Insider Dining Tips
•Monk's Chinese Dining Decoded
•Order family-style dishes to share at the table — this is traditional Chinese dining etiquette and enhances the experience at Monk's.
•Balance your order with a protein (beef/chicken/seafood), a vegetable dish, and either a noodle or rice option for a complete meal.
•Chopsticks are provided, but don't be shy to ask for Western cutlery if you're struggling — the staff at Monk's are accommodating.
•Tea is served throughout the meal, not just at the beginning. Keep your cup turned over if you don't want any.
•When sharing dishes with lazy Susan tables, rotate clockwise and wait your turn — never reach across to grab something.
•Dim sum items come in small portions — order 3-4 types per person to sample Monk's authentic Chinese variety.
Insider Tip
•Lunch special combo boxes Monday-Thursday (12-3pm) include a main, spring roll, and rice for R85 — nearly 30% off regular pricing.
