Secret Kitchen

The restaurant specialises in Cantonese cuisine – all of the classic dim sum dishes are represented here. You’ll also find peking duck pancakes and seafood in XO sauce. Fried rice comes in an omelette pouch; tear it open to reveal school prawns sitting on top. For dessert there are steamed buns decorated like piglets and filled with sweet red bean paste.

Secret Kitchen (which also has locations in Doncaster and Glen Waverley) is part of the China Bar Group, which operates China Bar, Wonton House, Ramen Bankara and Dessert Story.
