Salt and pepper calamari perfection. Dont let the shopfront fool you! This place has been the bees knees for years with good reason.

We had heard the food was good but we've heard that before and have yet to find a decent Chinese place in Darwin that doesn't leave us with that MSG 'drier than the dry season' feeling.

With nothing short of great excitement we took a selection of items off the menu home only to find that it was essentially inedible.... More
