Nice food with plenty of flavour. Good size meals and extremely
Good value for money. Staff could smile occasionally as they seem to be sour every time I walk in to collect food.

Every neighbourhood needs a good local Choinese. Not Chinese.... Choinese. Serving all your local favourites from a bygone era. A time when the average family only had the choice of fish and chips, pizza, and the local Choinese.
Now the local Choinese always specialised in sweet and sour, lemon chicken, beef and black bean, chow mein, and special fried rice. But most importantly.... And this is still the case, the local Choinese is judged on their home made dim sims.
Now I recommend Fongs, but don't go in there expecting Neil Perry Asian fusion and spice. And certainly don't expect Peking duck, assorted dumplings, and the variety meat creations of Chinatown that momentarily transfer you to some small eatery in provincial Hunan or Szechuan... For this my culinary friends is Choinese... And Choinese consistently done in the family to a consistently good standard since the 1950's.
This is a family restaurant... Have a chat to co-owner Betty who will come and sit down and have a chat to the regular customers (50% of which receive the aged pension and bring in their $10 bottle of wolf blass) Betty's husband cooks and their children work front of house.

So in finishing, this ain't the Flower Drum, but this is good Choinese with some of the better dim sims I've ever had. So that has to count for something.
Score- 6.5/10. As good as Hop Sings....Ned Isakov says you wouldn't want to get blacklisted

The food here is amazing and pretty consistent. Dining in or take away you get great service. I do find it a bit pricey but the quality makes up for that.

We were a group of four. The service was lovely, the dishes we ordered were fresh fresh fresh!.. It was really nice and we will be going back although if they were a little bit more generous with their portions I'm sure we would be regulars.

I don't know about this place - menu is great lots of options and quite varied but the food is just average, nothing 'wow' unfortunately for me, some of the staff here are incredibly friendly - others not so much...
