  • EmblaCBD

    “Embla because chef Dave Verheul's menu always surprises. Last time I was there, I had the most intriguing grilled prawns.”

  • Flower DrumCBD

    “Flower Drum always, because it has the best Cantonese food in town. Clean flavours featuring some of our best ingredients, such as pearl meat, cooked to perfection. I also love the seafood soup dumplings, served in an exquisite broth.”
