🪑About the Overall Atmosphere 🎡
This is a family restaurant, divided into a dining area on the 1st floor and a children's play area on the 2nd floor. If you come without a reservation, you usually have to wait until after meal hours for a spot, but you can go up to the 2nd floor to let your kids play; however, you need to pay a deposit of $1200, which is fully refundable if you dine in.
The 2nd floor play area mainly consists of a ball pit, sand pit, a crawling area restricted to children under 80cm, a playhouse area, and a relaxation area for parents.
Bathrooms and nursing rooms are available on both floors, but only the 1st floor has a changing table.

🍴About the Food ☕
Before coming, I saw some online reviews saying the food is on the pricey side and average in taste. However, both my wife and I found the portions to be decent and quite tasty. The beef hot pot had large chunks of meat, about 6 to 7 pieces, and the broth was rich, though slightly salty. The pasta contained five shrimp, and the soup that came with the set was also very delicious. The bread rolls were eaten by the kids, so I didn't get their feedback. The children's meal was considered a good deal, and they finished everything.

🤨Conclusion ♥
There is a two-hour time limit for dining, but the play area on the 2nd floor is available for play all day long. If you're unsure where to take the kids to burn off some energy, this place is worth considering. It is suitable for children approximately aged 0.6 to 5 years, in my opinion.
