"Impressed that the 003 Xiao Long Bao (8pc) / 小笼包 were still hot and intact after delivery. Delicious. "
"Pan fried pork buns are delicious - crispy bottom and suprisingly juicy. Some buns could do with more filling for balance. The sweet and sour pork was very disappointing. Mushy batter, so wouldnt be surprised if it was left overnight and reheated. Not enjoyable at all, sadly had to throw it out. I ordered for lunch so maybe during dinner service it would be fresh. "

"Didn’t expect it to be this good! Most Malaysian spots in Australia miss the mark on authenticity, but this one proved me wrong. The Curry Chicken Laksa was a solid 10/10 — fresh, flavour-packed, and the portion size was totally worth the price. If they ever add Penang Laksa to the menu, they’d have lines out the door.
