This is a tiny hidden gem of a restaurant run by a small family. Very authentic Malaysian ChaoZhou food, with a lot of off-menu options that need to be pre-ordered so they can source produce. Tastes like home! Be patient as they have very few staff. The food is worth it and they are all lovely. Some special dishes: oyster omelette, pork stomach soup, and the braised duck platter are really nice!
Authentic Chaozhou cuisine. Pork stomach soup is my favourite, no wonder everyone orders it. And I like the braised pork tongue and duck leg platter, best of the ones I tasted before.
Heart of Teochew Homecooking Surprising find in the heart of Balwyn North - an authentic Malaysian/Teochew eatery run by sisters and assisted by one of their daughters on service. Taste-wise, this reminds me of what my in-laws used to cook and serve - unpretentious soul nourishing fare. Not all dishes were hits though - the highly recommended pig stomach pepper soup was underwhelming. Stock lacked body and pepper though the offal was cleaned and cooked perfectly. The or chien oyster omelette was flat-pan style and pricey, in my opinion, at $25. Things looked up when the braised duck platter with tofu and pig intestines arrived. Braised expertly with a light hand on the soya - letting the lean duck meat and aromatics sing on the tongue. Probably the best version we’ve had outside of a private kitchen offering. The winners for us were the prawn rolls hae chor and mixed veg platter more of that later. Prawn rolls were exceptional - fresh prawn, pork, water chestnuts, yam and five spice rolled and fried in bean curd skin. The fresh ingredients could all be tasted distinctly yet went together like fireworks. Their version is lighter on the yam filling which I thought really let the prawns shine. Would've been nice to have been accompanied with a sweet sauce dip. The highlight was *surprise* the mixed veg platter. It didn’t look like much but man, this is the dish that I’d really miss on cold nights. Organic caulilini expertly tossed with preserved napa cabbage for that fermented body and oomph, plus tomatoes for that sweet tart umami. This on hot white rice is a last meal candidate and absolutely what I’d liked to have opened this meal with. What a stunner. Service was understandably slow just cook and daughter - we even had to wait to pay. That said, this eatery deserves love for what it does. Be kind. Will definitely be back to try the rest of their offerings soon.
Second to none Chaozhou cuisine!! The best and authentic Chaozhou dishes Chaozhou and Shantou Region you can have in Melbourne! The Chaozhou cuisine is famous for its natural, seasonal and light flavour by using the freshest and high quality ingredients. A true healthy gourmet food. Here, you can also appreciate the good collection of beautiful Gongfu tea sets while you enjoy the delicious food. The Gongfu tea is known as the "espresso" of Chinese teas, an unique part of the Chaozhou culture and cuisine. A neighbourhood environment that makes you feel welcomed and enjoyable. Will definitely come back.
I am so impressed with every single dish! Great owner, we ordered about 5 dishes for two of us, she came out and suggested us considering ordering one less dish, otherwise we wont be able to finish it. She was def right, we completely smashed all the rest of dish, thanks to my friend's recommendation. HIDDEN Gem it is
hidden gem in balwyn - authentic teochew chiu chow cuisine in melb. most of the seafood dishes and signature dishes are off-menu though so have to do your research and pre-order.
Can't believe I've found authentic teochew food in Melbourne! It was a quiet Friday lunch time but auntie was cooking and serving all by herself. Food took a little long but it was all worth it! We are so impressed with everything we ate that we also took away food for dinner! Their braised platter is a definite must try!
one of the very best localized Chinese food Chaoshan cuisine Melbourne has to offer, run by one of the nicest ladies around, Aunty Ruth. love coming in for a quick lunch or a full blown out dinner with friends, all of whom have always only had rave reviews about the food. always order the marinated platter, the fried prawn rolls minced prawns pork and chestnuts and the best oyster omelette Melbourne has to offer. then top it up with whatever Aunty Ruth has on offer for the day, usually made with the freshest ingredients that she personally buys in the mornings. hot tip: befriend Aunty Ruth and get access to all the delightful off menu items.
Hidden gem! Very authentic. Will definitely be back
Lovely secret menu. Delicious food.Food: 5/5
