I've visited the branch before when they were along Shaftesbury Avenue, usually for a late dinner if I'm still hungry after an event! I like Young Cheng because their food is simple and non-fussy, and of course good value for money!
I usually order the soup noodles with wonton or roasted duck - or sometimes duck AND wanton if I'm feeling extra greedy...
Like most places in Chinatown don't expect super polite service - but as long as the food is good and cheap I don't think many would mind :p
There's lots to choose from the menu, so you'll kind of be spoilt for choice.
I'd recommend a visit :)
The strapline for my blog is ‘finding the best places to splash your cash’. You may think that that means I only go to fine-dining restaurants and hotels with Michelin stars or celebrity chefs. While it’s true that I do get to experience a lot of these places, I also love finding those that are not so well known but provide amazing food at affordable prices. One such place recently was Yeung Cheng, recommended by a fellow foodie we came here after a night wine-tasting in Soho. It’s not the most glamorous of settings, in fact it is pretty ordinary looking but the food is what makes people from all walks of life fill up this restaurant.
We had a quick pre cinema meal at the Young Cheng. The atmosphere was typical of this type of place, full of fast talking waiters ( fast talking to each other in their own language that is ), and tables covered in paper tablecloths. I don't mind as long as the food is good. And good it was. A proper WonTon soup and half of a crispy aromatic duck with pancakes and veggies was all that we wanted. It tasted fresh, crispy, and full of flavour. What more do you need ?
