Situated in the Chinatown district on fashionable Gouger Street, boasts an impressive menu of Chinese-style dishes cooked to perfection. If you're heading in on a Friday or Saturday evening, be sure to make a reservation as the tables fill up fast.



A popular spot for vegetarians, the salt and pepper eggplant (pictured) and shallot cakes are practically a must. The vegetarian duck will have you checking with the super-friendly staff to make sure it's really not meat. Carnivores are kept happy with a large range of chicken, seafood, beef and pork dishes in delicious sauces, and the hotpots in particular come highly recommended.

Regular visitors are rewarded with a lovely homely relationship with proprietor Michael and his staff. If you're having trouble deciding, ask your waiter to recommend something, as they all have an outstanding knowledge of the menu and will happily help you out. Otherwise, order several dishes and share the experience.

The wine list provides opportunities to experiment, with all the regulars for those who are more traditionalists. Check out the menu here .

The atmosphere is bustling and vibrant, if at times a touch loud, but a table outside under the large heaters provided is the perfect spot for people-watching over a spread of quality cuisine. The location provides many nearby options for a post-dinner drink.

has won many awards for outstanding food and quality service since the doors opened in 2003, including taking out the Restaurant and Catering Awards of SA for four years running. It's a pretty safe bet there are many awards to come.
