Great food and good service made our first visit to China Town Restaurant a pleasure. Our only…read moregripe is the size of the restaurant is on the small size, which means small, cafe-style tables have been used. The tables are too small to accommodate the plates, glasses, etc, which made juggling our meals a little awkward. The restaurant is not licensed but there are two bottle shops close by, from where you can BYO. It's great to know we have quality Chinese food at our local shopping centre.

Is it just me or is Chinese food having a bit of a renaissance these days? This gem,…read morewell-frequented by locals - as well as visiting politicians, if you don't mind - is a shining example of this new found affection for Chinese that goes a bit beyond the basics of just chicken and cashew and beef and black bean. You will still find the classics on the back page of its plentiful menu, but the true star dishes are on the front - the Yin Tai Chicken, the crispy fish, the crab entree - my mouth is watering just thinking about it. It's become a family regular and somehow we can always get a table, despite it being a popular restaurant that is still quite intimate. The service is friendly and familiar, and helpfully the restaurant is BYO (there's a bottle shop around the corner).

One of my favourite restaurants in Canberra has long been the Chairman and Yip and on our recent…read moretrip I was a little disconcerted to see it was no longer at its Bunda Street address - I found later it had moved to new digs in Barton - and in its place is Tasting China. Well we were there, so in we went.... Still a very elegant and inviting place -dark wood, a splash of colour around, comfortable seating, moody lighting - and the menu was appealing. A good range of dishes representing the cuisines of Canton, Sichaun and Shanghai. The wine list is well put together, with a fine selection of regions and varieties, although somewhat limited where "by the glass" is concerned. But a bottle of Geoff Merrill's Grenache rosé suited us just fine! To the food - we began with Zhong dumplings - gelatinous and tender dumplings filled with a mix of chopped boiled prawns and ginger, and doused with a mix of soy and garlic and chilli oil. These were simply outstanding - among the best dumplings we have eaten - the filling was juicy and aromatic, full of warm flavours and the companion sauces and oils a wonderful boost. Our second starter, sea scallops with sugar snap peas, sesame oil and ginger sauce, was another mouth-watering experience - the scallops were plump and luscious, so very lightly cooked, a scatter of shredded ginger added warmth and spice, while the snappy peas crunched and delighted. Stunning. Warned of the size of the mains by our waiter, we ordered only one - a very wise move - and our Sichuan Rock Ling in hot chilli oil arrived - a massive bowl of soup filled with batons of succulent fish, and well stocked with Sichuan pepper, numbing the lips and delighting the palate. A bowl of steamed rice helped soak up the soup. This was a very spicy and fitting conclusion to a brilliant lunch. I have to say Tasting China is a more than worthy tenant of the old Chairman site - excellent food, great waiters, very good beverage list, welcoming décor - it will be on my must visit restaurants for future trips to Canberra. We loved it.... Absolutely recommended!!

I ordered a small rice with beef and a serve of spring rolls, and both were honestly top quality. Huge chunks of meat, great portion sizes, and everything was fresh and hot. The only downside for me was the price.. $14 for a small rice and $10 for spring rolls felt a bit steep for a casual meal. That said, you definitely get what you pay for. If it were just a little more affordable, I'd probably be in there every day! Still, if you're after proper Chinese food in Batemans Bay that actually tastes like something, it's well worth a try.
