Hoong Fatt Chinese Restaurant

Ok short post this time. Just going to mention this chinese restaurant located in Launceston. Called Hoong Fatt, it's probably one of the only few chinese restaurants in Launceston. Up til now I've tried 5 chinese restaurants here and I reckon that's about all they have. I might be wrong though, would need to explore more to get a definite answer.

Anyway, Hoong Fatt Chinese Restaurant is a small restaurant located close to the city. Can't remember the exact name of the street but it's next time Brisbane Street. The cute thing apparently is that the father and mother run the grocery store next door, and the son and his wife run the restaurant.

I'm not sure how their meals cost at lunch time, but at dinner time it's an all you can eat buffet for AUD$8.90. That's pretty cheap actually, hard to find such value elsewhere. And if you like, they have an add-on to your buffet meal which allows you to take their dim sum (they call it dim sim), a soup, dessert and a drink for just AUD$12.10. It's a bit like an Angmo zhi char stall. Don't expect a lot of variety though, probably only abt 12 dishes to choose from. Surprisingly a lot of Angmos go there to take away food. And they all usually go for the fried rice... Anway, food here is not the best, but for hungry students such as myself, it represents great value for a low price. Eat ahhhhhh!!!
