Visit websiteAbout Wok Temptation
Fast, honest wok cooking at Southport Central dishes out big portions without cleaning out your wallet. Regulars head straight for the Yangzhou fried rice, roast duck, and quick-fired salt and pepper calamari, then load up at the self-serve condiment bar with house chili oil, vegetable chili sauce, and Chinese vinegar. Tables turn quickly over lunch breaks, BYO beer is welcome from the bottle shop around the corner, and the counter crew gladly adapts stir-fries for picky eaters and custom orders. You leave with clean plates, full takeout tubs, and enough change left over for dinner tomorrow.
- Self-Serve Sauce Bar: Help yourself to house chili oil, vegetable chili sauce, black vinegar, and soy to season dumplings and noodles.
- Value-Focused Everyday Staples: Fast lunch turnarounds feature hearty portions of fried rice, dumplings, and roast meats at easy everyday prices.
- Casual BYO Friendly: Bring your own beers from nearby shops to pair with casual wok-tossed dinners and dim sum plates.
