Kwafood Fried Skewer Burwood 夸父炸串 – Burwood NSW Restaurant Review

I didn’t ask my partner to take me to 6 different places in one night to generate content for pegfeeds, but this she did.

One of the stops on our February trip to Burwood Chinatown (written as if it’s not within 2km of our house) was Kwafood Fried Skewer 夸父炸串, a stall where customers pick out raw foods on a stick (a-la skewer malatang), but instead of being boiled in soup they are deep friend and sprinkled with seasoning.

Each skewer is pretty bite-sized, meaning that a lot of variety in textures can be had for quite a small price. Here you can see that the minimum quantity for mushroom is half, and the minimum quantity for corn, for those who want to try, is a micro-riblet.

What Kwafood doesn’t particularly offer in terms of variety is taste, however, which is generally the same as all are coated in the same mildly spicy seasoning upon serving.

It’s really cheap for a snack, under $3 for the above pictured skewers, but I don’t know how much it would cost to actually fill up an adult and ablate the need for further food.

Follow Up
We had a follow up visit a few nights ago, and the situation was completely different. We somehow spent $28 on food, and in contrast to our previous experience, the value proposition was much weaker.

Whilst I didn’t mind the large fried chicken, my wife found it dry and unusually stringy.

The corn that she had previously loved no longer satisfied her – she even thought that perhaps they changed the varietal from something sweet to something maize like.

Overall we were disappointed.
