Cantonese Express

Head down Pershore Road in Stirchley and you'll find yourself in one of Birmingham's most reliable Cantonese spots. This is the kind of place where regulars know exactly what they want before they walk in—crispy roast duck, steaming baskets of har gow, char siu bao that actually tastes like something. You're not paying for fancy plating or Instagram-worthy presentation; you're paying for the real thing. The takeaway format means you're getting food that's made to order, not sitting under heat lamps, and the 4.8-star rating from 85 reviews tells you everything about how seriously the kitchen takes its craft.
