Need A Restaurant Recommendation Pls!

[Kaz200]

Hey guys, can someone please recommend a REALLY GOOD chinese restaurant in the city.. I have some family coming down from Sydney on the weekend, and so far I've only been to yummy Japanese places really

We are really picky/critical about food (and service!) so I hate just taking a guess as to where to go, and then regretting it

All help appreciated

Please let me know why you think a particular restaurant is good too..

Thanks,

Kaz

flower drum if you can afford a billion dollars for it

theres a chinese bbq place near the top of latrobe st (forget place name) which is really good

theres a really nice chinese place in elsternwick - its on glen huntly rd

another good one is lucky buddha in brighton on hamton rd

an ace one is jade village on maroonda hwy in ringwood (this place is tops)

I would suggest just going to ChinaTown in the City.

Seriously 99.9% of the restaurants along there are TOP NOTCH and you really cant go wrong.

Pick and chose at will.

BOL with the family coming down.

on Hampton St

probably a bit too basic though.

Shark Fin Inn in the City is good

there's a new place in Church St, Brighton too but i havent been there

Theres a chinese chilli restraunt near china town thats sure to put any family memebr you wantn in hospital for the majority of their trip

Seriously, the place is bloody ridiculous. Would anyone like some Chicken with their chilli?

can 2nd that one upstairs in Latrobe St...

now i feel like china bar (not a place to take family just all this talk of chinese food is making me hungry)

[phunky_monkey]

Not in the city, but close

Try David's off of Chapel St, beautiful food, really nice place, and reasonably priced.

[shepo]

sorry i only know of wok on bay in mornington, it might be a bit out of your way.

The Red Emperor at Southbank is the best Chinese restaurant ive ever been to (and i love my Chinese) It has been awarded 2 hats..yes not one but 2 hats. That sort of reputation speaks for itself. The service we recieved was second to none (we had the matre'd look after us as we ordered a fairly expensive bottle of wine before dinner).

My recommendations:

Flower Drum - City. Awesome food & Serive, expensive, book early or you may not be able to get a seat.

Silks - City. Awesome food & Service, expensive.

David's - Prahran. Great food & service (not quite as good as the other two), reasonably priced.

I live in Box Hill. Gogo Best Food Gallery, name speaks for itself JK JK

Wouldnt take rellies there, or anyone for that matter.

[Jamezilla]

Tea House in Chinatown gets my vote.

[Do-Luck]

Thought about Williamstown at all? I know it's NOT the city but one of my favourite Chinese restaurants is there. It's called Lion Dance.

ok. what kind of chinese food are you actually thing of? Like a casual type with like lemon chicken ETC , those type of dished that are tailored to weterners or a typuical chines food?

you like mainly beef , chicken, fish?

Formal type or real bustling type or doesnt matter? Cheap eats or moderate or expensive?

Hmm but my suggestion is the Shark Fin Inn. On lt bourke. chinatown nearer to the spring st ones not the one close to chinatown. Dinner or "yum cha"?

Tehy food i think its good and very resonable price. Probably a good dinner A$20/head.

[saff_cossie]

There is a newish one in Church St, Brighton called Humble House. It does an assortment of Asian cuisine including Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese etc. Very good food.

[Kaz200]

Thanks for all the feedback Appreciate the effort thanks

I don't go for that new gourmet aussie chinese food like at Flower Drum though I imagine if you did it would be a great place to go. Want more like a 50 item menu etc with traditional aussie chinese like mongolian beef, chicken cashew, honey prawns and the like

Moderate to expensive.. parents are buying hehe

oh cantonese is a better way to describe it

Well you should have said it ealier. Easy as . Ahark fin Inn is the go then. Remember to go the one nearer to the spring st not the one nearer to chinatown. Make sure you book in advance.

Ask for Angus or Kelvin. Tell them his god younger bro sent you and he will look after you. Hmnm you can bring in some wines too!! BYOs. Seafood is good. Its good few fishes like Mor wong, sek pan which are bothe ecxpensive. Then theres barramundis, murray cod( cheaper). I like them steamed in soya sauce and spring onions and cilantro.

Theres pekind duck too. hmm fried spare ribs which is noice. Hmm care for any oily stuff? They will look after you anyway and ask them to recommend. Hmm probably you should make a call and make a reservation a few days in advance . hope this helps.
