Nice cozy restaurant, with limited spaces. I tried the yellow eel clay pot for the first time and it was surprisingly tasty. The eel meat was tender and marinated very well. I wasnt able to finish all the rice though, the portion from a small pot was massive for one

Small shop with limited space, but the food is worth it!!! We had a sausage and abalone clay pot, a dark chicken herbal soup, and an eggplant dish. All tasted great except the chicken in the soup, which was dry and tough. Service was great and price was reasonable. Highly recommend!
