Review: Beijing House



Weekends and yum cha go together like peas and carrots for Miss Eat Me Brisbane. This is our second visit to Beijing house for yum cha and I have concluded that it is the leading destination for yum cha in Brisbane and the Fortitude Valley. Located centrally in the upper Queen Street Mall, Beijing house is the perfect destination for weekend feasting, conveninently you can shop with your tummy full of goodness after.

Our yum cha staples and benchmarks are as follows, prawn and coriander rolls, scallop dumplings, bbq pork rice noodles, steamed dim sim and sticky rice. On all dishes Beijing house kicks it.

The prawn and coriander rolls- chock full of delicioulsy fresh steamed prawns with a generous smattering of coriander, coriander roots and a touch of garlic. I would die for these they are that good-as the steam boat are always filled with 3 there is always a mexican stare off and high end negotiation for who gets the lucky third!

Ditto for the scallop dumplings- beautiful translucent melt in your mouth dumpling wrapper scrumptiously full of prawns and scallops with garlic chives. Yum

The BBQ pork rice noodles were steamed to perfection- not too sticky nor were they dry and cracked- the bbq pork and vege filling was generous and very moorish.

The sticky rice here doesn’t disappoint either and it is huge, so if you’re not ravenous and you have other yum cha favourites- maybe stay away- this will put you over the edge. The sticky rice is infused with delicious smoky flavours, chicken, prawn , Chinese sausage and chives. It’s a very good realization.

The service here is efficient and the yum cha is reasonably priced.
