Came
here
with
almost
no
expectations
because
our
brunch
place
was
packed,
and
we
didn't
want
to
wait
forever.
First
impression
was
good,
we
liked
the
view,
lovely
lovely
green
paddy
fields.
Food
taste,
need
major
improvement.
Service
wise,
ok
acceptable
as
you
were
understaffed.
Price
wise
was
decent,
it's
not
expensive
and
not
cheap,
fair
price
for
me.
To
other
reviewer,
Please
don't
compare
the
price
with
the
dumplings
you
had
back
in
China
or
Taiwan,
that's
not
fair
and
will
just
make
you
sound
ridiculous.
Conclusion.
The
pros
:
1.
Gorgeous
paddy
fields
view.
2.
Extensive
menu
of
dumplings.
3.
Also
the
drinks
menu,
thank
you
alcohol,
thank
you
healthy
drinks,
and
thank
you
tea.
4.
Food
appearance
and
presentation
:
great.
5.
There's
a
few
promotion
going
on
and
they
look
fantastic.
6.
Clean
and
cozy
seatings.
7.
WiFi
works
very
well.
8.
Hand
wash
station
is
clean,
I
didn't
check
the
toilet
though.
9.
2
parking
spots
for
car,
yay
and
many
spaces
for
bikes.
10.
Affordable
price
range.
The
cons
:
1.
Open
air
restaurant
so
please
come
early
or
late,
because
11
am
was
scorching
hot.
2.
All
the
staffs
were
friendly
and
quite
attentive.
But
service
needs
improvement,
I
waited
for
them
to
change
my
plate
but
I
understand
you
guys
were
understaffed
but
you
charge
5
percent
for
service
charge
so
I
expected
more.
3.
Taste
:
please
please
improve.
Xiao
long
bao
skin
was
a
major
fail,
it's
thick
and
leaking.
Hint
:
XLB
skin
is
made
using
several
mixture
of
flours.
Try
making
your
own
aspic
and
not
using
ready
made
gelatin.
Also
please
provide
ginger
so
we
can
have
it
with
black
vinegar.
We
ordered
other
dumplings
and
same
problem
existed,
and
one
set
was
even
over
steamed.
As
for
the
mala,
mala
uses
Sichuan
peppercorns
hence
that
where
it
gets
the
name
and
signature,
but
your
mala
stir
fry
had
no
sichuan
peppercorns
at
all,
so
disappointing
and
so
sad
because
I
think
this
place
still
has
so
many
potential.
Hope
on
my
next
visit
the
taste
and
service
hv
improved.
Cheers!
