1. The 2 person table set up at poor position; along the edge of kitchen. I suggest to spread them across the whole restuarant for customer to choose from. 2. Provide Dim Sum menu with photos for customer to choose from. 3. Dim Sum is not hot enough. It will be good to make it hotter.

All the food was delicious! We had the Mother’s Day Brunch and everything was so good. The oysters were very fresh, and the desert was lovely! The jasmine tea was so fragrant and arguably the best I’ve ever had. The customer service was even better! The lady was so nice, always looking after us. She gave plenty of recommendations for our indecisive group!
