After trying numerous Asian eateries, where the food and service is lackluster and not worth the money; I decided to try Jenny's Chinese Kitchen, due to the glowing reviews on Tripadvisor.
I'm glad I did.
From the warm smiling greeting from Jenny as soon as I got to the counter was just so welcoming and what I usually expect, but most times don't get from many hospitality outlets. You couldn't have known it was my first visit.
The choices are wide ranging and very good value for money, better than most Asian restaurants around Cairns and shopping centre Asian restaurants.
I ordered the freshly prepared the prawn and beef fried noodles.
The plate that was delivered to my table was humble but fresh and what I anticipated.
The noodle dish was fragrant, flavoursome and light with a nice ratio of vegetables to noodles to meat.
The serving size was adequate although I probably could have had more, as my three year old daughter loved it so much that she kept harrassing me for more of my meal! 😄.
The only thing that disappointed me a little and stopped me from giving a five star rating, was that it could of had a couple more prawns and vegetables.
As it was prawn and beef noodles, I expected about four prawns maximum as opposed to two. Just a few more vegetables would have been nice.
Apart from that I couldn't fault anything. I felt welcome from start to finish; with I assume it was Jenny's husband who was constantly checking to see if everything was alright and taking the time to make sure myself and my daughter felt happy.
I felt like they have been my friends for years.
I will definitely be back to try a few more of the yummy looking dishes on the menu!
Thanks for looking after us Jenny and co. See you soon! 😁
