We had the weekend dimsum brunch meal for £20pp. Six dishes - 18 pieces. Very good value for very good quality creative food. The tea was also good. Matcha dessert was a disappointment. Flavour sacrificed for colour & form. Service was friendly & knowledgeable however the food was brought virtually all at once which meant some of it cooled too quickly. I'd visit again but break up the order next time to slow then down.
