Head over to North Ryde and indulge in a sensory feast at Open Kitchen Yum Cha restaurant and bar at the Macquarie Centre just off the Hills Motorway. Moody sophistication resonates throughout this classy venue with intricately patterned tiles and rich timber features softly illuminated underneath high ceilings, suited to ambient lunches or an intimate evening for two. Encased in glass within view for diners, a lively kitchen produces much more than yum cha dishes; traditional inspired flavours are recreated to mouth-watering standards and presented with artistic flair. While refreshing with a signature cocktail, order a selection of dishes such as salted egg yolk custard buns, stir fried noodles with prawns, dried shrimp and shallots and pickled pumpkin with passionfruit vinegar.
