Everything was great, especially the chicken and the mushroom soup. I highly recommend them. However, the noodle dish tasted a bit like yakisoba and AmEx is not accepted here.

It’s a shopping center.

It's a nice museum, and admission is completely free. However, because it's free, there are too many people, even during weekdays. The collections are diverse, ranging from paintings and ceramics to calligraphy, silverware, stamps, and more. It's very educational.

They have various spices, herbs, and even Liberica coffee trees at the garden.

There wasn't much to see at the exhibition. Many of the award winning designs were not on display, which was disappointing. Instead, some of the walls were covered with design concept presentation prints, requiring visitors to read through numerous display boards.
As a visual person, I had hoped to see the real objects (or at least 3D models) rather than just reading about them.
Some of the displayed products were not in a working state, making it difficult to assess their functionality and performance. For instance, none of the lighting fixtures were turned on, so it was impossible to determine their design quality. Design should always prioritize function, so seeing non-functional light fixtures felt like looking at mere dummies.
Despite the positive reviews this place had received, I was somewhat disappointed as it didn't meet my expectations.
