Sean B: Get the rainbow salad (22 ingredients), braised pork belly, chili garlic prawns and plenty of the coconut rice. All the soups are great.
Masha Meyman: Tea leaf salad, samosa soup, coconut rice, garlic broccoli, garlic shrimp, chicken noodles = all amazing!
Larry Zhou: tea leaf salad was superb. curry eggplant + garlic shrimp tasted like it came from the same base sauce, mediocre. burmese fried rice, good.
