Chloe is fantastic! The prawn pad thai is the best we’ve ever had by far. Tried one from each section of the apps, all very good but highlights were the beef skewer and crab uni buns. Ended with a top tier soufflé and espresso martinis with a lovely chocolate after-note.

We had a delightful lunch before theater. The restaurant is very nicely decorated. The wait staff were lovely. Selena was our main person but the other 2 people were also very helpful and all were very available. We found the papaya salad very good as a shared start. We had tamarind duck with eggplant and a mixed seafood dish with salty duck egg sauce. Both dishes came with a generous amount of well prepared rice.
