Zhu Canton, a new 280-seater Asian restaurant has opened on the third level of the Randwick Club.
Zhu Canton is a joint venture between The Randwick Club and Gabe Lo, Director of The Club Catering Management Group. The two words making up the restaurant’s name, share several meanings. Zhu was a Ming Dynasty emperor and the name also means “host”, “to join together” and “to express good wishes”.
Zhu Canton occupies the entire third floor and auditorium of the Club. The dark and moody design by interior designer firm, Giant includes a central dining space broken into more intimate dining spaces by a series of dark timber screens with Asian patterns. The open kitchen is framed by marble like a picture and overhead, a backlit soft and billowing fabric of an abstract Chinese watercolour moves in ripples.
Executive Chef, Billy Tam ‘The Asian Man’ brings over 40 years of experience to the kitchen, together with Dim Sum Master, Johnny Lai, known as ‘Grandpa Johnny’. The Yum Cha menu throughout the day including handmade Dumplings and Dim Sims while the dinner menu includes live and fresh seafood dishes such as Mud Crab, Murray Cod and Baby Abalone.
The Imperial banquet Selection for groups of four or more ranges from $38 to $68 per person.
Zhu Canton is open six days a week for Yum Cha (closed on Monday) and dinner daily.
