Food's good, no doubt about it. Waiters are responsive, courteous and helpful. My only one misgiving about the entire place is that second-hand smoke is allowed indoors. Now, granted, it IS a pub/bar. Having said that, though, I wouldn't want to stay more than an hour there, for fear of having my clothes stained with the cigarette smoke stench.
The must-try here is the siew yoke, or Chinese roast pork - unlike most other roast pork, this bar's roast pork is tasty and not so on the smelly, porky side.
