Tip: order the peanut soup, it’s so good! Just as the curry, spareribs, sweet potato fries and the delicious desserts by the way.

These are prepared with a lot of love in front of you and served in super cute ‘glass’. If you can’t choose, please tell them what you want to eat, they’ll make a cocktail that matches with your dish. How nice is that?!
