Ambiance
+ Randy (not our server) was super helpful and attentive
- wish our seating had brighter lights, couldn't clearly see the food we were eating
- service was slow, but maybe that's cuz we were seated in the back. There were delays in ordering, getting refills on water, and asking for a to go box and having to ask another server.
Flock Frites
+ fries are fried well and crispy
- taste like jack in the box curly fries, kinda salty too
- sauce is too salty and the fish/soy sauce is too prominent. Would a touch of citrus help?
Free friend chicken buttermilk bao w/ check in
+ soft bao/covering and the chicken is crunchy and juicy
- veggies don't really go well with the chicken, I personally would have preferred cilantro or another type of green
Chicken Rice
+ delicious ginger and garlic, spicy sauce
+ chicken was crispy and roasted well, the flavorful skin was balanced by the lemon and meat
- the rice for the chicken rice eaten back home was cooked with margarine and chicken stock but this one was too plain
Laksa
+/- flavor of the noodles are good without being salty but the noodles were too cooked and soft/soggy
- super salty chicken bites
Summary: it's possible to be flavorful without being overly salty,
