New experience of food serving where the food serve in plastic bag. Be prepared for the messy on table. Prawn is fresh, crab taste good.
Fried Chicken is surprisingly nice. Price is reasonable. Recommend.

This restaurant is pretty good and reasonable. Don't be afraid for 'Market Price'. For 2 guys, $ 100 ~ 150 was also enough to enjoy dishes. And special sauce makes dishes very good also.
You can add some toppings like corns, boiled rice, ...
Etc to enjoy it more. Service was also good.

Hello K, Thank you for the wonderful review and for taking the time to share your experience with TBC.
Hope to see you again soon!

Food was great honestly and everyone loves boiling crab, but that doesn’t mean being ridiculous with customers. Yesterday, I wasn’t allowed to sit on a table since my party of 4 were still 15 minutes away … when 10+ tables were empty ..
just complete non sense.
I wanted to order appetizers but was told that it’s the store policy ..
🤦🏻‍♂️ Ended up waiting outside until 2 of my friends arrived and then we walked in and the dude refused giving us a table again ..
🤦🏻‍♂️ He said 80% of the party has to be there ..
and we were only 75% ..
🤦🏻‍♂️
