My regular dining companions and I recently enjoyed an evening dining at this restaurant for the first time. The occassion was Chinese New Year so a set menu was on offer for $38.00.

Always up for trying out a new place and the promise of a celebratory Dragon Dance to see in the new year to boot, we arrived and gorged on the most sensational meal of Crab and Corn Soup, an array of dumplings and dim sim followed closely behind by Garlic Prawns, Moreton Bay Bugs, Honey Sesame Beef and Duck in Plum Sauce accompanied perfectly with Special Fried Rice. Not to be outdone the meal was rounded off with Chocolate Mud Cake.

We matched the first courses with Wolf Blass Red Label Chardonnay Pinot Noir Premium Cuvee, the mains with Brown Brothers Crouchen Sauvignon Blanc and the heavenly Mud Cake with the Arrogant Frog Sticky.

For those wanting a quiet place to enjoy a long meal forget it. This place is fast paced and large banquet hall seating, we estimated on the night over 650 people. If you like a no fuss, good value meal for small or large groups then this is the place to be. Volume has not been at the sacrefice of classy, this place has it all, material chair covers and chandeliers.

This is a BYO wine only establishment althouth there is also a full bar. Corkage is $3.00 per person.

We will certainly be back next year for this sensational night out. No one went home hungry thats for sure!!!

Yum Cha is available outside Chinese Year celebrations so we look forward to trying that!!

Approximate cost: $38.00
