MR WONG
Cantonese cuisine made cool. Fabulous colonial chinese decor. This is without doubt, a place to be seen. Head to nearby Palmer & Co. for a drink while you wait for your table. Great late night dining option.

SPICE TEMPLE
Head through the neon-lit door, just underneath Rockpool Restaurant, down the winding stair case and you’ll enter this sexy restaurant and bar. Expect dark lighting and ultra plush decor from Neil Perry’s hidden basement establishment. The modern Chinese food is exceptional in every way. Have a drink at the bar, pre or post your meal, and mingle with the beautiful people.
