 It opens at 1130, not 1100. After wandering at the park across the street, we went in with a few tables already seated. The place was very small, but felt spaceious because it had no doors. Just 1 thing though, when I pulled my chair out, there were ashes or something on it, which was a bit ew...


The foreign server was quite nice, and tried hard to satisfy a customer's need. The reason why my friend wanted to come was of course to have their famous mentaiko pasta! She suggested that we each get one because the portion wasn't too big, so we did.

 The Mentaiko Pasta ($78) was absolutely delcious! 
 You can see how generous they were with the mentaiko! 
 The pasta was al dente, and their choice of pasta was perfect for this kind of sauce, and every bite filled my mouth with fullness. It also was a little spicy, which ignited my appettite.
For such quality, the price is actually quite good. It was cheaper and way tastier than THAT Taiwanese cafe's , so I definitely reccomend this!

 To finish up, we shared a Banana Pancake ($78). It looked pretty, but that was it. The pancake was thick, and turned it to be quite dry. The banana was nicely caramalized, but even that couldn't save the pancake. This $78 was worth it. 

Final Verdict:
I would definitely come again for the mentaiko pasta and try some of their other dishes!
