Can't leave us hanging like that.

Here you go

For anyone in the area, the food isn't 100% authentic, but pretty solid IMO

Worth noting, their dine-in menu is more expensive

damn assuming the portion sizes weren't bad that's a steal.

They fill up the standard container. Kids had pad-thai and had leftover. I had curry, and maybe I would have likes a bit more protein, it filled me up. Wife had a stir fry with seafood, and there was a surprising amount of prawns (froze sure, but still).

Prices on par with local joints too. I just like the Springs one cause it's so much cheaper when doing takeaway. Probably wouldn't pay their dine-in prices, as we have some better options.

The funny thing is no one comes to Melton for their food except for this guy. Hahaha.

I love how CS has Gotham Doughnuts now. Very dangerous.

[–] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 2 points 10 months ago

The amount of 'bad' food joints (albeit delicious) in CS is getting out of hand.

A few decent Indian places too

The pricing is pretty cheap, even I’d give it a shot if I was down that way.
