This is that sort of Chinese place that turns up in the suburbs. No dishes just beef with a, beef with b, chicken with a, chicken b etc. If you want cheap food, then sure, go here.

You know you are in the right Chinese restaurant when it is full of Chinese students. Really good Shanghai style smelly tofu, nice little combination set lunches (nice and cheap anyway), roasted chicken and some nice soups etc.

Not the best quality but the best value for money.

This review is for Cube Hot Pot, Sunnybank QLD

I love Chinese hot pot, especially when the weather is cold. I northern Chinese friends love hot pot at all times and any weather.

Hot pot is best shared with a larger group. Here you can order spicy soup, savoury soup or half and half. Then you order meat, vegetables etc and throw them in the pot to cook and eat.

It is a fun night out for a group, unless you bring some fussy eaters.

This nice little seafood cafe often mistakenly is called a fish & chip shop. Though of course you can pop in for your takeaway fish and chips. In price, quality and service it fits into the cafe pricing well.

The seafood platter is pretty good value for money for a meal for two people without being anything overly fancy.

This review is for Dragon Lake Chinese Restaurant, Upper Mount Gravatt QLD

This restaurant must be owned by Malaysian or Singaporean Chinese simply because of the number of Malaysian dishes on the menu. There is a also a smattering of dishes from around China, such as Mapo Tofu from Sichuan province and Shandong style Chicken. There is also Vietnamese style chicken here as well (were they Vietnamese Chinese who lived in Malaysia or Singapore who then came to Brisbane?)

Not authentic, but great place to try some food from around China and Asia.

This review is for Dining Room Chinese Restaurant, Sunnybank Hills QLD

Sunnybank hills is where many middle class Chinese are moving to for affordable houses that are not that far from Sunnybank. So obviously there are some good Chinese restaurants here.

The dining room is one of those places that serve soup at the beginning and a Chinese dessert at the end. in Southern Chinese tradition, soup is meant to aid in digestion while eating.

This is definitely the place to go for good southern Chinese style food. The crowds who come her attest to that fact.

Good Vietnamese food that is well presented. Haven't tried the Banh Mi (because I normally buy it from a local bakery) but the rice paper rolls are fresh and delicious. They are a perfect light lunch if you have a busy afternoon.

This review is for Tukka Restaurant, West End QLD

Tukka features Australian cuisine which includes both locally sourced ingredients as well as bush meats, fruits and vegetables.

It is definitely worth checking out just for that experience, but also the food is excellent.

The share platters feature local game meats and are an interesting culinary experience. You don't have to be too adventurous here if you don't want, but I recommend trying to degustation menu or share platters for the most interesting combinations.

This review is for Noodle World, Sherwood QLD

This is an okay noodle restaurant that serves a whole range of Asian noodle dishes, including Thai, Chinese and Malaysian. The fried noodles can be a little greasy, but if you want a spicy dish then try the Thai noodles or Laksa.

This slightly grungy place in Sunnybank plaza is a good place to get some real Asian food. I quite like the spicy eggplant, though there are heaps of things on the menu. There are better restaurants in sunnybank, but this place is great for a cheap meal.
