Char Kwee Tiaw after hours, no cooking needed…read more A long day, BoxFit session done around 8:30pm, now I'm hungry for some quick goodness to satisfy this craving. Woohooooo, Eureka this place is still open, we were the last customers. As we walked in two Ceiling fans were working hard, I don't think the AC was on, it was HOT, steamy, the room is filled with South East Asian aromas and it's not even a 40 degree Melbourne day, lots of goodness has been cooked and served before us, humidity, smells & sweats, reminiscence of a Hawker street somewhere in KL, Kuala Lumpur. I can feel my sweat from the BoxFit session has a new flavours now. From the Street level, this place is nothing fancy, the bright Green Jade colour is the only attractive feature about it, BUT what they are serving are incredible for what they are charging, they could and should charge more. Started with the CKT (Malaysian and Singaporean loves to abbreviate words) or Char Kwee Tiaw, Fried Rice Noodles, then Char Hor Fun, Combination Fried Rice Noodles with Egg Gravy sauce and lastly some Curry Puffs or Samosa (Indian) or Pastel (Indonesian). This pastry varied inside, but has common ingredients; Potatoes, Curry and Chilly. It was the right decision, not sure whether my muffin top would agree, worry about that later. In under than 5 minutes after we ordered, those goodness were flying onto our table .... so QUICK .... they served the best first ..... CKT - Char Kwee Tiaw, easy 8.5/10 ....VERY strong aroma of the Pork Crackling and Chinese Sausages, BIG Prawns just needs that burnt-wok taste, makes it a little drier .... That was a joy for around $12 Char Hor Fun 7/10, not quite there, rice noodles needs to be fried more but the Egg Gravy Sauce was tasty, it can be better and traces of the egg yolks still prominent, that tasty runny eggs .... about $12 Curry Puffs easily 8/10, fried to perfection, balanced ingredients and served hot, very important in my opinion, the aromatic flavours lingers as you bite into it, $5,50 for three. All these flavours plus Sambal & Chillies makes my palate sings. Life doesn't get much better than this after a long long day. Simplistic Joy and no drugs needed, just some CKT. A decade ago or so we might not be able to get these kind of offerings, so I must thank & commend the Chef and proprietor of the business for bringing that Hawkers' spirit and providing these goodness for us to enjoy.

We've been there a few times and still haven't gone through the whole menu .... too many to try,…read moreusually sticks to our favourites and not enough days in a week to try them. Very pleasant, spacious, modern and clean interior, so are those toilets. Typical Malaysian fares, Hawkers style, big portion. Consistently good, never missed a beat. Love their service too. GREAT WORK!

We have been to Jonker Street many times. The food is amazing!…read more Their Roti and curry puffs are handmade and are meltingly flakely. The curries are perfectly balanced and spiced. I try to order other things but their Laksa is the best I have tried and I keep going back. This is a family business and the service and ambience is always warm and friendly. I travel from Brunswick just for the curry puffs

There were bits of pork fat in the CKT which some people may like but it was not for me. The restaurant is family owned and sitting inside felt like being at an American diner but the staff were friendly enough and felt like they make an effort with the customers. I wouldn't go out of my way for this one, but if you're after something quiet, casual and inoffensive this will suite.

Clean modern, if slightly utilitarian fit-out, and they sell Malaysian ingredients too. Good value, and service is quite friendly.

Yes, it's another Asian/Malaysian franchise .... must be ordinary right?…read moreWRONG ... Firstly, it's modern, spacious and clean .... tell me, how many other Asian restaurants in Box Hill are like that? Superb location, easy to find. Secondly, what a pleasant service, now tell me which other restaurants in Box Hill. We love how the young ladies serves us with smiles and politeness every week without fail. Extra Fresh Cut Chilies, no worries ... Thirdly, I've/we've been there 4 weeks in a row, different menu every week and the only disappointment was the Roti Chanai with Beef Curry, the rest are tasty and EXTRA LARGE serve, so I think to be fair, this place has done a great job. Lastly, if I may make a suggestion, please serve HOT Chinese Teas and take Credit Card as payment, who carry cash these days? Well done to the team, we will come back for more.

I placed an order with Uber Eats 5 days ago for food to celebrate Chinese New Year's with friends…read more During lunch today I received a message that one item I had ordered was not available. I changed the order and arranged for a pick up between 7 and 7.30 pm. I then received a message shortly after 7 to inform me that my order had been cancelled. Leaving me no time to arrange an alternative meal. I knew Chinese New Year's would be busy and placed my order several days in advance. This is the service I have received tonight from both China Bar and Uber eats. My guests and I will now be celebrating the New Year with what ever I can find. I am unlikely to find a quality Chinese restaurant that can deliver an authentic Chinese dinner for the celebration. Please keep this story in mind if using Uber Eats or ordering from China Bar. A cancellation with 2 hours notice would be unacceptable but for a cancellation at the exact time of the pick up is both incompetent and totally thoughtless.
