It's a nice place overall. I think they have nice cakes too. But I felt there should be a bit more selection of dishes on the menu. its easy to find and to park here.

ดีมาก is my feeling about this restaurant; rating at 4.5 stars ????

When I arrived here with my better half, I didn’t know this restaurant is nestled and hidden from the carpark and only saw the modern clean lines of the greenhouse styled restaurant after she turned the corner around a container seating area.

The restaurant seating were converted from cargo containers (I think) and surrounds an open grassy seating area open to the sky. On a starry cloudless night, with candles lighting the small tables, this area would have been a favourite for groups or couples looking for that cosy or romantic dinner.

As Mia and I came for lunch, we naturally took the greenhouse styled container with a large completely full glass window overlooking the grassy area outside.

The interior of this restaurant is decorated with ferns and plants from the ceiling and boasts clean lines accentuated by the tables, chairs, countertop in a cool air conditioned space.

As we set out to place our orders, we were a little surprised about the length of wait time required for a couple of the dishes we chose. That would have been the only blemish on an otherwise great restaurant but hen again, that only meant they prepared their food fresh and to-order doesn’t it?

The wait staff was friendly as he tentatively (almost nervously) advised us about the wait time. This is one restaurants I went to, whose wait staff crouched down to take my order, much like how an airline steward would respond to a passenger. Small action be big on impression ????????????????

We ordered a stewed pork and mushroom dish, followed by soft shell crab, and then the prawns on watermelons and the pork ribs. I love the food!! Particularly, the soft shell crab and the prawns on watermelon! That two dishes are quite exceptional. I’m smiling now as I remember the crunch followed by the fragrance of the crab and how my eyes met Mia’s and both of us immediately found our love for this dish. I also find the prawns on watermelon refreshing for the fresh crunchy prawns skewered to a block of juicy sweet watermelon with a hint of spice. Mia felt that Mom should love this restaurant too ????

Will want to return for another time if we can and will also recommend this location be it for a family lunch or that romantic dinner ????
