Ruyi

Ruyi offers a very Melbourne take on the Chinese restaurant; the decor makes it clear that it's not a cheap and cheerful Chinatown dive - its serene designer fit out offering a hint about the mindfulness of its menu. The CBD restaurant rethinks traditional regional dishes, turning them into unique, modern plates full of flavour and finesse. There's a concise, quality wine list and an impressive list of desserts, too.
