“I tried to find a cafe place to work while waiting for my son in a class at Columbia city. Unfortunately, most of the cafe around there closed at 6pm. Luckily I finally found this place, nice and quiet and exotic place, i can quietly work their and drinking coffee. Smell the food there I ended up order a plate to take home. We all love it, pretty good price and nutritional balanced. I am glad I found this place!”
