BEST CHINESE FOOD IN BOX HILL | Melbourne Food Guide

Ойын-сауық

In this episode, we're taking you to the best Chinese food in Box Hill. Box Hill is a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, 14 kilometers east of the city's CBD. It may not have the flashy neon of Chinatown, but what's happening in Box Hill is drool-worthy. It is only 20-30 minutes drive from Melbourne CBD, which could be the most overlooked destination for Asian food.
Everywhere you look there are queues of diners spilling out of restaurants, hungry and waiting to feast on the endless array of authentic Asian gastronomy. While the foods of Japan, Korea, Malaysia, and Vietnam are well represented, it's the regional Chinese food styles that are particularly exciting from Shaanxi cooking to Sichuan food to Shandong food. This patch of Melbourne is so amazing that you should make it a whole day out and go on a crazy Asian food adventure.
Join us with this epic best Chinese food tour in Box Hill!

    Box Hill has really good Chinese food. I love spending time there just walking around and looking at every single restaurant. Its like visiting another country, there are so many exotic options that I can’t find outside of this area.

    Thanks for this nice local video, its great! However I do have a bit of feedback, if you are open to that. I (and many other people) absolutely cannot stand people talking with their mouth full! I absolute hate it when someone is talking to me, and as I'm looking at them, I can see their mouth opening with food inside!! Or I can see that they have their food tucked inside their cheek as they're talking to me.
