Ever since it moved to Park Road in 2005, the family-owned Cantonese restaurant China Sea has supplied the Milton community with elite and authentic East-Asian dining experiences.
Veteran restaurateur Stanley Cheung has owned China Sea since the ‘80s. In the past, the restaurant was based in Brisbane’s Chinatown located in Fortitude Valley, where it operated from 1980 to 2005. After 25 years of running a successful restaurant, Stanley opted to pack up and move to Park Road, Milton. Today, over 30 years later, the restaurant’s still standing strong with the help of his family.
Stanley’s sons, Jason and Philip Cheung, are established chefs in their own right and work to deliver fine, authentic Cantonese cuisine to the China Sea’s customers. The restaurant takes pride in its menu, serving a huge variety of dishes such as peking duck, chili mud crab, honey sesame king prawns, and hokkien fried rice.
