New Deal Coming Soon at Chilli Padi

Chilli Padi on Batmans Hill Drive in Docklands celebrates bold Asian street food, drawing on Malaysian, Indo-Chinese and Thai kitchens. After more than a decade in Melbourne’s food scene, the team stepped away and returned with the same bold flavours and a fresh approach.

Dishes are wok-fired and full of flavour: fragrant coconut rice with chicken curry or slow-cooked beef rendang, peanuts, crispy anchovies, egg and sambal; rich laksa with tofu puffs and fresh herbs; and smoky flat rice noodles with prawns, egg and bean sprouts. Everything is prepared fresh, so it suits a quick lunch, a casual dinner or a reliable takeaway.
