Modern Asian$$

This sprawling two-storey pan-Asian diner takes much of its inspiration from Taiwan, Hong Kong and Korean cuisine. The best way to experience it is with one of the restaurant’s banquet menus. They might include dishes such as sweetcorn and coriander dumplings, chilli buttermilk fried chicken wings, and Sichuan-style braised lamb with eggplant and steamed bread. If you’re after something more European in style, try La Lune Wine Co next door.

Good to know: The $65 banquet option perfect for a pre-theatre dinner. Just let the waitstaff know you have a show to catch.
