The Tiexiang Temple (TXT) development south of Tianfu 1st Street has a whole bunch of great F&B options, with loads of outdoor seating, and open areas to hang out on weekends, with yurts, and live music – so is well worth checking out.

This GILI’S has been supersized, so plenty of room for big groups

Alongside lots of bistro favourites they serve at the other GILI’S branches; like pastas, salads, steaks and desserts, GILI’S TXT have supersized their brunch menu (available until 3pm) – with lots tasty offerings added from the G’s menu, like shaskshukua, eggs benedict, and much more.

They have also added BIG sharing platters of roast and grilled meats, which come ready with sauces and sides, and are a great way to kick of a big feast. We had the leg of veal, which comes with chimichurri sauce, a creamy mayonnaise, fries, a dusting of Sichuan spice, and selection of olives, capers, and artichoke hearts, now we’re talking!

This would be a fairly hearty supper for 2 people, or with some extra dishes (we added the truffle mash, and a salad) and it could feed 4 with no problem. Crack open a nice bottle of red, and that’s Friday sorted.

On top of all this delicious food, the new Gili’s is fully kitted out with a stage where a live band performs regularly during dinner time, and mummy and baby room if you need to feed the little one during lunch, great happy hour deals, and killer customer service – they wouldn’t let us leave without a bone for our pup… and that’s why Gili’s is so hard not to love. Great food, great service, warm vibes – and now more space, so you can always get a table.
