    This is a great location for views of the city whilst enjoying some of the best chinese food I have tried. The tempura fried soft crab was to die for!

    Surrounded by the old architecture of Melbourne and overshadowed by the modern designs of the Rialto and Eureka Towers gives you the impression that you've found a hidden oasis above the hustle of the busy CBD below!

    Great friendly staff and a definite friday night party atmosphere, but good for a light lunch too. Generally an all round funky place!

    The food here is okay. I went to a birthday here, and the wouldn't let us light any candles! Which was quite unfortunate. And they didn't let us stay long in there either.

    This Canto-pop-soundtracked cafe/bar has colonised some excellent real estate.

    A favourite hang-out for RMIT's Asian student population, this Canto-pop-soundtracked cafe/bar has colonised some excellent real estate near the old Village cinema. Up a flight of stairs, Red Silks has an open kitchen, modular furniture and a huge balcony overlooking Bourke Street where gas heaters keep things cranking even in the depths of winter. There's a decent pan-Asian menu that competes with Chinatown in terms of breadth and value. So do the inflation-defying bottled local and imported beers and a kitsch-splendid list of luridly coloured cocktails direct from the 1970s.
