Uncle Jack's Kitchen - Kurunjang

Dropped by here for lunch today. The ambience was quite nice there weren't many people around and the tables were tidy. Air conditioning was also cold which was refreshing considering the warm weather outside. There were also outdoor tables available.<br/ <br/ Staff were friendly and attentive. I ordered the black pepper beef with fried spaghetti, and an ice lemon tea, which was a lunch special and cost $13.80 in total. Their lunch specials were basically the equivalent of having a free drink, because their regular dishes also cost $13 15. I found that pricing a bit expensive given this is in the suburbs.<br/ <br/ The food came quickly, within 5 minutes. The portion of spaghetti was quite big, and there was enough beef for me but I think it could have had a little more. The black pepper sauce was nice, not too strong. Spaghetti was cooked well, not too soft. Beef was tender and very nice. There was also spring onions, bean sprouts and onions in the dish. The iced lemon tea was a good balance, not too sweet. It was also cold enough.<br/ <br/ Overall it's a pretty nice place, but slightly expensive for the location and what you're getting.<br/

We found another dining gem , Uncle Jack’s Kitchen is a nondescript, rather small restaurant in Wheeler’s Hill Shopping Centre, along Jells Rd. Shows again you should never judge a book by its cover. Their signature dish was steamed barramundi in soy milk with tofu, wombok, enoki mushroom, goji berries red dates. They served this as a soup to start the meal, the soup was <br/ ‘ching’ delicately flavoured, then they deboned the barramundi served that in individual bowls , the fish was fresh, flesh was sweet tender. Goes really well with steamed rice. <br/ Other signature note worthy dishes were ;<br/ Pipi in XO sauce with dough twisters yau char kwai) , the XO black bean sauce was tasty the yau char kwai was crispy , wished there were more of it as it was a nice accompaniment when used to mop up the tasty sauce. <br/ Dongjiang steamed salted free range chicken , my fave comfort food, slightly salted, good texture, accompanied with their home made ginger sauce. To me , white cut chicken ginger scallion sauce is a match made in comfort food heaven. Would go great with a bowl of plain Honky style congee.<br/ Wok tossed green beans with pork Chinese olives. Fresh crunchy green beans in a piquant olive sauce. The Chinese olives give a burst of umami flavour.<br/ Fried curry prawns . Deep fried prawns in shell, subtly flavoured with curry powder resulting in a sweet tasting prawn dish that is not overwhelmed by the curry favour. <br/ For a small restaurant, service was efficient my pet peeve is when dishes are still arriving after I’ve finished my second bowl of rice) friendly I didn’t even have to keep asking for my Chinese tea to be refilled........all in a good dining experience ! I will be back to try other dishes in their very extensive menu !<br/ <br/ <br/

A great local gem! Who would have thought that such a quality Chinese restaurant would be tucked away in Wheelers Hill? We had the barramundi soy milk steamboat and the soup base was amazing! Perfectly balanced and no oil at all used, a perfect winter dish. Great value and excellent quality food. Will definitely be back very soon!

Great place. Interesting to find such a popular restaurant locally in wheelers hill! Great Cantonese food with a variety of drinks such as milk tea.

Uncle Jack 's Kitchen become our family favorite restaurant for dine in and takeaway. Love their food and great variety choice from their menu. If you ask us why we love their food, I definitely say they cook their food with heart from a Master Class chef. Couldn 't stop me to say 'Mmmm....yum! ' for every bite of their food full of Cantonese authentic flavour. We love their Yin Yang fried rice, Salty fish chicken fried rice, Satay beef fried hor fun (our top favorite), a lot more delicious dishes want to mention..... Recently we tried their exotic salt and pepper egg plant, Master class Salt baked free range chicken serve with Ginger spring onion sauce. We have completed our dinner with their Chef special tasty pan fried pumpkin cake with ice cream and strawberries, fried banana fritter ice cream, grass jelly ice cream. Another blessed night.
