Authentic Malaysian wok dishes, banquet-ready round tables, and dedicated gluten-free options in Winthrop

  • Dedicated Gluten-Free Accommodation

    A dedicated gluten-free menu ensures diners with coeliac requirements can safely enjoy traditional Chinese dishes cooked fresh to order.

    One thing that stands out is they have an excellent gluten free menu and that is why our friend loves meeting us there, as she has a Coeliac condition.

  • Tailored Allergy Modifications

    Guests with specific allergies receive attentive care, from ingredient warnings to bespoke modifications without sauce compromise.

    My dad is allergic to shellfish and oyster sauce and she's willing to modify the dish to exclude the sauce. She even warned my dad that the chilli he ordered contains oyster sauce which I highly appreciate.

  • Malaysian Hokkien Mee with Pork Lard

    Noodle specialties like Malaysian Hokkien mee are wok-tossed with generous crispy pork lard to capture smoky wok hei.

    I also loved the Hokkien Mee with Pork Lard as it tasted like what I would eat in Malaysia and the amount of pork lard was very generous.

  • Spacious Round Banquet Tables

    The dining room features 13-seat round banquet tables suited for multi-generational family reunions and group banquets.

    Lunch with a big group today. Just realised the 13 seats round table reminds me of King Arthur and his 12 Knights of the round table.
