Food is getting better! In fact, mucho better than a year ago. I wanted to take more fotos but the "manager" doesn't like that and told me to stop, oh well … (my fotos are missing the hot food section ;))

It was a crazy day when I visited this restaurant cuz many people were there!
There were many many kinds of seafood. Also, they have multiple desserts. The price was very acceptable and i guess it was about $16 with coke. This price was between 1 to 3 PM during the WEEKDAY. I have no idea about other times! But in general it deserves to visit again for sure.

Start queuing from the back. Take the oysters and sushi first. The rest of the food are average. Desserts are good, but skip the chocolate fountain.
