    I used to work at MoC when I was trying to peruse a career in cooking. It’s good to see most of the people I worked with are still there and I can see couple of kitchen assistants has made it into the kitchen as well. They have so much passion in serving good food and its a great place to fine dine with other options apart from crab. Been in Australia for 6 year and hoping to go their when I get back.

      In my opinion they shouldn’t be allowed to copy mark weins because he is the inventor.
      There’s even a dude who has the audacity to call his channel “the best food review show” hahahah that Jake Paul wannabe will never be as good as mark weins.
