What truly elevated the meal, however, was the service. Adele was outstanding \u2014 warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to explain every single course in detail, shared the inspiration behind the dishes, and genuinely engaged in conversation throughout the meal, which made the entire experience feel personal rather than transactional.\n\nA special highlight was having the chance to meet Vicky Cheng, the owner himself. Being able to briefly speak with him added another meaningful layer to the evening and made the experience even more memorable.\n\nI\u2019ve dined at many Michelin-starred restaurants across different countries, and VEA truly stands out \u2014 not just for the food, but for the hospitality, precision, and soul behind the experience. It\u2019s a restaurant I genuinely love and one I would return to without hesitation.","rating":5,"time_description":"3 months ago"},{"author":"ARTYOS","text":"I went here for dinner and really enjoyed the food. Almost every dish was excellent. The ingredient quality was very high, and you can tell they use premium products.\n\nThe price is expensive, but it matches the quality, so I think it\u2019s fair.\n\nThe restaurant is counter seating only, no regular tables. I did notice they have a private room. Personally,\n\nI didn\u2019t like the overall atmosphere because it felt too crowded and dense for me.\n\nThe restroom is available, but it\u2019s very small and not as clean as I expected, especially for a restaurant at this level.\n\nThat said, the food quality and flavors are absolutely worth it.\n\nIf you care about high-quality ingredients and serious cooking, this place is definitely worth trying.","rating":5,"time_description":"3 months ago"}]},"attached":false}
