Tao Yuan Asian Cuisine

Could this be one of the best Chinese restaurants in South Africa? 🇨🇳🥢

Sea Point is filled with authentic, unpretentious eateries, and Tao Yuan Asian Cuisine is exactly that: an old-school Cantonese restaurant where the focus is less on trendy décor and more on generous portions, shared dishes, seafood and traditional Chinese flavours.

Hosted by the wonderful Aunty Mary, this is the kind of understated neighbourhood restaurant you need to experience for yourself.

We tried the spicy smashed cucumber salad for R78, followed by the Sichuan pepper beef for R188—a savoury, spicy stir-fry with that signature málà combination of heat and tongue-tingling numbness.
