I was there over the weekend, i asked a table if seats were taken and after overhearing that the seats were not taken, some tiong aunties from the next table and snatch them away when I was obviously looking for 2 chairs. If these are the kind of inconsiderate selfish tiongs without basic courtesy and manners neighbour that you have to share your facilities with next time, good luck.
In the long run, I think PRC looks very promising
