The Age Cheap Eats 2007 "With its apricot walls and natty uniformed waiters, Mei Hing is classic 1980s suburban Chinese. But the frozen-in-time feeling doesn't deter locals, who flock here every night of the week for a satisfying Cantonese feed."

The Age Cheap Eats 2006 Residents living on or around Melway map 77 will jump through fiery hoops to secure a table at Mei Hing. The diningroom is often packed to the rafters with happy faces

The Age Cheap Eats 2005 "WALK into Mei Hing on Saturday night and you're overwhelmed by a wall of noise. The restaurant is absolutely heaving with chatty diners munching spring rolls. The restaurant's popularity isn't based on pushing boundaries - the menu sticks to the cornerstones of Cantonese cuisine."

The Foodies' Guide 2004,Allan Campion & Michele Curtis,'Everything is good here,but we suggest you try some of the less common dishes,such as the chilli pork,crisp-fried pork chop in spicy salt or the paper chicken.The Peking duck is pretty good too.'

The Age, Epicure, Unexplored Territory, Matt Preston, 9/4/02. "Mei Hing is the sort of unpretentious place you should visit."
