Choi's Kitchen — Restaurant in Tasmania

This is a real gem of a place in a part of the island not renowned for its top-drawer Asian cuisine. If you are dining-in, give yourself plenty of time because you will be competing with the busy takeaway trade - another good sign I always reckon.

We'll definitely be back, even if the other...
