Old school suburban Australian/Cantonese Chinese food. Small dine in area with little ambience but cool retro features like the wooden wall panelling and ornate plaster ceilings. We ordered the duck pancakes ($23.50) which were 4 pieces. Generous with the duck breast meat and great hoisin sauce flavour.
For main we got the Sizzling Mongolian Lamb ($28.80). Let me just say I think this is the best Mongolian Lamb I've ever eaten in Australia and I've eaten and reviewed so many! Thinly sliced tender meat.. excellent wok hei char on the meat, onions, shallots and what I think was slices morning glory stems. Super tasty sauce. The 2 x portion of steamed rice ($4 per portion) was more rice than we could eat.

Hostess apologised twice for the wait while serving our food and honestly we were fine with it as they were doing their best but appreciate that it was acknowledged.

The decor is dated as some have observed but this in no way deters from the deliciousness served up from...

Super popular for take away on Friday / Saturday so you...
