Sept 2024: Ordered Xiao Long Bao, Pork Laksa, Claypot Hong Kong Style Soy Chicken and Assam Milk Tea. Food is freshly cooked and it tastes great! Limited selection but it's on point. Can't wait to try the other menu items next time.

June 2025: I had the chance to reconnect with a college classmate who had come all the way from the US for a reunion. Excited to catch up, I suggested this cozy restaurant known for its delightful food—my experiences there had always been positive. We dove into a feast, ordering the mouthwatering pork meatball congee, the fragrant lemongrass chicken, and a refreshing buy-one-take-one calamansi lemon fruit tea.

Upon seeing the long queue I asked her “pang ilan pa po kami?” And told us “kayo naman po ang una” thats the time I exclaimed so bakit di pa kami pwede umorder? Andami nyo pinauna samin. She just ignored everything i said and for me thats so unprofessional. Even the manager didn’t bother talking to us regarding that matter. In the end we just waited for the long queue and left the place disgusted about...
