Five Fortune Culture Restaurant “Pure Chinese” Cuisine & Culture Downtown London’s Five Fortune Culture Restaurant proprietors, Wenbei (pictured here) and Jie Liang Yin (Jeff) offer a “Pure Chinese” dining experience. Growing up in Yunnan, Wen Bei had great admiration for her grandfather, a medical doctor. He had many things to teach a young girl, but the one lesson that truly stayed with her was the importance of the food we put in our bodies. Under his influence, she learned that balance, quality ingredients and attention to detail are central to planning a good meal. 38 London’s Local Flavour www.londontourism.ca RESTAURANTS

Chinoiserie and other decorative arts and imagery decorate the dining room, giving personal expression to Wenbei and Jie Liang’s former lives in China. MENU HIGHLIGHTS There is a saying in Yunnan, quotes Wenbei: “We will eat anything with four legs except for a table.” The Five Fortune cuisine, as prepared by Jie Liang and interpreted by Wenbei is “Pure Chinese,” Yunnan with Sichuan and Guizhou influences. There is a selection of hot pots, noodle and rice dishes. Crossing Bridge Noodles is a bowl of extremely hot broth and served with a range of ingredients supplied raw to the table, including rice noodles, thinly sliced pork, poultry and fish, leaf vegetables, bean curd, aromatics and cilantro to balance out strong flavours, much like a hot pot. Try the jiggly iced congee and glutinous dia bao (steamed buns). You will never need Sriracha again, once you’ve tasted Wenbei’s homemade, hot and spicy, red pepper dipping oil. She jars it and sells it in the restaurant. An epigram on the menu states, “The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose ...” Recommendations include: • Redolent steamed pineapple rice, the perfect side dish to sooth the heat of spicy offerings; • Spicy and Sour Mama Duck Soup Pot; • Yunnan Beef Noodles.
