This Asian cuisine restaurant is DIVINE! It is a bit of a drive located in the next town over Mattawan, but well worth it. They serve fresh, quality ingredients in their meals and offer Chinese, Thai and Korean style dishes as well as other special offerings. This is by far one of the best restaurants around. Keep in mind, there is sometimes a bit of a wait for a table since the food is so wonderful!
