Comments on: Tea Inn Taiwanese Fast Food & Tea House at Kingsford http://www.notquitenigella.com/2008/05/24/tea-inn-taiwanese-fast-food-tea-house-at-kingsford/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

I love Taiwanese food and had it many times when I was living in China and this is nothing like Taiwanese. In fact apart from the bubble tea( and the mention of Lu Rou Fan) it was less than ordinary and dirty, and the service was really second rate. I am actually really concerned that we will get food poisoning, really bad Lorraine, suggest you remove it from your list. Mother Chu's is far far superior went here tonight and it was pretty nasty acutally. I love Taiwanese food and had it many times when I was living in China and this is nothing like Taiwanese.

I'm always on the lookout for places to eat at :) Hi Kyla-That would be cool! Good to know that we share the same palette :D Hi Jelenie-Thanks for the recommendation!

One of the best Thais ever. My bf and I go almost every week without fail and we've been going for 2 years (ever since our late uni days). :) If you’re in Kingsford often, try In Chan Thai (2 mins. walk from Tea Inn)!

I hate waiting for tables so I'll be sure to get there early. Just need to find time to get there! :lol: Hi SydneyGal-OK excellent thanks for the tips!

Can be a handy distraction for children though. Zenya only opened a few months ago and already it's gotten to the state that people are waiting for them to open at 6pm (on Saturdays at least) and waiting for tables by 7:00pm.

Hi popeye-It's funny how some unis have different sorts of food around then. The theme around UNSW is definitely Indonesian :) My husband loves those bubble tea drinks too! Hi Zam-Never fear NQN will adhere to your request! :D Actually I am housesitting at the moment so I am planning to do more Eastern Suburbs places while I am in the area ;) Hi SydneyGal-Yes I had a chuckle at the "fast food" -it was fast but it was pretty far away from McDonalds. Thanks so much for the recommendation! So which one is your table so I will not sit there? ;) I always love a crowded place, it speaks volumes about the food! Hi grace-you can find it at most asian grocery stores. I love it but some people find it a bit odd. Do you like sweet beans or asian sweets? If you do then you'll like it, if not, you might be a bit bewildered at it's appeal :) I did make it, thanks for asking! Because I cannot sacrifice my hair for food. Bad hair=bad day :lol: Hi Maria-Sa Cha Beef was a real please everyone kind of dish. Oh yes I loathe the 90% batter 10% meat. I always think that is a sign of a place that cuts corners. They didn't seem to cut corners with other things though which was a bit baffling. Hmmm you have an eagle eye, I didn't even notice that-although the size of the menu had me a bit stunned! I did, thankyou very much! :D Hi Y-Yep it’s true, you could easily eat out every night for weeks and not repeat the experience nor dent the wallet.

Economical dining! I hope you enjoyed the beauty appointment afterwards :-) I think I’d really enjoy that Sa Cha Beef – the meat is even tender in appearance.. it’s what I’m in the mood for I think :)
