Dear Adam,

Thank you for your marvellous cooking and hospitality my wife and I have eaten at many Asian restaurants around the country, and particularly in Melbourne.

Melbourne is regarded as the eat out capital of the world and has chef's of the highest quality. I must say though, that the meals here at 'Adams Oriental Restaurant' tops them all!

The presentation is magnificent and the flavours equal it. N*33 is even better than imagined. N*64 is amazing. The beef is so tender, the aroma does not fully alert you to the mulitude of subtle flavours that await you.

All the surries are perfection! Again subtue and delicate rather than overpowering.

We look forward to returning to Brisbane and savouring your cuisine again soon.

Regards,

Lulu D. for

Charles and Annie

P.S The staff are exceptional, the atmosphere so gentle and welcoming. Thank you once again. (lulu - August, 2009)
