Insanely delicious!!! Both for vegans and non-vegans! We shared a large set menu between the 2 of us and were both extremely satisfied. The southern fried jackfruit reminded me of fried chicken in the American South. Even the dumplings/rolls were homemade. Highly recommend! Entrance via the Arcade, then walk down the hallway towards the back.

Beautiful, pure soul food. Yes, it’s heavy on the carbs bla bla.. let’s be honest, it’s perfect for nibbling while gossiping, for those PMS days, or simply when you need the comfort of an invisible hug served on a plate. Can't wait to be back.
