Rain or Shine Hotspot

This place is a hidden gem in a the quiet King's Court mall! This resturant really surprised us when we came in for a meal! The atmosphere is insanely cute some serious Instagram worthy photos I would love to come pop over after high school with my friends I am far too late in my years to be doing this now. The food was awesome and the portions were so large! I got the beef brisket casorole this is a single person hot pot. We also got 4 lamb skewers to share and my girlfriend got a pickled fish noodle lunch special which was MASSIVE! All our food came out promptly and tasted excellent! Note that there is some spice to some of the dishes so if you like spice you came to the right place! The vibes and decor was awesome as you can see in the attached photos this place could be an instant hit with such great decor! It reminded me of being underwater like dining at a mermaids house with their velvet clam shell seats! ‍ Amazing prices we will be coming back 100%

Food was overall very good and the ambience definitely reminded me of being in one of the big cities in China ! I liked how the food wasn't smothered in too much of seasoning like most of the other Chinese skewer restaurants and you can taste the flavour of the meat and veges etc. I have to mention that their plum juice does not taste great...but aside from that a pleasant experience! Robots serving you were also a nice touch

The skewers here are tasty. Spicy is actually spicy, which we liked. Eggplant and scallops are a must order! Make sure you get the beer so worth it.

The skewers hot pot place located inside the king's plaza 2nd floor. The place was very pretty. The service was a bit slow probably people for drink, chat and enjoy the food come slower. The skewers were tasty. All dishes were good The staffs were good. I will go there again

Friendly services and good value for the price. Recommend BBQ shrimpoystersquideggplantcornduriantaiwan sausagescallop vermicelli. Cold dishessliced beef and ox tongue in chili sauce and clear noodles in chili sauce are my favorite. Nice dessertFried icecream is amazing. Hope everyone can go there and get good fooddy time.

It’s a shame this place is located in such a barren mall/area beacuse it is cute! Especially the little robot that serves you! The veggie dishes are very good but, things are a little bit too oily and sometimes doesn’t feel fresh. Overall though I’d say give it a try! The fried sesame balls were my favourite!

Spicy level is great! Very tasty food. Great ambience.

I usually don't do reviews but this place was so bad that I had to leave a review. I had a HORRIBLE experience at this restaurant and would NEVER COME HERE AGAIN. I really do not recommend it and please check the reviews and promotions carefully if you do! I'm inclined to believe that it was a soft opening for them and they were promoting a discounted spin the wheel to get 20-80% off your order. However, when getting ready to pay they said its discounted the next time you come which felt like a SCAM because there was no mention of it in the promotion. The kitchen seems to be in disarray and extremely slow because it took an hour and a half for all our food to arrive after having ordered and the dessert came to us at the same time as the entrees. A lot of the servers seemed like they did not want to work there and just very displeased in general which made for such an unpleasant experience. Though there was one lady who was very sweet and apologetic when she just taking our order, she was struggling to do so because of a bit of a language barrier. It was definitely a struggle to communicate with the waiters/waitresses because I don't think they understood English very well and they had a hard time speaking in English. Thankfully I went with my girlfriend who eventually spoke in mandarin with them for them to understand our order. The only pros of this place was the cute décor, the Taiwanese spicy sausage and fried ice-cream. Those two items were good but definitely would not justify me coming back here ever again when I was go elsewhere with better management and service. Our order: Lamb skewer - quite bad and bland, generally a must order at most Chinese restaurants but they missed the mark here Scallops - the garlic and vermicelli toppings were good but I think undercooked because it was very tough, gave 2 orders even though we only ordered 1 Pork intestine - average and the portion size was quite small, the intestine was cut in two and stretched, personally wasn't my cup of tea Crispy pork casserole - a bit misleading in its name, definitely need to know Chinese here to know what the dish actually is, it was more of a soup with soggy pork pieces, no crispiness at all Taiwanese sausage - I really enjoyed this. I love Taiwanese sausage but the portion size was quite small, I think around 1 link per skewer about the size of a thumb Beef ribs - never came, and they didn't mention anything about it until we asked about the ribs which was around the time to waiter came with the ice-cream, he said that they don't have any which would have been nice to have mentioned it prior rather than making us wait in anticipation Fried ice-cream - I really enjoyed this, one of the best items at this restaurant in my opinion A lot of these dishes had quite small portions size and is definitely overpriced for what they give you!

Overall, the dinner experience was good. The food was not fully cooked with charcoal and some are steamed and frued instead. However, the price of food was a good deal in 2022 and customer service is good.

TLDR: Deceptive marketing strategies, poor service, lack of communication, slow food arrival, overpriced Deceptive marketing! Decided to try this place out despite lack of reviews because we saw there was a promotion for 20-80% off the bill for soft opening. Once we finished eating we were told that it was the next visit, but due to poor service and overpriced food, we would not return. 2/3 servers that were there the night we went were quite unfriendly and I would also not recommend you visit unless you speak decent Chinese as servers have some difficulties communicating in English. We had a hard time when asking certain questions about the menu or for things like extra napkins. At one point we asked a male server for napkins, and although he nodded his head he proceeded to walk back and forth our table several times even though it was not busy and in the end never delivered. We were also unimpressed by the delivery and speed that food came at. It took around an hour and a half for all of our dishes to arrive and each item arrived so slow that we would be done the previous dish plus more time before the next was served. The one instance we got two dishes at once was when our dessert came at the same time as one of our grilled items, even though we had originally asked for dessert to be after all the mains were served. One of our items was also out of stock but nobody let us know until we asked about it. Overall portions felt smaller than similar restaurants despite charging the same. The only positives I could really give is cute decor and one waitress was really sweet.
