Essentially the Melbourne equivalent to Chin Chin and while not exactly on par I don’t think it trails too far behind, although annoyingly they insist upon you doing a feed me menu if your group is 6 or more which is probably an unfair cut off. We sat outside and being on the corner of a busy road it was quite loud but I loved the greenery and lights wrapping around the exterior.
Being a set menu we had dishes I wouldn’t have chosen though they did seem quite willing to customise the banquet for you. Given my group (other than me) was pretty fuss free we decided to opt for chefs selection and there was a decent amount of food, although I found a lot of it incredibly spicy (yummy kingfish I’m looking at you).
The standouts for me were the kampot pepper fried chicken, the massaman wagyu beef curry, coconut and chicken salad and the delicious stir fried greens. The roti with pandan custard was deliciously flavoursome also. One thing to note, bookings are essential
