Golden Century, Chinatown Sydney

I forgot to mention that Chinatown is around 2 New York blocks from the hotel- so it is nearby too.  Our first meal was lunch and we chose Golden Century which was recommended by almost everyone we had asked.  And this became Dad and Mom’s favorite that we ate here 3 times!  And you will be surprised how long the lines are even if the restaurant fits maybe 300 people- it is 2 floors!

Fresh! Live! Tasmanian crabs!! 

Fresh water tanks with all seafood!! WOW!!!  You shop for your seafood by the kilo and they weigh it and show it to you,

 

then you decide how you want it cooked 

Here is the Tasmanian crab we got- it was big because we are quite a big family 

The waiter was giving it to me to carry – I did not want, so did Javier- he was scared 

But here is Quito carrying the crab – he said it was heavy – 6 kilos plus!! 

Oh my gosh, nice to see coke in bottles! 

We had the crab 3 ways- All were really good but we were too full to eat the noodles which came last

with Ginger and shallot

Salt and pepper 

and with crab fat ( Aligui ) noodles 

Abalone 

The second time around, Dad wanted to try the snow crab which is a white crab and it is smaller than the tazmanian crab. YUMMY TOO!

 

We had it two ways- with butter and garlic 

and just steamed with garlic 

We also had fresh fish 

Oh, and we ordered more snow crabs but this time salt and pepper!  YUMMY! 

They had other Chinese food just like any Chinese restaurant but I did not feature the others that we ordered like siomai, pork ribs, spring rolls – they were also good but it was the fresh seafood that really caught our attention!

Here is some mixed seafood  salt and peppered also – I like those small fish! 

3rd time we went back was Dad’s choice since it was his birthday!  So, he wanted the Tasmanian crab again!

We ordered other fresh seafood
