About

bn-about

White + Wong’s ‘east meets west’ cuisine takes classic street foods from China, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Malaysia and Thailand – the noodles, soups, curries and delicious dumplings – and created an eclectic menu to pick and choose from to suit.

Flavoursome massaman and red curry pastes made from scratch. Oysters, and sashimi with freshly ground wasabi root. We’re not purists, so if it’s tasty, White + Wong’s are steaming it, frying it and serving it up fresh and fast. In some dishes you’ll find untouched classics like the bang bang chicken, and BBQ pork buns, while others, whole Peking Ducks, numbing & fragrant prawns and BBQ meats are our take on Chinese street food, tweaked and re-imagined. White + Wong’s brings big and fresh Asian flavours to New Zealand. We are located in the heart of Queenstown, right by Lake Wakatipu.

    Born and raised in Brisbane, Australia, with parents who migrated from Vietnam, Hieu has been immersed in the world of food since childhood. Growing up, he had the privilege of assisting his father in making a variety of pastries at the family bakery. After completing his education, he immediately pursued his passion for cooking by embarking on a chef apprenticeship.
