It has 2 branches, the first and the most famous one is in Designia Mall, while its second branch can be found at Fleming Hotel which I visited last week. The rolls were too small so you may still feel hungry after eating them unless you order multiple dishes or eat a lot of rice. Nevertheless, they have a large menu with many options that will satisfy different tastes so everyone can find something they like here! I still want to try hot dishes and desserts so I may visit again soon.
