Chinese · Bristol
A no-frills little Chinese spot in Bristol where the cooking does all the talking — dim sum is the reason to come, with the turnip cake, cheung fun, prawn dumplings and fresh custard buns getting the most love, plus a comforting beef brisket rice noodle soup and properly crispy spring rolls. It's a family-run place and the team explain dishes if you're unsure, which helps with cautious eaters. Worth knowing before you go: it's small, so a pram may be awkward at busy times, and it does get busy. There are high chairs, a kids' menu, vegan choices and a toilet on site. Card payments carry a 10% charge, so bring cash. Drinks can be hit and miss, but you'll eat well for under £20 a head — one parent calls it a "hidden gem".
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.
