This was my third attempt to give this place a chance and I guess this was it. These guys use three simple ingredients in all their foods, soy, vinegar and lots of chilli sauce.
Beef tataki: was ordered as a starter and came at the end with the desert. Tataki which was supposed to be thinly sliced had no taste but was dipped in sour vinegar which made it impossible to eat- 3/100
Chowmein: soaked in soy sauce and the noddles and chicken had no taste, oh cuz it was soaked in soy sauce - 4/100
Thai beef salad: now this particular item is one of my favorite meals! I can have this from anywhere, every day cuz it’s top of my fav food item list! THIS SAD EXCUSE for a beef salad had no taste of vinaigrette and IN FACT was drenched in some local chilly sauce. I mean fine beef salads can be spicy and tangy but this was literally soaked in chilli sauce and the meat itself had no taste (major disappointment) - 0/100
Now to top it off, ppl have tried steamed rice, garlic rice, vegetable fried rice, egg fried rice etc, we got introduced to a new one the makhi fried rice and it was In the middle and not moving! Perhaps the lil ol makhi had a taste of that beef salad and passed. May the departed soul rest in peace! Upon summoning the manager his golden words were ‘sir akar baith gai hogi’ 🤦🏼♂️ Jee apni Ami ka rishta mangnay ae thi aur baith gai hogi baja farmaya.
I don’t mean to downplay anyone’s effort here but I do hope they up their game cuz this was a strike three for me! Cocochan, time for a Cocoban

Cocochan IS A NO NO FOR LIFE
Have you ever had EXTRA SALTY SUSHI and then you are told “oh it’s the soy sauce” and then; every other thing served have heaps of salt? Like we literally felt sick after eating the red curry, and chowmein and had to return all other mains cuz they were just inedible?
On top of that? THE ATTITUDE AND AUDACITY OF THE SERVERS and Manager was deplorable. Instead of being sorry, they were dismissive and disrespectful and when we asked for the bill, it took them about 20 plus mins to process it, that too only when we got up to leave?!
Cocochan IS A NO NO FOR LIFE. it’s bad. It’s sad and it’s inedible.
