It took a while for Golden Lane to find their groove but I'm pleased to say they did. Customer service was excellent, the yum cha offerings were tasty, the interior is clean and pleasant. This place leans to the experienced yum cha eater - if you're new make sure you bring someone who knows what they are doing. The rolled noodles with bbq pork were divine. Well worth trying.
We've been to Golden Lane for yum cha a number of times and also for a wedding dinner, but never for their regular dinner. This time we came because wifey went for yum cha with a friend, and discovered a promotion where whatever you spend on yum cha that day will be offset against your dinner bill that night!
And so our family dinner that cost about $2 out of pocket:
* Z1 pork rib in Peking sauce, $23.80
* S15 crab meat with bean curd, $23.80
* F12 dry fried beef and green vegetable with hofen, $18.80
* plus a bowl of steamed rice, $2
The pork was my dish of the night - solid and well executed. The crab meat tofu was a little puzzling because we couldn't see or taste the crab meat, though a waiter assured us it's in the sauce. The beef hor fun was overall fairly good, but would be better with a touch more sauce. Also some of the beef was hard to bite through, so somewhat hit and miss on that one.
Not sure how long this promotion is going for but possibly every Thursday until further notice. I found a post on their FB page from 1 Nov with the details (in Chinese). Best check with the venue if you're intending to claim the promo.
Finally had some proper Yum Cha in Brisbane and finally had a proper sit down with some like minded bloggers. First thing…That menu, wow did it change visually.I love the new look, and that they made it more simplified 😊. First, lets talk about the duck. That beautiful Peking Duck. It arrives to your table… they slice it… and then plate it for you.Skin super crispy and easily can take down several of these pancakes 🤤.
