The service and food at MuMian was excellent. The location is a small 100m walk to the ICC. We dined there twice before shows that were on at the ICC. They food came quickly and was so good. Highly recommend MuMian, we will dine there again. PS they had great cocktails too!!!

This is located inside the Bankstown Sports Club. The food we had was good. except the vegetable dish which was disappointing. Service was okay but most serving staff was young and inexperienced, and most of them could not speak Chinese and could not explain the Chinese dishes. It is easy to park in the club.
