The desserts were beautifully presented and very flavoursome.All staff friendly and approachable considering we had a few questions which were answered beyond our expectations.

Delicious food. Extremely large portions at great value prices. Desserts are big and sweet.

A very cool place to eat with a weird and wonderful menu!
Free parking on the main street in town and and a really funky, modern layout for the tables in a very clean setting.
We booked a table online and the service was excellent. The food is everything from soup, dumplings, and wok dishes. We had Chicken with Black Bean Sauce and Sweet and Sour Chicken. Both were delicious and filling but a little pricy.
The main issue with eating here is the excess noise can make it hard to have a conversation but worth visiting for good food.
