Reviews
Food was absolutely delicious. Loved the variety on offer and twists on classics. Just 10/10. Only issue (and I know it happens a bit with tapas style eating) is everything came one by one, so I had my sides by themselves to stop them getting cold, then my greens, then the bao then the dumplings. Staff were super nice…
