So I've never really been into Asian cuisine to begin with, but per my friends' recommendation, I accompanied them to this restaurant with an open mind. First impression was that the decor definitely caught my eye. The setting and mood of the restaurant managed to be classy without being snobbish, elegant, yet welcoming.
There was a line, though luckily, my friends knew to arrive early so the wait wasn't too long. As I said before, I have never been into Asian food, though for this particular restaurant, they can definitely expect my repeated business.
We kept it simple and stuck to the chicken rice, since supposedly that was what it's all about. We also shared some skewers and each had one of their unique drinks. I had the lime soda, which I would highly recommend, I love the taste of it. While it's not too sweet, but manages to be very refreshing.
As for the chicken rice set, I chicken and selection of sauces where all top notch, I especially enjoyed the rice, since in my past experience with this dish elsewhere, I have always found the rice too oily; though the way they make theirs was perfect for my pallet. I was perhaps most impressed by their soup, and was temped to order another pot on the side. It was amazing. The skewers were also good, not as memorable as the soup, though I can definitely see myself ordering it again upon my next visit.
All in all the restaurant really provided the full package. The food, atmosphere were all great. All that need to be improved is for me to start making reservations now for next time. It would be nice to be able to walk in anytime I want, but I'm glad they are doing so well. They deserve to.
