Specializing in small plates, their menu is…More »
5. China Cloud
China Cloud. So appropriately named, so secretive.
An auspicious black doorway, with no signage but only an image of a cloud. Open the door and you will find yourself heading up a long narrow staircase, one of those where you don't know where you…More »

For $7.5, you can choose two 'BBQ' items-BBQ pork, roast duck, roast pork, and soya chicken served on rice. It evens comes with soup or pop.
