Sung's Kitchen 宋家私房菜 ★★★ $$$

Peking Pork Spare Ribs @ $18.80 AUD

Had a hectic week of project so decided to indulge myself with some good Chinese food. It's hard to find good Chinese food in Melbourne and I would say this is one of the pretty decent ones.

Even though the area outside the restaurant may seem quiet, but its a busy crowd inside.
Peking Pork Spare Ribs @ $18.80 AUD
Was deciding on Hunan Pork Spare Ribs or this one, but my friend decided to choose this one. Before this dish came, the Hunan Ribs was on another table. It smelled so fragrant that we had doubts on our choice. We were right. Nothing special about this dish. Wok sauteed with Mandarin Sauce. Pretty decent with a Mandarin based sauce but was looking for something heavier in taste.
Minister Spicy Chicken Ribs @ $17.80 AUD
One of their best dishes. It was lightly battered and wok tossed with Ginger Soy and Spicy Sauce. Chinese cooking emphasize a lot on the "Wok Hei". This one had it but still missing in fragrance.
Bean Curd with Salted Duck Yolk @ $17.80 AUD
Deep fried Bean Curd coated with Duck Egg Yolk and Spring Onion. Lacking in taste as I was expecting something saltier. Had better ones in Malaysia.
Chinese Cabbage with Shrimps, Salted Pork and Tofu in Claypot @ $19 AUD
Would say its our worst choice but on the bright side, something clearer and lighter in taste.
Scramble Egg White with Fresh Crab Meat @ $28 AUD
Best dish of the night!! Looked much better before the Egg was mixed but the waiter was too efficient that I missed my chance taking a better picture. They were generous with the amount of Crab Meat. Would like to emphasize that its not Crab Stick. Perfectly cooked dish with the right amount of meat and egg. 

Verdict
Food: 7.5 ( Decent Chinese food that you can find in Melbourne)
Service: 6.5 ( Service is great when it is less crowded. May seem impolite when crowded as they are trying to rush things)
Ambiance: 6
Overall: 8 ( Would definitely go again, there are some good dishes which are worth trying)

Price: $15-$28 AUD per main
