Rare Eastern Dining

TM

Rare Eastern Dining or R.E.D opened in 2003 with the aim to

revel diversity of oriental food in a pleasing and comfortable

environment where service is attentive, warm but never pompous

and judgmental.

If you haven’t been here before, consider this. Sitting in an

unfamiliar oriental restaurant, have you already chosen old

oriental classics before opening these pages? Dishes like, spring

rolls, golden fried prawns may have crossed your mind? Yes, we

do have some of these comfort recipes and yes we do take a

great deal of care preparing them.

At R.E.D, you can have much more than alternative versions of

dishes you will already find in other oriental restaurants. Our

menu is almost entirely, a compilation of specialties unique to us

and the recipes are never softened or diluted, remaining true to

their oriental origins

Allow us therefore to offer you, new experiences in oriental food

ordering something unfamiliar. After all, a meal with no surprises

is a culinary experience lost and a potentially memorable dining

occasion wasted.
