I was in the area and I felt like eating something special.
Came into this place and made my enquiries. They had the dish I was looking for! So I ordered a couple take away.
They were 'breaking' for lunch, but they were nice about it and the kitchen said they would make it for me.
So I left a happy chappy.
The taste wasn't bad. Can't say it was the best ever, but as it's not found in many places in Australia, it's a godsend they had it! I'd come back definitely

I come here regularly for yum cha, and for dinner as well. This is one of the best places for yum cha - it's good food at affordable prices, and the crowds in the morning are a reflection of this.

Dinner-wise, the food is awesome! Some of my favourites are pork belly, white bait and salt and pepper squid among the few. Delish!

Approximate cost: $10

We heard that there is a new Yum Cha place and that the food is pricey, but very good.

So, we went there one Sunday afternoon. Was very glad to have gotten a table without booking. After that, disappointment follows. The service was slack. I understand that the place is new and therefore, the staff could be a bit slow trying to adjust to the establishment. However, ignorance is not an excuse if you are trying to establish yourself.

When the food came, it was simply BLAND and UN-fresh. All our dumplings was luke-warm. I kept breaking open each one to make sure they were cooked and not frozen.

Overall, for what they charge, I would not go back until things has improved on the floor and kitchen.

Approximate cost: $18.00
