    Really enjoyed the green papaya salad. Very light with fresh yummy shrimp and the dressing was light and had just the right amount of kick. Give it a whirl.

    Singapore noodles are well worth the price. Super friendly staff and probably the best restaurant in the mall. Steer clear of CPK and go to Yucca.

    Great small bites! Had the dumplings and the crab and avocado spring rolls with a great wasabi sauce. Perfect light bites!

    Make sure to try the Envolve Sauvignon Blanc! An easy drinking wine nicknamed our "Patio Pounder." Will pair perfectly with any of these delicious dishes!

    The pork buns are fantastic, great ratio of pork to bun. The duck sliders are not to be missed.

    Veggie potstickers and fried tofu are yummy appetizers! Everything is a bit pricey though.

    Ask for the side of spicy chili sauce -- adds flavor and some heat!

    If their duck portions are "generous" as written on the menu, I am Nelson Mandela.

    This is going to sound funny, but I really like their ice tea. Best I've had.

    Rice plate with orange chicken for 9 bucks until 5pm! How can you go wrong with that?

    Lunch was great until the waitress made fun of me for eating my carrot garnish. Huh?

    The food is good but I don't like the "sweetheart" comment by the douchey bartender... Next please!

    Rice doesn't come with the meals and is 5 dollars extra. Prices are too high for what you get.
