I can only comment on takeaway service, as I haven't dined in at Old Peking yet, but it's probably…read moreon the cards for the future as you can see I'm kind of in love. Chinese takeaway, hey? It's rare that I get a real craving for Chinese. I think the last time I ate it was in yum cha form a few years ago, and prior to that it was likely at my mum's place out in the country where Chinese is about the only "nice" takeaway food you can get. But for some reason a few weeks ago I was exhausted and desperate for some sweet and sour pork. I remembered a colleague giving a good review for Old Peking in passing, and so I crossed my fingers and ordered the classics: the pork I was craving, chicken with cashew nuts, and special fried rice. The service was quick and friendly and a bag of prawn crackers was thrown in as thanks. I got home, doled a bit of everything into a big ol' bowl, and proceded to EAT SOME OF THE BEST CHINESE I'VE HAD IN MY LIFE. The rice was fine--it had all the bits in it to make it special and even had some sauce drizzled on top--but the meat dishes were where it was at. Fresh vegetables just past crunch factor, delicious meat, and just enough sauce (nothing was swimming therefore nothing was soggy, but enough for the rice to soak up a bit of the flavour). Honestly, the vegies were the highlight for me. I hunted the last bits of carrots and broccoli from the chicken dish, I wept when the onion was finished in the pork dish. I've been back twice since. I'll be back twice as often before the year's out. I'm hooked! Plus the food is always ready SO QUICKLY (10-15mins), the staff are lovely, and the takeaway boxes come with hand-drawn smiley faces on them to accompany the descriptions. I'm not sure when I last saw food so happy to see me. Old Peking, you are my jam. Thank you for reminding me that takeaway Chinese is totally an option always worth considering. See you again soon. xoxo

The Chinese staffs from the restaurant were friendly and accomodating. The menu items were not filled with dazzling Michelin Star food but normal mundane Chinese food dishes. However on first sight and without pictures of the dishes, the prices looks steep. But when then dishes were served, it will justify itself. The dishes are of big serving and quality stuffs. With just me and my wife having dinner, I decided to be conservative and ordered 3 dishes worrying that the serving would be huge. We ordered the Fried Pork in Sweet and Sour Sauce, Wanton Soup and an Egg Omelette with King Prawns. The dishes did not disappoint. The Egg Omelette with King Prawns had really many prawns and they were big and fresh! The Egg Omelette was also done in a very different way this dish is normally prepared as in they served it with a sauce that tasted oyster sauce to me. The combination was just great as the normally oily egg omelette has blended beautifully with the sauce and made it a nice combination with white steamy rice! The Fried Pork in Sweet and Sour Sauce was also done and served exquisitely in high class restaurants and the serving seems to be for 3 person. The pork was marinated and prepared well in that there was not much "porky" smell if you understand me. The last dish was the Wanton Soup and there was no prawn in it but just marinated mince pork. The dish was ok but had a strong scent of sesame which might be another diner's bane. Oh Yeah! The rice serving (served in a pot) can be refilled a second time on the house by a third serving would be at a charge. I had a pretty sumptuous Chinese food fare here that beckons me to try them again for other dishes when my cravings run me down. I would definitely recommend them to other diners.
