First Taste

Came here at 7pm on a Sunday for dinner with a couple of friends. They have one of the best soups in Melbourne! However, if you’re in a rush I’d say to find another place. The waiters have been deliberately ignoring us trying to order. We even went to the counter trying to order. We put through our order 15 mins after seating down. Hopefully it’s just a one time thing.

They has kept the interior of the restaurant unchanged for the last 10 years and that reminded me those good old times I spent with my late grandmother. Some of their soups are tasty but I generally avoid anything features lean porks. Although, the soups are continuously boiling in the steamer however, somehow I felt the soups aren’t freshly made daily. I highly recommend ordering the signature clay pot rice with Chinese sausages. The sausage fat mix with sizzling steam rice in a clay pot is definitely mouth watering. The crust of the rice is just right on point, not too chewy or burnt. Two suggestions to the restaurant: 1) please don’t thinly sliced the sausages. Please offer the whole sausages for extra charge. 2) please offer sweet soy sauce (Lee Kum Kee Claypot Sauce) to customer as the condiment. One last thing, please stay away from ordering the chicken claypot rice. The sauce topping was bad and the chicken pieces were too boney and salty.
