BEST SOUTH EAST ASIAN – Chin Chin 

After lying dormant for 30 years, the heritage-listed Griffiths Tea building was brought back to life by Chin Chin’s boundary-pushing style of eating, experimentation, expression, and defying dining traditions. Their menu is inspired by South East Asian dishes, with a spotlight on Thai food. Located in Surry Hills and only a 10 minute walk from Central station, Chin Chin is a must for anyone who loves South East Asian food.
