At the beginning of the 21st century, Chinese restaurants have been present in a significant majority of Australian cities and towns for over fifty years, and in many places for over one hundred and fifty years. They emerged as commercial enterprises on the Victorian gold fields in 1854.[2] HistoryChinese food began to be established in Australia during the middle of the 19th century by Chinese indentured labourers on outback stations, many found work there as cooks and also in country pubs. Chinese migration to Australia massively increased with the gold rushes during the 1850s, and some of these migrants opened food stores providing hot meals to Chinese gold diggers. European gold diggers also sometimes used these stores. They were referred to as "cookhouses", or as "cookshops", and were often associated with other Chinese businesses.[2] One third of all cooks in Australia were Chinese by 1890.[8] While Chinese migration to Australia essentially stopped from 1901 with the White Australia policy, chefs were granted exemptions and from 1934 Chinese traders with established businesses were able to bring non relative workers in from China. Family members were brought in under different names, were not trained cooks, and they had to learn on the job. Chinese restaurants were established in many country towns and all cities by the 1970s.[10] Australian Capital TerritoryThe oldest Chinese restaurant in Canberra opened in 1962, and was still operating in 2016. VictoriaThe first documented Chinese restaurant in Australia was at Bakery Hill, Ballarat, on the Victorian goldfields, owned by Chin Thum Lok, opening in 1854. The restaurant did not serve Chinese style food, but instead provided English style food such as roast beef.[10] In Melbourne eighteen Chinese restaurants were listed in 1920, by 1939 eight had been established outside of the city's Chinatown precinct, and by 1970 there were one hundred and fifty operating throughout the city and suburbs.[10] Ingredients and dishesThe style of dish presented has changed over time. In the 1960s and 1970s typical dishes were sweet and sour pork, or beef and black beans, with fried rice. In the 21st century many, more traditional, Chinese ingredients are used. Tofu was once unheard of, but now is readily accepted. The majority of original Chinese migration came from Kwangtung Province in southern China, heavily influencing the style of food, consisting of fresh vegetables and fruit, with fish, poultry, and pork, with rice, herbs and spices.[10] See also
