Dragon Restaurant on James St Northbridge for sunday morning Dim Sum. Thebest.
In Freo? That is the most westernised Chinese I've ever had. In my life. Ever. Rubbish.

Only on the way out
It's on Marine Tce now, it used to be on Point St. It's been around since the mid-late 90's. Typically of a Fremantle restaraunt, it's been around so long that is has become somewhat of an institution. It has enough regulars (much like Pizza Bella Roma, Sandrino's etc) that they really don't care about doing anything different. The same dishes, with the same half assed service, all day, every day.
A few of my relatives love it and we occassionally have to go there for family get togethers. It always gets good reviews, which I can never understand. Other than the owners I've never seen somebody who looks remotely Chinese eating there.
Quite like the Han Palace in Bennet Street East Perth.
Like the Welcome Inn and The Dragon Palace in Northbridge for Yum Cha.
Anyone been to Marigold in Sydney for Yum Cha?

I work around the cnr from Han Palace, ever been there before but it smells funny to walk past in the morning, kinda rotten. I go to Mai's next door pretty often though for lunch.

Good place for dumplings/Chinese in Sydney is Din Tai Fung @ World Square.

Anyone here from Sydney?
Despite the wacky name, Yummy Happy Chinese BBQ in Melville Plaza off of Leach Hwy is excellent, great dim sum (why else would you go to a Chinese restaurant though?)

The best Chinese food I have had was in China. The worst Chinese food Ive had was also in China though just for a bit of perspective.
It´s really quite amazing what people consider Chinese food these days. When in reality it is nothing more than a sticky sweet amalgamation of westernized concepts of Chinese cuisine.

For that 1980s genuine Aussie Chinese foodie experience, including special pink sauce and ultra big (and heaps cheap) prawn crackers in multiple colours - nothing beats Gar Lok in Mossie Park.

Viet Hoa for the best and cheapest Vietnamese (and Chinese) in the southern hemisphere.

I actually love the food from joy kitchen. Just so tasty and fresh, when you're onto a good thing stick to it.
The old owners went to the Li Do on the opposite side of William - where the Yen Do used to be which was the restaurant that introduced me to Chinese food (or what I understood at the time to be chinese food Sweet & Sour Pork FTW!).
Ha ha.... That was the other one that came to mind
Yeah, used to be the shiz, but changed owners and went south, though do you remember the reference in that rap song 'i love fridays' from Matty ?something? "we go to the viet hoa, where the waitresses are hot and you don't pay a lot..". Probably the only asian restaurant that has had national airplay.

All of them. It's sort of like a woman for me, there has never been a curry I didn't fancy.
Without wanting to hijack the thread, there's an Indian place on Nth Lake road near Bibra Lake which isn't too bad. Never had propper feast there, just lazy/hangover take away, but still.
Yeah, lots of people love Joy Kitchen. Like I said, it's an institution. I can't understand it personally, but as always wtih food, it's very much each to their own.
If I do Chinese I generally just stick with dumplings, unless there is something completely ridiculous on the menu that I just need to try. Jelly fish with duck? Sold.
If I'm in the mood for some Asian food, I generally just make it myself or get the missus onto it. The local Chinese restaurant never gets a look in and if I'm travelling further than 10 minutes, the extra effort means I'm going for a cuisine I prefer (Vietnamese, Indian or Thai).
