 We visited on Saturday at around 6PM , we was quite lucky as there wasn't any queue!! Usually it can be quite crowded especially during the dinner time. Some of our friends has experience queuing for an hour hence my suggestion is to go early !

Here are the dishes we order for 5 Pax,

1) Sauteed Prawn
