Have you tried the Satay Hut on South Bank? We went there on our last night in Brisbane, food was to die for.

Try a Japanese curry, down here in Melbourne I've found that it's the same sauce as the UK chinese curry. The actual chinese curries here tend to have a watery, bland sauce.

What do you class as a proper Chinese curry?
The only spicey Chinese food I ate was Sichuan style. Are you referring to a British Chinese curry stylie?

At least its meat. I had one take away from the local chinese here and i was eating what i thought was a chewy piece of chicken but the more I chewed the stranger the texture became. When I took it out of my mouth I realised id been chewing a band aid, it was still in the shape of someones fingure. god I still feel sick thinking about it. But it hasn`t detered me my quest for good curry will go on

Chinese is not that good. Try Thai. Far superior.IMHO

Agh yes, the infamous Brit Chinease curry. I've hankered after it it often on a Friday night here!!!!

Anyone know any good Chinease curry places in Melbourne? I don't want Vietnamese,Thai,Malaysian or Indian - just a plain old Brit style chinease curry!

Anyone??

I"ve traveled all over, and only found them in the UK. Originally thought it was a Cantonese thing, so would find one in Hong Kong but didn't. Have to agree that a Japanese one would be close.

When ever I'm back, Chinese curry and chips!... yum!
