A neon-drenched, kitschy party spot serving regional Chinese small plates that prioritizes fun and flavor in equal measure.
Ordering Strategy
Grab a pencil and mark up the paper menu; the cold appetizers and vegetable dishes are particularly strong, so order several to share.
What to order
Cold Sesame Noodles
Described as 'the proverbial steel fist in the velvet glove,' these are slippery, nutty, and buttery with a building chilli heat that critics insist you 'have to order.'
Red braised pork belly
A hearty, substantial dish featuring soft meat in a sauce 'heavy with caramel and soy' and aromatics like black star anise.
Typhoon shelter brussels sprouts
A creative vegetable dish that is 'lightly battered then heaped under deep-fried minced garlic' and chillies—not for the 'nervous granny.'
Seven Spice Slush
An unexpected hit, this Shichimi Togarashi infused yuzu sake slushee was ranked by Hot Dinners as one of their 'best drinks of the year.'

Good to know
The atmosphere is loud with UV lights and disco balls—better for a lively night out than a quiet conversation.
