You can choose from Eateries. Showcasing Different Types of Dishes from All Over Asia.nnWhenever I’m in Sydney. I make sure to visit Chinatown

Chinatown Sydney is along the Dixon street. We happen to be on the Friday Dixon street market. They have different varity of food and the Emperor's Garden Cakes and Bakery, Taiwanese restaurant is still there after all these years.nnWe were there for a couple of day to tried out the food.

Chinatown Sydney is my go-to when I want the city to feel alive in the best possible way. The approach along Dixon Street always flips a switch. Red gates, strings of lanterns, the hiss of woks from open doorways, and the smell of roast duck and star anise drifting out to the footpath. I like to start at the gates and wander slowly past the bakeries that pile trays with egg tarts and pineapple buns, then cut down into a food court where every stall seems to have a queue and a signature dish. One shop is steaming baskets of pork and prawn siu mai, the next is hand pulling noodles that slap the counter, and a few steps later someone is lifting a golden skewer of cumin lamb from the grill. Bubble tea shops are everywhere and the staff do not blink if you ask for half sugar or no ice. It is easy to graze for an hour without ever sitting down.nnNight is when the area really shines. Fairy lights reflect in restaurant windows, outdoor tables fill, and the Friday markets add a street party mood with stalls selling skewers, buns, and snacks you promise to save for later but end up eating on the spot. Service is brisk and friendly in most places, prices range from student cheap to special night out, and there is always a dessert bar within a block if you need shaved ice or black sesame soup to finish. If crowds are not your thing, aim for late afternoon when the footpaths are still calm.nnPractical tips help. The light rail stop at Chinatown drops you right at the action, and Town Hall or Central are an easy walk. Bring a small tote, carry water, and wear flat shoes because you will detour more than you planned. Many spots take cards, though a few still prefer cash. If you want a Sydney snapshot that tastes as good as it looks, Chinatown delivers every time.

Huge selection of authentic Chinese food and deserts. A must try is the emperers cream puffs. Super cheap worth wait. Theres always a line up but it moves quick.

We visited Chinatown for the Neon Playground. What a vibe! We had a great time with so much food, live music and entertainment. Definitely worth the trip into the city.
