That food looks so similar to the dishes in one of my favourite restaurants here in Sydney, which I assume is reasonably authentic since it's always packed with Chinese/Chinese Australians and many of the staff speak nothing but Mandarin.

I probably tend to choose the more "westernised" dishes such as "rainbow beef" but the woman next to me last time was eating what looked like that exact same soup.
