Chinese cuisine from across all of Parramatta

There's hardly a town in Australia that isn't home to a Chinese restaurant. In fact, it was one of the first foreign cuisines to take a hold here, when thousands of Chinese workers travelled to Australia during the 19th century. Over 100 years later, a wander through Parramatta provides plenty of opportunities to sample an array of Chinese delicacies. 

Taste Gallery

Landing in Parramatta in 2012, Taste Gallery specialises in Shanghai Szechwan cuisine. That means big, brave, spicy flavours, featuring lots of garlic, chilli and, of course, Szechwan pepper. Among the chef's recommendations are liquor-soaked chicken, deep-fried whole barramundi with sweet and sour sauce and a hot pot filled with seafood egg dumplings. All dumplings and noodles are handmade and cooked to order. Lunchtime specials, which start at $8.80, are good value.
