So, it was raining, I had just finished a terrible shift work and it felt like my stomach had…read morecollapsed into an aching black hole. Conscious of the fact that I needed to eat something before my stomach began to munch on my already struggling liver, I ran into the first place I saw: Yuet Wah. Now, I normally hate ordering takeout for one because you always end up with too much rice and too much of one particular meal. On occasion I have compensated for this by buying two different meals with the intention of saving some for leftovers - only to find myself 30 minutes later with peking sauce all over my face and shirt with not a morsel left. My binge eating problem aside, Yuet Wah has an excellent range of solo diner options that includes both rice and a reasonable serving of a particular meal. Being the stinge I am I was ecstatic when I discovered that I was able to receive all of this for less then $10!! As I waited for my meal I began to check the rest of restaurant out. The dining area was a little uninspired but perfectly practical. There were tables, chairs and wine buckets, but that was pretty much it. I began to wonder what this place was before it was a restaurant that seems to offer meals from every single country in Asia. It quite clearly used to be a house. What type of people used to live in a house that is now a takeaway restaurant? The point I'm getting at is that the atmosphere wasn't convincing and seemed induce bouts of nostalgia. When I returned home I quickly ate my Mongolian Lamb with rice on my bed watching some documentary hosted by Oprah about the holocaust. As you can tell it wasn't the best evening ever but it may have had very little to do with my trip to Yuet Wah. The food was decent but it isn't something you'd write home about. Regardless I licked the takeaway container clean and went to bed.

I can't say I am a huge fan of China View Chinese Restaurant, but I wouldn't say the food is…read moreinedible. This is just your average suburban tacky looking Chinese restaurant/takeaway. I used to live just down the road so I have tried the food from here a couple of times (takeaway both times). Sadly, after a couple of visits, I can not say I ever feel like coming back here. I can't remember which particular dishes I have tried, but what I do remember is that they tasted very average and pretty oily. I love tacky Chinese food, but this is not the best. Having said that, it is the only Chinese restaurant that I know about in the area so if you want Chinese, I guess it will do the trick. The menu features all your favourite Chinese dishes and there is a DIY stir fry option where you can pick your meat and sauce. The menu is pretty big so you should definitely find something that you like. Even though I am not a huge fan of this restaurant, I would not talk someone out of it if they are looking for Chinese food in Kenmore.

I've…read moregiven up on them, after one too many bad experiences: - routinely stuffing up orders, you have to be very careful when they take your order, and make sure they repeat it back to you (and even then GOOD LUCK getting what you ordered/paid for) - food quality used to be terrible but it's improved, however portion size is ridiculously inconsistent. Just now paid $19 for a salt & pepper squid dish, and it's basically an empty plastic container (take out). The dish had exactly 6 little pieces (size of half a standard fish-finger) pieces of squid, rest was filler, sliced onion, eschalots - and even with the filler the standard chinese takeout container was only 15-20% full of food. Terrible restaurant all-in-all.

Since we were at Yum Yum for one thing and one thing only - we ordered the two-course duck, which…read moreincluded the Peking duck and the duck with lettuce wrap. Other choices are available, but I didn't feel like soup or anything. The Peking duck (49) was not bad, though they didn't do a good job of cleaning the fat off the skin (which proper Peking duck is supposed to have), and the duck wasn't all that flavorful - maybe cause the sauce and green onions didn't taste right. The dish is really made for about 10 people as part of a family-style dinner, so I possibly just had a bit too much of the same flavor, but I thought the Peking duck was just mediocre. I've had much better lettuce wraps before, and don't think I'll be returning to Yum Yum, even though it may be the best for Peking duck in Brissy. It didn't live up to my expectations, and just got me craving for Great China's peking duck. Theirs is good enough that I'll put up with their unfriendly and inattentive service just to get some of their duck (and crab and buns)! Ah, I miss good Chinese food...

