    Everything was amazing, we have the “Let our chef surprise you + wine. Everything was really good until the butterflied whiting. There were so many bones and scales on the fish, it was just annoying more than anything. That is my only criticism, everything else was perfect. Will dine again.

    Suzanne and Teddy are fantastic hosts as always! We were in one of the private rooms and 8 of us thoroughly enjoyed every single dish of the Peking Duck Banquet for my Son's 13th Birthday. The food is up there with flavour and portion size and is as good or better than any major capital City in Australia. Have also had the salt and pepper mud crab and it's the best I've ever had. Well done Suzanne and Teddy for putting the GC on the map for brilliant Chinese food. cheers Matt
