When the sun doesn't shine and there is a chill in the air, yum cha is a great way to spend a Sunday lunch. The eye sore that is Souths Juniors on Anzac Parade just past the Kingsford roundabout is home to a great yum cha place which is fresh, well-priced, kid-friendly and without queues.
The Imperial Peking is a few floors up with great views toward Botany Bay and the airport, good for the planespotting toddler. It has plenty of high chairs and food comes quicker than you can gather up the chopsticks.
The usual fare is on offer - lots of steamed and fried dumplings, noodles prepared tableside, fried calamari, plates of bbq pork and duck, custard tarts, and Stella's favourite do fu fa - sweet silky tofu.
It is open daily from midday and you don't need to be a member of the club to get in - just sign in at the door. Once you get past the pokie machines on the ground floor and up to the restaurant, the only reminder you are in a club is the widescreen Keno monitor up on the wall.
There is plenty of space for prams and a lift to get up there. The parking is also easy along Anzac Parade.
Yum Cha might not be the most nutritious food for todders but it's tasty and fun, and mess is expected. Not a great for vegetarians.
