Bistro Hulu in Sydney is a favorite among many for its casual Chinese cuisine, particularly known for its delicious dumplings and fried noodles. While some patrons are drawn to the giant soup dumplings that take a while to steam, others are disappointed in the lack of quality and value in certain dishes. Despite some inconsistency in visits, Bistro Hulu continues to attract loyal customers with its tasty and well-cooked offerings, such as the fish maw and longan hotpot, pan fried pork buns, and steamed chicken with ginger and shallot sauce. With a mix of classic and inventive Chinese dishes, Bistro Hulu remains a great spot for a quick and satisfying meal, especially for dumpling lovers.
