Reviews
- big_dill_seedThe tables had these little miniature Jiangnan garden scenes on them, and the wood decor mixed with the cute little accents honestly gave off such a strong Jiangnan water town vibe. Even the chopsticks and disposable stuff were designed really thoughtfully — you can tell they cared about the little details.
