V^3 Food Review: Fried Ice-Cream - City Garden, Northbridge

So once in awhile, we have to face the reality that despite the awesome food that is available around Perth, there is the occasional place that serves second rate foods. One particular restaurant that reflects this is; City Garden chinese restaurant, located on the west lane of Perth's lame attempt to creating a China town. The only dish that was ordered was the deep fried ice-cream. Needless to say, It did not impress us.


The contrast between the two temperatures was not evident and the outer layer was said to be too thick. which only resulted in a thick, mushy and greasy layer of breadding. The ice-cream used was of low quality and we found it hard to finish. at $3.90, the taste did not justify the price.


If you ever find yourself on the brink of starvation and the only place open is City Garden (they open till 4am). It would be better to starve. Unfortunately I would not recommend this place to eat at, there are many other eateries surrounding it and any of those would be above the level of satisfaction (or lack thereof) this place provides.

V^3 gives City Garden 1.5/5.

City Garden is a rip-off.

The dearth of good chinese and italian amidst the cesspool of pizza/pasta & fried-rice/honey-chicken set-ups is perhaps, a problem of pandemic proportions.

Let's raze the place to the ground before more people are forced to starve...
