Just seeing the beautiful restaurant and lanterns, we were very nearly tempted to abandon our yum cha dreams altogether for a taste of Greece! But I'm glad we didn't because now thanks to your post I know what to order! (and the pork buns at Sky Phoenix were absolutely heavenly). Thanks for reviewing! :)Cappucinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15228297967788121316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256175729305789814.post-53481091573062807102011-09-04T19:43:12.055+10:002011-09-04T19:43:12.055+10:00To the two Anonymous',

We'll keep our fingers cross for the pork belly baklava.<br /><br />Hi chopinand, when you work in the city, it's much easier to visit the old/new favourites.<br /><br />Hey Tina, get there early, as it gets quite busy, as expected I guess :)<br /><br />Hi Lucy, the ceiling is such an elegant feature. Croquettes in our books are a must try.<br /><br />Hello excusemewaiter, just opened on the 15th last Monday, it's on level 6 as oppose to level 5, and Spiedo and Chat Thai are both up there too, both newish as well. It's from the same people as Perama in Petersham, it's their new restaurant, that's why there are so many Perama references.Dumpling Girlhttp://www.dumplinggirlandcheesecakeboy.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256175729305789814.post-81020765606638240482011-08-22T23:41:43.170+10:002011-08-22T23:41:43.170+10:00is this a new restaurant?
