"Highly recommend Floating Lotus! Had meals delivered for my family that were delicious and loved by the whole family. The owner also taught a cooking class for my daughter and some friends that was such a great experience. Great teacher and she helped my daughter to grow in her love of cooking. Highly recommend!"
