Was good all around, but with a few issues. For English tourists: there is a touch screen machine to order from with an English option - very much appreciated. It could really benefit from being able to pick how you like the steak done, as this caused our biggest issue. We told the waiter medium rare and it came to us basically raw. Maybe this was a language barrier, but we had the cook try again and this time it was much better.

Plus the order vending machine is removed. It was more convenient with the machine. I ordered 200g steak with a rice set. The soup that came with the rice set wasn't tasty. The salad also tasted weird for me. I don't like it. I have saved money from that rice set and ordered just 300g of steak. The coca cola here served well with ice cubes. Original...
