      The Flower Drum is a Chinese restaurant in Melbourne, Australia, which is widely regarded as a Melbourne institution. It is frequently booked months in advance. It is located just off Bourke Street in Market Lane in the Chinatown precinct of the Melbourne CBD.


      Overview


      The Flower Drum was established by Gilbert Lau and opened on 26 May 1975. The restaurant originally opened in a converted car park at 103 Little Bourke Street and took its name from the 1961 film, Flower Drum Song, a Rogers and Hammersein musical about expatriate Chinese and their life in America.
      In 1980 the restaurant scoring two chef's hats in The Age's Good Food Guide's first edition. Since then the Good Food Guide has named it 'Restaurant of the Year' on numerous occasions. In 1985 the restaurant moved around the corner to its current site. In 2003 Lau sold the restaurant to his employees: executive chef Anthony Lui, William Shek and Patricia Fung.
      In 2019, Anthony's son, Jason, who is now the restaurant's operational manager, has ushered the restaurant into the digital age by refreshing its menu and creating a recognisable social media presence for it.

      A flower drum (Chinese: 花鼓; pinyin: Huāgǔ) is a type of double-skinned Chinese hand drum. The huagu is normally painted red on the sides and generally smaller than the usual tanggu, which makes it easier to use. Usually a red colored sling strap is used by the performer. It is beaten with wooden sticks like other Chinese drums.


      Impact on non-Chinese popular culture


      The instrument appears in the plot of the 2002 rewrite of the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Flower Drum Song, but not in the 1958 original, which took its name from the bestselling 1957 novel The Flower Drum Song on which the musical was very loosely based; see Paigu.
