Sticky rice - fatty, but little flavour.
An interesting menu system - combination of trolleys and an order sheet.
Prawn rice rolls - with loads of oil! They looked like carpet pythons that swallowed some small rodent - with just two little prawns per roll... They were small and flavourless - white and (maybe) freezer burnt.
Har gow - prawn dumplings. Don't want to be such a whinger, but they were terrible. They really could be frozen packet dumplings.
Scallop dumplings - the rice paper was like rubbery glue.
Sui Mai - about the same...
Over all it maybe the most westernised yum cha in existence. Beyond being in outer suburbs of a city with a only very small Chinese community, and in a pub - this yum cha (which translates as 'drink tea') restaurant doesn't really serve tea! When we ordered some it was marked in the special dishes section of the order ticket... and no one else around us had any.
At least it was cheap - $21.40 for 2 people. Neither of us were full though, and I felt sick afterwards.
This is by far the worst yum cha I have ever had.

WORST DINNING EXPERIANCE EVER!
I would never go there again nor even I would I recommend this restaurant to someone I didn’t like!
The Yum Cha dishes were a mix of uncooked or completed over cooked to the point that the food was all dried up! We tried to send pork and another beef dish back because the meat tasted off and the chef would was also the manager said too bad this is not a tasting place you pay!
The service was a joke, some staff didn’t not understand English and when asked for sauce (the the meal normally comes with) the staff forgot and started to service other customers until she was reminded again.
When we complained one staff member commented... I wouldn’t eat here either. Even the tea was weak and without flavour.
Biggest waste of money as I went home and felt sick for the rest of the afternoon due to uncooked meat.
The only person I would recommend to try this place would be a health inspector!
WHAT A JOKE!
