Order Food in ormond

Came down here on a Saturday evening for dinner and they were already half packed. The first thing you notice is the place is very rudimentary, floor tiles is slightly greasy sticky and I knew it straight away the food was going to be good and authentic. The service is efficient and on point, got the menu and water as we sat down. Ordered the XLB, Xiao long bao, Chinese sausage fried rice, spring onion pancake and pan fried pork dumplings. The food came out very quickly and it was definitely cooked to order as the buzz from kitchen rang out for each order. Spring onion pancakes were had a crunchy crust, the centre was chewy and packed plenty of savoury flavour, just like how I had it in China. The fried rice was cooked in a wok with nice amount of oil to keep the rice seperate and packed plenty of wok hei (breath of the wok). XLB was small in size but well portioned for a mouth explosion with the hot soup inside as you one biter. This is the real experience of XLB. The fried pork dumpling is definitely made in store during the day over at one of the dining tables and cooked to order. The flavours were spot on and the bottom of the dumpling is crispy. All in all we finished our food and most impressive is their chilli oil on the table is house made, the umami flavours and the mix of heat is perfect, not too spicy and enhances every dish ever so slightly.

$10 Darawak Laksa Curry noodles is my favorite. The dishes are fast, the ingredients are fresh, and the subway is very convenient.

I'm not one for hyperbole or platitudes, but the pho broth was absolutely outstanding, I drank every drop. A great blend of sweet and salty with a rich base. Good toppings, right amount of noodles, it was amazing. Don't bother with Victoria St, we've got it all here in Koornang Road!

If you like eating traditional Chinese food ,you'll like it here the foods good for busy week day after work dinner or a chill weekend night watching MOVIES at home. My go to is the honey chicken, fish and ginger , veg dumplings ,soup dumplings , beef noodle soup list goes on.

Just got take out here and was pleasantly surprised that it was given with a free tote bag and a complementary rice pudding! Best range of vegan and veg options in the area as well and wonderful variety of food! 10/10 recommend!
