well we went looking for what we had was a great chinese restaurant– but it was not to be. overrated & expensive ++++ 8 dumplings @ $ 24 and they weren’t even impressive. peking duck pancakes were dry but the duck sang choy bow was ok. vegetarian fried rice was shameful– a bit of rice with a few vegetables thrown in– zero flavour the only saving grace was the chicken spring rolls we had to start, they were really delicious my advice to you is if you like good chinese food don’t come here!

I am always a big fan of yum cha, no matter where and what time of the day. I do believe good food it need to be able to eat any time! So I went to silver this afternoon after movie, just right bellow the cinema at Bondi Westfield. It used to be Kam Fook reataurant, if I remember correctly. The did awesome transformation to make this Chinese reataurant looks more elegant. Mind you, that the food also not coming cheap! However, in my personal opinion, if you are a big fan, I don’t think you should put price tag on the food you loves. Waiter offered me tea, which I don’t mind for rainy weather like today. Since I was lived in China for some years,(and also have Chinese blood in me), I do know some rules regarding«tea manner» on dinning table. So the pointy neck from your tea pot shouldn’t be facing you or the guess on the table, old Chinese say it is hoping for some bad thing to happen for the person that«pointed» with it. I was but shock that they didn’t notice this thing, as I’m not ‘gweilo’ I’m expecting they know this tea manner thing. Well, soup coming with $ 8.80 price tag, I know… So Chinese, right! 8 represent a good number in Chinese myth. Tasting platter not so bad, all came in good flavour, the only thing is(again, my personal opinion) need to steam a little longer, a minute I supposed, because I still can fill the rawness of skin that wrapping those dumpling. But hey. I did enjoyed the food!
