I particularly enjoyed the cold soup.
The moderate smokiness from the firewood paired excellently with the dishes.
There were a few moments where I felt the operation was a bit slow, but the atmosphere of the restaurant and the course content felt somewhat modern, making it possibly more comfortable than the main store.
It was delicious, thank you for the meal.
