Great food , I did 3 appetizers and a main. Was far too much food, but I wanted to try different things. The 5 spice noodles and Kimchi on the side was my favorite !
Everything from start to finish was excellent! Wish we had more room in our bellies to try more. Had the sea scallop, hamachi collar special, cauliflower app, kfc bao and octopus bao. So tasty!
