Gracious, determined, risk taker.
Her father in law must be very proud of her.
Keep up the traditional offerings and the taste buds drooling.
Fair play to you, you look so humble and honest about spring court history.
It's an iconic building and will always be.

400 dollars because of the bird's nest.

But as she said, only those that can afford it will go for it so power to those people.

I m stepping into my 80's and can still remember the outlet at Great World. Good dining experience for weddings and birthdays. Yes, indeed it was the in-place for occasions.

OMG, $8 is very cheap for a such elegant traditional cuisine over 90 Y.O recipe (almost like fast food price). Honestly I'm very amazed how tough and brave she was as a business woman. I hoped these restaurant could get michellin stars for genuine classic dishes.

Wow, I'll definitely visit your restaurant when I come to Singapore next time.
