"Amazing and flavourful food. The best dish is the pork in a claypot with salted fish. However, it is very warm to dine in even during night time as the fan is not cooling enough."

"The taste of the food is inconsistent, it can be good or average at times. The prices are reasonable. Food and beverages need to be ordered separately. Usually, there is a wait for the food to be served, especially in crowded situations. You may need to wait for over an hour."
