After walking down an entry hall, diners find themselves in a stylized version of a Boba, where families and communities have gathered to eat, sing, and tell stories for generations.
A Unique Setting
The dining area itself is a celebration of animals and nature, which come to life through lighting and special effects.
Finally, a magical wall of windows displays rotating scenes of sunrises and sunsets throughout the meal.
