Nothing special about the food that comes out of the kitchen. Although it's located conveniently I wouldn't even think of going back because of the poor service and poor quality of food. The yum cha is plain, and although there is a lot to choose from, most of the basics weren't cooked well.

I didn't enjoy the yum cha food they had. The prawn dumpling was too soft and fell apart, same with the pork pastry which collapsed as soon as my chopsticks tried to pick it up. The place looks very nice and is located in the little shopping complex so very convenient.

No aspect of this Chinese restaurant amazed me, the food is average, service is average, and value for money is also average. The atmosphere was nice and comfortable to sit in. The Chinese food is quite authentic but once again nothing that stood out.

The Yum cha is alright, food is generally nice but occassionally the food that comes out isn't the best. Their durian pastry is very nice and I recommend the cha siu sou (Pork pastry). It's very comfortable and spacious. The interior looks new and it can cater for a lot of people. The staff is nice enough.

Agree that is the best place for Yum Cha in town. It's always packed and despite the seemingly dirty and shabby dining area, the good food makes up for it. My only complain is that it's time for a renovation. When your chairs have stains on them you know it's time to get rid of them. Otherwise the food is hard to find fault with!

A restaurant that offers Yum Cha in the evening. I often go here despite not living close to it because it's familiar and my husband likes it due to easy parking (trivial reason, I know.) The food is reasonably nice. There egg tarts are a must have, although its quality fluctuates. The other foods are nice... They either give you a piece of paper where you can tick how much and what you want or on other days they have their staff pushing around trolleys. The interior is well decorated, they play elegant music and the lights look amazing. One word of warning, they have no aircon. I went on the 1st of January this year, aboslutely scorching, and we told them it was a bit hot and if they could turn on the aircon. They told us the aircon was already on full but they could give us a fan... the girl walked out holding one of those plastic fans that you fan yourself with....

Gourmet Kones makes pizzas in a cone... may sound weird but wait till you try it. I'm wondering where they've been all my life! There is a large range of fillings you can choose from! I love the coffee there, just right! They also have nice gelati but the reason I keep going back is for the pizza kones!!

This restaurant has the nicest group of staff! They are very patient, know how to handle with large amounts of customers and efficient at their job. We didn't even have to ask them to take a picture for us, they asked themselves. Impeccable manner! The food is even nicer, and very affordable. The pastas are delicious and so is everything else on the menu. They also have a dessert bar and gelato bar (also sorbet for those who can't have dairy). On the menu there are foods that cater for those who can't eat gluten or are vegetarian. The interior looks amazing, modern and sleek!

This review is for Elbio All About Sweets, Newton SA

Like their name suggests, Elbio All About Sweets is serious about making yummy pastries and cakes! They have the prettiest and tastiest range of cakes ranging from cheesecakes to tiramisus. If you want you can enjoy the cake with a cup of coffee as they have a small section allowing dine in. I generally buy an assortment and take them away. You can buy big boxes of one type of cake for a cheaper price.
