Reviews
- Vesper_32Honestly, I didn't expect to love this place as much as I did. The white beech mushrooms with shrimp came out looking gorgeous on the plate, with these little maple leaf garnishes that made the whole thing feel super seasonal, and the shrimp itself was so tender and flavorful. The stir-fried beef rice noodles had that perfect chewy, springy texture and you could really tell the wok heat was on point, the seasoning was spot on too. The crispy three-layer pork was a highlight for me, skin was super crunchy and the meat wasn't greasy at all, and dipping it in sugar? Game changer. The clay pot rice was so good, the grains were fluffy and had soaked up all that savory goodness from the bottom. Fresh ingredients, nice and quiet atmosphere, good for catching up with friends. Service was attentive without being over the top. Definitely coming back.
