I always have Classic milk tea with Tapioca pearls. I tried their house special noodles as well. They had nice umami flavour with different add ons like fresh chillies, onions, beans etc.
Dana

Came for the spicy and sour noodles! Was worried about finding good Asian food here but this definitely hit the spot! If you’re needing a bit more spice, they have extra chili flakes. Lovely little seating area and perfect for a quiet meal alone or with friends!
Matthew

Justin was a terrific guide who expertly wove food tastings and history together. All the food we tried was delicious and I especially appreciated the “Chinatown Bingo Card” recommendations he provided at the end of the tour. 10/10!
Angelo

MUST VISIT! Lovely little place! Nice aesthetic, cosy and welcoming. Food is decently priced and very tasty! Service was amazing and very friendly staff. Bubble tea was great and lots of variety. Would definitely come back!

Amit

It is very nice and cozy place to have tasty Chinese food. We had chicken streak and chicken noodles soup and it was good. Quantity is also good here. I would recommend everyone to try mango milk tea with tapioca. It is a must have.
Sue

Delicious Asian street food and snacks. We had the chicken katsu curry rice bowl, karaage fried chicken, chicken katsu rice, braised pork rice and lemonade with aloe jelly. Taste was good and portion sizes were generous. Upstairs seating has a cosy ambience. Loved the catchy mandopop and cantopop songs in the background.

Bunny was very informative and made the day interesting and entertaining!
Steven

Justin was great. Excellent knowledge base. Very friendly. The amount of food and the location of the stops were excellent. Timed perfectly. He even had laminated photos and documents to share about the Chinese history in Australia and Sydney. We recommend whole heartedly.
