Sydney yum cha











If only I could remember the name of this restaurant. It was great.

Crunky chocolate


They brought this back for me from Shanghai.
Cool name, slightly less awesome chocolate.

Yum cha at the Sydney Fish Markets



Fisherman's Wharf Seafood Restaurant is at the end of the Fish Markets arcade and up the stairs.
We went for lunch one Tuesday. I was transfixed by the prawns in the tank. The way they scoot along the floor without moving, like running on a treadmill. Like layers of leaves rustling on a windy street. The yum cha was great too, especially my favourite one, the fried oval-shaped rice dumplings with BBQ pork inside. There were some fantastic prawn and vegetable steamed ones and the good old silken tofu in cold coconut soup. Then I found the crab tanks. And the lobster tanks. Who needs a lava lamp or a meditation tape when you can watch seafood?

Yum cha at Landmark, Sunnybank





























Definitely now the best yum cha in town. King of Kings is past its prime; so is Golden Palace. And it looks like everyone else in town knows it! We had a booking for 11.30, and when we arrived, the queue for walk-ins was out the door, round the corner in the shopping centre. This is a huge, loud, asylum of tasty bites. Good yum cha. Very good. Good options, lots of variety, lots of yumminess.
