Tucked along New Lambton’s bustling Alma Road is a little taste of Asia set among the hunter region by way of Paul’s Asian Affair restaurant. A welcoming atmosphere awaits with an earthy palette of green and brown, where bamboo artworks adorn the walls above a relaxed seating arrangement, making for a casual and enjoyable dining space to share a meal. Offering dishes with authentic Chinese, Malaysian and Thai flavours, sample a tasty plate of hot and spicy Bombay chicken or twice cooked roasted pork with a punchy garlic and sweet chilli soy sauce. Seafood lovers may opt for barbequed Tiger prawns with a touch of black pepper and brandy, succulent market grilled fish fillets with black bean sauce and rice or a five spice soft shell crab, with dishes easily packaged as a take away option.
