This is tucked away in an obscure (for us Southsiders) part
of Belconnen behind the Mall in one of those semi industrial/commercial
areas. The positives in that are that
there was lots of parking nearby and that the restaurant wasn't packed. But almost all of the people in there seemed
to be of Asian background, which is a good sign for a Chinese restaurant.
- Golden silken tofu
- flaming pork chop
- Roast
duck
- ie pancakes then stir fried with vegetables
The duck pancakes were brilliant, some of the best, not
greasy, tender, well presented, absolutely delish, as was the accompanying duck with veges,
which had a great sauce.
We ordered the tofu despite Ron's objections, but he changed
his mind once it came. It had been fried
in a casing, and served with an egg white and seafood sauce, which had a
fabulous texture.
The crab was a bit chilli for some, otherwise not too oily and declared to be "very nice"
The pork was presented well, but was really pork pieces done
in a sweet sauce with a slight smokey flavour.
Very nice as well.
We will go back especially to have the banquet menu which is stuck up on the wall and written only in Chinese but which is for a minum of 6 people (we were only 5).
