"Food and culture is constantly evolving, therefore prompting one to continuously explore the many different types of food each cuisine has to offer. Gastronomy is the study of the relationship between culture and food, which makes living in a multi-cultural city an ideal place to uncover gastronomy secrets."

Ling Nan Restaurant

This restaurant located in the heart of Melbourne's Chinatown serves typical Chinese food ranging from "Asian KFC chicken", which is salt-infused fried chicken chop laced with chopped garlic and chilli to simple stir-fry vegetables with garlic to prawns with glass noodles to pork with black fungus to tofu dishes accompanied with a huge tub of white rice. Service was fast but understandably not the friendliest, given that the business thrives on high customer turnover. Like many Chinese restaurants, the staff at Ling Nan tries to squeeze as many people as possible onto a table, resulting in many accidental elbow nudges with the person sitting next to you.

I suppose one good thing is that if you ever feel peckish for a midnight snack or meal, Ling Nan is opened till 3am everyday. So, head down to Chinatown for a scrumptious meal after a late night out partying.
