Wow, what an interesting place. I really didn't know what to expect with "floating" as a descriptor for this place, but sure enough, while it's not necessarily entirely floating it appears to be and for the most part is. I was most impressed by the massive fish fountains and being able to climb over everything. In a way it was a very interactive restaurant inclusive of a boat ride if you choose to partake. I could liken it slightly to an amusement park.
There are lots of small private huts all about the restaurant, but to get one you might have to reserve in advance. We were walk ins and for our party size was unable to get one... darn, but we still had fun and the live band we sat near was really friendly, even doing some request songs as a welcome back to the Philippines and a happy birthday for the little girl in our group.
Before we got to eat, we explored everywhere, everything! Took photos and climbed on ward. Around evening the entertainers begin their show. Between them, a band, and all architecture/statues to look at, you'll be very occupied.
I have to admit.. I've eaten on banana leaves before, but something was exciting about having a table spread of leaves and tasty food.They even garnished the mango smoothie with cute flowers.
The only thing I think is silly and very out of place in this restaurant is the weird Disney statues that seem forgotten to time. They're kinda covered in moss, and look a bit terrifying. Their bright amusement park colors are an eyesore when beside the woods, jungle, Asian aesthetic. Plus they're covered in moss and look grungy and somewhat post apocalyptic. Just imagine theme parks that are abandoned.. Other than that, it's a really cool place. You'll kinda think you stepped into another world or an interesting party as the entertainers juggle or do stuff along the piers and walk ways before the show. read more
