Shanghai Memory - Burwood

I *love* this place! Forget the fancy pants places in the city, this is the real deal.

I have been three time and each time it has blown my friends and I away with how cheap it is to eat so well here.

When I entered this restaurant, it has no customer and I thought as I am the only customer, I would get my food very fast. Unfortunately, I need to wait my take away food (stir fry noodle with meat veggies for at least minutes. The food itself was quite nice and very generous in serving. I will come back again but when I am not in a rush for future.

Ordered dishes, cold chilli chicken: the chicken with peanut on top was tasty but the cucumber soaked in unfavoured chilli oil was very unpleasant Xiao long bao had odd shape and thick skin. Pretty sure they came out from the packet in the frozen aisle of the Asian grocery clams stirred in chilli bean sauce was very enjoyable. clams were fresh, not the usual chilli sauce taste and it was very tasty. They will do better if they get rid of the items on the menu that are there just for the sake of having more choices.

Had my meal here tonight, I ordered Xiao long Bao, Drunken chicken, beef noodles and also fried noodles. The food was unfresh, the pork tasted weird, chicken tasted strange and also the beef noodles is the hot pot beef just boiled and put on top of the noodles and putting few scoops of spice of Lao Gan Ma. Waiting period was 45 mins for the dishes and we were also allocated to a two people seat where people would hang around to pay and having their butts facing us when we are eating, don't really understand why does 6 people have to hang around for paying for one table when there is a table right next to them. It was just uncomfortable and I really do not recommend it...
