Bar de toda la vida, ahora gestionado por una familia china muy, muy entrañable y atenta. Tienen un servicio de 10, que a muchos otros ya les gustaría. Sus platos de especialidad asiática no tienen absolutamente nada que envidiar a los asiáticos originales en la zona de Arc de Triomf. Y tienen una terraza enorme!

Bar força correcte, el tracte al client no és gens dolent. Pots menjar apartir de les 4 de la tarda per si surts tard de la feina. Disposen de carta i de menú, el últim ronda els 10€, preu qualitat aceptable. El menjar es força bo així com el cafè. El millor els seus fideus són de 10.
