Lucky for me, one of my friends had recommended this Taiwanese Dumpling restaurant. Having never ordered here before, the group of friends I was dining with ordered a variety of dishes that included a mix of 20 dumplings, fried vegetable noodles and two other items that were circled in the menu, indicating it was one of the restaurant's specials. These were the shallot pancake and the beef noodle soup, both of which were the favourite items by far I tasted there. The Beef Noodle Soup was very surprising, unlike the Vietnamese Beef Noodle Soup, this Taiwanese version had large chunks of beef, that were slow cooked and so tender they melted in your mouth. The soup also had a slight sweet aroma to it, that made it unlike a lot of other noodle soup dishes I've tried before and tasted very delicious. The shallot pancake too was very crispy, had the texture of an oily, flaky, thin pizza bread, although tasted more similar to an indian roti bread with a hint of the onion flavour that the shallots added. This is a good place to visit when you're in a pickle and needing to pick a good restaurant to dine at on Burwood road.

It was to die for. It wasn't too hot and spicy, but very fragrant, garlicky and tangy, tomato sauce-like. The wonton that came with the noodles fish was super flavorful as well. I didn't like the pork ribs much because it was a bit sweet. The tofu dessert was extremely smooth and piping hot. It melted in my mouth. The chendol was ok too. Only downside was there was a little bit of wait, and there were only 2 waiters, which made it hard to get their attention sometimes.

I liked them on Facebook and they gave us two free macha tea ice creams which were the best I have had. The service was good and the food was reasonably priced. The atmosphere was nice considering that it is located in a centre with lots of other Asian restaurants.

It's pretty crowded inside, lots of close tables, and the decor is very basic - but I'm pretty sure most people are there for the food, not the atmosphere. We usually go for flavour noodles (it's like a pork spaghetti bolognese but with noodles), black fungus with egg (tastes better than it sounds!) and either steamed or fried dumplings. The steamed dumplings can take a while to come out though. Other food comes out really fast! The hot and sour soup with chopped noodles is also pretty good, and comes in a huge bowl that can be shared between about 3-4 people. Also, the tea is free, which is always nice. The only downside to this place is the cleanliness. It's not dirty, but the bowls are often wet, as are the chopsticks or cutlery. It might make you wonder how well everything has been washed... If that bothers you, this might not be the place for you :). There are a few places in Burwood with a similar setup, and they all seem very popular, so I'm not too concerned about it. I would definitely recommend Seabay if you are looking for good value and a quick meal in Burwood. I have seen another Seabay in Eastwood, which I think is the same (the signs look the same, I didn't go in though).

Since the sate was thick it trapped the heat in and I burnt my tongue trying to slurp down the tasty noodles. The consistency of the noodles were good, not too soft and soggy. The meat slices were OK, but it crumbs up too much in my opinion, leaving only a couple of "larger" pieces and the rest so small it's difficult to really taste the meat. However, the portion size was large, even though we only ordered the small sizes. This place definitely satisfied our cravings. Service was just ok, just flag the staff down when you need them. Verdict: A-OK, will visit again if in the area

They serve noodles, various appetisers, and dumplings prepared in a kitchen behind what looks like a Japanese-style wooden counter. The walls are dotted with cute sketches of various menu items, random cartoon sketches and some anime posters. The floors are a checkered design on top of which the brown wooden tables and seats are spaced out evenly. What I enjoyed about this place is the casual dining, attentive service, clean tables and the snappiness of which food comes out after ordering. I have had the hand-made dumplings, beef brisket noodle soup, seaweed salad, and what I like to call the "bashed cucumber" - a cold cucumber salad of which the cucumber looks like it is prepared simply by bashing it with a wooden club into small chunks with the flesh loosely attached to the skin of the cucumber. Regardless, the cucumber is served with a kind of spicy and chilli sauce which adds a nice flavour when mixed with the raw cucumber. The hand-made dumplings were good but my favourite would be the beef brisket noodle soup. The beef was tender and tasty and the hand made noodles had a chewy texture which was nice. As for the seaweed salad, it consisted of thinly sliced seaweed, carrots and bean sprouts in a light sesame oil which is kind of refreshing. I would recommend this place if you like dumplings, Chinese appetisers and hand-made noodles.

Macau Noodle Kitchen (澳門小廚) is located on the street corner of Burwood St and George St. The…read morespacious and simple interior is that of a typical Chinese restaurant where you would expect to find authentic food at. The service is a bit slow, with the abundance of locals and the few staff outside the kitchen. We ordered the Char Siu Low Mein (叉燒撈麵) , Seafood Congee (海鮮粥) and Stir-fried Chinese Kale with Ginger (薑汁芥蘭). The roasted pork is cut into generous slices, laid atop the hill of noodles. The Char Siu has the signature crimson glaze, charred on the edges and soft in the middle. The pork isn't particularly juicy, but the right balance of sweet and salty makes up for chewiness in some pieces. The blanched noodles and cabbage are not seasoned at all - the low mein is supposed to be glowing with a rich coat of soy sauce - providing only texture and confusing taste of rawness. While we are provided with table-side salt, pepper and soy sauce, the flavoring is still missing. The seafood congee has the same issue; while both the rice and the various seafood ingredients are cooked to the right degrees, the complete lack of flavoring can't be overlooked. The stir-fry has a nice, mild undertone of ginger, but the stems are fiber-y and undercooked (result of being stir fried with the leaves without being separately blanched first), forcing us to leave behind the stems in a locust-swarm style. Overall, the serving sizes are quite huge for the price, good for gluttonous eaters and those who want a undemanding meal with some good char siu pork.
