| - We had to wait 30 minutes but they were quick to clean tables and call out numbers. It's a small place and a lot of people were waiting outside and inside. I was quite glad we waited though! This was the first time I came here and I must admit, I lost a bit of self control. We ordered so much. Everything tasted good and I ate myself to the point where I felt sick afterwards because I just couldn't stop. Plus, the portion were generous for their price and free wifi!
The stinky tofu is almost at the standard you'd find at Night It Up. Not as bad perhaps but kind of weak, in my opinion. I think it might be to not deter the non-lovers away from the restaurant but the majority of everyone ordered it so the place had a faint smell throughout.
We ordered a popcorn chicken meal for my brother and it came almost 50 minutes into our meal. Luckily, my brother wasn't too hungry and we had a lot of other dishes to take care of. I think they forgot about it.
Wintermelon tea is one of my absolute favourite drinks in the world and needless to say, I ordered it ($1.50). It tasted a bit more herbal and tea-like than the usual sugar overload you might find in other places. Unfortunately, I found a tiny dead fly halfway through my drink... My mom went cray, but the manager handled it very graciously. I know it wasn't their fault, but they gave the drink to us on the house and 10% off. She even offered to make me a new one but my mom flat out refused. I felt bad, but at least you know they're kind people! (Don't take advantage of this, please!)
The entire staff was coming out to eat by the time we were done. Everyone smiled and nodded to us when we got up to leave, which was a nice depart from the lack of attention once you've paid that you sometimes get in Asian restaurants. I'll be back.
