The Chinese Sisters

Better than any Chinese restaurant in Hamilton.
Somewhere between the line of Americanized Chinese and authentic Chinese. Excellent flavours. Reasonable prices.

No online menu... but the lady I spoke to on the phone was very patient and helpful.

And then she was even more polite and helpful when I arrived at the restaurant.

Good people, good food. My meal was made quickly. I'm giving this a gold star.

Loved the flat iron beef done up spicy today with veggies. Very tasty.

It used to be a 5 star when it first started. We ordered something and later found out it wasn't ordered at all, even though that me and my mother had repeatedly mentioned we want two of the number 3 items at least 8 times. The serving speed is plenty fast, the choices has gone up by quite a bit, so as the price, not so much about the amount of food I'm getting, and the taste is quite blend for the price. It's now a proper restaurant, but I rather have it to go back to its early state.

here are couple recommendations to the cook back there, I am a cook myself, so I think my opinion would matter a bit.

First thing first, the portion of the course is a bit too small, I know you are trying to make it pretty, but it still should be enough for an average adult to eat, my place's special (only happens couple times a week since we are a b&g) serves more than what you are serving here for much less price.

Second, and I'm only talking about 麻辣香鍋 (translate it yourself people..), the ratio between meat and veggies should've been at least 30/70, where yours is almost 5/95, I could only find 5 pieces of meat, if you can call them meat, in the entire bowl, the rest is 6 or 7 pieces of fungus, and an entire bowl of napa cabbage. I don't think that's how it should be portioned.

Third, we are still talking about the same menu item, the ratio between pepper and zythoxylum is wrong as well, the main feel of this course is numb, and all I tasted was hot. Plus, it doesn't really smell at all, again, that's against its original purpose.

Thanks.

Great food with traditional values. Prices are great and the menus even better. Definitely check this place out if you want something more traditional!

Great authentic and flavourful dishes! We had cravings for shrimps, but unfortunately shrimp was not in the menu. So the owner spoke to the chef and they made us amazing shrimp dishes! Wow!
