    Lovely little restaurant hidden away in Southend. We ordered the speciality of half a pineapple with sticky rice and topped with pork. Delicious. Also the prawn skewers, tacos and edamame. We ate at 6pm so it was v quiet in there although I’m sure later on it gets busier. Beautiful decor and friendly service. We’ll be back!

    The venue is beautiful and a calm setting with great views. The food was on the whole was ample and a good selection. The sandwiches were a little dry on both sides and although there was a great selection of cakes, there were three of us and sometimes only 1 or 2 of the mini cakes on offer. Everything else had three eg three sandwiches, three scones Every all it was a great experience and value for money.
