Yipin China is a regional Chinese restaurant at 70–72 Liverpool Road in Islington. Its extensive menu places the earthy heat of Hunan and the numbing spice of Sichuan beside Cantonese and northern Chinese dishes, giving diners a broad view of cooking traditions beyond familiar takeaway standards.
Cold plates, dumplings, wontons in red oil and soups offer several ways to begin. Chilli, preserved vegetables, garlic, sesame and vinegar create layered flavours rather than simple heat, while milder seafood and vegetable dishes allow a shared table to balance the most intense choices.
Twice cooked pork belly, Chairman Mao style braised pork, fish in chilli broth and stir fried meat with pickled vegetables show the kitchen’s confident regional character. Tofu, aubergine, greens and mushrooms receive equally bold sauces, making vegetable dishes an important part of the feast.
Dan dan noodles, hot dry noodles, rice and noodle soups complete the selection and help absorb the richness of larger plates. Generous portions encourage sharing, while reservations, takeaway and delivery give Islington diners several ways to explore the menu at lunch or dinner.
