Dancing Wok - Berwick

We had three noodle dishes for take away from this inexpensive eatery yesterday : Fried Kwai Teow (thick rice noodles with BBQ pork, shrimp and bean sprout, and sweet soy sauce (No. 6 on its menu); Teriyaki Chicken with udon noodles (No. 7); and Curry Chicken with Vermicelli (No. 17). The total cost came to $31.50 only. All three dishes were delicious and not oily, with lots of shredded vegetables. What we like in particular is that Dancing Wok use chicken thigh meat, which were much more tender and succulent. Its owner-cum-chef Mr Wong was very friendly. Customers are advised to phone in to place the order first, as it could be busy during peak meal hours. Except Sunday when it opens after 5 pm, it is open 7 days from 11 am till 9.30 pm (with Fri and Sat until 10 pm). Amply parking space outside. See photos for its menu and promotion leaflet.

When I arrived at the restaurant, the chef was outside smoking. He came back in with a lit cigarette and didn't wash his hands. I should have left at that point. I ordered chicken and vegetables with cashew nuts added for an extra $2.50. Unfortunately, the cashew nuts tasted stale, indicating they may have been expired. The rest of the meal was mediocre at best.

We were very satisfied with our meal from Dancing Wok. We chose to get takeout, but they do offer some minimal café-style seating. Our dinner included 2 orders of pork dumplings, which were steamed. We usually prefer fried dumplings, but these were still very delicious! The fried rice was the best I've had in this area, very tasty. The hot noodles with chicken were a bit bland for my taste, I would have liked it to be a little spicier, but it was still good. The chicken omelette was a generous portion and quite delicious. Overall, it was a tasty and satisfactory meal, and we will definitely go back again.

You can expect freshly cooked food and friendly service with a smile at this restaurant. The prices are good and the food is delicious. You won't have to wait long for your meal.
