Rice Queen Oriental Diner & Bar, Fitzroy

One of my friend’s were getting married and she wanted to celebrate by having a lovely dinner at Rice Queen. Rice Queen was also a bar and it was vibrant and loud! Yes, it was so loud that I could hardly hear the person next to me. Anywho, we sat down and we were all going to have the Banquet C which costs $44 per person. Since there was just so many food and it was a touch dark so excuse the poor quality of the photos.

The steam pork and prawn dumplings were flavoursome but the skin was a touch on the tough side and was a touch dry.

The pulled pork belly banh mi was AMAZEBALL! It was full of flavour, a touch on the spicy side and was just awesome! I really REALLY liked this!

I’m not a huge lamb fan but I didn’t mind this.Yes it did have a lamb smell but it was quite aromatic.

We also tried the vegetable curry and found it a bit disappointing. I expected a punch of flavour but all we got was a whisper of flavour.

Rice Queen is a lively place and a great place for drinks with your mates. However, for dinner I would give it a miss. I wasn’t a fan of the food and it was way too loud to have a nice dinner. Sorry Rice Queen.
