    Good, fast, cheap, tasty, juicy, cash-only dumplings for you and the family and your friends and…read moremaybe you drunk uncle to come and enjoy in a communal setting on Anzac Parade like you were in a hutong in downtown Beijing. ... if how I would describe this experience in one sentence. We had some takeaway boiled egg curry puffs from another store that we brought in with us and they were cool with us eating these at the table. Big props for being max chill. We hit the beef, pork, prawn and vegetable steamed dumplings and man, I gotta tell ya, pork just steal the day, don't they? I mean I'm as big a prawn fan as the next bloke, but there's just something about pork and the way it's all juicy delicious inside that glutinous little wrapping. It's a happy marriage, one that I want to eat as much of as humanly possible. I'm not an Anzac Parade regular, but this place made The List, that one I keep in my head.

    We came here on a monday around noon time (public holiday) and it was 60% full. We ordered some…read moredumplings and main. Initially they told me we might need to wait for the dumplings so the main would be served first. No problem. After 15 mins, the dumplings came , and they said the chef made it for us first....oh sure... when we were done with the dumplings, it took ANOTHER 20 mins for the main dish to come. 20 mins !!! We were still hungry when we finished so we ordered some boiled dumplings. MISTAKE - cause it took already 15 mins. Seriously, how difficult is it to boil some dumplings (assuming the dumplings were pre-made). The food was not bad, but the wait was really annoying. Not sure if I would be back....

    I became familiar with this Chinese restaurant before I went there. Such is the power of word of…read moremouth. It wasn't a terribly exciting or even positive introduction. And it had absolutely no relationship to the food. It was the stools. The red stools that people sit on. And I got word that they were supremely uncomfortable. I didn't follow up on the critique (made by a friend) and in fact forgot about the restaurant altogether. It wasn't until my partner and I happened to be walking around Darlinghurst around dinner time at a later date that I remembered about the comment (which would surely put a black mark on any restaurant's name). And yet, it was delightful. We were the first ones there - so early in fact that we lingered outside like miscreants while the staff were eating their dinner - and avoided the stools altogether, and instead sat at the two person table further toward the kitchen. We ordered the Beijing Dumplings (lamb and vegetarian), the steamed vegetarian buns, hainan chicken rice and the nyonya chicken and potato curry with two pots of brown rice. Mostly everything was outstanding. The only thing that didn't surpass our expectations wildly was the Hainan chicken rice. The rest was so incredibly good that we've gone back twice since (take-away). The staff were also incredibly accommodating and take note that they have a vegetarian menu as well as a Coeliac one. As for those infamous stools, on our last visit there to pick up our take-away we saw Hugo Weaving sitting on one of them at the far end of the communal table eating his dinner. If it's good enough for Hugo Weaving ..

    Thinking about the Sang Choi Bao ($13) at Fu Manchu is enough to get me excessively drooling. I am…read moreso glad a friend of mine shared one of hers with me all that time ago because now when I come here I encourage other friends to try them too. Everybody is just as impressed as I am. The fresh prawn rice paper rolls with chilli dipping sauce and Beijing vegetarian dumplings are also staples. The Beef Tenderloin Fillet Fry ($20) is tasty but the Mixed Asian Greens ($10) is uninspiring. The menu is a little pricier than you would find elsewhere and you may find yourself leaving still relatively hungry. But if you order more (like I usually do) or come on a night when you are not incredibly hungry to begin with, then the quality of food should impress you. The restaurant is BYO and also has a coeliac friendly gluten-free menu and options for kids. The only issue I have with this place is the menu layout. I think it would be more successful if the dishes had a bit more description in terms of the sauces rather than just the main ingredient.
