Emily Yeoh Restaurant

Tucked into Paddington's Given Terrace—a total masterclass in vibrant Asian cuisine. Forget the standard suburban stir-fries. Discerning Brisbane eaters whisper about the Singapore chilli crab here like it’s a religious experience. Chef Emily Yeoh commands the kitchen with serious finesse—often stepping onto the floor to talk produce and technique directly with guests. The menu? An absolute powerhouse of bold, perfectly balanced flavors. Think fragrant Hainan chicken rice that easily rivals elite Southeast Asian hawker stalls. Rich, complex roast duck curry. Phenomenal *Nyonya* curry vegetables vibrating with authentic spice. Aburi salmon layered on crispy calamari toast—pure culinary flex. Those charting the local dining circuit count on this spot for epic feasts and deeply personal hospitality. Sure, a buzzing room means a dynamic pace on peak nights, but the sheer quality on the plate? Uncompromising. Book a table, order the crab banquet—thank me later.
