Great Century Restaurant - Yum Cha

Located opposite Bankstown Sports Club.

Yum Cha, the only one i've been to in many years.
For those that don't know, Yum Cha is.. well.. you sit at your table, you don't order food. Someone will bring a cart around and show you the dishes they got, and if you like the look of it they put it on your table.

This place gets packed, i mean, i'm suprised we ever gets seats, must be cause we're white.. sorta.
If you love prawns, this is the place for you. All the good dishes have prawns in em.

I give them a 8/10

The seafood is great, but they're other servings are lacking, they really do need more chicken/beef dishes.
A lot of the people serving our food couldn't speak english, which is really not helpful when deciding what food to eat.

Taste of Thai - Bankstown

Located Between Pub and Arab Bank, oppposite Thai Hutt

So this is a new one that just opened up, it also happens to be opposite a previous favourite of mine, the Thai Hutt.

From the overall experience i would rate this restaurant 4/10

I've highlighted "overall" because, hey, 4/10 isn't good, but that doesn't mean i wouldn't recommend it. I do recommend it, see below.

The Bad

• Rickity/wobbily tables. I want to eat, not balance my plate or worry about my drink spilling all over the place.
• Mains, arn't that great. When i had a rice noodle dish i compared it to being very similar to one of those jarred sauces, canton or maggi.

The Good

• Service is very quick
• The entrée's are EXCELLENT. These are the reason why i would recommend it to people.
  So to begin with, in this restaurant entrées are ordered on single servings. For example, for chicken satay sticks, you order one, or i can order just 1 dim sim (chicken dim sims fyi).

Highlights

• Chicken Dim Sims
• Prawn thingos (Batterered prawns + sweet sauce) 10/10
  
• Chicken Satay

Prices are fairly good, a little cheaper than Thai Hutt.

What we've been doing is getting entrées from Taste of Thai and getting our mains from Thai Hutt.