The little restaurant is a bit tiny inside, and echoey as I found out, so we did spend most of the time not focussing on our food, but on the conversation on the next table. Hey, it's not like we interruped him, we were the only other people in there! The next time we did focus on the food, and while the peking duck this restaurant boasts is pretty yummy (3.5/5 i'm a bit of a peking duck nazi) there are other dishes which compliment that style as well. Plus, you can come in and buy some BBQ meats hanging in the front display window for take away, you just tell them how much, they chop it up and off you go. The dry beef ho fan is quite delicious and packed full of flavour, and I really did love their roast pork and tofu hot pot. Both are tasty and leave you wanting more. I know that a lot of places have given this place raving reviews, evidence of the newspaper and magazine articles are cut out and sticky taped to the front door. I know that people like Bernie from Powderfinger even go there. But i've been to my fair share of chinese tucker places, and while this place has been highly rated, I can't say it's made my top 5. Go there for the duck and a few select dishes, you won't be disappointed. But make no mistake... this place is famous for it's duck... not it's dishes.

I must…read moreadmit, if it was not for the "Daily Lunch Specials" board they have at the front, I probably never would have discovered this place. I am now a die-hard fan of SunFay. The location of this place is a little awkward, it is in between an Op shop and a 7-11 and there is not much going in the front display apart from a really old looking menu and the specials board. Now onto that "specials board"- this place offers a large selection of meals for only $6.50 at lunch time! And these are not small serves either, they all include a serve of rice or fried rice (I always go for the fried rice). Not only that, but they are pretty tasty too! I really like their "Beef in Black bean Sauce", it is generous with the amount of beef and vegetables the give. The service is pretty quick too so if you are just after a quick cheap meal, this place is a very sensible option. This place just goes to show, a bad restaurant layout does not always mean bad food. Next time you are looking for a place to grab lunch in the area, consider SunFay.

I had takeaway food (wonton soup and fried rice) from here today and I was left with a few…read morethoughts. First of all, the broth from the soup was virtually tasteless, which was disappointing as the wontons were delicious. The fried rice was inedible as the meat smelled foul - as if it was several days past its use by date... And its just now that I realized the same meat was in the wonton soup, too. Oh goody, I think i'm in for a treat in the next few days. The staff were polite when I came to pick up my food. I didn't even need to ask for my order because the owner came out with everything ready to go; I simply paid and left. I am inclined to say that the prices were quite high for what I received, especially in the case of the fried rice. I wouldn't visit here again.

We were feeling a bit down because our favourite chinese place had recently closed down (rip darra…read morepalace) and this restaurant opened up. First feeling - not a great place for little kids... but you can go there with little kids if you would like. The owner is really pedantic on keeping the place clean and tidy which is really really good, but it also makes you afraid to make a mess. The food was really nice, but on the slightly expensive side, we ordered 2 entrees, 3 mains and paid $80+ for it on a Friday 2 days prior to Father's Day... as I saw an ad on Facebook saying 10% off, book this Father's Day weekend! But we didn't get the 10% off as it wasn't the Sunday exactly... which was okay I suppose (I felt the advertising was a little misleading). Our normal chinese place would have cost us closer to $40. Furniture looks great, chairs are really heavy to move. Not to be picky, but we ordered a $4 ginger beer, and they poured 1/2 into our glass, put the other 1/2 in the fridge... we weren't too sure what was happening with the other 1/2 so we asked them to bring us the bottle... which they were hesitant about. Just little things, I know I am nit picking, but i'm big on having a good restaurant experience. The food was nice, a two of our dishes had the same vegies through it so they pretty much tasted the same... for the price was a bit of a let down. But it's worth a try.

