It’s Christmas Day, they are short staffed & getting hammered but it was such a lovely afternoon. The staff were flustered yet apologetic but we didn’t mind, they were doing their very best. Food was great, my mocktail Sunnyside was delicious. The beers were cold, dishes were really interesting. We weren’t rushed at all in fact the restaurant called me the week before to move my booking so that we could enjoy more time there. Qudos to the staff holding it all together on a very busy day

Overall a satisfying lunch. We ordered 2 noodle dishes, wasabi beef cubes was tender, jade tofu was delicious, as were the golden sand pork ribs & three cup chicken. Not overly salty, which is great.
