Our best meal here out of 5x visits. Disappointed the lamb flat noodle dish was no longer on the menu however the dishes we chose this time were delicious. Tofu tempura, beans, crab and lamb baos and chicken wings. Ginger beer was too sweet for both of us. Waiter did a great job considering he was the only one on tonight.
