is what people come back for — dry hot pot around £10 that easily feeds two, mala broth that regulars call the closest thing to proper Chinese food in Sheffield, plus lamb skewers, tom yum hotpot, fish and duck. Portions are big, rice is free-flowing and drinks come with refills, so hungry children aren't an expensive problem. There's a kids' menu and high chairs, and the staff generally get warm mentions — patient with questions, happy to talk you through the menu, quick to swap a dish that isn't right. Worth knowing: service can drag when it's quiet as well as busy, and dishes don't always match the menu photos, so ask rather than order by picture. The sauce bar with its chilli oils is worth a detour. Food is halal.
A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
