The staff was very friendly! Had a little bit of a hard time hearing the historian where I was sitting but what I did hear was informative and interesting! Food was just ok. Curry vegetable, rice, sweet bread and pork ribs heavy on chili powder. The salad was delicious as was the cheesecake. I would definitely recommend this trip. Just be aware of the food and if they aren’t really your thing, have a little snack before you go.
