Rice was definitely one of my favourites when I was living in the area - sadly not as frequently visited now I'm on the north eastern side of town, but I still get in once in a while. Eggplant hotpot is my dish of choice, it's something I find few restaurants really do well, and Rice excels at getting it spot on.
Lunch specials are excellent value - the beef noodle was a feature on my desk at work many times. I worked with the wife of one of the chefs for a while, and can confirm it's all very authentic Cantonese :)
The true test of a chinese restaurant, I took a chinese work colleague there, and he was impressed with both the menu, and the meals we received - he did spend a good five minutes discussing exactly what he wanted in Cantonese with the waitress, mind you - and I believe we had something that wasn't actually ON the menu, but it was all good :)
Bookings are a must on Friday and Saturday nights, and recommended on others. Parking on Glen Osmond Road is a pain - make sure you tuck your mirror in, it's a rat race along there. If you go here for a business lunch, let them know and they'll make a point of getting the food to you promptly, or let you know if a dish will potentially take longer. read more
