ordered signature grass jelly, workers JD&KB were very helpful n polite. JD gave recommendations very nicely and introduced some toppings. The grass jelly itself is nice too, every toppings were also well prepared, soft and flavorful. Price is affordable, portion is generous, service is perfect. Definitely will come back again.