This little Asian restaurant has a blink-and-you-miss-it sized frontage. In fact, that's how I…read morefound it... I didn't blink as I walked to Coles. And voila! There before me, was this little Asian restaurant I had never seen. With its neon lit 'Open' sign brightly in my eyes, I'm not sure how I never noticed before. So soon after, I called the troops and said, "Lets give this place a try". We made a reservation and upon our arrival I realised, reservation not necessary, they've got plenty of tables. I thought it would have had smaller space in there judging by its frontage, but to my surprise, plenty of room and even a big round table at the back. There were no tablecloths or any such thing, it was a very basic table setting. Meaning, bare table and a tin holding the chopsticks, but hey, sometimes that's all you need. Walls have random portraits hanging and it almost looks like a clinic in there with the lighting and white walls. In saying that, we passed no judgement whatsoever and the troops and I ordered our Chinese favourites. While going through the menu I came across a dish I haven't seen at other Chinese restaurants, 'Morten Bay Bugs'! YUM!!! Oh, it was good. If my caps-lock doesn't say it loud enough, I don't know what would. Highly recommend this dish to anyone who visits this delectable Asian find. If you plan to go to a restaurant for an intimate dinner with a potential partner, this wouldn't really be the place... Unless the person you're taking out already really loves you, you don't have much to prove and you're both only in it for the food. Because let's face it, you don't come here to 'woo' people. You come to Jindalee Villa to make yourself happy and at the end of the day, what's wrong with that?

That feeling, that sinking feeling you get in your gut when you go to a Chinese restaurant you…read morehaven't been to for a while.... You can't remember if it was good or bad or why you haven't been for a while. Well... they call it sinking for a reason as this place was just not what it used to be. We had the salt and pepper squid for entree, very promising... hot, tasty... next please. The curry puffs for another entree.. they came out hot, the sauce was a bit of a mystery to us... not red, not brown... not really sweet and sour... there was a strong vinegar taste and smell to these puffs with every bite. Something had gone off, as my husband put it perfectly, don't they use curry to hide these flavours? So if you can still smell and taste it... it's not good. We didn't eat the other 2. The dishes came out curiously as the shredded beef with Peking sauce was more a sizzling beef in Peking sauce sans the shredding... the braised chicken and veggies were nice, so were the braised veggies with fried tofu. The small cockroaches crawling on the wall next to us the entire time we were there did put me off the food as I counted about 4 or 5 not including the 2 smaller ones we killed.... they seemed to just keep crawling out from somewhere. The chef told the waiter that there was nothing wrong with the curry puffs, but we were asked if we wanted to order anything else which was nice... but unless they spray the place, I don't think we will be back. Note: this restaurant has recently been renovated and looks a lot better, I will have to give the new look a try - keep you posted Yelpers.

This place used to be better 15 years ago. I would now give them three stars only because there is…read moreno option for two and a half stars. Three stars is too generous, and two stars is a too mean. On average three stars out of five for food - the food usually ranges from acceptable to good, but can occasionally be terrible. Service is really, really, really bad and they have a big attitude problem - they are horrible at times. One star out of five for service. The owner and staff can be appallingly rude. They are not stupid, and I am certain they know what basic manners mean, but they don't give a damn about how they speak to customers. They only care about money. We only go there (occasionally) because we live in the area.

Yet here I sat in The Single Guys, conversations echoing from each corner of the cafe that was full of people enjoying coffees and ordering from a wholesome menu with choices like a blueberry bagel with vanilla ricotta and honey, or swiss brown mushrooms, fetta, asparagus with fig vincotto on sourdough. Staff did a beautiful dance from table to table in their unofficial uniforms of a white tee, jeans and black cons. All complimented by their dark grey aprons against the navy and white walls of this unassuming but ready to be recognised cafe. From Moggill Road you might miss it so keep an eye out for their mascot, a lone deer on a sign. One of the owners tell me the stag is a play on the image being a symbol of bachelor life, although their name is more of an ode to their house blend being a combination of single origin beans. Despite the clean and hipsterific interior, the crowd here is mixed: young and old alike. It's a great hub of activity. I ordered the mushroom toastie which was the perfect breakfast or light lunch, and on a hot Summers day their Iced V60 black coffee was the deliciously mellow drink I needed to befriend on a day like today. And the flat white was perfection in a white china cup.
