Food & Dining Stores

This offer is limited to the first 100 bookings made online daily. Every kind of cake and tart and mousse you can imagine, and a freezer filled with those one dollar Asian ice creams a bit further along! I was surprised to discover that they’ve upped the ante on their desserts; they were a bit disappointing when I was last here two years ago, but now they’re actually rather pleasant. You actually can’t see the Malaysian dishes, they’re a bit further off to the left. There are a couple curries available, some roti, and nasi lemak.
Flavours were nice but I would have preferred the Hainanese Chicken served at Burwood. I would rather go to those 2 over china bar, even if they are double the price. However, service absolutely discovery bbq sucks in buffets over there even with tipping up front at buffets. Service at Melba and Conservatory is much better since they're not ridiculously understaffed unlike Bacchanal or others.

Whether you're craving the delicious BBQ Roast Pork with Rice, the flavorful Curry Laksa, or the classic Hainanese Chicken Rice, there's something for everyone to enjoy on our scrumptious menu. The main thing I will leave to the owner is if he dose not know how to run China Bar Signature, go to the China Bar at Epping, they are not excellent but at least reasonable and acceptable. Most of the food looked and tasted like it was sitting in the fridge since prior to the current restrictions. There were a number of signs which weren't the dishes that were being served leading to confusion. While there's lots to choose from, everything just didn't seem particularly fresh - either a bit stale or dried up (like it's been sitting the fridge for a long time).
I would rather take my business to the Melba restaurant than the superficial China Bar. There isn’t a huge selection of sushi available because it’s lunch time, just your generic salmon rolls and a couple more. At dinner this area becomes much more exciting, because not only do things like scallop sushi get added to the selection, but this is also where they slice up the fresh sashimi. The fruits are seasonal, with apples, watermelon, oranges, and nectarines on offer. Very nice variety, many dishes to choose from, the buffet was colourful and vibrant. My favourite was a sashimi platter with raw salmon and the Hainan chicken dish was delicious.
It wasnt cheap and especially if you factor in a few beers/drinks on top. The Peking duck was the best thing, while desserts were a huge disappointment. Id say go for it at this price - just dont expect the best quality.

We also have a lovely range of Japanese sake and beer for you to compliment your food, if you're keen to experience Izakaya like they do in Japan. In June 2017 we reported on some changes coming to the inner-west suburb of Burwood. New housing developments were on the cards, and an ambitious developer, Blairgrove Group, told us they were planning to create Burwood Chinatown in the block adjoining the Burwood Hotel. Under a canopy of lanterns you’ll find traditional and modern Chinese snacks, including some special  desserts.
Though i do agree $100pp is prohibitively expensive, thats probably why we only go there for lunch on the entertainment vouchers. They've gotten worse, and the selection of food as a buffet is very limited. For the price, I expected better variety and some seafood, but there was none at all. I wouldn't recommend this place based on my recent visit.

– It tasted like a flattened fish ball that’s been pan-fried, so that’s a win, even if it isn’t otak otak in any way. I didn’t realise until I bit into it that I shouldn’t be eating the leaf it’s wrapped in. Underneath the tender chicken and piece of Chinese sausage was a whole lot of rice, which is a big buffet no-no in my books!
Its offerings include sushi & sashimi, fresh oysters, rich variety of seafood, yum cha, Peking duck, noodle, traditional Asian soups, as well as a variety of assorted favourite Asian desserts. I still can’t decide how sold I am on gourmet buffets. On one hand, the night session at China Bar promises everything from fresh seafood and sashimi to meats grilled on demand, Peking duck and even hot pot. Judging from previous experience, I know that the dinners are definitely worth going to at least once. But on the other hand, a dinner at China Bar is a whopping $69pp on weekends – enough to stuff yourself silly at most one hatted restaurants, and a few two hatted ones too. I’m pretty sure none of those restaurants have a chocolate fountain though.

Of course there’s also your typical sweet and sour pork and honey chicken. I’ll probably be stripped of my foodie status for saying this but, I Love Buffets. To me, the sheer variety and quantity of food available excuses any corners cut in terms of quality (unless if you’re at Smorgy’s; nothing excuses food that bad). Because let’s face it – no one goes to buffets for fine dining; it’s the promise of All You Can Eat that’s luring all the people in.
Though dinner offers the opportunity to take in beautiful night views of city skyline. Entertainment book voucher and red energy member booklet voucher saves me $90 in total over 2 visits. Personally I prefer Melba over Conservatory since I feel the quality of food is far superior.
