Low Key Chow House

The Verdict

Round up your mates for an Asian fusion feast at lively Perth restaurant Low Key Chow House in Leederville. The menu is all about sharing, and combines much-loved family recipes with modern cuisine, featuring the very best of Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, Korean, Singaporean and Filipino dishes.

Make sure you try their Mantou Buns—delicious steamed bun parcels stuffed with savoury caramel pork belly, coriander and crushed peanuts—and round out the night with gooey deep-fried ice cream rolls topped with salted caramel. It’s fully licensed, but why not immerse yourself fully in the experience by sampling some sake or umeshu? 

Low Key Chow House has launched a new share-style menu which packs in the value, particularly where groups are concerned. Go with a group of six and score your choice of 15 dishes for just $35 per person. You can also nab 10 dishes for groups of four and five dishes for two diners—all for the same low price. The rendang is a must, featuring slow-cooked braised beef in a coconut, kaffir lime and lemongrass curry base as is the black pepper squid served with sweet sausage bao crumb and sesame slaw. Head in during happy hour (5.30pm to 6.30pm) any day of the week and take those savings even further with $5 beers and $6 wines.
