David’s Chinese Restaurant

Last week was my monthly book club meet up, and we go to dinner at a restaurant in the CBD on the third Wednesday of each month.

This month, we chose David’s Chinese Restaurant in Elizabeth Street.

I’ve been there before and was impressed, so I was more than happy to go back. Last time we went we had one of their banquet meals, which was delicious, reasonably priced and plentiful.

This time, I had hot and sour soup as a starter, and it was really delicious, and had real prawns in it, which you don’t often find in hot sour soup in Australia. For main course I had steamed whole flounder with shredded pork and Chinese mushrooms, and steamed rice. The flounder dish was HUGE. There was no way I could make my way through all of that. Really delicious too, and steamed to perfection.

Followed by the old traditional fried ice-cream for dessert (which isn’t even Chinese really, but boy it’s good!) and a coffee.

David’s is a really good quality Chinese restaurant, with beautiful fresh food, excellent service and a lovely setting. It’s not my favourite Chinese restaurant in Brisbane (I’ll blog about that one another time), but it’s up in the top 5.
