Masters of Fun

Holy Peking duck pancakes and firecracker chicken!

Holy Peking duck pancakes and firecracker chicken!

“Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting?” asks the glowing neon light — one of the many fun elements of Master Kong’s highly embellished room, along with textural lamps, a huge primate
mural and upside down Asian paper umbrellas. Sister restaurant to Wellington’s Master Kong, it’s great for groups and it has its Asian street food down pat with delish 12-spice salt and pepper squid,
Peking duck pancakes and firecracker chicken, as well as the now ubiquitous bao and dumplings. Across the courtyard, Madame Sunset has more of a tiki bar vibe with frou-frou cocktails, snacks and bigger dishes. In the weekend, the two venues join forces to serve up yum cha.
