Nah, it's not that intense in person. The photos definitely amplify the architectural lines. It's impressive, sure, modern and sleek... but "unsettlingly perfect"? Maybe a slight exaggeration. I got more of a "wow, this is really well-designed" vibe than a "dystopian sci-fi nightmare" one. You'll probably be fine. Just go and enjoy the architecture; it's a pretty cool building.

Their "medium" is pretty darn spicy. I'd say it's a solid 7/10 on the spice scale, maybe an 8 if you're sensitive. I'm usually pretty good with heat, and even I found it a bit much. If you're a lightweight, seriously consider the mild. The chilli crab is still amazing even without the scorching heat. You'll still get that delicious flavour bomb, just without the impending doom of fiery death. Enjoy your meal!
