    After seeing many viral posts of this place I had to try the marinated salmon and prawn dish, I was a little worried the soy marinade would be spicy for my friend but thankfully it was not. The green sauce to pour on top is spicy but so so good because I love spicy food. I’m glad we both could experience it, definitely going back for that dish alone!
